  How many of you remember the "Pioneer Shuffle " and the special "time reporting" of pioneers?

  by Foolednomore in

  i started pioneering in my late teens an remember how slow pioneers would walk to the doors while out in circus.

  also, they would not really talk to anybody at all.

  they would start their time as soon as they got dressed an out the door, while us regular shucks started our time at the first door we knocked at.

  They call it the pioneer crawl around here

  
  

  aka the pioneer stroll. Although in all fairness whenever i used to see groups of dubs out door knocking they always strolled along at the pace of the slowest

  i dont remember ever meeting one that liked door knocking.

  Its easy to reach time targets as a pioneer.

  All the time spent " witnessing" counts. Knocking doors--standing on the door step if no one home. Travelling to the next call. Sitting in a coffee shop for however long ESPECIALLY if you are reading a watchtower publication--if people can see you doing that--you are witnessing.

  Attending meetings..travelling there. Someone could see you doing that--so you are witnessing.

  If you have a part time job..do your colleagues know youre a JW ?. They might ask you a question..so just being there you are giving a witness.

  Does your job require you to think about it ? So--are you paid to think about your work ?---then why not count your pioneer time if you are only thinking about going preaching.

  Get the idea ?

  Just think about the surge in pioneer hours reported.

  i listened to the crap at the circuit assembly when i was 16--and wasted several years of my teen age pioneering, which included snooker hall practice and daytime ten pin bowling all counted as time.

  that was nearly 60 years ago.

  Why do you call yourselves "apostates?"

  by Marbles in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  well let me clarify the question.

  i know you call yourselves apostates because the bible defines people who leave their previously held beliefs as apostates.

  my question means, if the bible is not true (and i don't think it is) then there is no such thing as an apostate.i have never been a jw, only a bible student with them.

  i dont call myself apostate--that was a label stuck on me by others 40 years ago. If it makes them happy--fine by me--i like making people happy.

  welcome to the site.

  Why the King of South (USA) is in the Northern Hemisphere?

  by pistolpete in

  there's been a lot of talk among jws, that this is it with russia (king of the north) pushing and shoving against the (king of the south usa).

  but look at the world map below on the link, and notice that usa is in the northern hemisphere.. meaning the king of the south must be none other than -----------argentina .

  that's so funny that jws still can't figure it out that they are being conned to the max.
