Archie Bunker. A reflection of days gone by. A iconic piece of American History. A tad over the top regarding his vision regarding the races. Loved him just the same.

How much do you truly believe you would enjoy living in a perfect world? Paradise...
by stillstuckcruz inwhat sort of conversations could you have in a perfect world?
i have a hard enough time creating conversation in this world.

After giving calculation to the hours of our existence, the best we get out of the the deal is roughly about 25,500 days. That equates to roughly 70 or so years that we get to experience life on this planet. That's a pretty pathetic number. When at first giving thought to the subject, years ago, I wondered how many days do our years number? A million, maybe? I was dumbfounded to some extent when calculating how limited our days really are. We are here, just as Jehovah described. As mist appearing for a little while. An exhalation. Our ability to view time as it relates to Jehovah and eternity are impossibe. How much more so our capacity to properly view our lives in the stream everlasting life?

This, yes, has been truly great medicine for me. A broken mind and a tortured soul. This an oasis in the desert and I thank Jehovah that he has allowed a place like this to care for the sick in head and bitter of soul. As well as Franz, Simon, and the little the little red dot who asks all those wonderfully insightful questions.

Our ability to walk in this world is so hindered due to our imperfection. We don't even use the total capacity for our brains. 1/10th of 1 percent? The world, life as we know it and who knows, maybe having mastery of not just this planet, but space and time. The universe with it countless planets and solar systems. The possibilities are endless.
There is no way to view effectively, any future God-Christ directed life in the world to come with our molecularly limited mentality. Yes it's the "Eye has not seen, nor has it even been thought about" scripture, we have been inculcated with. We as once Jehovah's Witnesses were given a raw deal on much, I do agree. A lot about what's been brought to our attention however, I believe to be the truth. I don't want to die, and if there was a way to do it, and not have carry around this body with its ailments, sin ladened and frustrated, as well as the universe returned to the state that Jehovah intended, then I'm the first one to sign up for it.
Seem a little silly to me that God would create man, merely to allow him to be on the planet a scant few minutes, only to have him disappear into nothingness. Why bother bringing us thru at all. I can't even scratch the surface of the whole "why are we here in this condition" thing. We, even in our so called technologically advanced age, with our smart phones, I-Pads, YOUTUBE, the internet, space flight yadayadayada, are so far behind the times that it just becomes redundant how truly little we as a planet are bathing in our own ignorance.

Hello from NW USA
by Haulin Oats inhey there, gang.. i'm haulin oats.
i came to full awareness recently after finding a work-mate who also had "seen the light" finally.. i was born/raised a jw, having made some pretty big sacrifices in the name of the organization, even moving to where the need was greater before the start of high school.
needless to say, small mid-west farm towns don't look too highly on jw's.

I do find them reasonably attractive, though when the ones at the top of the food chain begin to show their true colors, whatever beauty they initially had goes right out the window.

How Courteous A Driver Are You?
by prophecor ini try to quell my emotions when stuck behind slow drivers.
never knowing that they may be elderly or infirmed people.
i also however try to let others in when there's a road crew ahead and everyone has to pull to one side to get by.

How are your manners while behind the wheel?

Were There/Are There A Number Of Gays At Bethel?
by minimus ini remember the "boy's club" mentality from many of the bethelites in the 70's and 80's.
it seemed there were a number of males who were "effeminate" back in the day.. i knew of one guy that was told by the bethel brass that he would "go places" at headquarters if he could learn to deepen his voice and tone down his gestures a bit (and he was told it wouldn't hurt if he ever married a fellow bethelite sister).
this man was extensively used at conventions, became less "gay looking" and got married.. so my question is, did you see effeminate men in bethel?

The Palm Springs ad that keeps popping up kinda' giving me the kreeps. But, Minimus, really, he was kinda' cool. He was gay, you didn't have to ask as it was blatantly obvious. He had the guts to just stick it in your face and dare you to even question him, or his integrety to Jehovah.
