The well's drying up
by expatbrit inlast weekend we had dinner with my wife's family.
they had just "enjoyed" their circuit assembly.. their circuit met in two halves over two weeks (avoids the mad scramble to the dining room that way).
total baptized for the entire circuit (a city circuit)?

The Society, Race, and an always white Adam.
by nicolaou inokay, it's an old question but we haven't examined it here yet so let's have your thoughts.. adam was the progenitor of the whole human race, from his genes sprang the negroid, caucasian, mongoloid, indo-european and every other race on the planet.. the hebrew people were not selected as jehovah's chosen nation until abram had found favour with god so presumably all races were equal in his eyes before then [as indeed they always have been].. so then, what basis is there, if any, for deciding what adam and eve's skin colour may have been?.
could they not indeed have been black?.
this is a pointless discussion i grant you.

Any other *New Light* I haven't heard about?
by eyes_opened inguess i have been out of the loop for a while!
that post about being denied priveledges if one decides to get a vasectomy is just too much.
i am truly appalled at the presumptiousness of these people who think they can control their followers to this degree.

If the society says "JUMP" do you ASK...
by nicolaou innot every jw is thick.
in fact i'd say that most of them are just misguided.. still, i was wondering how many types of jw we could define according to their response to a simple, direct instruction from the society.. let's say this fictional directive from the gb is: "jump"!.
what responses would various jw's give?.

So Who Wants To Be Married To A Doormat?
by Englishman inin her book the surrendered wife, california housewife laura doyle advises married women to submit to their husbands in all circumstances.
she says that the man should take absolute control in every imaginable situation, and that the woman should be passive, always giving way to her husband.
she should give her husband all of her salary, and if she gets a little bit back to spend, well, she should be very grateful to her lord and master for his kindness.. over on h20, pro-witness poster flair claims that women need discipline just like children do.
