  No one's home?

  2. experiences

  i was just remembering back to when i was around 13 years old or so.

  my friend, who was 15, and i were both pretty sick and tired of field service.

  we tried to work together as much as possible and one summer we worked almost exclusively alone as door-to-door partners.

  The Old International assemblies

  by pratt1 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i remember back in the lat 60's earlier 70's the international conventions.

  i thought they were great and we always had dubs from around the world who would stay at our house for the assembly.. .

  one of my best memories is about a group of young sisters from the mid wet who had never really known any black people who stayed at my house and stayed in our guest bedroom during the 7 day assembly .. .

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  though i haven't been in the mood to discuss jws lately, i had to post this one.

  it's a keeper and shows how fanatical they can get:.

  on my way to work in our city's downtown area i regularly see a pioneer walking up and down the street, holding up his magazines.

  INCUBUS

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have been dealing with one for the past few years.

  not constantly, but about once every three months.

  for those that don't know, an incubus is a demonic presence that only bothers women when they sleep.

  were you more 'materialistic' when you were a witness???

  by chuckyy in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  it was my experience when a jw that many focussed their lives around...having good holidays...having nice cars (some with private plates)...having perfect houses etc etc.

  it all seemed very materialistic to me.

  totally the opposite to what was being preached from the platform.
