Talk Prayer
by under_believer insomeone posted something in another thread about how prayer is often used to summarize the content of the meeting.
this is absolutely true and is something that always has really bothered me about witness meetings.
jws often use the opening or closing prayer to "teach" the congregation.

Your guardian angel
by greendawn inthere is always a lot of talk among the jws about the fallen satanic angels who turned away from holiness to practicing evil and tyranny, but what about the holy angels?
there are guardian angels for nations, cities, and individual humans, do you think you have one?
their duties are to protect from visible and invisible enemies, to teach humans divine justice, show them the good way, and comfort them during stressful, difficult times.

Does anyone else feel like their damaged goods?
by MsMcDucket ini feel like this all the time.
i have a husband that loves me, but i still feel like if i ever were on the singles market that i would not be a "good catch".
my health problems and most of all being a former jehovah's witness makes me feel less than perfect.. i'm having a pity party.

Easy, Healthful Snacks - Suggestions wanted.
by AudeSapere inthis is an extension of my other thread ( http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/114967/1.ashx) but seemed to warrant it's own heading since it will probably attract different people and can have so many other applications, too.. since i'm home alone nursing a broken ankle and injured knee, getting downstairs to make breakfast and other meals is pretty difficult right now.. .
does anyone have any suggestions for foods to keep upstairs that are reasonably healthy and do not require refrigeration?
i can bring up a coffee pot for coffee and tea.

WT says child abuse can be given up!
by ozziepost infrom the "official" wt site comes this gem:.
for a man who was a child molester before he was baptized, there may be another consequence.
when he learns the truth, he repents and turns around, not bringing that cruel sin into the congregation.

Its getting dull
by KW13 in.
i can't help thinking now that without any predictions for the end, the bad history of the society and the things its done in peoples lives, which will surely continue without it radically changing and become like every other religion (which wont happen) that the society is going to just keep shrinking.. firstly, the internet is an effective means of getting the real truth out at people.
the society have tried to stop the witnesses having the independent spirit e.t.c all this must be getting very boring and making the average dub tired and if not, its sure to.. i spoke to my mum and i made the point that there is no real joy at the kingdom hall or any means to express it.. she said "well, people are under a lot of stress" and i noted how concerned she looked about that.. your thoughts?

Met a Laid off Bethel Couple
by doinmypart ini met a married couple caught up in the recent bethel layoffs.
they are a fairly young couple in their mid to upper 30s, i didn't think to ask which department they worked in before being laid off.
the couple was driving cross country from new york to california, and stopping overnight at jw homes along the way.

One of those scary moments!!
by Sad emo inwe're having summer in the uk this week so earlier this afternoon i put my two guinea pigs out in their run to 'mow the lawn' while i went indoors and had something to eat.. i went back out later to check that they still had some shade from the sun, stepped out of the door just in time to hear a loud splash.
i dashed to the pond to see if it was one of my cats who had fallen in.
but it was one of the guinea pigs who'd managed to escape!!!.
