  I haven't felt anything of noticeable "measurableness," so it's hard to say how much it was exactly. I've only felt 2 of probably a 4 intensity for a few seconds, and that was enough for a lifetime..

  If one day to Jehovah is a thousand years to us...

  ...how did that whole "whom i have approved" dove thing even happen at jesus' baptism?

  did jesus and john the baptizer have to wait for god to say it really slowly?.

  maybe it would take a few weeks for him to say it i haven't done the math.. maybe it's best if he didn't talk since it just takes forver and it's hard to make out the words when they are slowed down like that.. -sab.

  God can jump in and out of the time stream as he wants.. he created it, right?

  But if 1000 days IS a day to God, then he really is in the time stream all the time.. or just jumping in and out a lot..

  my head might explode now..

  Holy crap - on page 4, that family has a Miele vacuum.. those are like $500..

  Page 5 :

  A Witness in Greece said: “I was baptized when I was 12 years old. I have never regretted my decision. Since then, 24 years have passed, 23 of which I have spent in the fulltime service." I call 100% absolute horse-shit. Full-time pioneering since he was 13? RIIIIIIIIIIGHT..

  Page 6 : and I like the asian family discussing university, since they stereotypically are the ones who put the most emphasis on it..

  Can you even imagine putting any of those schools on your resume? The interviewer would probably bust out laughing and THEN toss your resume in the "to-be-shredded" pile. OH wait, if you have your own window cleaning company, who needs to interview? I see what they've done here..

  Last page - on the March 1 "say this during the ministy bit" : "There are conflicting opinions about Jesus. Do you view him as God's son or as just a good man?"

  Notice the lack of capitilization on "son." As though he isn't the ONLY Son that God has, but just one of many. Just weird...

  as you may have heard if you attended recently, social networking is of the devil and many have been 'lead astray' by website supposedly set up for jw.

  whatever, you heard it before about rock, hard rock, hip hop, rap, gangsta rap, tv, werewolves .... anyway you may have heard of the recent elder school where basically there were the proverbial tongue lashings about not having social networking sites.

  here is the skinny on recent developments:.
