Update Regarding How The May 1 QFR Is "Playing" In The Congregations
by Justitia Themis ini have been emailing with a sister in my congregation regarding the qfr.
i told her i wasn't discussing it with most jws, because i didn't want to hear any of their "new light" garbage.
i told her this isn't new light; this just means that what we paraded out in 1935 as "new light" was wrong.. she sheepishly (no pun intended) agreed.

US SUPREME COURT RULED AGAINST PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTIONS
by juni inand i say thank god that this abhorrent practice is not legal any longer.. i don't feel rowe vs. wade (the right of a women to an abortion) should be banned, but definitely partial birth abortions should be.. am i for willy nilly abortion?
but if there were ever a situation say a woman's health was in jeapordy i feel she should have the right to a legal ending of her pregnancy.. for those that choose abortion as a means of birth control or some other lame reason, i believe that is wrong.. how do you feel?.

Count-Down 5: Spiritual Orgasmic Fantasies !
by Amazing in15-years ago today, i was 40-years old.
my wife was 39, my kids were 20, 18, 16, and 14. we were in our exit process to be completed by july 1992. i gave my last talk as a jw, the memorial talk.
i resigned the following sunday, giving up my position as public talk coordinator, and never returned again ... except for a funeral, a wedding, and one last memorial a year later (i didn't want to go, but i attended as a favor to one kind jw.).

I scammed a Craigslist scammer!
by moshe ini had a dresser for sale on craigslist and as so often occurs some guy wants to buy it and have his shipper pick it up- i emailed him and told him that craigslist says he had the m-o of a crook.. he emails me back and say he is still interested and will pay the fullprice, so i changed the emailed header from re: dresser $55 to re: dresser $955 and emailed back was he ok with the price and how did he want to pay for it.
his english has the syntax of someone who uses it as a 2nd language- he never saw or the mentioned the price change i did!.
so, true to form he was going to send me a cashiers check - for $3000 and i was to keep out my money and then send a western union mailgram for the difference to the shipper in a city 300 miles away- .

by so doing, and having of course a full knowledge of the doctrines and practices they employ, you have a special opportunity!
you can use the study for the following;.
