  Slim--are you using a laptop or a tablet ?

  on a laptop--right click on a picture--click on copy image---then paste it where you want it.

  an atheist doesnt have to prove there is no such thing as god. how can someone prove something doesnt exist ?

  the onus of proof is on the theist. good luck with that.

  I just love the fully awake that are still inside. Me too!

  
  

  ha ha--i can just picture people like that--sat there in the audience--glazed expression in their eyes--idiot grin--nodding at everything said.

  but--what answer do they give on a medical form where it asks---religion ?

  Swearing on the bible

  by Lost and adrift in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  on the subject of truth.

  ..... i was always under the impression that one of the reasons jws couldn't do jury duty or go to court etc was that we were not allowed to swear on the bible.

  ..as in i swear to tell the truth the whole truth etc etc .

  its easy to swear on the bible.

  just drop it on the floor---stand on it--and swear your head off.

  but--dont try it on the Koran--or some slammer really will have your head off.

  You are in a great situation to fade - no wife or kids.

  
  

  would it be feasible to move to a different congregation ?---then attend rarely--or even less. no more MSing about! that way you will be able to hang on to your conditional friends for a while--till you make real ones.

  hello grey--welcome to the site.

  you mention youre a MS---can i ask if that means you have a specific role--like--passing the microphone or ordering literature ? the reason i ask is i'm soo far out of the loop i just dont know what goes on in the kingdumb hall any more.

  GB Members: What's the Story?

  by Cold Steel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  over the past few decades i've met many individual jws, but i've always been curious about the gb members themselves and about service at bethel.

  first, do gb members fraternize with regular rank and file members or do they only sell out each other?

  when i was a methodist, it didn't take me long to figure out that our minister and his wife were frequently invited to dinner, but i never heard of him actually inviting members to his house for dinner.

  back in the 60's--Peter Ellis was a circuit servant--and sometimes stayed at my wifes parents house in the Birmingham UK area.

  in recent years--since i joined this site--i found out from another member on here---that Wilf Gooch used to holiday at friends house here where i now live--on the Isle of Wight UK.

  Most Poorly Written JW Book

  by JW_Rogue in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so i was thinking the other day that the wt corp has produced thousands of books over the years.

  although the writers have changed the style is almost always the same.

  however, some books are just worse than others.

  back in my late teens / early 20's i rarely read any of the literature or magazines. i had no interest in it at all--and found the fonts and page layout to be difficult to even focus on.

  i made the break at 23.
