funny bethel stories
by joelbear inthought i'd share some of the adventures.. one day we had roast beef at lunch which was one of the more delicious meals at bethel.
i used roast beef to make sandwiches for the evenings and weekends.. the rule was, you were allowed to go to any table after dismissal to take leftovers.
i was approaching a table with a full dish of roast beef when a sister rushed up and grabbed the dish and took off with it.

Biology Lesson for the gals
by Francois inelsewhere in the active topics list is a great post from wasasister dealing in a very wise manner with women's hormonal cycle.
the viewpoint and outlook contained in her post was to my mind very well done, thoughtful, considerate, and made a number of points that would be helpful to keep in mind in dealing with the male/female dynamic.. so i hope (and believe) that wasa won't mind if i use her post to springboard to one of my own - the mirror image of hers.. wasa makes a very good point in saying that women are jerked around by the hormones in their blood every month.
and lots of us know at least one woman whose pms reaches truly epic proportions.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.......
by JW72 ini wonder would christians (jw's included) still serve god if it were god's will for them to die in this world and not live forever?!?!?!!.
if u think like that, it makes u realise just how selfish it all is to believe that!!.
they may say that they would but i doubt it!!!!.

JW72,
There are many groups within Judaism that do NOT beleive in a resurrection of any sort, yet still serve God. The same can be said to be true of the Sauducees in Jesus time. I do honestly think that a number of Christians (I'll even include some JW's in that term) would serve God without a hope of Resurrection. What would I personally do. I honestly don't know, but even Atheists can be altruistic, so why not Christians.

Honey, Have You Seen the Remote?
by GinnyTosken ini wonder if this tidbit will appear in "watching the world"?.
ginny.
honey, have you seen the remote?.

Yerusalyim
Nope, I'm not gonna say it, ahh sheesh, yes I will. It's for those gals who are robots in bed anyhow, they need a remote. (Man the fun I could have with something like that, sneak into the wife's place of work and trigger a few with out her knowing it. Give it about a year and take a remote into the KH during the Public Talk, trigger off all those JW women who get the implant all at once. The Elders will think they have a Pentecostal revival goin on, or a demon possesion.

Biology Lesson for the guys
by wasasister inwarning: i am about to discuss a rather delicate subject.
if the words menstruation or period gross you out, please stop reading now.. i am going to attempt to keep names out of this discussion, as my thoughts are directed to the general population, not one individual.
i am fairly certain, however, that someone may take this personally and react with anger and insults.

THE OPINIONS EXPRESSED IN THIS POST IN NO WAY REPRESENT THE VIEWS OF YERUSALYIM WHILE AT HOME WITH HIS WIFE, WHO IS A LOVING CARING HUMAN BEING EVEN AND ESPECIALLY DURING HER MENSTRAL CYCLE< WHICH I WOULD NOT EVEN KNOW WAS OCCURING IF SHE DIDN"T GIVE ME THE "AVOID BLOOD" WARNING.

More Contradictions In The Bible ???
by Big Jim inintroduction.
it is a central dogma of all fundamental christians that the bible is without error.
they teach this conclusion by "reasoning" that god cannot be the author of false meaning and he cannot lie.

Yerusalyim
Big Jim,
Sure wish you would limit these to jsut a few at a time, I don't have time right now to adequately answer all of them. You seem however, in most cases to be contrasting the First Covenant with the fulfilled covenant. If these are serious questions I can answer them one at a time over a period. Let me know. ALL MY RESPECT I really like you.

Contradiction?????
by Yerusalyim inon page 132 of the knowledge book it says: who are the "superior authorities"?
paaul's words in succeeding verses show that they are human governmental authorities.
(romans 13:1-7; titus 3:1) jehovah did not originateman's governmental authorities, but they exist by his permission.

Yerusalyim
God_Knows,
I actually think there are better scriptures to show that governmental authority is given by God other than this reading on LOVE. Oh well, to each their own.
DINS,
I wonder if this woman will be counseled by the Elders or even DF'd for her offense? The JW reading of not judging is poppy cock. It means we are not to judge someone's eternal salvation, we can not know their heart. Corinthians makes it clear that we can INDEED stand in judgement as to whether a crime has been committed and if we can do so in a Christian congregation then we can do so in a court of Law.

Open letter to Dr. Laura (re: homosexuality)
by Joseph Joachim ini found this open letter hilarious, and certainly not off-topic for us .... jj.
dr. laura schlessinger is a us radio personality.
recently, she said that as an observant orthodox jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to leviticus 18:22 & cannot be condoned under any circumstance.

Yall ease up on Dr. Laura, at least she has the balls to stand up for her beleifs, and she ain't NEARLY as intolerant as most Elders I've met.

Yerusalyim
Is it possible to sue the Congregation or Society for access to the record considering it contains personal information on the individual. Kinda like the ability to access a personal credit report?
Oh, how rude of me, Welcome to the Board BENDRR, tell us about yourself.
