  How do we set up a "Used New Bike Fund" for Terry?

  by BucketShopBill in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is there any way we can try to start a crowd-fund to help terry get some wheels quicker than he currently can?

  with craigslist and a couple of bucks from a few members we can help terry get moving.

  does anyone have any ideas how we can do a "theists for terry" bike fund raiser and challenge the atheists to a bucket-head challenge?

  I just clicked forward from page one to page three and found the bickering. I CANNOT BELIEVE an effort as simple as helping a guy like Terry replace his bicycle has turned into yet another JWN hornets’ nest of negativity and childish tantrums.

  Or, maybe I should have expected it the moment Terry told his story.

  Simon, please instruct the children to be seated and allow this effort to move forward.

  What is the best advise you have ever been given?

  awhile a go i was uptight about a matter i can't remember now and my friend said to me " give the other side the victory".

  a while ago my little boy was getting uptight and argumentative with his mum i asked him " to let it go" in effect i suppose " giving the other side the victory".

  anyway i am sure our life exsperiences have allowed us both receive and give good advice.

  The world on the other had really does not seem to give a dam.

  They just don't give a click.

  And of the non-JW visitors who, out of curiosity, go there to see what it is, they notice that god-awful JEHOVAH'S WITNESS scrip at the top of the page and break half a dozen fingernails trying to click outta there.

  gb member and so called "annointed" person geoffry jackson is caught red handed on video doing some worldly dancing and sexual gyrating (they have spoken against such manner of dancing on several occasions) with a woman who is not his wife!!!

  2. friends

  i'm giving 3 examples of this practice--that i know of personally.. .

  my first wife--born in--divorced me over 30 years ago.

  she totally shuns our son--now 38--d/f'd and now happily married and enjoying life to the max.. my pioneer partner--from the mid 60's-----he totally shuns his daughter---to the point of even ignoring her in the street.. a close friend of mine--in the 60's and 70's-----i was best man at his wedding.

  Silly Girl, give yourself a hug. That's from me.

  It just doesn't make sense. I used to shun an uncle when I was a kid because that is what I was told to do. Honestly, I didn't give any thought to what it might be doing to him or the fact that I and the rest of the family were erasing any hope of ever having a relationship with him later.

  Now I'm the one being shunned and I really think THEY THINK everything will be just dandy again after I get reinstated. Not only will that not happen because I will never go back, even if they were to leave the org. and pursue me...

  ... request denied.

  Poster with basic math on shunning - for JW parents

  your thoughts on such a poster?.

  (http://religions.pewforum.org/reports says: "jehovah's witnesses have the lowest retention rate of any religious tradition.

  only 37% of all those who say they were raised as jehovah's witnesses still identify themselves as jehovah's witnesses.").

  Jehovah’s Witnesses in USA - prefer a bigger government providing more services and involved in regulating morality.

  jehovahs witnesses in usa - prefer a bigger government providing more services and involved in regulating morality .. interesting that jehovahs witnesses who don't vote, even got on this graph.. " what are the political positions of religions and churches in america?.

  this new graph maps the ideologies of 44 different religious groups using data comes from pews religious landscape survey.. this survey included 32,000 respondents.

  it asked very specific questions on religion that allow us to find out the precise denomination, church, or religion of each person.. .

  a watcher: What JW's most prefer is that the government keep the peace "in order that we may go on leading a calm and quiet life with full godly devotion and seriousness."

  I find your statement disingenuous and further proof that JWs want a bunch of crap but are unwilling to lift a finger to get it.

  You cite 1 Timothy 2:1,2: " First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life..."

  I was a JW for many years and I never once heard a prayer or intercession from a single JW on behalf of a king or president. I guess even in that regard it's better to mooch off the efforts of others.

  Obviously all those helping people ARE already JWs. Nobody else on the planet would show such qualities.

  "Evidently."

  Helping stranded motorists, fallen old men, and walking old ladies across the street is no way to make God happy. Advertising a website... now THAT puts a smile on God's face and you will be rewaded with eternal life and dead men's mansions.
