  i remember the whole process of selecting a host city for australias last international convention.

  the australian bethel played the nsw government against the victorian.

  it was so similar to choosing an olympic city and the big boys from bethel knew how to play the game.

  C.O. Talked about the fact that we may die in this system

  by life is to short in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  being that my husband is still going to most of the meetings, i tied into the meeting sunday to see what the co had to say on his last day at the hall.

  one thing i found interesting is that we may die in this system.

  he said when he first learned the "truth" he just knew for sure that the system would end before he was baptized and he was so stressed out from it.

  Assembly Parts NEVER made sense to me....!!!!

  2. friends

  this is and always has been one of my biggest gripes: assembly parts/experiences.

  not 1....ever......e-v-e-r was even remotely relatable to me.

  now i have traveled all over the place (and to other countries) and i have sat amongst rich and poor jws, suburbanites and urbanites, siddity folks and straight 'hood'.....and not 1 assembly experience made me sit up in my seat and say "wow - that's just like me!".
