dh,
Your avatar reminds me of a hamburger.

i guess this questions is for people who grew up as jw's... .
when you were out door knocking as kids, did the people who's doors you knocked on ever tell your parents that they shouldn't bring you out door knocking in the freezing cold, or did they ever ask you why you were out door knocking when you're so young?.
i remember both questions coming up fairly often since in england it is always winter, never forget the way this one old guy bent down and asked me why i was there and i gave the answer 'i'm here because i want to be' which was a total bold faced lie, but it was what we taught to say.. anyone else experience this?

P.S. And wouldn't you know... you couldn't COUNT tract placements. I wonder why not.

I usually offered the latest tract. People would take it... most likely because they felt sorry for me. It's hard to reject kids. Heck, I always give them a buck when they come to my door selling candy.

this was posted on ww today.
do you think the apostate infiltration had anything to do with it?.
in the name of christian unity and peace, we regret to inform you that the management of ww has decided to close the ?park?
LOL, Kats. You can't please everyone... you have a PM coming soon.

we all agree that the internet will free thousands of good-hearted people from the clutches of the watchtower.. i think the more jw discussion boards there are, the more jw's will get on the internet initially to use the boards then hopefully they will branch out and maybe the god of google will view them favourably and help them in their eye-opening.. so i think its a bit sad that witness world has closed its doors.
i don't think its a good idea to infiltrate the jw sites if it means the administrators end up closing the site.. agree/disagree anyone???
at least be thankful you get the chance to post on a question which hasn't been asked by bloody minimus!!
Private Forum and Internet is an oxymoron. The internet is the least private venue around.
This is true... but it's the thought that counts.
since you've been experiencing your "liberation", how are you doing?
Pretty good, thanks minimouse!
;)
just got word: i'm back in the saddle at ms!
woo hoo!
*moonwalks around his living room*.
A big congrats to you! Make it bug free!
Btw, did you see the news item on Microsoft vs MikeRoweSoft?

in a recent thread, metatron wrote:(recent change: the inactive need to put in time or be disassociated).
when was this policy introduced!
seems rather harsh!.
"Of course it's not official, ironclad and black and white but a lot of JWs view an inactive one this way."
It sure seems that way. I had one sister whom I considered a good "liberal" friend remark to me (when I expressed that people just acted like I fell off the face of the earth): "You left us"
