  my wife and son were talking about going to warwick to tour the new facility.

  apparently the local dubs are getting together and chartering a bus.

  jokingly, i asked my son: "are they charging admission to tour warwick?

  Tour Warwick? Maybe if you slip the guide fifty bucks he might take you to the secret apostate library.

  Now that would be the only thing worth seeing.

  Stranger asks about your kids mental wellness. ..

  by purrpurr in

  2. bible

  last night at the meeting there was a suggested presentation about the new mags, which cover the issue of depression in minors.

  the jw jumps straight from "hi how are ya" to "how is your kids mental well-being " and of course the hh is more than happy to discuss the inner workings of their child's mind with a stranger whose just knockedmon their door(!).

  if it was me i'd be majorly creeper out!.

  JWs have been asking inappropriate personal questions and of householders for sometime now, it's kinda been their signature move at the door that distinguishes them from mormons and avon.

  They have hides like a rhino when it comes to intrusive and would be the perfect people to sell adult diapers door to door for this reason.

  Sparlock is making his rounds again

  2. experiences

  i was at the meeting last night and the dreadful video about caleb and sparlock was forced upon the audience.

  honestly, i had forgotten how bad it was.

  the mother's manipulative over-reaction and caleb's acceptance that his toy was evil.

  Has anyone else seen this video on JW Broadcasting?

  by NikL in

  so i was checking out the website to see what the february broadcast was all about before i watched it with my jw wife.. on the front page was this video.... https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodbible/pub-jwbai_201607_1_video.

  i watched it and pretended i had never been a jw.. if you pretend you don't understand their particular language it makes for a interesting (if not vague) watch.. btw i've seen several of the actors before.

  jw version of movie stars?

  2017 Circuit Assembly: Lesbians at school demonstration

  by darkspilver in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  steve2: is there some way this can be presented so that it is crystal clear what was actually in the demonstrations and what was added?

  i guess some will think it should be obvious - but this is where misunderstandings arise because we end up wrongly attributing something to jw organization that was never said.. circuit assembly theme: maintain love for jehovah!.

  note to speaker: warmly encourage young ones to prove their friendship with jehovah by observing his commandments and defending his standards.

  @OrphanCrow - " ....witness world doesn't really have problem with male homosexuals at all..."

  Yeah, I was thinking similar thoughts. They don't mind if men are gay as long as they don't dress like they're gay and talk like they're gay and arrange the throw cusshions like they're gay.

  Women cannot be lesbians at all, ever because it's disgusting, full stop end of story.

  What has been your own personal experience of shunning?

  by UnshackleTheChains in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am interested in finding out on a small scale the extent of which shunning has impacted on you personally.. my own experience is that when i faded about 12 years ago.

  the woman whose house the book study was held at (and who was virtually a neighbour) walked right past me in my own street.

  i remember it so well.

  Not DFed.

  Not DAed

  Not "known" as apostate.

  My crimes? Inactive and not at meetings. I am shunned with impunity even by people I barely knew.

  If you asked any one of these people any doctrinal question and the smart money is on them not being able to answer. But ask them for a list of who they are not supposed to associate with and they would be able to rattle off a list of names no worries at all.

  Why are they picking on lesbians anyway, girls are not allowed to have any positions of responsibilty within the borg. Though I suppose they hate it when women get all uppity by wearing trousers but even so surely gay men pose more of a threat to their male centric witness world.
