you could ask them pretty well anything about their beliefs--chances are they wont know the answer and give you a leaflet directing you jay-w organs

What to do with old publications
by TonyMorronTheTurd inhi guys,.
it's been a while since i posted here, but i feel like posting again.. it's hard sometimes to find the energy to post here after i expend all my time working a full time job and pretending i care about the wt$ at the same time.. i've been trying to slowly wake my girlfriend up ever since i first posted here, and i must say it is a long waiting game that i am playing right now.
almost all my efforts are dismissed and i've been slowly losing hope.. anyways, what i meant to really post here today is about old publications.. honestly anything that has to do with the watchtower and jdubs, as of recently makes me feel like vomiting.

best to burn the lot. if you just throw it away--some poor sod might just pick up an item and read it--and get a mention on a big assembly programme.

When Was The First Time You Ever Got Drunk?
by 1234 ini was 20 years old and at bethel for just a couple of months.
i was really depressed, as i was finding out what bethel was really all about.
i drank a whole bottle of cold duck, after a long hot subway ride back to brooklyn.

there were no first times--just plenty of last times.
one i can recall..jw friends of mine--in Birmingham UK--were caretakers of an office block. each christmas they were paid to host a big office party for clients and guests. i was about 16--and helped out as a barman. this was in the late afternoon of xmas eve. i was supposed to do a talk at the KH ministry school that night.
i never made it. i was found passed out stone cold--pissed--on the floor of one of the lavatories--hugging the bowl and covered in my own cold puke.

Infidelity amongst JWs
by YellowLab indoes there seem to be a higher incidence of infidelity amongst the jws?.
my brother, who is an active jw and ministerial servant, has an elder friend who was recently disfellowshipped for having an affair with another sister in the hall.
it turns out this sister was divorced a few years earlier from a "worldly" man who had an affair on her.

Do Jw's Dress up in meeting clothes for Zoom meetings?
by jeremiah18:5-10 ini am just curious if anyone knows whether the "friends" still are required to wear "meeting clothes" for attending meetings through zoom?
such emphasis on dressing in a godly manner over the decades, would be interesting if some attend in pajamas or their work clothes, no makeup, etc....

Midweek Meeting looooooooong prayers.
by Davros inone thing that aggravates me is long concluding prayers, especially at the midweek meeting.
you work all day, rush home, grab a quick bite, dress up in meeting clothes.
then, go to the meeting.

maybe one of you ex bethelites can confirm/refute this--
someone at a bethel home breakfast was selected to say the prayer. on and on it went; when he finally said amen--he opened his eyes and everyone else had finished their breakfast.
i heard that one-50 years ago. i do want it to be true.....

Weekly Meeting Importance Being Reduced - Your Thoughts?
by JWTom ini am pimo, but now have 40+ years of being a jw as i was raised in a 3rd generation family of witnesses and continue to fake my way through things - fading as i can.. for the vast majority of my time as a jw, the meetings were the central focus for all jws to get teaching, association, information and so on.
nothing was more important than being at the meetings!
over the last 20 years starting with the elimination of the weekly book study in homes and continuing down to today - my opinion is that the value/purpose of the weekly meetings continues to be diluted or minimized.

if there are no more meetings--what will the society do with all those lovely kingdom halls ?
