    I posted this yesterday on a similar forum, but it was deleted despite there being nothing wrong with it. Indeed, the scandal is one that I, myself, suffered.

    -------------

    Good afternoon from London...

    About an hour or so ago, I decided upon a walk around my local area, what with it being a beautiful day outside - far too pleasant to spend it indoors! As well as just wanting to be outside, there was an alarming lack of teabags in the cupboard, so suddenly I had a noble quest to go with all the vitamin D related sunshine/sunburn. A quest so noble and just that it's fit for song, the use of which will be to inspire the future generations that walk upon this fair isle. Epic, no?

    I ventured out, and what should happen?! I was snared, friends. Snared! By one of your number.

    I was armed with ?1.99
    He was armed with the Bible. And really tall he was, too.

    I couldn't compete, there was no fighting my way out of this. I was trapped. He began to use his weapon to devasating effect. The Bible was opened, his mouth followed, and, well, I was nearly claimed... it wasn't at all disimilar to this scene from Batman where our hero gets a dart in the arse and is almost bent to a will that's not his own.

    Thankfully I held my own, a battle though it was with words as my only defence, when a syringe filled with blood would have been preferable. In the end, I do believe he found me more than a bit unnerving, which was odd. There was lots of closeness initially, as he was trying to dazzle me enough to throw me in a cage and run off with me, but after five minutes he was positively backing away slowly, which resulted in an eventual and hasty retreat. He wouldn't even pray for me... how distressing is that? Words can't do it justice, so I filled my face with junk food instead.

    I would like an apology from your community for having to put up with this bollocks when all I wanted were some bloody teabags!

    It is NOT our community you were faced with; I assure you NOT one of our number as you say!

    I assume you met an ACTIVE JW?

    You are talking to 'the converted back to normal' on this forum!

    Perhaps yoiu should direct your complaint either to your local Kingdom Hall or to the Head Office in Mill Hill.

    If you respect the need for a cup of tea, then do forgive me. Yesterday was a legitimate outrage, and I felt the need for this to be recognised!

    :P

    running out of tea bags can be bad for your mental health.....

    You know, maybe you're not far from the truth. I'm summoned far too often to some mental health outpost, and attacked with drugs which doctors are really quite ignorant about. Maybe upping my tea intake further still could make all the difference?

    For now, I'll settle for being able to travel three miles in any direction without losing my poor, all too often scattered, marbles. That, too, will set me free.

    Are you nice and free? I do hope so. It's not much fun being on the other side of the fence.

    Tea is a healthy drink, so is beer, and beer is good for the soul.

    Tell us a little more about your converstion with the bible thumper, was he a JW ? how did you unnerve him ?

    I used to be a street-preaching JW, before it was encouraged by the WT, when they were still fixated with knocking on the doors of empty houses as the people walked past !

    I was unnerved by a vicar who showed me from the bible that Jesus was divine. His "anti-witness" to me was not sufficient to get me to examine my beliefs as I should have done, it was two decades later that I walked away. No one else ever rattled my cage, they just grabbed the mags and ran mostly !

    Welcome to this wonderful forum, Glengette tea was the best, I don't know if you can get it now, Yorkshire is good.

    Beer is better.

    James4Tea . . . welcome to our Forum my good man . . .

    Let me get this straight . . . you have had your day spoiled by some zealous JW without an off switch

    Well . . . you've come to the right place . . . they spoiled my day at one time too . . . actually about 10,950 of them

    Occasionally there are some JW "apologists" here . . . but there not into "apologising" . . . unless you accept a Free Home Bible Study that is . . . but this is not a course I would recommend.
