What's for breakfast on Easter morning?
by Finally-Free ini always have pretty good breakfasts on weekends.
eggs, omelets, bacon, sausages, home fries, waffles, pancakes, etc., but i'm in a rut and getting bored with it all.. i'm home alone so i want something a little different, just so it feels like a holiday.
i suppose i could gorge on chocolate bunnies for breakfast, but it's probably not a good idea since i'm diabetic.. so what are all you guys having?

I got my wish! No invitation to the Memorial!
by lavendar inmy family member invited me last year....and i attended, just to show good faith, and to be nice.
afterwards, i posed some honest, but hard questions to him regarding the wts.
i know he went to his gurus for the answers, b/c he couldn't answer them himself.. this year...no invite.

Did You Like Being Told What To Do When You Were A Witness?
by minimus ini think many jws enjoy not having to think, make crucial decisions or dwell on what life is all about.. it's much easier to follow orders and be a "sheep".. when you were a witness, were you independent or did you feel most comfortable being in the middle of the pack?.

Scriptures that fit the GB to a tee
by isaacaustin inmatt 15:8-9. this people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me.
but in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.. matt 23:2-6. saying, the scribes and the pharisees sit in moses' seat: all therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, [that] observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.
for they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay [them] on men's shoulders; but they [themselves] will not move them with one of their fingers.

12 ex-JWs at church yesterday...
by passwordprotected inas reported elsewhere on the forum, there were 12 ex-jws at our baptism service yesterday.
twelve.. it was quite an experience to hear about an ex-jw who had moved to another part of the country and had written down 150 names of jws in the area of glasgow she was originally from and had started praying for all those names last summer.
two of the people on her list were at the church yesterday, with their wives and children.
