im sure we all remember how nervous we were around the circuit overseer and how careful we were with our words, i recall one day being out in service with the co's wife and my daughter said to her my dad calls me his mamoo which in greek meant monkey and the co's wife says how cute,and then my daughter says and i call him my little farting machine, omg i called have fallen through the ground, needless to say the circuit overseers wife was not amused, so what funny things have we all said or heard said?

Lighten the mood with a FUNNY joke

by think41self in

a horse and a chicken are playing in a meadow.

the horse falls into a mud hole and is sinking.

he calls to the chicken to go and get the farmer to help pull him out to safety.

a woman goes into the kitchen to see her man running around with a fly swatter in his hand, she asks him what are doing, he says i am hunting flies, she says any luck, he says yep killed three males and two females, she was suprised and asked how do you know if they are males or females, he said well i killed three on a can of beer and two on the phone......

Jehova's Witnesses and Dating

by SoManyQuestions in

jw

there's this really great girl i know, and she is so perfect for me, except for the fact that she's a jehova's witness and i'm not.

she says that she can't date outside the religion.

i'm pretty sure that jehova's witnesses are a branch of "mainstream christianity" (meaning they just basically follow the bible, not have a different interpretation like like mormons).

chezza

This i something that is drummed in to all jw's, bad associations spoil useful habits 1 cor 15:33
marry only in the lord, or in their interpretation in the same religion
They also tell you that it is too hard to have a marriage in a divided house, religously devided that is. ie: you are going to your parents for xmas lunch, your jw girlfriend cant go because of her religous beliefs and the same goes for birthdays and all other pagan celebrations, not to mention the fact that she will be going to three meetings a week and going out in field service, all of these things will keep her away from you and you may start to resent the jw faith. Hope my little thought help a little :-)

Can marriage survive infidelity??

by butalbee in

my best friend, jamilynne, comes over this morning for coffee.

i haven't seen her in awhile, guess she had been busy........she's been really busy, i find out today!.

she tells me that she cheated on her husband, with a man she works with.

chezza

Ok so everyone can hate me right about now but my experience is that i cheated on my husband, and there are always two sides to a story, he has all the sympathy from the witnesses and i am left out in the cold, what we are forgetting here is if a marriage is truly happy there would be little reason to stray, i'm not saying thats the case here but in my case i was miserable and my husband knew it and did absouletly nothing to rectify the situation because he was too busy being an elder, i feel as though i was pushed out of the marriage by his being busy with the truth, in my case the day i cheated on him i told him the marriage was over and ended it there because i knew that the trust was gone and that would be very hard to rebuild.

Molestation News

by Mishnah in

no, it's not about jws.

the catholics are still tops when it comes to this digusting practice.

by the way, about two years ago i was in a congregation where a molester, former elder, was publicly reproved and turned over to the police.

chezza

I too agree the watchtower society needs to look at its stand here, this very thing happened in my family, my brother in law molested my niece and during the investigation it came out that others had it happen to them many years earlier in the congregation, but when the elders were approached by the family they denied having any knowledge of the abuse, had the elders been protecting the flock they would have made sure that the family of this peodophile knew about what he had done, i lost my marriage over this and so did my sister, how many more lives will be screwed because of the watchtowers protecting this animals.

Jesus died on a stake or a cross?

by 2SYN in

this is something i've been puzzling over recently.

just for argument's sake, let's say that jesus did exist - was he murdered on a stake or on a cross?

this is puzzling me, because the only real research i've ever read on the subject was in wtbts publications, and since this is obviously a highly questionable source of documentation, i'd love it if someone here could point me to a scientific resource for finding out the truth about this...thx.... the earlier in the forenoon you take the sun bath, the greater will be the beneficial effect, because you get more of the ultra-violet rays, which are healing.

Here is a link to an article i was reading about it myself, bearing in mind that it was pagans that crucified jesus and not jw's
