Reflections (I must be tired or shumpthink)
by Brummie inlast week i visited brummie land and it gave me a lot to think about, in particular my jw grandmother and here is why.
she was born in 1914 and was of the generation that was waiting for the new system to usher in paradise....she waited and waited .
she would have been around when all the bible students were waiting for 1925 to usher in the new system.

Does Religion drive you nuts?
by JH inwith all the different religions and beliefs that contradict each other, do you still believe that one of them is the true religion?
the more we try to understand god, the more we are lost.
the more we pray, the more we are deceived.

XMas illuminations on your house
by Simon ini guess this is more of a usa thing, but in the spirit of international friendship we have decided to put some effort into things this year.
he he ... this house is round the corner from angharad's parents and he raises money for charity.
the picture doesn't really do justice to just how bright it is (you can see the glow before you get there).

JWS NOT FREE TO FALL IN LOVE
by heyfea inyou know how the society pushes every one to do more, and more, and more....and those who don't do more without a super valid reason (like you're in a coma), are considered not "spiritual", right?
ok, they also tell single brothers and sisters who are pioneers or bethelites that they should only consider marrying those with the same spiritual goals....in other words....choose some one who "loves" jehovah just as much, meaning one who preaches 120 hours a month or works in bethel,etc.....right?
....well i think it is so unfair.. it's already bad enough that we cannot look at another human being from the opposite sex because they are not witnesses (never mind that they are excellent human beings, ones that would ashame many jws)....we also have to keep from falling in love with a pioneer or bethelite (if you are not one, because he or she will not give you the time of day) or from falling in love with a mere publisher ( if you are a pioneer , because the elders will suggest to let it go, and they will try and try until you give it up)( i've witnessed a huge case...that ended in a bethelite and a pioneer dying, litterally) isn't that appaling?
