Just the opposite happened at my old hall....the head cheif elder gave a Sunday talk about how people disrespect god...and he said, AND I QUOTE!!!...."In these last days, damn has turned into Goddamn". What was weird to me was that no-one in the hall seemed bothered by this!

Banned expressions= Pioneers abused me for saying "that sucks or peeved"!
by Witness 007 inyes as a young man on 20 out witnessing with the special pioneers one brother said his bible study wasn't home...."oh that sucks" said i......well, you would have thought i said "that sucks balls" three pioneers completely freak out and as a "trinity" start telling me off...i didn't think it was a swear word....anyone else?.
once the c.o used the term "peeved off" during his talk...well, everyone did research on the word to see if it was the same as "pissed off.
".

TRUE STORY!!!
My son came home from school (first grade) and had the nerve to tell his Mother that he was going to hit her in the nuts! She was, of course, extremely upset and called me at work, letting me know I had the responsibility to take care of this mess. When I got home, I explained the whole "women don't have nuts" first, asked him where he heard the phrase etc.....after a lengthy discussion my boy looks at me, and with all seriousness asks:
Should I have said balls?

Are You a "Mess" Since Leaving The Organization or Are You OK?
by minimus inmost people have left the organization because of emotional issues.
the feeling that there is no real love or fellow feeling seems to get at people.
it gnaws at them.

Mess isn't exactly the word for it.....
Tired of these damned nightmares about Armageddon coming and watching my 3 young children die. Tired of feeling guilty every time my Mother (who is dying of breast/liver/spinal/brain cancer) calls me and reminds me of how important it is to be a Jehovah's Witness because the future of my children at Armageddon depend on me....
Just plain old tired....

i already knew about the holidays, blood tranfusions, the pledge, etc.

What are some of the wackiest comments you've heard at a meeting?
by doodle-v innearly every cong has few goofballs who you can always count on to give some really off the wall comments during a meeting.

I've got a few goofy ones:
A question was asked "If someone at the door wishes you a Merry Christmas, what would a proper response be?", and an older Sister in the hall raised her hand, grabbed a hold of the mic, and said "I always wish them a Happy New Year".....
A question was asked during the Watchtower Study about defaming or bringing reproach on Gods' Name, and the conductor wanted a few examples. A young boy in the hall, around 5 or 6 years old, raised his hand and gave the answer "Daddy says God Dammit". Yall can just imagine the embarassment the boys father went thru that day!

Desert Island Discs
by nicolaou indesert island discs is a uk radio show which has been running since 1942. the idea was to interview personalities who would become "castaways".
they would be sent to a desert island with a choice of 10 pieces of music (and the means to play them), 1 piece of literature (excluding the bible or the works of shakespeare) and the choice of taking 1 luxury item.. so let's play!.
my 10 musical choices:.
