Jeff: You can buy left handed guitars. I play left handed guitar - I own a LaPatrie Etude, left handed, for classical, and a Yamaha RGX 121Z for metal. If you think the handedness is holding you back then buy a left handed guitar and follow your dreams.

Why Do JWs Believe They Have The "Truth" When Their View Keeps Changing?
by minimus ini don't get it.. can anyone explain it to me?.
-

Well minimus, the greek noun rendered "truth" can actually be loosely translated as "change". Furthermore, the greek noun rendered "free" is perhaps better understood as "spiritually occupied". Therefore, when Jesus said "you will know the truth, and truth will set you free", he actually meant "you will know change, and change will keep you spiritually occupied". So you see brother, you need to keep up with present change, er, truth, and learn to wait in Joe Hober to reveal accurate understandings which typically have a 10-year shelf life, at which point they must be replaced. On second thoughts, don't think about it at all. Just keep your mind occupied by having as full a share as possible in the Kingdumb Preaching Joke!

I have some riffs in my head. When I have enough, and figure out how they go together, I will compose a death metal song and title it "The Sacred and the Profane" (unless something else occurs to me). Seems like a badass song name.

What's Your View of "Friends"? Are They "Real"???
by minimus inthe older i get, the more i see that most "friends" are not "real friends".
i can count on 1 hand who i consider friends.
i have many enjoyable aquaintances that i socialize with but i doubt they'd really be "there" for you.

I think it is because baring your soul to them may result in being reported to the elders or be viewed as not totally theocratic.
Definitely. In the hyper-paranoid cultic atmosphere exuded by witlesses, anybody could be an "informant". Secrets can never be told. You have no idea who is going to relay that to the PO (psst... thought you might like to know what Brother Thinker said to me... you know, just something you might want to keep in mind...), who will relay that to the CO, and meantime the POs wife will get ahold of it and once that happens, you're up shit creek without a paddle!

To get back on topic...
Isn't that sort of what the paradise promotes...equal distribution of assets and everyone thinking alike?
Yeah, that's exactly why we don't want to be in "paradise"! Of course I suspect you're just playing the devils advocate here. I can never figure you out. Are you a crazy, or do you just like debating?

Did you ever feel as if you were socially handicapped as a Witness?
by Hiddenwindow insome of my friends claim that growing up as witnesses was a normal experience, in the sense that they did not miss celebrating hollidays or associating with wordly people.
these friends are witnesses in good standing, therefore, i doubt their sincerity and feel that they just do not want to go agaist the party line.
in my case, since i always had the desire to participate in extracurricular activities in school (and did when i could), always felt actracted to politics and art, it was very hard.

This passage could be used to support trinitarian theology. From that bastion of scholarly Biblical exegesis, the New World Translation ():
And the seventh angel blew his trumpet. And loud voices occurred in heaven, saying: "The kingdom of the world did become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will rule as king forever and ever."16 And the twenty-four elders who were seated before God upon their thrones fell upon their faces and worshiped God, 17 saying: "We thank you, Jehovah God, the Almighty, the One who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and begun ruling as king.
Just wondering if any of our Watchtower historians / biblical scholars could inform me as to how the Washtowel distorts this scripture to fit their dogma? I looked it up on the WT Library and didn't find anything.

Pro's and Con's of DAing myself.
by lancelink ini have been wrestling with the idea of da'ing myself for close to a year now.
but there is a small area in my subconscious that whispers "this is not a good idea.
i haven't been to a meeting in over six months, no service in seven years.
-

DoomVoyager
I'd always just assumed that I would DA when I finished college, but after reading this I'm reconsidering. Perhaps the best idea would be to just move out and tell any would-be hounders to go blow a goat. Thanks to everyone who's posted for their insights.
