I've never been to Cedar Point, Ohio. But did you know that half of the prophecies in the book of Revelation were fulfilled during conventions that the JWs held in that city.

Mine was taken back in 1976, the year after Armageddon. Since we are in the New World now I haven't really changed much since then as those here who have met me in person can testify.

My fiancee and her family are coming up to spend the Holiday with me. So my house will be full of Russians, which should be an interesting experience. I plan to take them to see Fort Ross, here in Sonoma County. It was the first Russian settlement in California. And it will be nice to have someone who can read all the Russian inscriptions and translate for me. We will also have a Russian style Barbeque and plenty of Vodka.

Ex-elders: did you ever confront anyone on FAKE HOURS
by Quotes ina few recent threads have been about faking hours in field service reports (for example, this one: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/72429/1.ashx).
a number of posters said they would never actually go in service, but still magically get in their hours each month.
my question to you ex-elders: did you ever confront someone on this?
-
Athanasius
No. In fact the subject of fake hours never came up at any of the elder's meetings that I attended. The CO never brought it up. In our congregation I think a lot of us padded our hours and there were probably some who handed in fake hours, but there was never any audits and nobody ever questioned a publisher's report card.

Last week I got a call from my ex-fiancee. I haven't seen the woman in 14 years and now she apologized for breaking up with me and wants us to get back together. I thanked her, but said that her leaving was the best thing that ever happened to me. And furthermore, I am seeing a beautiful Russian woman and we are planning to get married next year. Nevertheless, my ex still plans to move back to California. I wished her luck.

Idea: dodr-to-door counter ministry.
by Quotes in[overcoming objections] if the householder says "you are an opposer and apostate" you might reason with them by saying: .
[overcoming objections] if the householder says "we have our own religion" .

Sounds like a great idea, using their own tactics against them. Maybe it could be tried at the next apostofest.

DATING OLDER MEN/WOMEN
by sandy inwhat are your thoughts on this?
would you date someone significantly older than yourself?
have you done so in the past?
-
Athanasius
Earlier this year I was dating a woman who was a month older than me. But we broke up so now I am seeing a woman who is 3 years younger than me. Does that count?

What's your ethnic background?
by Joker10 in.
it seems that light skinned ex-ws speak out more against watchtower than people of a darker skin color.
what is your ethnic origin?

Athanasius
French, Scottish, English, Irish, and Native American. My girlfriend is from Russia, so if we have any kids they will be quite a mixture.

What Makes Some ExJWs So Angry & Others So Pleasant???
by minimus in.
from what i can see, it appears that some exwitnesses are either handling life outside the organization pretty well or not well at all.
i wonder if some persons simply, by nature are angry, unhappy persons while others are naturally good, "honest-hearted ones" that simply want to find some measure of happiness.
