unreasonable nit-picking by witnesses!
by Richie inhow many of you have had experiences where elders and others in the congregation presented and even pushed their own viewpoints on matters which should be left to each person's own conscience.. we are all aware of the frowns and negative opinions on the way we sometimes dressed; one elder commented on my tie as it was too bright - i once bought a pretty ornament which had a pyramid shape, afterwards a sister said that i should not have this in my house (she did not know precisely why...but sort of felt it was wrong!).
we got a few frowns when we had a wind chime, but at least there we did some research on and told the individual to mind his own business.. how many of you know the "demon inspired" proctor & gamble sign, which prompted many witnesses to abstain from purchasing any p & g products.
how silly!

First time researching the WT organisation
by oscartheduck ini've not researched the organisation before in any true level of detail.. i left it about eight months back, after coming to my own conclusions regarding the accuracy of lots of things it has released.
i simply believed that it was no longer printing anything worthwhile, really.
it had contradicted itself too many times.. i was brought up in the religion, and was baptised at 14, and afterwards stayed in it for three years.

Oral Sex is Good for You!.....Official!
by ISP indaily mirror december 20th!.
pregnant women can reduce the risk of life threatening high blood pressure - by practising oral sex.
researchers have discovered that oral sex allows a mother-to-be to develop protection against an allergic reaction to sperm which causes pre-eclampsia, a condition which kills an average 600 babies and 10 mothers in the uk every year.. dr. louise kenny, who specialises in the condition, says"normally something happens in pregnancy which allows the woman to accept sperm, but in some cases rejects it, which results in her developing dangerously high blood pressure.

Study 16th December
by BluesBrother inone part of the watchtower study really got my goat!.
i know its not original thinking but , paragraph 17 of study article said .
"jehovah's longsuffering is lasting longer than some have anticipated, however that is no reason to give up, to do so would be tantamount to criticizing god for being longsuffering".

The elusive Brother Some.

they usually call him some.
we receive constant reassurances from the watchtower that what is printed in the literature is the truth.
