I was at the meeting the other day and this brother gave a really really good talk (Waits for the stones and sticks to be thrown at him). But seriously it was a very good talk just because it was a good talk. He actually talked about Jesus and different things and he talked about very deep issues and he brought it out great. It kind of made my day in a way. But then.... The watchtower comes along... and I read about how you should give even more to the cause. And tell stories about people giving up everything for it... and it just bah... was crap pretty much sorry but it was. I'm glad I know my family have way good and they won't REALLY give up everything to do God's work because shoot... having money is good at times... and not worrying about bill to bill is kind of good at times. But I dunno I kind of feel for the people who are actually giving up everything for the cause. I mean even if they get to that beautiful place in the universe I still feel sorry for them and their struggles that are kind of self imposed in this life. Kind of makes me sad at times... at least I have the fun loving JW youth to keep me company. Lol JW kids are some of the craziest funny things in the world... well where I stay anyways. Most of the older folk just seem out of it in a way... I'ma try to at least help the kids out so they won't be like that in the future.

a sad comment regarding Jesus
by anew ini realized, the other day, how far the wt has really gone from the original gospels.
i was having a minor argument (again) with my mother regarding my no longer being a witness.

Feild service just became totally optional. July 1 watchtower 2004.
by XQsThaiPoes in"today we likewise do not use fear or simular negative emotions, such as shame, to coerce others into obeying christ.
only whole souled obedience based on love for god and christ makes jehovahs heart rejoyce.".
so if you feel half-a* about door knocking stay home..

My parents are like "Oh it's great that you can draw, but don't let it bring down your commitment to jehovah." Thought drawing was the devil for many years and have a huge lack of time that I could have been like the greatest artist in the world but no it's bad...

I'm sorry but I gotta admit that I would put myself in pictures too if I was a president of something. I think in alot of pictures the artists put their families and stuff dunno I always hear stuff.
But ya it's terrible... Don't see the harm in it but ya it's kind of crappy. Man if I was a Bethel Artist I would have done 20 times worse.

They talked about this at the DC. Only a few witnesses are gonna actually use this for a while... Unless they start talking about it more like they talk about youths getting baptised. God I will be building arks till I'm 20.
