Well, let's see. I don't have a lot of free time and what little I do gets sucked up by this @#$% computer and my @#$% job... OK. I feel better now. Onward.
- Dance, dance and more dance (BTW... the shag is also a swing-type dance in the South particularly the Carolinas...go figure)
- Read (mostly Christian)
- Play with my animals that I don't have (because I don't have the time to give them)
- Travel (which I don't have the money to do)
- Bible reading/study
- Crocheting

JWs and the Amish
by Silverleaf inthis morning's paper had an article on the amish [nothing in depth, just about how they sell their wares at local markets] but it brought to mind the ideas of the amish - they want no part of the world, they don't like to call attention to themselves, don't baptize little children, and they shun those who leave the faith.
i was just wondering if anyone here could shed some light on how jws view the amish.
are they impressed?

Who are the 144,000?
by EXJWBrit ini swallowed and believed such much shit when i was a jw that i have a few more questions to ask anyone who has the answers.
the 144,000 is a big gripe of mine........ right, i was told that the 144,000 found out they were one of the anointed when they had a flash of "revelation" at some point and truly believed it or they had known since they were a child.
what a load of shit!

Why did the number of them steadily dwindle away until about the mid-1980's and then seemed to halt at around 8,000 and has been in that range ever since?Anybody got any ideas on this one?
dsgal: The WTS teaches that if one of the 144,000 leaves the fold (as in disfellowshipped or disassociated), another "younger" chosen one who believes he/she is anointed can take their place.
How convenient! They have a made-up answer for everything, don't they.

WT literature in the trash can
by Nordic ini am born in the truth.now i am 40 years old and have thrown all my wt literature in the trash can.i am ashamed that i have been in the watchtower orginazation and in my prayer to jehovah i have said that i only belong to him.

Welcome, Nordic.
I, too, tossed a bunch of WT junk. My personal viewpoint was that it was totally dangerous garbage that I didn't want anyone else to read so hence I did not feel comfortable with selling it to someone else. It all needs to disappear in a trash heap!
Just another opinion!

Trot just received this E-mail:
Greetings, I am Paul Baba, Bank Manager of ORIENT BANK OF NIGERIA, Lagos Branch. I have urgent and very
confidential business proposition for you. On November 1997, an American oil consultant/contractor with the Nigerian
National Petroleum Corporation, Mr. Barry Kelly made a numbered time (Fixed) deposited for twelve calendar months,
valued at US$25,000,000.00 (Twenty-five Million Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his
forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract
employers, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation that Mr. Barry Kelly died from an automobile accident. On further
investigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless. I therefore
made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Barry Kelly did not declare any next of kin in all his official documents,
including his Bank Deposit paperwork. This sum of US$25,000,000.00 is still sitting in the Bank and the interest is being
rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will come forward to claim it. According to the Nigerian
Law, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Nigerian Government if nobody applies
to claim the funds. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr.
Barry Kelly so that the fruits of this old mans labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt officials. This is simple, I will
like you to provide me immediately with your full names and address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary
documents and affidavits, which will put you in place as the next of kin. We shall employ the services of two attorneys for
drafting and notarization of the WILL and obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favor
the transfer. A bank account in any part of the world, which you provide, will then facilitate the transfer of this money to you
as the beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 60% for me and 40%
for you. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and my position as the
Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please reply immediately
via the private email address below. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents
that will help you understand. Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most
profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country. Awaiting your urgent
reply via email : [email protected]
CONFIDENTIAL my foot! Invest HIS share in MY country? Right!
