I love Halloween, it's one of my favorite holidays. I haven't been to a Halloween party yet but last year I dressed up as a witch and handed out candy to the neighborhood kids.

What in the world are you people doing for work? Are you working 2 jobs or something?
I have never had a job that required me to work over 40 hours. I have agreed on occasion to work extra hours if there is an emergency, a deadline or I need extra cash but I would never take a job that required me to work 50+ hours a week.
Life's too short to work that hard.

We haven't Df'd or Da'd and we've experienced this as well.
According to the JW rumor mill I :
- Started my own religion
- Baptized people in my bathtub
- put apostate ideas into the heads of local JW children
- stumbled the JWs because I put up Christmas lights
- made the JW children want to celebrate Christmas
- distributed apostate literature to every single person in the tri-state area
- am demon-possessed
- am responsible for the growth of a local church
- am a pagan who puts spells on JW
- am a devout Baptist
- left the JWs because I don't want my husband to have any friends or family
- don't have any friends
- have banded all my worldly friends together to give the JWs trouble in field service
- am responsible for every person who decided they no longer want to attend meetings
I get a good laugh every time I hear a new rumor. I wish I had an ounce of the power and influence that they seem to think I have.

Will apostates burn in Gehenna???
by kid-A ini seem to recall the wts teaching this many years ago.
the idea was that "apostacy" was the ultimate, unforgiveable sin, because it was.
tantamount to "sinning against the holy spirit".....does anyone recall hearing this idea, that "apostates", along with our buddy satan, will suffer.

JWs don't believe in the Holy Spirit so how can an ex-JW sin against it? In my opinion, JWs are the real apostates.
I remember hearing that. It makes me laugh now because the idea of non-Christians threatening other non-Christians with a Christian punishment is ridiculous....Does anyone recall hearing this idea, that "apostates", along with our buddy Satan, will suffer
the "permanent cutting off" in the firey lake of gehenna!!!

No Trespassing Signs at KHs?
by Saoirse ini drove by a local kingdom hall today and noticed that they had put up 3 large "private property/no trespassing" signs and 2 "this area under security surveillance" signs.
i haven't heard any reports of vandalism or break-ins so i'm curious as to why they would put up signs like that.
why bother going door to door if the general public isn't allowed to enter the kh?

Why bother going door to door if the general public isn't allowed to enter the KH? It seems like a very strange and cult-like thing to do.
Is this happening at other KHs?

How sad.
I always admired him because he seemed like such a wonderful husband and father. I can't imagine what his family must be going through right now.

My JW father-in-law has about 500 rolls of toilet paper in his garage. I figured he was stockpiling it for the entire congregation.

Best Disfellowshipping Comeback?
by slimboyfat inthat paragon of christian virtue, j f rutherford, had the following to say on the merit of wholehearted forgiveness:there is a maxim among men: 'i can forgive, but not forget.
' this does not proceed from the lord, but proceeds from the devil... when one repents and asks forgiveness, the forgiveness should be complete and absolute, even as the lord forgave us.
creation p. 220. .

I knew a brother who was disfellowshipped as a youth and then went on to become a very prominent missionary and elder. He was one of the nicest people I have ever known.
