I've been debating on whether or not to share this...but here goes
by findingmyway infor those of you who will be disgusted that i even attended the meeting, let alone allow my son to give his first public talk tonight, please, spare me the shouting messages.

"Watchtower" - Why did Russell REALLY choose that name?
by Sirona inwhy did ct russell name his magazine zions watchtower, herald of christs presence (now the watchtower)?
i cant find reference to that anywhere.

The story of my life (part 5- Bethel, the first shock)
by onacruse inabout 2 months after i arrived at bethel (late spring), i took my place at the breakfast table...awakened, as usual, by the 6 a.m. bell, a quick shower, and arriving with great anticipation for the 7 a.m. daily comments, with a few words from the "head of the table" (usually knorr, but they had recently started a weekly "cycling" of governing body members; part of the impending organizational elders restructuring).
the norm was to start eating at 7:30 a.m. (read "scoop the bowl and wolf it down"), and on the clock by 8 a.m.. but, on this day, something completely beyond my anticipation.
knorr starts off by saying that we should be prepared to sit for a while, as he proceeds, for 3 hours, to outline how a homosexuality "ring" has been operating at bethel for some time, including some gileadites.

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.

People who are mad at jw's. Should be mad at the bible?
by What_is_ur_point inthe bible is a serious book.. and the bible is a set of instructions set before mankind.
i believe being disfellowshipped the second time here makes me feel upset.
it would make anyone hurt frustrated or mad.
