I can't argue with you, OBVES, you're probably old enough to be my grandfather. I respect you. Please go on with your pencil pushing. I don't mind.
Shalom!

I'm not kidding! There'll be no end for the world! You'll see...
any stories?..........
When I told the fellow elders, "I SHALL NOT SERVE A CRUEL GOD" (thumping the table with my right-hand index finger), they were trembling. They couldn't decide on which ground to disfellowship me. But a dub confided to me afterwards that I was disfellowshipped for "apostasy." He remarked that I should just have committed "immorality" to have been disfellowshipped because it was forgivable while apostasy was an unpardonable crime. Ha-ha!

Okay, okay, guys, calm down, calm down! Just be cool! Don't worry, I'll stop Armageddon -- the physical one. God is already here.
this is an epiphany i had about 5 years ago that forever changed my attutude towards the bible, the god of the old testament (and new testament) and all religion in general.
esp since the borg hold him up as a hero of faithfulness and one of the great faithful men of old.
it was quite a jolt to my worldview when that realization hit me like a frikkin bus.. thoughts?.
Samson might be the first suicide bomber but Cain is the first terrorist. Agree or disagree?
it just occurred to me that i have never seen a member on jwd who was a minister/priest/rabbi/monk,friar,shamman, etc.
maybe i have just missed their posts and then again, maybe they don't come here for some reason.
i know they must come in contact with jw's and ex-jw's all the time.
Maybe because we don't believe in hell and they'll have a hard time scaring us.
ever want to speak to them , i was only a study but i thought it very odd and judgemental to not even look at them and i used to think what are they so scared of if they have the truth , i did not buy the satan stuff about them at all , cult , was what sprung to mind and started my doubts
i was told not to even look...
You are then faced with a dilemma. Maybe if you look, you'll die.
But if you don't look, you'll stumble.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILzVDnhujtY

talking about surreal - bonezz!
i was looking to start a new topic and clicked onto your thread and read about your melancholic moment in starbucks.
This was sent to me by my cousin there in the US of A.
after all the drama that has been on so many posts .it got me very depressed .
you ( many of you ) say your my great-grand kids or kids.
well granny needs a lift.
I was listening to Prelude to Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 when I clicked this thread. All of a sudden, as if coming from nowhere, there was this indistinct laugh. I had goosebumps and quickly took off the headphone to see if I was not hearing demons on JWD.
i've been going through my old journals and here's something that i originally wrote on june 20, 2004.. dont live to impress other humans.
if you live to impress god, consider just doing your best instead.
the key to being happy is recognizing that god loves us.
Please allow me to give a soundtrack to Happiness 101 by Abandoned as you read through it:
