no blood cards this year!
by DIM inlast night at meeting they told us to just use our blood cards from last year.
in the past they've always told us how important it was to get it signed every year so that people could see our current views as jw's.....doesn't this new arangement negate everything they've ever said in regards to this?
absolutely nuts!.

by hawkaw inthe following press release was issued by the united nations department of public information on december 20 and 21, 2001. the release dealt with new ngos who became "associated" with dpi just like the way the watchtower as an ngo became "associated" with dpi in 1992.. .
http://www.un.org/news/press/docs/2001/ngo440.doc.htm.
i like the part about the 251 organizations who were "disassociated".

The Adventist Movement
by SharonUT inafter study... i have concluded that the jw's are nothing more than another off-shoot of the adventist movement.
see below.. the adventist movement (millerites) was started by william miller (a lay baptist minister) in 1843 and that created 3 off-shots.
the advent christian church, the life & advent union, and the seventh-day adventists (which sprang the branch davidians).

What Caused Your First Doubt ?
by Big Jim infor me it was when i was about twelve years old and my best friends dad was disfellowshipped from the congregation.. i could not understand how a god of love would treat someone so coldly.. i used to think what if that was the way my parents would treat me if i had done something wrong, that would be so hard and cruel.. as i got older another thing that bothered me was the beard issue.
it may sound pretty trivial however the society has always refused to make a good arguement as to why they would give you the old cold shoulder if you were to grow one.. two more items; first i could not understand why all the congregations and all the assemblys would give income reports.
and the society never did.
