  WOW...these stories have brought back a lot of memories. Once while in field service, I was REALLY cold because it was 20*F outside, and my mother did not dress my properly (i was only 5). I started to shiver violently, and the sister we were with scolded me about shivering in public...."We don't want the people at the door to get the wrong idea, do we? We don't want them to think that we are forcing you to do this, right?"

  The one rule that pisses me off most is the one about not participating in school plays, because it would draw undue attention on ourselves, and take the focus off of Jehovah. If I could have been in the plays at school, I would be on Broadway by now!!!!!! And, what the hell do they consider 'dramas' to be? I guess they don't consider that drawing to much attention to oneself, because everyone sits so far away that you can't actually see what the people look like! [>:(]

  I remember soooooo many times I would be watching Freddy Krueger or The Outer Limits, and my mother would run into the living room, and turn off the TV, screaming the name Jehovah, so that the demons who were jumping out of the TV screen wouldn't attack her or me. Isn't that hilarious????

  Who/What Preached at Your Funeral?

  by Sam Beli in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  someone started an interesting thread about what music wed like played at our funeral.

  the logical next step is to ask of what the funeral itself would consist.

  since becoming an ex-jw i have been wondering what my wife (also now an ex-jw) would do if i preceded her in death.

  WOW....what an interesting subject! I had never actually thought about, and I really should, considering that I DA'd, and my mom is still a JW. I am 19 and she is 62. I myself don't the JW's preaching to my funeral attendees about me coming back, giving them false hope. But I know that my mother would not want her funeral anywhere other than a KH. What's a girl to do???? Any suggestions???

  Questions for JWs

  by larc in

  dear jw,.

  i have some questions.

  as i understand it, if armageddon came tomorrow, those that never heard the truth, in such places as india or china would either live through armageddon or die and be resurrected.

  Larc,

  Good questions and good points. But I think the idea that the WTS is going with is this: Those who have already died, without 'coming to an accurate knowledge of Jehovah' are the ones who have the opportunity of being resurrected, during the thousand years. There is an urgency about the preaching work because the WTS's interpretation of the scriptures that state that Jehovah's name will be made known to people of all the nations, and then the 'end' will come....is a literal interpretation. Personally...it's either a bunch of outright lies, or it's extremely misdirected good intent. I don't really believe a word of it. But I can answer your question, because as a former dub, I asked this question a few times. I hope I clarified at least a little.

  My Regards,
  Joanne

  THE MASTER OF DECEPTION

  by You Know in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is a piece i posted on h20 some time ago.

  it was so well-recieved at the time that i thought i would repost it here for your enjoyment.. ______________________________________________________________________.

  the uninitiated reader of course naturally assumes that satan would be the master of deception, but in actuality, while he is the malevolent arch-deceiver, jehovah is actually the master.

  YouKnow,

  I thought that your post was most interesting. It has given me a new window to look through as I debate with myself on this subject. But I am curious to know some things....
  Do you think that the WTS is part of God's Master plan of deception, they all or in part being decieved, or do you believe that the WTS is God's chosen organization?
  If they are unknowingly helping God carry out this deception, and they themselves are the decieved ones (along at least 6 billion other people), then who are the 'chosen ones'? How do you know you are a 'chosen one'? Just interested and curious. Don't worry....I'm not about to blast you or anything, because I think you may acutally have some valid points.

  My Regards,
  Joanne

  "The God That Failed"-Metallica
  "What If"-Creed
  "Baba" and "Sympathetic Character"-Alanis Morrisette
  "Sweet Transvestite"-Tim Curry for Rocky Horror Picture Show
  These are my picks...I really wonder though, what the expressions on faces would be if "Sweet Transvestite" came blaring over the speakers? Would they laugh, would their faces turn red? I know I would torn between laughing and singing.

  WOW!!! I remember those days now like it was yesterday, and I find myself laughing at some of the silly things I used to do to waste time. And how we always stopped to get something to drink, which usually ended up with me buying the whole Wawa or 7-E to eat in the car. An "adult" in the front would ask me to go on a Rv, but then they would see that I was eating, and I would applogize and say that I had a bad stomach ache because I didn't have time for breakfast. They felt sympatheic, and took someone else. Evey single time I knocked on a door, I hoped that they were not home. I usually lied on my time reports. Like I added an extra 5 or 6 hours, and 3 books, 4 brochures, 6 tracts, 3 sets of mags. "Well, I give these to my schoolmates" "Oh, well Joanne you are such a good example at school." What was I really doing? Skipping class to smoke cannibis at the park across the street! I had them fooled for awhile, but then that just got boring.

  Advice From an MS

  by BoozeRunner in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  reading some posts tonite made me think of some advice i was given by a ms one day.. at the kh one sunday, i had genuinely asked brother g. how he was feeling.

  i knew he had health problems and could see he was kind of uncomfortable.

  he replied that his blood pressure had been high, and he was feeling the effects of it.. he then went on to explain that he rarely goes into detail because most brothers and sisters dont want to hear a persons problems.
