    A Witness family is staying with us next week for the Convention! Brother X has been pressuring me to attend. First I said I would go on Sunday.....but he said he would love me to go all 3 days. Now I've decided I won't go at all. I don't think I can Fake it anymore. Everyone knows me and the wife are in-active and if I go I will be bombed with "love" and "encouragement." Lots of Witnesses are invading my city and one Brother told me he would come visit and "take me out Witnessing." NO FRIGGIN CHANCE!!!

    Gee, I'm so sorry to hear about your wicked intestinal flu, mate!

    You know, the intestinal flu that you're about to catch.

    If you don't want to go then say "I don't want to go".

    Yeah, I'd go. I'd go stay somewhere else.

    Tell'em to shut the lights off and lock the doors.

    The only reason to go is to take a recording device and get PROOF of the crazyness being dished out to share with us.

    Sounds more like your just a free ride for a room....if you do go then it starts the cycle all over again, if you feel at peace

    now with your decision why rock the boat...

    cheers!

    Don't be talked into doing anything you are not comfortable with.

    Your family should be grateful for your hospitality and not using it against you.

    That's my feeling too. Althought I wouldn't go all three days-----just go the one day---maybe Saturday and make sure the tape-recorder's got good batteries in it.
