in the united states i keep hearing about how nobody sees the witness is going door-to-door and more, or at least not as often as they used to.
i also heard a report from england recently which stated to the same effect.. what do you think?
do you think the internet is the watchtower society's worst nightmare?.
Yes, I believe it will....it's doin' a helluva better job than those who picket outside assembly sites....direct confrontation won't do it....but their own search for facts WILL....

have any of you on this forum, ever met up with anyone considered famous?
i've met a great deal of people over the years.
one of my most memorable: dennis leary, drinking a few pints with him as he sang "margaritaville" from the jukebox.
Great thread, ya topic bandit, Rayz! LOL! Matter of fact, I had it up NEXT on my list of topics to start this morning when I logged on and saw YOURRRRRRRS.......
Anyways....yes...I've met Wayne Hilmer, owner of Omni Aircraft and F.Lee Bailey, famous attorney, when I worked for a charter airlines (lear jets) in D.C.....hmmmm....and when I worked as a stripper in Dallas, near Love Field, I met Bob Crane, Hogan's Heroes, Larry Storch, F Troop, Porter Wagoner, Grand Ol' Oprey, and various comedians who visited our club...oh...and also Mark White, former governor of Texas...one night he spent HOURS in our club...told me that it was better to sit and talk with me than psych therapy...LOL!

i think this is a question worth considering - just how extreme will witnesses become?.
first, the hierarchy: there are numerous accounts stretching back for years of gb members skipping meetings,.
ignoring field service and treating "vital" doctrine in a cavalier fashion.
VERY, Metatron....the sister that was sent to spy on us revealed that from her conversation with (Brothel name dropped in here) from Brothel, they were determined to become even stricter....and they HAVE! That was back in the early '90's....

hi, i thought i might share this with you, i copied it from another web board that i belong to and although it might not be "christian specific" i thought that i might share...... .
spiritual burnout.
burnout is a condition of physical and emotional exhaustion as a result of.
Thank you for posting this, NT....it fits in quite well with the 3 Part Psych Issues I posted on leaving an abusive cult....do you mind if I C&P this to use for helping others making their exodus?

we've probably all had bad experiences with defective building or repair jobs, but our reactions would never have reached the limit to which the borg has gone.
in one of the wts' study books, the r&f are told:.
"with just as much zeal as ever for the house of god's worship, the heavenly high priest jesus christ will see to it that the closing words of zechariah's prophecy are fulfilled: "and there will no more prove to be a canaanite [or, tradesman] in the house of jehovah of armies in that day"- zechariah 14:21. the designation canaanite was synonymous with "tradesman".
Oz? Mebbe not so bizarre (sic?) ....after all....the term "tradesmen" includes the JWs, dudnit? Don't they "sell" their wares for profit?....don't care if they call it "donations"....it isn't donations....

ok so a lot of folks here are into music, and all kinds.. i am always up for hearing new and different artists.
let's face it mainstream radio is not a viable way to find out about new musicians, much less hear anyone with talent.. so i am looking to see what you all are listening to.
anyone under the radar?
Joannadandy, when you find a website with Jennifer Rush's version of the power song, make sure you find one with a recorded LIVE performance....her LIVE performances are MUCH better than just her usual recordings....

I don't know whether it's "kosher" to do this here ( I'm sure someone will tell me, if it isn't ), but this is an intro to a new xdub support group, which in NO way compares to nor detracts from JWD, only provides a cozy setting in which to vent/chat....it's self-explanatory....also the URL to the site, in case anyone would be interested in joining::::: Frannie B

This group is not gender specific and the only things that ARE TABOO are 1. passes made at the lasses/guys (unless it's all in fun) 2. religion-oriented oratory and 3. explicitly violent sexual references...there's a time and a place for everything, and serious discussions re: those three subjects should be addressed either in private, somewhere else or not at all. Rock 'n ROLL!!!
