I hope this posts (I can only make 5 per day for some unknown reason, and I think I have one or two left)...
Many people don't remember their dreams ... I don't remember a lot of mine, just feel the effects when I awake.
But my old therapist(s) would say "That's completely normal."
: )

. It may interest you to know that these type of dreams are significant to people who are very deep thinkers & tend to feel the pain of others suffering.
Yes, that is very interesting. Thank you, and I need to research - I haven't done any on dreams for a long time.
EDIT: sheesh, the guts of my post disappeared again ,,, will try to recall what I said ......
I've had night terrors since I was a small child, along with sleepwalking. In some of my dreams, I'm being chased down, or someone is breaking into my home. Others are fragments of memory, which used to wake me up yelling at times, and be shaken all day. Nothing seems to help me get rid of my bad dreams, and haha, one time I woke up with a smashed toe and didn't remember stubbing my foot (yes, in my apartment, I was sleepwalking and hard to believe, did not wake up, but split my toe like a ripe tomato!).
**Okay that was the essence of my comment ...must be demunz in the forum! lol!
Now, I take a medication that suppresses my dreams, and allows me to rest, but I would sure love to sleep au naturel, in a manner of speaking. : P

its been a couple of weeks since a new c.o.
was appointed to the circuit and im starting to hear tidbits of his talks..
one brother told me that in one of his talks he asked the question; .
To answer the OP's questions: No, No, and a big YES!
I did a little 'research' and found an interesting article "This Is Our Place of Worship", and the section "Providing and Financing Kingdom Halls TM", seems to confirm what you are saying. Here's just a smidgeon.
Watchtower TM July 2015, study edition
The work of designing, building, and remodeling them is handled by unpaid volunteers. What has been the result? Since November 1, 1999, more than 28,000 beautiful new centers of pure worship have been provided for congregations worldwide. That means that during the last 15 years, on average, five new Kingdom Halls have been provided every day of the year.
And one more small excerpt from the article:
Many brothers and sisters have experienced great joy in being able to participate in Kingdom Hall construction. Whether we can help out on a building site or not, all of us can have the privilege of supporting such projects through our donations.
Hmmm,,, it appears you are correct, sir!

in a perfect world, one would hope that no woman would need to consider an abortion.
there is unfortunately, no perfect world and there does not seem there will ever be a perfect world.
so consider .... 1. a child rape case in paraguay.. ... but the plot unfolding in paraguay is so dark and twisted that it is currently tearing the south american country apart.it began on april 21 when a mother brought her 10-year-old daughter to a public hospital.
Is this the photo you were posting, FTS? : )

i am a dyed in the wool carnivore.
i suffer from cheese addiction.
lobsters are mercilessly boiled alive.. but after watching this new documentary called cowspiracy on netflix, all that may change.
Marmot - let's fuggetabout "Greenpeace'. It's become a behemoth, and anyone who is really 'into' activism knows that about 90% of their dollars goes into advertising. They sold out a long time ago.
Most activists WILL tell you to try and observe the "100-mile diet" and eat meat that is raised on a small, local farm vs a factory farm. That, as well as having solar cells for energy.
Also, I think it's about 70% of the water that's used by the manufacturing process - so the recommendation is to avoid conspicuous consumerism - such as - use things until they wear out. Do you really NEED a new (fill in the blank), or are you buying the new one because if 'feels good'?
Yes, the mainstream focuses on fossil fuels, but there is much more to it.

Oh, the food shortage? AHAHAHAHAHA! If we actually ATE the food that is thrown out by grocery food chains, the world would be fed. FACT.
An apt comparison, and quite chilling.
As far as the name of the child - I do not speak those names, just as I do not speak the name of John Lennon's murderer, nor any other despicable person who seeks notoriety. Why give him what he WANTS? (that's just my opinion, and meant as food for thought)

let's review: it's a cult!.
allrighty--got thinking about it in this thread.
isn't it odd that, of all things, that isn't on the list of df offenses?
Attend meeting, and when they approach you ...
You could tell them you have been consulting a spirit board for quite some time, and have welcomed Satan into your heart.
He has instructed you to come back to the meetings so that you can share the REAL truth - that the OCCULT is the true religion. For the past 6 months, you hold Black Mass weekly, and wish to share these truths with your Brothers and Sisters at the KH.
Jesus was a False Prophet, and Lucifer, Lord of Light, is the true Saviour of all Mankind!
Then, lower your head slightly, make your eyes roll back like Nicholson in The Shining, and say in a deep voice, "Listen to ME, I am the MESSENGER!" Then bare your teeth and hiss.
jw governing body claims to be the faithful slave.
did you know how (in sworn testimony during the recent australian royal commission hearing) governing body member geoffrey jackson responded to the question, do you see yourselves as jehovahs spokespeople on earth?.
jackson replied, that, i think, would seem to be quite presumptuous to say that we are the only spokesperson that god is using.. really?

Jackson replied, “That, I think, would seem to be quite presumptuous to say that we are the ‘only spokesperson’ that God is using.”
Really? Was he being truthful and honest when he replied that way?
{bold is mine}
Q1. Yes, he was being truthful in the strictest sense, because he completely dodged the question. So, technically, or perhaps legalistically, he did not 'lie'.
Q2. No, he was not being honest. His evasive reply was completely dishonest, and a clear attempt to subvert the truth..
(EDIT: And *poof* .... once again, half my reply disappears...... hmm, do I have a '# of characters limit' now? haha)
Now, what did I type?
Oh, yes, Theocratic Warfare - that's what they call it, but really, it's protecting the corporation at any cost. That is what a Board of Directors (in this case, they call themselves the Governing Body) does. I don't know if they are legally a BofD, but they act like one.

science can explain how of things, but it cannot explain why of certain things (for example, why did life arise from non-life and evolved from simpler creatures to more complex life forms only to die and disappear?
) so are the conflicted religions whose chief concern is in safeguarding each ones separate identity..
next option is to look for pearls among the stonesusing power of our own reason.
Uhh, I was most likely studying science when you were in diapers.
Quite frankly, I am sickened by your relentless masturbatory punishing of all those who don't seem to measure up to your intellectual-superiority yardstick.
I'm not interested in taking you on, and haha, your comment above, clearly shows how you enjoy twisting the point. I do not need to twist anyone's words to get my point across, as I seek no gratification from my postings here.
Perhaps you should try your intellect out in places that would be more challenging? But I guess it would be hard to give this up, since you can play with words better than most people on this forum.
Take care, "V", and remember that not everyone is fooled by your 'faux intellectualism". TSK TSK
You have a plethora of people here, on which you can exercise your own brand of dominance. I just wanted to note, that your abuses do not pass without note.
Indeed.

I've faced/beaten death (however you want to look at it) about 1/2 dozen times. I've also been in agonizing pain for years ......... trust me, I do not fear death. It's the suffering that comes before death, that is to be feared, if anything. Ever been tortured? hmmm.
