  What's Your Favourite Way to Treat a Bad Cold?

  by lifelong humanist in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've been suffering from a really bad cold, with flu-type symptoms, for almost a week now.

  very unusual for me.. it couldn't have come at a worse time, as i've just started working as a self-employed person, working outdoors in all weathers.

  no sick pay, so no money coming in.. i expect that i'll be ok for monday, though.. i'm right in the middle of making a homemade lamb curry.

  i'll keep it short.. you're no doubt aware of the 'if the gb say something that seems odd, just go along with it' thing.

  and the 'do as the gb tell you!

  dont doubt the gb!

  NO WAY - there is no way they will risk another 1975 Fiasco all over again. 36 years has passed and there is just no way they will introduce it now we have the internet. It would open them up to incredible ridicule.

  did you feel guilty ,when ignoring disfellowshipped ones ?

  by looloo in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was having an affair with a pioneer at the time and a girl who was disfellowshipped was in the loo at the hall (she actually had not done aything scriptually wrong (but the elders thought she had ) i tried to smile at her as i felt i was not in a position to judge anyone as guilt was destroying me but she just looked down at the floor , 14 years later we are good friends and both "free".

  when you were "in" and ignored disfellowshipped did you ever think "im not in a position to judge anyone " ?.

  We have an incredible mix and diversity in our congo - it is really nice.

  I could start a thread - who cooks the best food, white sisters, black sistas, hermanas or asian sisters. Now that could get interesting

  Beards vs. Bow Ties: Which is more "immodest" or attention drawing?

  by Open mind in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if you were on a hiring panel for a new chair of the federal reserve board, would either a neatly trimmed beard or a bow tie even register on your dress and grooming "radar"?.

  i'm talking ben bernanke, (current chairman of the fed).

  richard abrahamson, secretary/treasurer of the wtb&ts of pennsylvania since 2000. i looked all over and couldn't find a picture of him, but he's famous for his bow ties.
