Ok, Question: Was there a comment made at a meeting that finally convinced.
by New Castles inwas there a comment made at a meeting that finally convinced you, this is not right?
for me a couple of weeks ago was in the service meeting, they stated that if the children didnt finish their homework because they were studying the bible or at a meeting that teachers should understand that their meetings and study are more important.
i looked at my wife and went "what"??

That most puzzlin' species called Women, or Ladies if you prefer .....
by Celtic inceltic sighs harumphing as he does so.. if only.. if only more men were like women and some women were like men the world would be almost perfect.
the added schenalligan though still in the recipe afterwards i'm sure would be women, though definitely not men, though in the minority would still cause hell for everyone else.
you can take that as an inverted compliment.

What do you do?
by desib77 ini know most jws are encouraged to take worthless jobs and barely scrape by so as to spend more time in the ministry.
i was fortunate to have my dad encourage me to do something more with my life than house cleaning.
i followed in his steps and became a civil draftsman....(draftsperson .

Whats been your greatest personal Struggle?
by ScoobySnax inwhats been yours?
be honest.. i know mines always been trying to reconcile being gay and being jw.
as i was growing up it was like being in the middle of 2 polar opposites both tugging at me day in day out, sometimes trying to understand one whilst ignoring the other and vice versa.

Are You a Taker Not a Giver
by blondie inmany posting here once would not accept a blood transfusion or give blood because of the wts doctrine.. having left that doctrine behind and being willing to "accept" a blood transfusion, are you willing (if able medically) to donate blood?.
if willing to accept an organ transplant, are you willing (if medically able) to donate an organ, either as a live donor or when deceased?.
if yes, to both questions, do you donate blood regularly?

mainly, tuesdays and thursdays for me.
waste the entire day at school, then come home, take a shower, scarf down supper and be ready to go by 6:30pm.
