while in service on saturday, i was sitting with an elder that i have known for years having a coffee break.
we were discussing the up-coming convention and what we had to do etc.
then, (there was a tv up on the wall in the coffee place where we were) on the screen burst the news of the nepal earthquake.
They (JW) had a field day when the San Fernando California earthquake hit.
Why, because it was the year of 1971, four more years before your neighbors,
family, children, over 6 billion people are fried. The KH was filled at the next
meeting. This is a sign we are definitely in the last days and I believed that crap.
do jehovahs witnesses assist with disaster relief in nepal?.
http://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/assist-with-disaster-relief/.
what say ye?.
They provide toilet paper, kindling and insulation , their mags.
That's something.
so where did god exist before he created the heavens?
As one preacher said "He was preparing hell for people who ask
this question."
in 1986, peter davies was on holiday in kenya after graduating from louisiana state university .. .
on a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air.
the elephant seemed distressed, so peter approached it very carefully.
tick skin "the ability to withstand criticism and show no signs of any.
criticism you may receive getting to you".
did you have a thin skin when.
Yes I feel the same "Criticism hurts" but it's good for you.
It's funny as A JW knocking on doors I was called a lot of names, told
I was bat sh--t crazy, a sale out to my race, I have no idea what I'm talking
about. But what did we do, shake the dust from our shoes and go to the
next door. We did not lose a night sleep.

Tick skin "the ability to withstand criticism and show no signs of any
criticism you may receive getting to you". Did you have a thin skin when
you were a JW or a tick skin. Have your skin got thicker after leaving the borg.LOL
i stole this, from of all places, rick fearon.
i don't know who he stole it from.
please think of more.. things i trust more than the jehovah's witnesses governing body+ the media+ mexican tap water+ cappuccino from bill cosby+ a bigfoot sighting+ a politician who says "trust me"+ an al qaeda who wants flying lessons, but skips landing and take-offs+ a hillary clinton war story+ bill clinton wanting to give a speech at an all-female school+ gas station sushi+ a brian williams or bill o'rielly news report+ email from a nigerian prince.
" a nashville swingers club has undergone a conversion it now says that it is a church in order to win city approval, so that it can open next to a christian school.
" (associated press).
the article explains, "a church is something that cannot be defined under the u.s. constitution"..... wt lawyers explain to the court all of the time; 'you can't interfere with our internal church policies, or you will be infringing on our first amendment rights.
"Their tenets of the church sort of like the Ten Commandment,"said club's
longtime lawyer Larry Roberts. He listed a few "Do not steal. Do not lie. Do not
cheat. Do not commit any act that will be harmful to others. Do not commit
adultery without the knowledge and consent of your spouse".
I like this church. Is it adultery when your spouse give you the OK????
40-50 years after saying "armegeddon is right around the corner" we are now making progress!!!.
gotta have a sense of humor to deal with this stuff..
In my life time I have survived 3 or 4 end of the world. Don't
want to sound like I'm bragging or anything but that is a hell
of a accomplishment.
