i own five tarot card decks, and use them often.
not so often that i live my life by them, but enough.
one deck is one i use more then others, as i feel more of a connection with the cards.
I am interested in all that sort of thing. If someone did my cards, i would take it on board. Depends on how accurate i felt they were.
i feel that headship is one of the most damaging doctrines taught in the wtbts as well as other fundy religions.
it is promoted as a way to have happier, healthier marriages and families.
in theory, maybe so.
Well, being the stubborn person that i am....i dont know if i like the headship thing, ..yes husband, no husband, ok husband...
I married my husband as an equal..........we both have an equal say within the relationship

Fred gets home late one night and his wife, Linda,
says, "Where in the hell have you been?" Fred replies,
"I was out getting a tattoo"
"A tattoo?" she screamed. "What kind of tattoo did
you get?"
"I got a hundred dollar bill on my privates," he said
proudly.
"What the hell were you thinking?" she said, shaking
her head in disdain.
"Why on earth would an accountant get a hundred dollar
bill tattooed on his privates?"
"Well, one, I like to watch my money grow.
Two, once in a while I like to play with my money.
Three, I like how money feels in my hand.
And, lastly, instead of you going out shopping, you can stay right
here at home and blow a hundred bucks anytime you want."

so my brother and i have been having talks about what will happen when our dad passes away eventually.
most of his brothers and sisters have died in their 50's or early 60's.
i flat out refuse to attend any part of the service that would be done at the kingdom hall.
You should go to your parents funeral no matter where its being held.......its your mum or dad.
I would definitely go.....so what if anyone feels uncomfortable.
If you dont go, they will still say, ......."he couldnt even go to the hall for his dads funeral".
You wont win.

many thanks, frog
There must be one in Perth australia around the 22 july. my sister is coming from interstate and will be passing through to see me on the way home
"i have hope toward god .
over the hope of resurrection of the dead i am being
the resurrection hope draw them closer to god?
Very interesting.
one section especially was the following that i just dont understand.
To comfort these, the WTS has to once again stress the resurrection and remind the faithful that the Bible only promises this to the great crowd as a group and not to individuals. Neat way to cover all the bases.
How can it be promised to a group and not to individuals when it is individuals that make up the group.
recently i was amazed to read in another thread that jw females are not even allowed to walk up and down the aisles counting those in attendance.
the poster said jw women literally "don't count" - a brilliant play on words.
i guess i had never thought about it before, but it got me wondering about all the behind-the-scene work jw females do, but their invisibility in the public arena.
My mothers coffin was in the hall (she was cremated), my friends coffin was in the hall and there are others.
I personally, have never seen an open coffin in a KH
