''i liked it better 2000 years when i preached in synagogues,in the fields,by the sea,in the temples,on mountaintops and valleys.now,i've been reduced to making small talk and handing out leaflets to our summer convention titled,''remain loyal to jehovah.''.
''this stupid convention is 80 miles away,3 full days in the middle of summer,bagging your own lunch,paying for hotel and food,and ''making sure you do not reserve seats.''.
'' i hope no one answers the door.''.
Knock, knock..
Who's there?
Jesus.....
Householder: Open the door. Jesus you are back, Is this the end of days?
Jesus: Not yet, I need to get more hours in the door work, the preaching work hasn't reach everyone, maybe in the next generation...
Householder: WTH , why are you knocking on doors?
Jesus: The GB told me we don't care who you say you are, they told me to grab a cart or knock on some doors you have been demoted. Man, things have changed since I been away..
i do remember reading an article that it is not ok for jw to sell cigarettes at gas stations, etc... i was wondering what about lottery tickets?
they do sell lottery tickets at few restaurants around my home.
if jw works there and rats me out to the elders, i would not give a damn about it but i still prefer not to hear from the elders about it..
Letter to the branch: Brothers I'am DF's and I have two months to live. I would like to leave my assets to the WT organization, a small fortune. Since I'am not in good standing can I be reinstated before I die or will you accept my large offering form a DF's person?...... Letter from the GB: MY Brother!!!!!
i was working today and my brain was working in circles like it often does and i started wondering about what i was always told about people like methuselah in bible times, and their incredibly claims of longevity.
i've tried researching things but have a hard time getting through all of the bible thumpers to some real evidence, and figured that some here may be more informed or have done the research previously.
so, did people really live longer way back when?
Noah was 600 when the flood happened, Methuselah was 600 + 369=969. So he died around the time of the flood or he treaded water for a few days. A stupid story I must say, and I believed these stories..
jws are scattered across the globe.
a few million people left, pretty isolated from each other.. telephone lines and power goes down since the people who supported the infrastructure are dead.
communication across town, state, country, etc is cut off.
cookiemaster: You would need a boat load of brothers from Eastern Europe to find away to come across the Ocean to the USA in order to aid the brothers, if not they will starve. Most of the brothers live in the city and they have no idea how to survive on their own, milk a cow, Please.. They can clean the hell out of a house but when it comes to feeding their family, where is the nearest super market...

It reminds me of the Minister who preached about the evil of playing the lottery, his wife won. His next sermon, how God work in mysterious
ways. Article "The minister's wife and lotto, A little sin pays off for church". Feb.3, 1988 BY Hugh Dellios...LOL

I'am 70 and my ass is worn-out......I bet you they didn't have Viagra in those days, can you imagine two 500 year old engaged in sex, I would hate to think about it......Mom and Dad please we don't need any more brothers and sisters, hell our baby brother age is 200.. Don't you think enough is enough, we only live in a two bed room shotgun shack and one out door toilet.
