  Why do active witnesses frequent the site?

  by jimakazi in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm somewhat currious why active witnesses appear to frequent the site, and if the information on this site causes any to "fade away" or "dis-associate"?.

  personally if i have known 18 years ago what i know now i would have been a lot more active in trying to convince all i cared about to leave, instead of fading away [gone with a bang so to speak].

  it's funny how when you are in it you can't see it for what it is.

  Attention! A friend in need has evolved!

  by gringojj in

  2. friends

  i dont know if anyone else noticed this but on june 14th a friend in need was silenced from kwins post "it took only 13 hrs...." for being a pain.

  i just noticed a new member that goes by the name of dennis joined on june 15th and is spitting the same pro-jw stuff that afin was.

  so it appears our friend has evolved.

  i am hoping a little balance is allowed here, or at least the coin's flip side.

  this is my story so far, but i am fairly sure it is going to end up a bit differently than most i have read on your site.

  the brothers couldn't help my husband, he didn't want help.

  has there been any "new light" recently about how to treat disfellowshipped family members?

  my cousin got dfd a few months ago.

  i noticed that she had been spending quite a lot of time at my aunt's (her mother, an active jw) home.

  the first time i can vividly recall feeling jealous was when i was 7.. my dad came home from visiting a client with gifts for me and my sisters.

  my younger sisters got a beaufiful handmade doll dressed in pink lace called betty and a handmade cotton cot.

  i got the 1982 yearbook of jws.

  A question for my UK cousins: What are the different British accents?

  by Check_Your_Premises in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  since i have so many brits and uk types in one place, i was wondering if you all could classify or tell me the names of the different british accents.

  i think most in the states could be grouped by region and then each region divided into regular folks and folks with cash.

  for instance in thestates, you basically have north east which is can be characterized by your classic new york or boston accents.
