I was watching the telly
by uriah ini was in bed watching the telly this morning (what, i hear you ask, not at the meeting?
no actually) and the prog was "the world at war" on the splendid bbc2 - this is quality tv for all you americans that don't have quality tv and have to wait for ours to air over there - and this german was saying that he was present at the rallies where hitler was giving his speeches and that he looked around at everyone, their faces and apparent joy and ferver.
he said he listened to the speeches and understood the words but could not believe them.

Cold Comfort for Asaph
by uriah inyou may remember the psalm where asaph complains about the wicked 'seemingly' (tm) wts getting away with it.
the psalm goes on and finishes with asaph saying that on unsteady ground you (jehovah) have placed them.
the jw often quote this (i did) and consoled myself with it.

Is everything we do choice?
by uriah inwhen you listen to people talking about this and that; a situation they are in, how awful it is etc., i get to thinking, well why don't you change it then.
if you suggest that to them they come up with a lot of excuses as to why they remain as they are.
they may get really angry with you saying 'are you mad?

E-Watchman - What's his Game?
by uriah inbelow i copy a question and part of the answer.i have highlighted in red what i consider to be the salient part of the question.
if you go and look at the full answer you will see that he does not answer the question at all but pads out his reply, casting red herrings into the water so that it appears to be an answer and by the time you have read to the end you have, more or less forgotten what the question was.
this reminds me of a mormon i used to correspond with.

Where can I see originals
by uriah ini have been reading various letter - walter salter, olin moyle etc and wondered if anyone knows if there is a scanned image of the original.
i noticed, when reading the letters, that there were a lot of typo's which led me to think that they may be inaccurate and the like.
like most of us i just want the truth and not someones axe grinding so any pointers would be appreciated.
