Here is a Henny Youngman joke :
I've been married for 49 years. Where have I failed?
i went to the sunday circuit assembly and came back all riled up with all the nonsense.. the sunday program was on ''safeguarding your spirituality''.
''it is better to remain single and not marry.
that gives you more time for studying and the preaching work.

I stand behind what I said. I don't come here to rile anybody up.
The speaker mentioned about the 6 earthquakes and the viruses being signs that the end is near. They clapped because the end would be near for the Witnesses.
And.....Don't forget all the pleasure the Witnesses get when 6 billion people die at Armaggedon!

That was the worst meeting I ever attended!
I was thinking about all the people that died in Haiti and found it sad that the WTS would wait for an applause when mentioning the effects from earthquakes and viruses.
Here is the article about the earthquake from WIKIPEDIA:
The 2010 Haiti earthquake was a catastrophicmagnitude 7.0 M wearthquake, with an epicentre near the town of Léogâne , approximately 25 km (16 miles) west of Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital. The earthquake occurred at 16:53 local time (21:53 UTC) on Tuesday, 12 January 2010. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] By 24 January, at least 52 aftershocks measuring 4.5 or greater had been recorded. [ 7 ] An estimated three million people were affected by the quake; [ 8 ] the Haitian Government reported that an estimated 230,000 people had died, 300,000 had been injured and 1,000,000 made homeless. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] They also estimated that 250,000 residences and 30,000 commercial buildings had collapsed or were severely damaged. [ 11 ]

These people are SO SELFISH to clap about earthquakes and flu viruses killing people worlwide ? And for what do they clap ? Their DELIVERANCE from all this is getting near ! Allegedly. This JW cult develops and fosters selfishness in these people - it's like' As long as we get ours and get into the paradise- the hell with everybody else !
Great point Flipper! Haiti lost close to 200,000 people. Just think of all the homes,businesses,roads,and schools that need to be rebuilt. Think about how many lost fingers,hands,and feet. How many lost moms,dads,and loved one's who provided for them? Who's going to feed them now?
How sad it was to be in attendance yesterday watching everyone clap over other people's misfortune!

We all know that these scenes are all made up. They want to show that the brightest schools have nothing to offer.They use Harvard because that is elite. A good career means nothing to the WTS. The preaching work will get you into the ''new system''.....not money or career.

The speaker talked about how the h1n1 virus has killed thousands around the world. There have been 6 major earthquakes in the last year. He said,''Isn't wonderful that these things have happened as the ''end'' draws near''? ( How sad to wish death on people in Hati and people who died from the virus) Everyone clapped except me!
There were 2 sisters who got up and had a dramatization about a sister not wanting to go to College. I will paraphrase as best as I can.
High School Counselor: ''Have a seat Karen and I will show you all the College applications I have for you.''
Sister: ''Thank you for all the work you have done.''
Counselor: '' I have an application from Harvard,one from Michigan University,and a couple from the East Coast.''
Sister: '' I have done alot of thinking and decided not to go to any College."
Counselor: ''Karen,you have a 4.0 grade average and scored very high on the A.C.T. and you would have no problem getting into any of these schools."
Sister: '' As you know,I'm a Jehovah's Witness and we believe that we are near the ''end times.'' I decided that I will go into the preaching work part time and maybe go to a 2 year school."
Counselor: ''You will probably get into these schools at almost no cost because of your 4.0 average and high A.C.T. scores and have a good career the rest of your life.These are great schools and will prepare you to land a good job.''
Sister: ''This world is passing by and may not be here any longer. I decided to enter the ministry work and Jehovah God will provide for me in the future."
Everyone applauded except me. That was really sad to see!

Blondie:
Is it me or is the Writing Department just going thru the motions? The studies are always about the preaching work and obeying the ''faithful and discreet slave''.
Do you think they write these 2 studies week after week on purpose? After commenting on the WATCHTOWER STUDY all these years,what reason would you(Blondie) give as to why they pound this in until the brain starts hurting?
i always have a hard time saying entrepreneur.. are there any words or phrases that get you tongue tied?.

I have a hard time saying the word adrenaline.(Adrenaline is the most well known hormone secreted by the adrenal glands.)
randy watters, owner of freeminds.org father just died a couple of hours ago from pneumonia and alzheimers.

I'm so sorry on the loss of your dad!
jehovah's ruling kingdom.
jehovahs way of governing (3).
jehovah's ruling kingdom?
15. Each of us would do well to ask himself: 'Do I fully recognize the responsibilities that I should shoulder within the Christian congregation? Am I properly supporting Jehovah's way of governing? Am I proud to be a subject of Jehovah's ruling Kingdom? Am I determined to continue telling others about God's Kingdom to the extent that I reasonably can?' As a group, we willingly submit ourselves to the direction given by the Governing Body and cooperate with the appointed elders in the congregations. In such ways, we demonstrate our acceptance of God's way of ruling. (Read Hebrews 13:17.) Willing submission results in a worldwide unity that is unique in this divided world. It also produces peace and righteousness and brings glory to Jehovah, demonstrating that his way of ruling is by far the best.
Great study as usual!
Blondie:Is it me or are all the Watchtower studies about the preaching work and/or ''the faithful and discreet slave''?
The answer to every study seems to be: submit ourselves to the direction given by the Governing Body and cooperate with the elders in the congregations. Where is Jesus?
