  What's the most thought-provoking novel you've ever read?

  by lucky in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'd have to say for me that it was ayn rand's the fountainhead.

  even though i don't agree with a lot of her philosophy, it definitely made me stumble around in a thought-induced haze for a few weeks after reading it.

  Don't laugh--mine was Celestine Prophecy

  I read that a long time ago when I first left the dubs. I remember it being a real mind opener.

  More recently The Davinci Code and Angels and Demons.

  Children of the 80's!

  alright, i admit, i was a child of the 80s (or what i can remember) but the real reason for this thread is i have noticed that there is quite a few of people on this site that are close to me in age or just a little bit younger or older.

  i will be 28 in june.

  i think that this period in my life is a deep questioning period, because at younger ages i didnt give a flip about anything jw or ex-jw for that matter.

  While talking about how Christians should be aware of their dress and grooming at all times, he gave the illustration of a sister spring cleaing her house. Imagine, he told us, she is wearing old torn jeans, covered in dust, dirt and sweat, her hair messed up. Imagine this sister's embarrassement when a carload of witnesses pulls up and the Circuit Overseer gets out of the car.

  Hell they would have found me cleaning in cutoff shorts and a bikini top. You know what I would have said. Hi guys theres tea in the fridge help yourselves Im kinda in the middle of spring cleaning. If they didnt like it they could kiss my rosy red half breed ass. (hmmm think my attitude could have had anything to do with me always getting gossiped about?)

  A decent and viable substitute for the WTS

  by greendawn in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  let's suppose that a large number of ex jws decided to get together and set up a new religious entity to provide any spiritual benefits, that were provided by the wts but as we all know in an exploitative and destructive way.

  in a devious way much bitterness was added to whatever benefit they gave.

  what would your suggestions be in the way of forming such an entity?

  This Month's KM: Family Calendar?

  by RichieRich in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as many of you might have noticed, the may 2005 km has a group of 4 or 5 articles about scheduling family activities.

  it includes a blank week long calendar and little slips that you can cut out and paste onto the calendar.

  i think this is another crazy, last ditch effort to try and grab the remaining witnesses into the protective brood of the gb.
