Were you ever so bored witnessing that you did something fun to spice it up
by Qcmbr inwhen i was a missionary we had had a full day of door knocking and we were bored out of our skulls.we decided that since we'd been told by quite a few born agains that we were representatives of satan that.... we'd pull a couple of thorns off a rose bush and spend the next hour tracting with them stuck to our heads like little mini horns.

I was out for a drink with an old friend on Thursday night who like me was dragged up in the Borg...we discussed the very same subject and whilst we agreed that we didnt like anything about being a JW it did have a very big benefit on our adult life...and the general consensus was that we no matter how hard life gets would recognise a high control group and see its dangers and if we have children we will make sure they grow up with the self esteem we have had to work so hard to build whilst out of JWdom and make sure they are brought up with the social skills to be able to mix with others at all levels.
Such things you discuss after way to many single malts!!!?

Why Let The Elders Tell You What To Do?
by minimus inif any are still going to meetings or allowing the organization to control you, i'd like to know why are you allowing the elders to dictate to you what is right and wrong.
the elders are no better than you!

Why? Because they are gods spirit annointed Elders who are more experienced spiritually than we are...therefore we should not only obey them but we must without question follow their every word of guidance.

Does the Governing Body Have Any Real Friends They Can Trust Now?
by frankiespeakin ini would think with all that the governing body is faced with that they must feel some form of isolation even at bethel.
they must worry all the time that soon thier little world will come crashing down especially with the brutal exposer the internet is providing.
i'm also sure that they wonder who will be the next to turn states evidence against them in some legal case they face now or in the furure.. with all the very clear information on the internet exposeing the governing body thate soon some higher up will get deprogramed that have been privy to some very damaging information perhaps from the accounting or the legal department that could send thier asses to jail.

I just got access to a HUGE WT library...what do I want to get?
by wanderlustguy inmy brother and his wife (still very much in) just inherited a library of wt publications dating back to the 20's.
the best part is, it's complete with both the original watchtowers and bound volumes, in many cases there are 2 of each of the bound volumes, which i can have one of.
i plan on doing a lot of research on here to figure out what all i need...still a "newbie" you know.
