  okay, i'm closing in on 500 posts, but have almost no 'new topics' to my name.

  i don't feel like starting anything profoundly spiritual.

  so, i'll share this tip that has worked for my kinfolk.. on both sides of my family, we frequently suffer from nighttime leg craps.

  let's start a list of reasons why you were told, or overheard people telling, won't make it through the big a day.

  i'll start.. 1. they don't take showing up for cleaning the kingdom hall seriously and never show up.

  i overheard a sour puss old elder say this to his wife after he just gave a scolding talk on it.

  What's the BEST thing about being "out" of the "truth"?

  by B_Deserter in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  for me, it's having friends that i don't have to hide my lack of meeting attendance/service from.

  it's amazing how they teach you that only jws can be your real friends, but in reality, it's all contingent upon your religious "performance.

  " sure, if you're not going to meetings, they'll try to be "friends," by encouraging you to go back.

  Is the JW religion slowly turning into 7th Day Adventist?

  by White Dove in

  a friend of mine says they seem to be.

  her sister sent a memorial invitation and said, "will you be going to the memorial of christ's death?

  " she said that the use of "christ" was strange.

  JWs wrer an offshoot of the 2nd Adventists, Charles Miller's group in 1840's. The 7 Day Adventists stick closer to the old Jewish laws such as sabbath keeping on SATURDAY, not eating pork, shellfish, catfish, etc.

  I doubt if many jws would embrace a sabbath

  Does looks matter much to you?

  what importance do you place in the looks of a friend, or lover?.

  does the interior stand out more than the exterior shell which is skin deep?.

  Well, I'm recently widowed and since then I've had my bad teeth replaced by partials, dyed my hair to its natural color, lost 15 pounds. But before doing that, I asked 4 women to exchange phone numbers, and all 4 did and all the numbers were real.

  mine would have to be "dark days are here!

  men live in fear!....

  " followed by the annoying change to a happy beat before the chorus "but the bible gives us a reason for cheer.." .

  Songs that make you cry...

  i've been kind of sad the past few days for several reasons, but, there are certain songs that just cause the tears to flow whenever i hear them (and especially alone).

  only time by enya.

  i know that this song is often linked to the sept 11 attacks, but it really is just so hauntingly beautiful.

  Do you think that "JW's" will get rid of the "Paradise earth" doctrine?

  by booker-t in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  with all of the changes regarding the 1935 closing of the heavenly calling that jw's taught for over 70 years what will be the next thing to go in their doctrinal system.

  will they one day say"we were wrong the earth is going to burn up and all christians will go to heaven".

  russell was right after all and yes the "great crowd" will indeed go to heaven.nothing suprises me anymore with the jw's.

  No I don't believe they'll drop paradise. This is one of their most logical arguments- that God created the Garden of Eden, and intend men to work and make it worldwide, only Satan,& Adam have made a temporary setback on it, but it will happen. I have some cutover woodland for sale if any of you want to get a headstart lol
