and it is ... why do most at the hall prefer to sit at the back and leave front rows empty?.
I agree with others who have said that most don't actually want to be there.
Those that attend also want to be able to see everyone else...
Compare that to attending an event you ACTUALLY look forward to, such as a concert or stage show of some sort. Most people would LOVE front row seats!
someone decided to make their avatar almost identical to my old one so i changed mine to avoid any confusion.. <- so lookout for this anytime you want to read some "amazing words of wisdom" from now on :d.
He's an outlaw....(not to be confused with Outlaw)
i wanted to write my experience on how my husband helped me see the ttatt (the truth about the truth).
first, let me mention that he wrote his own experience a couple months ago under the name sanchy.
for his story please click here….. http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5148261828526080/walking-thin-line-resigning-elder
Just bumping this thread for any who missed it.
This account of Corruptgirl and Sanchy is simply outstanding and very heartwarming!
There is hope for our loved ones!! This forum community has seen quite a few wake up along with family members...so never lose hope!
saw the news story on jw.org this morning about all the help they are sending to congo after flooding there.
yay for them!
oh wait!.
Good point tepidpoultry! Yes, the Samaritan was actually an APOSTATE , and yet HE helped the Jew..... (not the other way around)

Why would the witnesses even bother helping any "worldly" people in times of such natural disasters? After all, they are all destined to be destroyed at the big A anyway right?
Plus, isn't it better that people die in natural disasters? After all, then they are guaranteed a "resurrection" right?

I think I may have upset a few by posting that here? Sorry.....but we got to admit, its pretty much spot on...right?
interesting story i have a friend who is df but his wife still faithfully goes to meetings.
there's a single brother in the cong that is always flirting with his wife.
well at a recent meeting my df friend decided to show up to check this brother out.
on the jw.org website, the watchtower is sending out a strong warning with regard to emoji's & flirting.. my personal view is that the org is now trying to micro-manage just about every aspect of people's lives!.

ps: 'quotes are from julia, ellen and tara.
It's just another example of the society micro managing the personal lives of its members...
Even if there is some value in teaching kids to be wise with electronic communications, it is over the top for the society to be meddling in things like this...
Whats next? Will they start telling all witnesses what sort of dress and grooming is appropriate? Oh, hang on....😜
just seen reference to a recent letter read to congregations about this, anyone got more info please?.
Oh that video you posted darkspilver was disturbing....
Could they be any more condescending and patronising in their delivery? Wow!
children's activity:.
zombies.. zombies are an invention of satan, and we know that jehovah hates satan, right?
(let the child respond.
Great thread!
Yes, of course, God never created anything disturbing! He only created fluffy bunnies and cute kittens....
Isn't there a scripture that says "for his invisible qualities are clearly seen from the worlds creation onward......."
So what "quality" of God do those sort of parasitic creatures show?
