  If ARMAGEDDON Came, Would YOU Repent?

  by Cold Steel in

  the day finally comes.

  you get up one day with the nagging feeling that it's going to be different.

  you get dressed, get in the car, then notice how dark the weather's getting.

  i guess tickets will be given to those who qualify.

  i am usure if all in the congregation are invited, or just a selected group within selected congregations.

  Former Long Time Elder - Judicial Committees

  by James Jackson in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  when i first was appointed as an elder, i could not wait to be on a judicial committee.

  it semed like most hearings invovled middle age men and women cheating on their mates because either they had married early or felt that were being neglected by their mate.

  most times i felt i need to take a long hot shower after a hearing.. the toughest part was seeing these sweet young children grow up in "the truth", and now you are about to judge their future based on their repentance.

  Price gouging after natural disasters ... where should capitalism end?

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm sure you're all getting bored by my discussion of the recent 2013 flooding in southern alberta and flood insurance but as you can imagine it's on everyone's mind here right now.. the latest issue in the news now is price gouging and overcharging after a natural disaster.. some claim to have been overcharged by people profiteering after the floods.. some of the cases seem like misunderstandings - if you go to a 7/11 that normally sells bottled water individually and you want to buy a whole flat of it, i don't think you should suddenly expect costco prices for it.. but others do seem like they are taking advantage ... or are they?.

  one could argue that high prices will smooth out demand and prevent greedy people from stockpiling more than they need that they may otherwise buy and hoard.. isn't it the ultimate manifestation of free-market economics, sullply and demand to set the price?

  capitalism at work?.

  The CO and his wife have no home

  by not bitter in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know some have a flat or apartment that they can go to on the odd week off but i believe that the majority have no base to call home.. my parents have the co and wife stayng this week again and i asked my mum about it.

  she says that if they do get the any time off they go to her mothers to stay but thats only every few months.

  i just can't imagine having to live out of a suitcase in someone elses home constantly.. how to they not crack up.
