She rang and said she was happy and is having a great time, i'm so happy she means the world to me

Thats all...
I was going to start my one and only post about something else, but i'm just so happy... I was gonna tell you guys that I met E WATCHMAN.... he was wondering in the corridors of self deciet... I tried telling him, over and over.. wake up man, wake up... suppose thats a different story.
how to handle this situation: as of june i have stopped going to the meetings.
i do have one sister that tells me i should keep on my schedule of meetings....she currently thinks i am not going to the meetings because i am new here and my husband works out of town a lot and i already remarked that i didn't want to go without him.
i have also told her i have been going thru a depression, with this move, major move #13 and being new here.. well, today, she dropped of 2 watchtowers for this sunday.
Hi Codeblue
I like the one concerning your back. Just say that if you sit down for more than ten minutes at a time, your back seizes up, and creates all kinds of problems.
Theres a whole host of different excuses... family, depression, that kind of thing.
I hope you chose wisely.
there is first here given the scriptural definition of "world", and then the proof that satan controls the world, and why a change of world control must shortly come to pass.
"world" means the peopies of earth organized into forms of government, under the supervision of an invisible power or overlord.
in the bible the word "heaven" is used to represent the invisible part of that rule, while "earth", as there used, means the visible power that rules, and it is "heaven" and "earth" together which constitute the "world".
Pathetic
the october 2003 christianity today has an article entitled "competing claims about islam...is it a religion of peace or of violence?
" selected quotes (no link available):sometimes the religion is shown as violent, promoting jihad (holy war), and providing theological justification for acts of terrorism.
at other times, especially when american adherents to islam are represented, the religion is described as one of peace.. "either view of islam can be demonstrated by just picking certain verses in the qu'ran and certain illustrations from history," fuller seminary professor dudley woodberry says.
Islam is just like any other religion, peaceful at first but has been twisted and manipulated by religious rulers and leaders for their own benefit.
It is not the Quran that teaches hate, it is these religious nuts. Just as the nuts in Christendom do. But these are the exact reasons as to why it's all rubbish... because if God really is all knowing, he would forsee how these books would curse mankind. He would never have allowed them to get into mankinds hands.
Quran, Bible and every other religious book... its all useless. It's maybe a bit harsh, but what this world needs is a good old fashioned religious book burning session.
Religion is the source of ALL evil.
i read this quote in a wt publication, but now i can't find it.
it basically said that in order to be a jw you must agree with all of what the society teaches.
you cannot disagree with any of it.

....eagerly anticipate the global bloodletting of billions of people (the wbts will grind your axe for you so you don't get in trouble with the law), become a prince (in your own mind), be a teacher instead of a student, wear nice clothes instead of janitor work clothes, imagine yourself very intelligent without ever getting an education, feel cock sure that god will vindicate his holy name (and yours along with it.
in other words, show all the people who screwed you over that you really were the smart one), feel very important because even though god has hidden these things from men, he chose to reveal them to you, have your choice of really big expensive houses after the big a hits, save your money by not wasting it on charities, be holy even as jehovah your god is holy, have instant friends without having to go to the trouble of getting to really know them, feel sorry for the misguided (intact) families that attend church, suffer for righteousness sake thereby guaranteeing god's favor, memorize the correct verbage for counseling others (meetings and field serevice), stop 'sighing and groaning' because the wbts will wipe your bum for you, defeat the devil by being on the winning side of a cosmic power struggle, show your loyalty by shunning family members that don't agree with you, possibly meet governing body members at conventions (christ's brothers), eat fresh warm krispy kreme donuts after desparately trying to save lives for 45 minutes on saturday morning, become a bible scholar, save expensive tuition costs by getting the equivalent of a college degree by reading the awake, and last but not least :
Flies and Maggots in a fancy coating.
