Did you count the time for your "hour talk"?

by compound complex in

hi fellow speakers (sorry, brothers only!):.

my first public talk, given in my early 20s, was actually a twenty-minute part of a symposium talk.

my pioneer partner friend and i each had twenty minutes and a "servant" had the concluding part.

Why did God test Abraham?

by jws in

when jws come around with their articles asking "is god cruel?

", i often point them to genesis 22:2:.

2 then god said, take your son, your only son, whom you loveisaacand go to the region of moriah.

Aroq: God knows before hand everything

So then...Jehovah knew the outcome of what would happen in the garden of Eden?

**if so then he's an evil pos..! he should not be worshiped, he should be ashamed and ask for forgiveness. Then make it right!

It now appears to me that these are all stories made up by humans to control others! F-them

I survived a 3-hour manipulation session with 2 elderettes!

by Faithful Witness in

i'm not sure how else to describe this meeting at my kitchen table.

my elderette ("miss k") arrived with her friend in tow.

i vaguely remember the 2nd lady ("miss w") from the times we went to the kh, but like miss k, we never really talked in depth.

Terry:

Stick with the question: HOW did the FDS come up with things that needed to be changed?

Stick with the question: Where does old light come from?

Stick with the question: Why demand loyalty to something that changes

---------------------

Excellent question...so simple yet a powerful one.

two jws came to my door today and i dropped a few truths bombs on them.

Well done!

Now we see why education or reading anything other than the WT produced material is all but prohibited.

Watch The Following...This is the "best" way to live! Or die

Should we Be in control of our own mind or let others control it?...its a decision that is taken from most that are born in or caught when in vulnerable situations.

Do you frown upon tattoos?

by confusedandalone in

i am very interested in hearing from people who really think that people with tattoos are somehow weird or cagey individuals.

i would just like to get your outlook on this matter.

today i was in a grocery store and i sawe this guy with his two kids and his wife shopping.

NotNew

No! however use with caution.

I have the underside of wrists done with two tattoos each...kanji Symbols.

On one: truth / freedom the other is Wisdon / knowledge

Truth/freedon repesents " the truth will set you free...

Wisdom/Knowledge:information and wisdom=discernment

So if anyone ask what they say/represent I reply....the truth will set me free...however I can't be free without "informatiom-knowledge" then I need the "wisdom" to decren if the information is true or not....at that time I hope I can truely be free...

This is all information...past, present, and future.

They are a reminder to me to Never have my mind controlled by an individual or group (religious or otherwise) again!

just another example of this world power fading away.

while the us desperately tries to start wars in syria, iran and the ukraine, china ignores it all and keeps getting stronger.

DJS who the F are u...?

Who do you think ur talking to?

You “leave me amused and annoyed.”

So why don't you just LEAVE...or at least shut the F up when you feel like being an *ss!

Instead try writing your thoughts down...then read them...then edit all the condescending BS out!

*Thanks metatron for your thoughts

court rejects missionary lawsuit against netanya schools for voiding leasethe tel aviv magistrates court has rejected a claim by a missionary group, saying that the school they had been renting space in unlawfully voided their contract , and asking the court to instruct the school to pay nis 108,000 in compensation and mental anguish, as well as legal expenses.. it began when a missionary group, via a non-profit organization called "mitzpe l'yisrael", rented space at the raziel school in netanya to conduct daily afternoon activities.

shortly after signing the rental agreement , the school authorities discovered that the group was, in reality, the notorious missionary sect of "jehovah's witnesses".
