Does your pinkie fit in your ear lobe ? Superstitions
by Crumpet inwhen i was younger i remember my jw best friend had a bible study who was malaysian i think and he passed on some superstitions.
i wonder if any of you have heard of them before.. if you have a very thin/short upper lip you will have a tendency to be thrifty and if very thin you will be mean.. if you can fit your pinkie/little finger in the dip in your ear lobe you will be very sensuous and extremely so if you can fit it neatly by breadth and up to the first bendy bit ( sorry is that called a knuckle) you will be highly sexualised.. and can you encircle your left wrist with the thumb and little finger of your right hand.
if so you will be lucky even when you make bad choices.. try them and see if there's any truth in it.

I wasn't even my choice...should it count?
by findingmyway ini can't help thinking that if i had never gotten baptized out of loyalty and fear of disappointing my parents (and fear of having my flesh eaten by birds of prey after being destroyed in armageddon), i would not be in this situation.
i have several family members and former friends who were raised as jws, but never got baptized, and they never have to experience the angst and pain that i have to experience.
i was baptized and never dedicated my life.

Watchtower: Theocratic or corporate?
by DaCheech inthe other week we were read a letter about the upcoming elder/ms training school.
out of all the letter i discussed with my friend from another congregation the part that said "if you are unable to go to your assigned school, and you want to attend another circuit's school you can with the circuit overseer's permission.... but if you happed to attend an earlier one than the brother s you frequent, you should keep all matter confidential until they hear it themselves".
well my friend (jw) cracked up, and laughed at this "stupidity", but before the conversation was over, he added his own personal experience "stupidity".. he said: in my cong.
