Rahab, Jael, Jezebel, there are just sooooo many great female role model/stereotypes in the Bible to choose from where do you start.

What do ya think would happen?
by brandnew inlets say..an assembly is arranged at a stadium for 30,000 jws to meet.
now lets say only about 1,000 jws show up.. do you think the show would go on?, or do you think it would be canceled because it would not generate enough money?.

They would announce in the accounts report aka the "sermon on the amount" that the deficit in expenses for the assembly stands at $29,000, so dig deep brothers and sisters.

Dropping in unannounced and claiming "they were just passing by" is one of JWs favourite weapons.
Catch you in an unguarded moment, have you at a disadvantage etc. I view these drop in visits as a kind of spiritual litmus test designed to gauge how hospitable and receptive you will be to them, so they can measure that all important spiritual "health." I hate them too, so intrusive and rude. Like the secret police turning up at the door.
Though, if you are trying to be reinstated it's not completely unexpected, that they would call in.

God I would so like to WT's charity status challenged everywhere, how the hell did they ever qualify?
They do squat for the community, are anti-education, anti-family, anti-choice, anti-voting, hell, just about anti-everything!
Yet Joe and Jane Taxpayer subsidizes it all, while WT does snow-angels in it's money!
Bring it on UK Charities Commish - investigate the hell out of them.

Making friends in the "truth"
by Jordandemm inwhat is it about making friends in the organisation am i the only one who had found it tough?
don't get me wrong there was some good people but unfortunately there was also a lot of egotism, back stabbing, jealousy and gossiping.
i could never really fit in any group, everytime i thought i had found a group it was as if i would be sidelined or ditched.

They are horrible people. I don't why people say they're soooo nice.
Yeah, if you find fake, back-stabbing, gossip mongers to be "nice."

Yup, so many great songs especially the ones that were off-limits as a JW.
For eg I love dancing to the song When A Fire Starts to Burn by Disclosure but I would never have admitted to that as dub. Devil music!!!!
