Submitting an experience to WTS
by tootired2care injust curious, you always hear of the experiences in the yearbook or the wt about how jehovah provided for some lowly pioneer or disadvantaged person, or someone that put jehovah first.
were you ever personaly involved in one of the experiences or involved enough in the background to see how these experiences were authenticated for publications or assembly?
i'm wondering how much of these stories we hear are exaggerated or just outright lies,and what they had to do to sell it to us to motivate us to pioneer.

JWN website time for a re-write
by tootired2care ini don't want to sound ungrateful, but is there any plans to update this site?
it really needs it given all the traffic on it; who is in charge of running the site?.

Special talk earthquakes increasing really?
by tootired2care ini had to sit though the the special talk yesterday "is it later than you think", the brother a good deal of time making the case that major earthquakes are on the rise, and how i should believe it is "later than i think" based on that fact.
i took a bit of time to research this today, and sure enough they are not.
the link below has a chart of major earthquakes since the mid nineties, and it clearly shows they are random and all over the place.

Political party of maximum freedom
by tootired2care init amazes me that the country continues to support the political parties that have invaded our bedroom, wasted our money, and intruded on our freedom.
in other words the voters still vote democrat and republican, when it is those same parties that have gotten us in the mess we're in now.
it seems most of the issues that people have with the political parties boil down to simply limits and intrusions of freedom, whether it's imposed religious views or overtaxation and wastefulness.. my question is why hasn't there been a stronger movement to build a 3rd political party that has a core philosophy of maximum freedom?

What does Satan and 1/3 of all angels stand to gain by creating chaos?
by tootired2care in"and war broke out in heaven: michael and his angels battled with the dragon, and the dragon and its angels battled 8 but it did not prevail, neither was a place found for them any longer in heaven.
9 so down the great dragon was hurled, the original serpent, the one called devil and satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth; he was hurled down to the earth, and his angels were hurled down with him.

WTS stupid analogies for how to live your life
by tootired2care inone of the things that always bothered me about the wts teaching, is that they take these passages from the bible about a soldier, or battle, or staying awake, being urgent etc, and then use that to justify their points on how you need to live your life each and every day.. for example some brothers came over for sheparding (don't we all love those) and read a scripture in nehamiah somewhere about how the families had to camp between the wall sections to protect the city from invaders while rebuilding jerusalem.
the point he made was that since your family is right there you be more inclined to staying awake and defending that section more vigorously.
then he proceeds to use that into gulting me into doing more, reaching out etc.
