Things are getting better? Tell me that's not true! My foundation's crumbling.
by FatFreek 2005 ini know, it's been years since i've been on the outside looking in.
years since i've actually paged through my latest issue of awake!, poring over the "watching the world" section, taking the pulse on how bad the world is getting.
that way, when i got to my next door in field service i could give the poor uninformed householder a good heads-up, full of the latest facts on how close the end really is.. this morning i checked out my wt cd library and was not disappointed.

Not called the Memorial this year?
by jwfacts ini just received my invitation to the memorial this year and noticed that the word memorial does not appear anywhere on the invitation.
it refers instead to the anniversary of jesus death.
is this a new thing, or is it always marketed as an anniversary rather than a memorial to unbelievers?.

You must not eat any "FAT"
by juci32 inif the witnesses follow the old law of "not eating blood" (even though the bible is pertaining to animal blood) then why do they not adhere to the command to avoid fat?
in leviticus 3:17 it states: 'this is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come, wherever you live: you must not eat any fat or any blood.'".
there is fat in almost every meat we eat.

by maryacclaim inthis subject may have already been hashed out on here in the past so let me know if so.. i was just curious though, because it would be an excellent point when discussing malawai and such.. here's the oath of citizenship:.
i hereby declare, on oath, that i absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which i have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that i will support and defend the constitution and laws of the united states of america against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that i will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that i will bear arms on behalf of the united states when required by the law; that i will perform noncombatant service in the armed forces of the united states when required by the law; that i will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that i take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me god.. just wondering.. .

Birthdays Okay -- if done by Fractions
by FatFreek 2005 ini have 2 sons who live close to each other.
thankfully, they are emotionally close despite the fact that the oldest never was baptized and therefore not bound by wt standards.. the youngest, the jw, had a birthday on the 1st of the month.
i wished him a happy one -- but, of course, only in my mind knowing that he would dismiss such a wish if he even talked with me on the phone.
