I've seen them several times in both large towns and small villages as well as agricultural fares. To me it seems like cheating, far easier to sit on ur bum for a few hours and have people approach u rather than go to random strangers doors!! I wonder who gets to have that easy preaching option, probs the elders...

JW Witnessing Trolleys. To approach or ignore what is your preference and why?
by KateWild ini saw two brothers this morning next to the main train station in liverpool city centre this morning.
they were not actively approaching anyone.
what i found strange was that they were from a cong that has different territory, so i don't know why they were there.. anyway i knew them both, and they know i was df'd, i was in my car and couldn't park up for a chat, but i did beep and wave to them as i drove passed and they waved back.

WOW! I'm reeling here trying to take it all in. There have been unbelievably major and numerous changes in a relatively short space of time. It's incredible!! The GB seem lost and panicky, flustering on the next move. I'm gonna reread this thread (yet again) and comment on a couple of them

Dreams
by Bella15 inso the other night i had a dream.
in it and i was in someone else's house, first scene i was cleaning the floor and found money, coins, in one of the crevices, second scene husband looks at me i look at him, hmmmm some chemistry, third scene i am in bed sleeping when i feel someone entering the bed, i know it is a man and when i opened my eyes i could see he has 3 green eyes.
he had a third eye on his forehead but at the same level of the other two.

how did u feel about the dreams? scared, happy, out of control, etc? how did u feel when u woke up?
i find that once i can answer those questions, I'm much better able to figure out the meanings. it's a personal thing rather than x in a dream always means y in ur life, ya know?

People Think JW's are Bat-Shit Crazy
by AlphaMan inhad an interesting discussion at work today.
sat down at a table with 4 of my younger workers.
somehow it came up that one's mother was a jehovah witness, and one had dated a jw girl before.

The jw who called on me today proudly stated that an elder told him that all jws are a little bit weird and crazy. It helps apparently. I said, I left so I wonder what that says about me. Was i too weird or not weird enough?! He laughed at that :D

So I got called on today...
by Thumblina inpoor sod.
i felt quite sorry for him in the end.. for context, i was brought up as a jw since i was very young.
i left 6 years ago (faded) a little before turning 30. i was on here a lot around that time but under a different profile that's no longer active.. for the past 18 months, i'm back living in the territory of the congregation i grew up in.

@Pams girl
I would like to think there was one or two things I said that at the very least made him think. Towards the end he asked me to keep an open mind about what he'd said, which I said I would (PAH! ) . I followed up by saying that if there was anything I had said that made him curious that I hoped he would give himself permission to look up more about it later when he was back in his home. You never know I suppose....

@Baltar and Apognophos I would LOVE to know what was going on in his life aroung the time he gave himself the choice of Cult No.1 or Cult No.2. I didn't dare ask today but if he ever has the balls to return I will. I mean if that's gonna improve your life, how bad was it previously?!

@Laika yeah he was alone, although two other witnesses walked past as he was talking to me. I didn't know him but did know one of the jws who walked by. Got a very 'unchristian' stare from her too!

Delighted to see these wt comments are still being done! so helpful to cut thru the cult talk and see the self-serving point their actually trying to make.

Any Suggestions on what to say if elders ask why you stopped going in FS?
by BU2B ini was curious what might be some good things to say if i am questioned by the elduurs about my decline in fs.
anything too honest may get me a jc (although that would be for the best in the end..) the co visit is this week so they may be getting more agressive than usual.
