WT Society Changes Definitions of Words to Control JW's for Their Agenda
by flipper inmy wife and i were discussing this and thought of a few examples of words that the wt society changes meanings on in order to accomplish their own self serving agenda .
the term - generation - definition in webster's new world dictionary : " generation - a single stage or degree in the succession of natural descent ( father, son, and grandson are three generations ) .
the average period ( about thirty years ) between the birth of one generation and that of the next .

I've got one voice telling me to stay in this organisation despite what I know and what I feel so that I don't lose my family.... the other voice is telling me to leave. I don't know which voice to listen to....

I can find out things way before my elder hubby does.. LOL
I can have a vent when I've had enough
I can learn things I'd not thought of before
I can sit in the 'peanut gallery' and watch people get verbally mad at each other (fun..... sometimes)

Interesting experience last night
by Gojira_101 ini was hired to interpret for a church event in a neighboring town last night.
i did have a brief moment of thinking demon's would be jumping out to get me as i walked through the front doors of the church, hahahaha, not really, but it did feel awkward at first and i stuck very close to the other interpreter who asked me to help her.
i was definitely out of my comfort zone.. anyway last night i met james walker from the watchmen fellowship.

Rooster, I've been here just over a year now and I guess I felt pretty much the same as you. I notice some new ones jump in feet first and seem to make friends (or at least make themselves noticed) almost immediately. Just take it slowly, get to know people by reading their comments and add your own when you feel like it and you'll soon find the ones you seem to have something in common with. If you're like me it'll take a several months! LOL

BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME.....let's rebuild!
by Terry inokay we've all beat our chest, lamented and throttled the dead horse of aawa.. time to move on!.
i suggest those of us on j-w.n who care about creating something the right way take the trouble to get the framework going.. let's do the grunt work and get the nattering, debates, naming and organizing already pre-approved so that "others" who have the talent, ability, motivation and resources can move in and turn the key!.
because it was not done before.. there is more wisdom on this discussion board in our vast numbers than there could possibly be in a virtual boardroom with 8 people brain-storming.. that isn't an insult--it is just a statistical fact!.

he noticed his wife and daughter spending a lot of time morning noon and night on facebook, it almost seemed like that is all they did, so as a spiritual head decided to see what they were constantly looking at, "let me see what you are spending so much time looking at on facebook said the elder".
the wife explained this is how we keep in contact with the "friends", elder started to look at her page and she was correct, there he found friends in the cong.
