One year and counting
by lancelink inif you look at the previous post, i wrote down what the final nail in my jw carreer was.. and i'll tell you right now, i have absolutly no intention of returning to this religion,,,, but several things have happened and i would appreciate your personal thoughts on the matter.. when my mom died, about the same time my wife became baptized as a mormon, she was a witness for 20 years before.. she was satisfied spiritually so i left her to her own beliefs.
besides i was in no mental position to continually argue about it.
she developed lots of new friends, and i focused on myself, dealing with the death of a parent was alot hard than i thought it would be.

Christmas
by lancelink infor years as a jw i believed that christmas and everything associated with it was bad.
but lately i have been looking at different beliefs, and reading books of the bible in their entirety (not just convenient verses).
i was amazed at the way bible stories taught by the jw's change when the entire chapter is read !

education
by lancelink ini have been following the wt's latest stand on higher education.. yet it seems that i am hitting statementsoff and on under different topics/.
this latest bit of news i find to be very backwards thinking, in fact if it is true it would hasten my fade considerably, since i really believe.
kids these days need college.. could the statements,forms, and replies be true?.

religious expression at work
by lancelink ini saw this on msnbc, thought many of you might find it interesting ;.
religious expression often frowned on at work .
bias claims on the rise; fitting into company culture also important.

just like working with the witnesses !
by lancelink inyears ago when i was working pt and pioneering with the brothers in the trades i found it funny how they considered themselves "experts".
in their chosen trade, it could have been painting/window washing/plumbing/construction, etc.. this video made me laugh,, mainly for my experiences working with the witnesses !
this is so on the mark !.
