Birthdays?? Good explaination...please??
by inarock&ahardplace ini would love it if someone out there could clarify for my stubborn brain just why birthdays are forbidden??
for the life of me, and i was a witness for over 30 years, i still can't wrap my brain around that issue.
i need something more than the two accounts 'gone wrong' and pagen, in the bible.

Something the speaker said yesterday that got my wife thinking. Advice?
by PaNiCAtTaCk ini was working yesterday so i wasnt at the meeting but the speaker in his talk made comments about 1914 on several occasions and towards the end of his talk he mentioned that if any new ones in attendence didnt understand the signficance of 1914 or how we know that christ started ruling in 1914 that they were invited to ask any jw in attendence to explain these things to them and they would be happy to.
this really got my wife to thinking because as a 28 year old jw who was raised as a witness and who has always been very active in the ministry she couldnt explain 1914 or any beliefs that we have as witnesses in regards to 1914 other than things havent been the same in the world since this pivotal date.
something as simple as this comment from this speaker can be the first step into seeing the errors in the wt belief system.

Urgently Required: A Royal Mistress..
by Englishman init just occurs to me that with the wedding of charles & camilla there appears to be no royal mistress waiting behind the scenes.. just imagine..for the first time in centuries, the prince of wales hasn't got a mistress waiting to soothe his fevered brow.
i mean..who ever heard of anyone actually marrying their mistress..good grief.. so c'mon, gals, anyone interested in applying for the job?
ok, we know charlie boy is something of a tree-hugger and has an earnest desire to become a tampon.

Bookstudy Group Disbanded......haha
by Mary ini just got word that the bookstudy attendance in one of the groups at my hall has dwindled off to numbers so pitiful that they're dissolving this particular bookstudy group and splitting up the remainder and shipping them out to other bookstudy groups.
