The Beatings Will Continue Until Morale Improves
by PaintedToeNail inbeing an adult, i choose not to attend the meetings.
i would prefer my children not attend meetings, however being married to a diehard jw, this is difficult to accomplish.
the kids do not want to attend, as the meetings are boring, as they have often said.

How did you fare in High School as a JW?
by PaintedToeNail infor me it was rather painful.
it was like pressing your nose against the candy store window, knowing that you can look, but you cannot partake.

JOB-Was He Used As A Gambling Pawn?
by PaintedToeNail inthe book of job describes a conversation between the devil and jehovah, as everyone knows.
however, satan knew jehovah intimately and would have been well aware of jehovah's ability of foreknowledge.
one would have to imagine that jehovah could have easily just told satan that job would in fact be faithful and therefore spared job the agony he went through, as he had insight because of his foreknowledge that the spirit creatures should have understood.. did jehovah and satan have a high-stakes game going?

It's Thursday night, and I get to be here, instead of at the KH!
by PaintedToeNail init is great to not feel compelled to go to the kh on thursday nights.
for years i hated going out on thursday evenings.
now, i get to stay home and do what i want, while several family members feel obligated to go through the motions.

Help! Strange request for info I heard in a Recorded (gasp!) Talk.
by PaintedToeNail ini heard a recording of a talk by a bro.
who's topic was something to the effect of 'coincidences in the history of wtbts and jehovah's direction'.
i believe it was an american bro., who claimed that a woman who owned a mansion in atlanta, at the time of general sherman's march to the sea, and subsequent burning of atlanta, had her mansion saved.

Had dinner with friends-found out none of got Baptized because we loved God
by PaintedToeNail inmy spouse and i had supper with some long time friends this evening.
we got onto the subject of baptisim, and out of the four of us, we all got baptized for some other reason than love of jehovah.
i find this to be really sad.

How Many Out There Have to Hide or Be Stealthy When They Visit This Site? I know I do.
by PaintedToeNail ini cannot look at this site freely, it would make my hubby and son very upset.
i have to hide what i'm looking at, or try to view this page very late or very early in the morning.
hubby has taken to getting up at 11:30pm or later, to see what i'm doing on the computer.
