  How to capitalise on recent unwise appointment with my wife.

  a brother was appointed recently in the cong, he's got a dodgy history, doesn't really have the respect of many in the cong.

  it's surprising to me, but i don't really care, good for him.

  my wife, on the other hand, is angry!

  Positive facebook posts and who 'likes' them.

  i've been conducting a little experiment.

  if i post funny things on my facebook timeline, or interesting things, all my jw friends comment, like, share etc.. .

  without fail though, (so far) , if i post something humanitarian, something charitable, some local interest good news story about the community coming together as one, it's very rare for any of my witness friends to 'like', comment, or share.

  i know this is going to come up in a conversation shortly, how would you respond to this?

  i've had it said to me before, specifically about health, one week wine/eggs/milk/axle grease is good for you, next week it's not..

  i'm just bored.

  i'm currently (right now) running a mic up and down the aisles, recognising the faulty logic, one line platitudes, and indoctrination techniques.

  i like posting while on active duty.

  Small (tiny) victories

  i had a conversation with my wife today about child abuse as it's in the news, and i managed to slip in the fact that wt (not an individual, but the .org itself) has just been ruled against in the states to the tune of 13 million or so.

  she knows i'm opposed to the procedures we have in place, and she can definitely see that it makes sense to go straight to the police, and said she would do immediately if it were our children.

  we had a fairly local case where the elders positively marched the offender to the station themselves, and good for them for doing so, but she most likely thinks everyone would do that out of common sense.

  Oh, the irony.

  today i was sat in a car full of jaydubs on the way home from the circuit assembly, and the discussion turned to halloween and how to avoid trick or treaters!.

  seriously, there was talk of pulling curtains shut across front doors and how disgusting it was that parents let their children knock on doors , and how annoying it is to get a knock on the door knowing it's an uninvited person!

  had to bite my tongue... .

  ALIENS!! (and the downfall of religion)

  by disposable hero of hypocrisy in

  let me clarify, when i say aliens, i don't mean shiny helmeted spaceship dwelling anal probers.

  (although i could be proved wrong).

  if any alien lifeform was found on mars or another planet or even a comet, be it tiny bacteria or even some form of non carbon based life form, would that not destroy religions grip on mankind?

  i apologise for the large paste i'm about to do, but if you knew exactly where i am right now you'll understand i don't have the luxury of editing.. .

  it's an interesting slice of wt history, and could be of use to anyone with the achan talk this week... .

  is it just me or have they modelled 'joseph in the prison hole' on cedars and added a homoerotic element to it?

  the GOOD NEWS thread..

  by disposable hero of hypocrisy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  since the spin we get from the wt and from the platform is very one sided, always banging on about how terrible the world is and how it's never been worse and mankind is going to hades in a handcart, how's about a good news thread?

  i don't know about you guys but i try to share the good stuff as much as possible, because i feel it un-demonises 'worldly' people, helps witnesses see its not cut and dry, black and white, us and them.

  there are millions of decent hardworking charitable people out there trying to make a difference for the community at large.
