Hey JH, are you offering to share your beer with us?
I could use more. I'm on my last one.

my friend mary told me about this site.
she told me how much she enjoyed it, so i've finally taken the baptismal plunge, and here i am.
now mary can count this as a bible study.
brummie, do you count your time while you're on coffee break too????
Doesn't everyone? I used to start counting my time as soon as I started putting my suit on. I'd stop counting my time when I got home from the bar.

Welcome to the forum. Always nice to get more Canadians here.

anyone here master the art of pressing in the doorbell without really pressing it?
how about knocking where it seems loud on the outside, but you know it can't be heard on the inside.
or standing at a door for up to 5 minutes when you know nobody was there.
Find a like minded brother? and arrange to do return visits? directly from the service arrangement?. Then go directly to your favorite restaurant or bar.

it's refreshing to know that we can say negative things about what we know is wrong about the society, governing body, local elders, the "brotherhood", in general------and not get censured or punished for it......i'll start.------- the organization is run more like the scribes and pharisees than jesus and his disciples.
christ reached out to everyone.
the scribes and pharisees treated everyone else like they were inferior, "worldly", not good enough.
Say Something Bad About The JW Organization
They exist.
Also they take their breaks at Tim Hortons much too early. By the time I get there all the good donuts are gone.

lets say you were inactive, and an elder came over to encourage you, and he saw that you have a computer, would you let him near it?
Any suggestions as to how we can look on our comps to see if we have them?
The program I used is called WinWhatWhere. If you're using windows NT, 2000, or XP you can bring up the task manager and go to the processes tab. If you see a process called w3.exe there's a good chance it's on your system.
Here's more info on it:

There are other products that do this but I'm not familiar with them.

So they would have to have actually be on the comp to find out what was typed.
There are some keystroke monitoring packages that will send out a stealth email at predetermined intervals with an attachment containing the captured keystrokes, mouseclicks, etc. Some of them can be installed from remote locations as well. I've had to use some of these at work.

yes....people can be demonized, houses, and animals.
well, cuz you can tell by the physical features.
a person who's demonizes has a certain look according to the dubs.
many new ones don't know what a demonized person looks like since there's no pictures of them in the literature
That's why new ones? should make sure they're with an experienced publisher?, pioneer?, or elder? before checking out garage sales during Saturday service?.

I don't let anyone near my computer. No disks of any kind get inserted into my computer unless I own them.
It's too easy to install keystroke monitoring software on a computer. An elder is the last person I'd permit to be in the same room with my computer. I never accepted emails from them either.

7 ?for nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be food shortages and earthquakes in one place after another.
8 all these things are a beginning of pangs of distress.
9 ?then people will deliver you up to tribulation and will kill you, and you will be objects of hatred by all the nations on account of my name.
I find it hard to believe that only people with the intellect of a MENSA candidate, are clever enough and smart enough to figure out the "mystery" of the "truth" and thus get to live forever. The "creator" either should have made us smarter or His "message" more clear.
Exactly. One would think that an "omnipotent" creator would have sufficient communication skills so as to make his purposes known to all in a clear and concise manner. But after so many centuries of stupidly groping through the bible people still can't agree on what exactly it means.
If I displayed such communication skills in my workplace my ass would be fired out of here so fast my head would spin.
