  There are plenty well-off inside the WBTS.

  In the congregation I attend most are doing pretty well for themselves if you'd measure it by the cars driven and the houses/land they own.

  occasionally, a group of us 'spiritually weaklings' have gotten together and gone out dancing to a large city close by. We love to dance. It's quite a good time.

  Friday nights are special in my house. As firm a JW as my hubby is, still on Friday evenings we manage to have a couple of drinks either alone or with other 'friends'. We play games, dance, talk, laugh. Or sometimes just go out to eat and rent a couple of movies to watch at home.

  Many times on Friday nights we go out to eat some place, then come back home to have a drink or two. All done in good taste and moderately.

  Love those Friday nights!!!

  I could see this happening.

  The WBTS is outstanding when it comes to gathering its interests, be it people or real estate.

  No doubt in my mind that JWs will do very well during these times of distress while others will struggle horribly through it.

  JWs, specially the ones in 'good standing' do extremelly well during tough times. They stick together like glue!

  The being pro-college is one of the things that has me in the 'spiritually weakling' list.

  I have a college education and this has helped me tremendously. I'm very voiceful about encouraging parents to save up for their children's future college education, and for them to encourage their children to at least attend 2 years at their community college.

  This above-mentioned activity sure has gotten me in the 'border-line apostate' list.

  You Aren't Good Enough to Spend Time With Us, But Your Money Is Just Fine

  by Scully in

  1. social
  2. family

  am i the only one here who has non-jw and jw siblings who exclude you from "family" social events, but see nothing wrong with asking you to contribute a significant amount of money toward gifts for jw parents who instigate your exclusion from family social events?.

  quite frankly, i'm pissed off about this most recent request and i'm planning on ignoring it.

  why should i give $200 of my hard earned wages to people who won't permit me in their home or speak to me?

  The next time you're asked for $$$, don't and give your reasons so that you don't get asked again.
