What about only the father knowing the hour and not even the son or the angels knowing?
Now I am confused

Jehovah Jesus
by hooberus in1 corinthians 8:6 yet to us there is one god, the father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one lord, jesus christ, through whom are all things, and we through him.. .
isaiah 44:24 thus saith jehovah, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb: i am jehovah, that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth (who is with me?);.
isaiah 40:10 behold, the lord jehovah will come as a mighty one, and his arm will rule for him: behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.. .

Marijuana for migraines?
by Odrade inso yesterday i had such bad migraine (with all of its accompanying symptoms...) that i ended up at er for narcotics and re-hydration.
this was after excruciating pain for 7-8 hours thinking "just a little more time and it'll easy up.
" wrong.. anyways, they grogged me up with atavan, thorazine and one other i can't recall... and i'm still pretty unsteady on my feet today.

Make a tea? How much do I need for that?
Depends on the strength of the weed.
I used to use double zero (strong resin/solid) and used hmmm .... maybe just under a CM squared. Heated it up with a flame to crumble it and then added boiling water and stirred. Added honey to taste. The effect kicked in after 1 hour and slowly built up.
If you use skunk, just use maybe twice the amount that you use for a roll up and pop it in boiling water and stir. Make sure you consume all of the plant + water. Should have about the same effect.
It's pretty hit and miss taking it this way.
It's worth a shot as a temporary fix to the pain you suffer.

Did you ever get a W (Work needed) on a talk?
by desib77 insomeone mentioned this in one of their posts and i had a flashback.
i remember getting a w on one of my theocratic school talks when i was working on gesturing.

I was one of the few (very few) who refused to do talks. It just didn't sit right with me. Why should I?

The Joy Of Sex..
by Englishman in..is notably absent amongst middle-aged dubs.. maybe the joy of sex was forbidden to them?.
take a peek at the nov 1964 wt study: >>the male sex organs and the female sex organs were to cooperate in fulfilling this god-given command.
thus the sex organs are not playthings to have a lot of fun with, for such fun does not serve the divine purpose.

Ahhh - so that is where that quote comes from about the public towel. A guy I know quoted that at me as if it were his own saying and I thought he had dreamed that little "nugget of joy" up himself.
Hehe - got him, hook, line and sinker
You wait until he mentions that again. I should have guessed that he was quoting The Watchtower.

Have others given up trying to communicate their feelings?
by Celtic ini don't think i'll be listened to any more, my story is not worth telling, it is too complex, it causes me too much sadness to try to relate it, too much shame and too much internal pain.
am i the only one that feels that they have given up trying to communicate their feelings here anymore?
like my personality is a sham, i do my best to cope, to be happy, to be this cantankerous old sod that tries to make out to everyone i'm doing well, but ..... anyone?

I think we live in a world that for the most part abuse the few who wear their heart on their sleeve.
Tell me about it brother. I understand.

This Is How They Do it . . .

19-20 allow no place for the devil!

Remember kids, don't question the GBs authority, simply follow what they say and preach what THEY teach, until THEY question various teachings and allow YOU to preach another flavour of truth
God gives us each the power to reason for ourselves, the GB perform a spiritual lobotomy on each of us to remove our rights as individuals.
YUK !

Elder visit after being DF'd
by Evesapple inhas anyone ever been re-visited by the elders after being df'd or da'd for some time?
i was once in arizona about 5 years ago, fortunately i was not home, my roomate was, they asked if i was home and she said 'no', they said they were from the local congregation of jehovah's witnesses and would like to invite me back, they also asked her if she was aware that i was once associated with the witnesses and she said, 'yes, i'm very aware'....they then asked when would be a good time to get me home, she was very vague and said "i don't know really, she's training for a marathon and is very busy with school, i never really know when she's home"....they never came back, i think they got the hint, or were just too lazy to try again.
i'm sure my mother had something to do with it....her last hope i guess.

Indeed - neglect occurs. Somebody I know has been out for 3 years now and is looking to return, problem being, this person has only had one brief visit, and this is coming from a person who is genuinely interested and does not doubt the society as being God's only channel.

Didn't want to sound preachy.....and I bet I will get some flack...but the post did ask what we think,so for all it is worth it is how I look at it.
It's ok to express your way of viewing events. Hello by the way!
I suspect that 99% of people here will already have that version of events imprinted on their minds.
