23How Jehovah's Witnesses could become a huge mainstream religion without harming people. Any thoughts?
by JWchange inif jws did the following, i believe they would grow exponentially and become one of the largest 'religions' on earth : .
1. no more dfing or shunning......its up to your conscience who you like or don't like.
in the same way if i was catholic living in ireland, i wouldn't hang out with my neighbor if she was a drunk fornicator, just had an abortion, had a taliban boyfriend and also supported liverpool soccer club.

Bring some bottlecaps, clear off a corner of the top of the cart and start playing the shell game. -

Dress up like this guy and play made up songs while standing in front of the cart.
"Wrote a song 'bout it. Wanna hear it? Here it go.
"J-dubs sellin trash...uh huhhh"

I can think of totally legal hilarious things you could do all day long.
Introduce yourself to the cart folk and be sure to shake the hand of the sister.
Then say, "Oops! Oh no! You're not menstruating right now or having a discharge beyond your period, are you?" (wait for response)
"Because Leviticus 15:25-30 says when I touch women with discharges I will be unclean until evening. Do you have any hand sanitizer?"

If you see the carts that often, you could come up with a different (legal) funny thing to do each time.
"I'll have a footlong with relish and hot mustard, please." Continue pretending they are selling hotdogs no matter what they say. Put a tip on the table as you leave.

The Witnesses Are Really Trying Hard To Get Me Back In
by minimus inat my mom's bed side all i see is either jw family or friends making a concerted effort to have me return to their fold.
evidentlyy, my mom has encouraged this and i'm a trapped prisoner, as they do their best to have me come back.
it's bad enough that i have to endure my mom's dying, now i have to be bombarded with this bs..

I wonder if you might slip in a few mumbles here and there when mom's out of earshot and line of sight--something along the lines of demons, Ouija, garage sale Tupperware, that sort of thing.
I'm serious.
They will not be sure if you're kidding, but they'll avoid irking you. I've had a high success rate with this technique.
And it's fun.

Just recovering from a 'Mormon Mind Melt' ...
by LoveUniHateExams ini was in town centre about an hour ago to buy a shirt and tie for an upcoming job interview when i was stopped by a youngish, clean cut american young man (20-ish) in a cheap suit.
my heart sank as i thought it was local jws.
to my slight relief, it was mormons!

They have hidden scandals in their history, just like wts. For example, the women used to be allowed to have >1 husband. This is not widely known among Mormons. It is on ancestry dot com. You can show them those things and it will be a shock to them.

Mass disassociation pact...

While it may be cathartic and funny to sign DA letters with other people's names, it could be dangerous. People have committed suicide because they were shunned. It destroys some people's lives.
You will also fulfill their persecution fantasies, pushing them back to Mommie Borg for safety.
No good can come of that except the jokester getting a few moments of fun. It's not right.

We could all get anonymous Twitter accounts and make profile pics with Guy Fawkes masks.
If we could all post using the same Tweet and the same hashtags within the same single hour worldwide, would that cause it to trend?
If we all said a single thing, in unison, it seems like it would be powerful. It would show how many of us there are--so many more than the current membership!
The Guy Hawkes mask is already associated with cults and protesting while protecting one's identity, so it seems fitting.
This could happen simultaneously with people DAing themselves (those that choose to--there are many of us who won't).
Examples:
I support the thousands of Jehovah's Witnesses quitting tonight. #notmentallydiseased
I stand with the thousands of Jehovah's Witnesses quitting tonight. #don'tdrinkthekoolaid

Not the point of the thread, but I wonder what's going on with that unscripturalTM sistaTM who is wearing a pants and the scarf (not tie)?
I was almost compelled to return to the org until I was stumbled by that extra cloth between her legs.
