Yes,
I was that dorky when I was a Witness. When I read their dialogue now, it makes me shudder. We can make fun. We can ridicule. We should never forget, that at one time that is how our mind worked. If we can remember, we can help those who still think that way.
Howdy,
For those who are as lazy as I am, the actual post:
What Do JW Believe? Bookmarkerits has all the topics and scripture and fits nicely in you bible if folded in half
I sent it to everyone on my list, if you didn't receive one just e-mail me and i'll get it right out to you!
Perhaps they'll send one to our private e-mails if we request?
I can remember back a year - and I know a gawd-awful lot of people who would have said "Now, that's a good idea! Thanks for thinking of me."
I would have been one of them - there's just so many things to remember as to what JW's believe/don't believe at any given time. Handy little reference card to help.
Of course, as Larc mentioned, JW's can come here and we'll help them remember what they do/don't believe, politely - on occasion.

Waiting,
I would request the bookmark to help me remember, but it would be outdated within 6 months anyway.
Slipnslidemaster: "In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. "
- Martin Luther King Jr.
I remember doing this working on the mainframe computers: a Programmers Reference Card. They were 2 or 3 sheets of cardboard, printed both sides, folded over to slip in your pocket.
This is something that has bothered me with all the failed prophecies, backing-up ('tacking'), flip-flops and re-groupings over the years. Who remembers enough to keep out of hot water???
Fence-sitting is easier. 'Interesting, brother', 'good point, there',
'yup, gotta hand it too you', 'oops, gotta go, pulling a double shift...'

it is scary looking back- for i too would have been right in line to get a bookmark and so would many of us here
as you mentioned it truly shows a MINDSET that jw have developed over the years that give you this type of reaction to a "bookmarK'

If this is the way things are gonna be in the "New System" then you can count me O-U-T.
######i'm with you - like i used to tell my wife
