God's name ??
by Ade ini know this has probably been covered before, if so i apologize for dragging it up again.
1) is it acceptable just because its an accepted pronunciation to call god je-ho-vah
2) should the witnesses constantly be saying jehovah this and jehovah that, as it seems to me to be taking up gods name ( if it is correct ) in a worthless way.

Small, but meaningful, moments of joy...
by daystar inin my office building we have a cafeteria that is run by another company.
there is this one mexican woman who has just the most pleasant demeanor, every day.
she greets everyone with a smile and a "how are you today, my friend?".

I corinthians chapter 11 verse 17 onwards???
by evergreen inok, i was reading this chapter today in my back garden and was astounded at what i had just read.
every year as long as i have been a witness vs 28 is mentioned that a man should examine himself under scutiny before eating the bread and drinking the wine.
obviously implying that only the anointed are to partake of the emblems etc.

30gh Anniversary Celebration
by buffalosrfree inwell our children really surprised us, we were in the belief that we were meeting at my son's house and all of us going out to eat together to celebrate our 30th anniversary.
well, were we ever surprised when we got to his house we found a host of family and friends waiting there to see us and my brother from up in wyoming was there also.
we got to see people we hadn't seen for some over 2 years and even longer for others.

JW obsession with dates, etc
by praiseband ini'm posting this not as a criticism, but as a perspective from a non-jw.
most christians would be sooooo boggled by the complete obsession with historical dates that jw's can argue back and forth about for ever it seems!
i'm not voicing an opinion here about whether there is merit to it or not.

Question for Christians only
by Steve Lowry inok, i got save in 1984 (left the wbts 1979).
i have always felt at a loss when it has come to the emotional impact aspect of jesus' sacrifice.
what i mean to say is, that i have seen other christians openly weep about jesus and his death on the cross, while i have felt nothing.

How tolerant are you?
by nicolaou ini was just skimming through lt's intolerance thread and it seemed to me that sometimes tolerance is a terrible thing.
we don't tolerate racism, sexism or abuse and punish it when we can.
we expose and ridicule individuals and corporations if they are found guilty of fraud or deceit because we are intolerant of dishonesty.
