Hey! Wait a Second!!!
by SixofNine insomething just hit me.. you know how witnesses love to remind you that the early christian congregations had problems, sometimes even big problems, whenever modern day problems and inconsistancies are brought to their attention?.
as much as my gut and heart hate the glibness and triteness of that, it is difficult to argue against.
but i just thought of a key difference.

Everyone!!!
by SixofNine inplease, stop right now with the trying to prove that danielle is not a woman.. if some folks' god can be a benevolent, extreeee happy, fat black woman, then danielle can be a hot nasty redhead who wants to dominate while she facilitates my return to the narrow path.

Does this ring true for you?
by SixofNine ini was just thinking about, and contrasting, the thoughts i have now, with the general mental inclination, spiritually speaking, that i carried for all the years of my life till a few months ago.. thinking this about myself, and perhaps jw's in general, tell me if it rings true for you:.
i thought i knew where to turn for food that was spiritually satisfying.
turns out, i was getting a spiritual pacifier.. i thought that i was satisfied, spiritually.

All my life...
by SixofNine in....i have always heard the term, "dedication", used as part and parcle of the term/act of baptism.
you know, "dedication and baptism".. just recently, i've been wondering, why?
it's not that i don't believe dedicating oneself to jehovah is a noble thing, i'm just wondering what the reasoning is for formally linking dedication with baptism.. have i missed something really simple here?
