my b&q party
by varian inas a jw, i invited about 15 brothers to my garden party for a b&q.. we had a long table outside on the lawn for everyone to sit to.. just about as the meals were to be served, the guy in charge for the grill, whipered in my ear, that brother elder will do the thanks prayer before we start to eat.. at that time i didn t know how to respond, i just let him do it.
but thinking back as being the host of the do, i could of reacted in a different manner.
something like: "oh, so your prayers have more inpact than mine then, because you re the elder here, and i m just the stupid dickhead host?".

what did the jews believe about life after death?
by varian injws say, that they believed in the resurection of the dead on earth.
but i can t remember reading such a bible quote.
although i think mary said something about a resurection at the end of times...whatever that meant.. are there bible scriptures in the old testament which support such a believe?.

counting time (2)
by varian ini know i m a simple mind, but if 3 jws study with a jw-child or someone else for an hour, they ll all report there own time, which will add up to 3 hours, right?
but the real netto time spent for the study is obviously 1 hour, no matter how many jws took part.
am i seeing a mathimatical fault?.

elders would like a talk with me
by varian inhi everyone.. i recently had a phone call from an elder of my former cong.
they would like to chat with me, and obviously want to encourage me to come back.. to make a long story short: the last 4 or five years i was a jw in their kh, i was more or less completly ignored.
had in that time no phone calls, visits or any interest how i felt etc.

do single jw live ascetic?
by varian init s often not imaginable for me, to think that single jws live a life of abstinence.
i mean at the end of the day we are all humans with desires and wishes.
most singles are not trained to be like monks from tibet or stuff.. so what s the secret behind it?
