  How do you feel about Common Core education?

  by nonjwspouse in

  1. social
  2. current

  especially if you are a teacher, how did you learn about it to begin with?

  was there a common core rep doing a slick presentation?.

  how do those of you with kids on school feel about, among others, things such as the deemphasis on the great works of literature ?.

  My take-away from this thread:

  Right-wing fear-mongerers (such as Glenn Beck) do a poor job of preparing their constituents to participate in a fact-based debate.

  i know this was noted earlier:.

  http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/266186/3/the-big-announcement-this-week#.uoaoe_yo5dg.

  but it was officially announced today that the school for couples and the school for single brothers were being combined with the new twist that single sisters would be allowed also.

  But single sisters (over 25 yrs old) outnumber, single brothers. what? 8 to 1, I would guess?

  Same as in a retirement community. Highly competitive.

  Interesting to see your recent activity-

  "They shun any one who questions anything and make lists of people

  they can talk about and then take pleasure and derive a sense of superiority

  from abandoning their life long friends and relatives."

  Looks like you've been been victimized. But only with your permission.

  i finally came to the realization that i am ugly.

  i'm 28 years old and never had a girlfriend.

  women pay me absolutely no attention when i'm in public.

  Drugs such as LSD, marijuanna, mushrooms, and x has helped me come to terms with my life.

  Really? It now sounds as if complaining that you're ugly is an just an excuse to do drugs. Why not create a life you don't want to escape from?

  Men have an advantage I don't quite understand but it is true - if they dress and groom well, exude confidence and persist, there is no stopping them! Women love a man who is confident, assured, and persistent. Looks are the least of it.

  The murmuring phase is the beginning of an ex-JWs progression towards fading.

  by Stand for Pure Worship in

  i suppose part of the fascination i have with this board is, the exotic nature of those making up the member population.

  i say exotic because, as you yourselves will agree with, folks such as yourselves don't hang around the christian congregation for long upon making the decision that truth is not for you.

  (rom 1:25) this "fading" thing spoken of here likely plays a role into why christians such as me find the average ex-jw to be a bit fascinating.

  The Truth doesn't change

  Instead of focusing on keeping up to date and accepting the adjusted understanding of God's organization, they choose to focus on the imperfections of those presenting the modified truths.

  So, The Truth doesn't change it just gets modified?

  their attempt to use syrup God's chosen mediators,

  Okay, got it - hidden code for "this entire persona (SFPW) is a gigantic leg-pull."

  Why Does this super smart Bible God not perform miracles

  by confusedandalone in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  let's be serious - if you really want people to have faith and to be able to now absolute truth why not perform miracles.

  why not make the bible a blank book and when you open it, it addresses you personally in writing of course.

  for instance it says, "hey confusedandalone this is what i need you to do.

  Y'know, God was created for people like confusedandalone. So I think his questions are totally valid - yeah, why not reveal Yourself and Your requirements so that the average man can understand? The more complex and esoteric the explanations, the further from the truth that the average schmoe would grasp.

  A child that DIDN'T want to die ... a blood experience you won't read in Awake! or on JW.ORG

  by wannabefree in

  while doing work for a client in her office recently, we got into a light discussion about religion.

  she knew i was one of jehovahs witnesses as our business relationship started while i was still a loyal and believing jw.

  anyway, i said something that she knew didnt quite fit and she said ... i thought you were one of jehovahs witnesses ... i shared my story ... she felt comfortable to confide in me a story as to why, even though she has had dealings with jehovahs witnesses who she thinks are good people, she would never even consider listening to them about their religion.. i asked her if she would write it down for me so that i could share ... she agreed.. this is her experience.. .

  Parents have the law on their side as far as their religious beliefs.

  So sad. This child did not have the right to determine his own life and death - his misguided parents did.

  More blood on the hands of the governing body. How do they sleep?
