How many 'real" friends did you ever really have in ther "truth'
by The Lone Ranger insure we got to know a lot of people, we knew a lot more people then the average person, but how many real friends did we ever have?
a friend that we could trust, that we could confine in.
i can say i had just one, bro x and even then i still had to be careful, bro x is an elder now and he tells me that im the only real friend hes ever had, he cant freely talk to anyone.

"Birth" Announcement
by Abaddon ini am proud to announce the delivery of a bouncing 'baby' girl, 120 or so pounds and about 63 inches long, after an uneventful 11 hour drive.. in other words, i've "imported a daughter" (she's posted a little here under the handle abbadette).
she's sixteen now and has decided to come and live with her dad.
as this involves changing country, leaving her mum, brother, sister and friends behind, and going to school where she doesn't (yet) understand a word of the language it is (in my biased opinion) really rather brave.

27.5 Trillion Disappeared?
by sammielee24 inthere was some belief that portions of the social security balances were removed to fund other govt ventures - which is why there was such a push on for bush to get people to dissolve the social security.
27.5 trillion is a lot of money - the implication of what bush is doing is being talked about round the financial world and not in a good way..... greg szymanski.

A Thread To Note Questions That ThirdWitness Is Incapable Of Answering....
by hillary_step inat this stage i feel it prudent to start a thread on which all those who have been involved in debating thirdwitness and his behind the scenes cronies can begin to list questions that he is unwilling or incapable of answering.. i do this for two major reasons :.
1) to prove to all the thousands of lurking jw's that thirdwitness and his orchestra of theological mice are actually not able to defend wts theology without ignoring pertinent questions that seriously compromise their arguments.. 2) to prove to all reading this board, including the moderators, that thirdwitness is here not to discuss his/their theology ( which differs in some respects from wts theology ) but merely to preach their ideology.. i will be away from the board until tomorrow evening, but as you might have noticed i have posed numerous questions on various threads which thirdwitness has ignored, bypassed or bluffed his way past.
these will all be listed.

Let's Be REAL
by purplesofa inabout prayer, about god, about life, about who we are.. the other day i was taking a call from my daughter at bootcamp.
she is distressed and i found myself comforting her by saying remember jehovah loves you.. while driving and thinking, i asked god to look after her while she was in bootcamp......uggggggggggg............ then i thought......why don't i tell her to call upon her own skills, to think, tell myself to remember that i raised a smart thinking girl that can take care of herself.. why discount the work that we have done in raising our children or discount our own determination, drive and ambition?.
i found more comfort and peace with this thinking than handing it over to some mysterious god, that i felt like if was truely her "father" would not have let her go to the army in the first place.. i love and respect creation......nature, the planet, and i am perfectly happy in how it got here to be a mystery to me......it is no more mysterious to me than some being creating it.. my thoughts for the morning.. purps

Sorcery is a Viable Pioneer Recruiting Technique
by KennyC in"good sense stress", was the description of an elder for a circuit overseer's undue emphasis on the words "the children are helping mommy and daddy to...pioneer.... yes".
he said this during a talk of his in the early 1990's.
upon going to a pioneer meeting on that saturday and seeing him first hand using his hands in a circular motion around a pioneers face who was sitting too close in front of him, he stated "did you ever notice that little glow they have?
