What is incredible and ridiculous, even cruel is asking sisters to go out in skirts during frigid weather. It used to get down to 28 below in Chicago, windchill factor 40 below, fahrenheit and sisters would go in service in skirts, tights and boots. Crazy!

shock horror! WITNESSING ATTIRE NOW CONDONES OPEN-NECK SHIRTS FOR MALES!
by steve2 ingo to jw.org right now friends and you will see a young male jw witnessing in a rural setting with publication in hand and - take careful note - wearing a crisply-white open-neck shirt.
bring out the carnival, light the lights: the organ ization is kicking itself into an ongoing casualization of its rank and file.. in the 1960s through 1980s i know brothers who dared to attire themselves sans ties who were reprimanded or worse.

Maybe he is informal witnessing. I have to say, when JWs come into my work, on a Sunday and even their boys are dressed in ties, they look so out of touch with the times it's so sad.

Honest survey question on effectiveness of 'apostacy'
by Simon init seems like lots of people have big dreams of 'destroying the watchtower'.
it's usually linked to a story of how they were wronged and want some revenge.
do these 'in your face' attempts to convince people that the truth isn't the truth really have an effect?.

I agree with your first statement OP, Simon. I believe a huge percent of JWs have a growing list of things that they find questionable. If you can, like you say, plant seeds and add to that list, it's a good thing.
Even when I was convinced it was the truth, I felt I would not be able to resist looking at apostate literature if I had chanced across it. I secretly wished that I could take some literature from the people at assemblies or that someone would send some. I was curious. Just simply curious.

The Kingdom Hall I went to in Baton Rouge, LA, La Belaire congregation, it was a former church.
These days I wonder if they brick over the windows so the church looks like a mini fortress.

How do you guys feel during the holidays?
by Joliette inthis is a very lonely time of year for me i admit it.
i'm suppose to be going over my aunties house wednesday after work.
but going to christmas/holiday parties and get togethers, i still kinda feel out of place.. i really wish i grew up celebrating the holidays more.

factfinder, try listening to Jose Feliciano Feliz Navidad. I don't know how anyone can hear it and not have at least one corner of his/her mouth turn up.
With holidays, it's all a matter of perspective. Some cultures look for any reason to celebrate and to be festive. It helps life to be worth living to have something to look forward to, regularly. Think about how gray and dismal the long winter months can be. Having monthly celebrations to look forward to gets a lot of us through them. If you don't celebrate Christmas, then celebrate something else that day. In the USA, most of us get the day off. Throw a dinner party for goodness sake.

Christmas is WRONG!
by thesaint inyou all should be ashamed of your egotistical selves.
how can you leave god's organization to celebrate the work of satan the devil?
it just goes to show you how jehovah's christian witnesses are correct about how persons will leave the truth for their own selfish desires.. first off, christmas is a pagan holiday and it proves no spirit with the almighty jehovah and his son, the christ.
