I wondered about that too. Whatever they have up their sleeve, you can be sure they will put quite a good spin on it to make the believers shiver in expectation of the next big thing and to correlate their desicion with the imminent start of Armageddon.

Will The New Watchtower Kill Off The Awake?
by metatron ini don't know if any of you have considered this but is the new watchtower arrangement partly intended.
to permit the end of the awake magazine?.
it is a financially difficult thing for a religion the size of the "truth" to publish one - much less two .

Are you a participant in, or an observer of, humanity?
by AlmostAtheist ini was talking with a coworker today about the iraq war.
she is furious about bush's invasion and occupation of another sovereign nation, and much more so over what she sees as the murders of the civilians involved.. with the same set of facts available to both of us, i found our dissimilar reactions to it interesting.
i am amused by it, and she's outraged.. we discussed why that might be the case.

I'm a jump right in with both feet kinda person who sometimes ends up saying: oops!
Seriously, some people live life in full color others in black and white and others in shades of gray. Technicolor works best for me.

Finally getting shunned...
by bluesbreaker59 inwell my family has been doing it for a while.
but i found it really strange, that i live in an area of town with many jw's and still go to all the normal places, and yet i'd not seen them... last week, walking around downtown, i spotted my "step -aunt", (step mom's side) and she put her head down, and wouldn't acknowledge me.
then i rode up the elevator with her today, same treatment, thought today she made eye contact.

Another Elder Suicide?
by still_in74 inwell it looks like a southern ontario elder just took his own life.
i cant go into details as we live in a very small world in "the truth" and even the smallest amount of detail on this one could quickly connect this to me, so for now its on the d-low.. it is a relative of a very close friend and he is godsmacked by it.
he said to me, " we sure seem to be seeing more of this lately arent we?

I agree with purps. Throw yourself into your child for awhile. Take time off from relashionships and do some thinking and growing. And remember, happiness comes from "within", you can't depend on others to make you happy(that includes god).
