For Your Eyes Only

by Outaservice in

this is not jw related but will help you read the 'posts' if you are getting a little older and your eyesight isn't what it used to be.

if you press the 'ctrl' key on your keyboard and rotate the little wheel on your mouse, it will enlarge the print on your computor screen.

i didn't know that before and found out by accident.

eschatological expectancy causes tiredness

by stillajwexelder in

an elder confesssed to me the other week that they had an elders meeting and the topic was rasied about how tired the brothers were.

he said "quite frankly, the brothers expected armageddon a long time ago and they are just exhausted".

i then enquired of him "do you think the wtbts keeping us in a permanent state of eschatological expectancy causes strain and stress and tiredness - he said yes.

my whole family exited in the 70's. however, i did freak out a bit after 9/11 and went to my mother asking her about armageddon...does she still think it is coming...does she still think we are in last days...etc. my mother just kind of shrugged her shoulders and said, "well WE thought it was coming in the '40's during the war." yes, it is exhausting,

JonBenet Ramsey's Mother Dies

by Mary in

.

i was really shocked to see this headline this morning....patsy ramsey died this morning at the age of 49 of ovarian cancer....i always wondered what happened there; whether she and her husband actually killed their daughter, or if someone else broke into the house and murdered her.......while family members are always high on the list of suspects when something like this happens, i tend to think that john and patsy ramsey were falsely accused of murdering their daughter, as there appeared to be no motive.

anyone think they did kill her?

i don't think they/she/he did it.

funny how i allways read these threads about how people say the jws just stopped by and think how goofy it all is.

well, as i was sitting here at home watching amazon fishbowl with bill maher a knocking came at the door.

well wouldn't you know it was some jws from another congregation (i don't live in the territory of the cong.

don't you think that part of it is they just don't REALLY want to talk to you? they are ill-equipped to answer questions out of line from what is rote? they don't really understand what they believe?

i spoke with a well placed, highly responsible brother some weeks ago, who didn't care for my opinions about corruption "from the.

bottom all the way to the top" in the organization.

he defended the society against every accusation i made but was stopped short by one.

Shocking Announcement: Society feels Armaggedon coming this year?

by truthseeker in

a rumor alert indeed, but it could be related to the distribution of kingdom news no.37, "false religions end is near.".

the following is posted from e-watchman's forum.. make of it what you will, but in light of all the rhetoric about "deliverance at hand" and "independent thinking", nothing would surprise me anymore.. http://e-jehovahs-witnesses.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1502&st=0 we posted about an announcement it was only local to our cong.

however we have found out that there is going to be an announcement sometime in september and it is supposed to be shocking.
