Do JW's now believe the year 2012 will bring armageddon?
by dutchstef inlast weekend i was enjoing the good weather in holland with my mother and my kid sister, who still is a jw, on a terras, drinking a beer.. my mother always tries to tell something positive that happened at the cong or something that she read in the washtowel and then i react negative or not at all.
it's a kind of game i don't know.. this time she said something like despite the fact that armageddon doesn't have to come during the generation of 1914, that does not mean that it isn't near... and then my kid sister reacted on this and said yes...possibly 2012.... i was pretty stunned... of this remark.. has anyone else heard something about the jw's now focussing on the year 2012?.

Does eating a rare steak = eating blood?
by neverendingjourney ini always wondered about this when i was still a jw.
i just assumed that it was improper for a jw to eat any meat that wasn't thoroughly cooked, especially steak.
i though everyone could see that the red juice contained blood, which, if eaten, amounted to a violation of the prohibition against eating blood.

vultures are the only breed of bird on the increase ready for armageddon!
by looloo ina disfellowshipped friend of mine was recently kindly informed about this by her jw mother , i presume they are meant to eat the billions od dead bodies , as my friend is a big lady she informed her mother they would get a good feed off her!!!
i actually think saying that to your child is a form of child abuse no matter how old they are and think it so sad that small children would be sat at meetings listening to that information and feeling so scared , i wonder if that information is actually accurate and where it comes from , does anyone know ?.

Would you support a 'tent' city in your town?
by sammielee24 ini read this comment in the sacramento news and wondered how many would support a 'tent' city for the homeless in their town?
i personally don't know how it works other than that i imagine it cloisters those homeless who wish to take of advantage of it into one large area, and provide them with toilets and tents and perhaps some form of help in the way of volunteers offering food or medical assistance.
once legal and set up, what would happen?

My wife was invited to the Memorial
by Big Tex inso here i am moving furniture from downstairs to upstairs and from upstairs to downstairs (yes i'm very sore today) when there comes a knock at the door.
two witnesses, man and wife, that nina has known since the 70's had come over to invite her to the memorial.
never mind she hasn't talked or heard from then in over a decade.. they made a point of ignoring me, and spoke only to nina.

The interior of your vehicle....how do you keep it?
by restrangled inthis subject may seem like fluff, but it really isn't.
in the last 3 days i have been in 3 vehicles, where the floor was not visable, water bottles or garbage were accidently kicked out as i tried to get in.
coffee cups belonging in the house were littered willy-nilly, the passenger seat was loaded with crap, and one vehicle actually held underwear of the persons love interest.
