  do you think it's bad?

  I am more worried about tobacco and alcohol. Though driving while smoking tobacco is less dangerous than driving under the influence of pot

  Why Do Americans Live Shorter Lives Yet Spend So Much for Health Care ???

  by RubaDub in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  every time i see statistics comparing average lifespans amoung countries, why is the usa so far down the list???.

  with susposedly the best healthcare in the world (for those who can afford it), the last study i saw ranked the usa at number 38 in the world.

  yet, we spend 4, 5 or even 10 times more per person on health care than most others.. what gives ???.

  Food portions are too huge

  Everything (Drive Throughs) is geared to car not to exercise

  When you get your healthcare bill (even with insurance) - it gives you a f----ng heart attack

  Is regularly texting/phoning someone (not your partner) cheating?

  by sacdfan in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hello - can i ask you all for your opinions?.

  if your partner (husband/wife, gf/bf etc) was phoning and texting someone approx 20 times per day,would you find it unacceptable?

  for example, if your wife was texting/phoning another brother (also married) 20 to 30 times a day, would you get suspicious?

  Watchtower cleans out Kingdom Hall Library's ...

  by RR in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  last night i got a call from a chap in the uk, who recently left the jw's.

  he wanted to compare notes with his us counterparts.. he said that a few years ago, (i think about 2 years ago) the society cleaned out all the literature from every kingdom hall, particularly russell and rutherford books and anything prior to 1950. giving each hall a computer with the watchtower cd rom for them to use for research.

  he wanted to know if the same was done in the states.

  Mill Hill Disfellowshippings

  by BorgHater in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a few months ago there was a thread about a couple of elders at the mill hill bethel being disfellowshipped because they disagreed with some wt doctrine (i can't recall exactly what it was) and that several other betheliteswere under 'investigation'.

  i haven't heard anything since, does anyone know anything more about this?.
