Obviously the Holy Spirit thought the faithful and discreet slave class has not made up its mind yet.

Moments at the District Assembly You'll Never Forget...
by integ ini'll never forget the assembly in madison, wi.
where some poor sap had to tell everyone that he had become addicted to porno on the net, but through much prayerful contemplation and after confessing to the elders he was able to come to "grips" with it.. good luck to that guy with ever getting a fine sister to marry him.. poor guy.
i really felt sorry for him.

If you guys think its humiliating to talk about being a addicted to porn is bad, what about this 30yo guy who stood up in front of about 500 people at an assembly and told everyone how he was addicted to masturbation !!! Yes folks masturbation! I didn’t know the guy and I was embarrassed just being in the same Hall as that nut. Of course by prayer God helped him to stop ( probably till he got home at least )

I like all the lights and decorations. "Its the season to be jolly ..ta lala la la ...." But Xmas day is boring for me, everything is closed, nothing to do or go :-( watch TV and just the same 'Jesus' movies on all the time

Do you pray for others? Why? (One reason I rejected the Bible)
by AlmostAtheist inin addition to the noah's ark nonsense, this idea of praying for others was one that led me away from the bible.
here's how it plays out, in my opinion:.
bob has a problem.. jerry prays about that problem on behalf of bob.. god either:.

I do pray for others, others that matter to me. e.g. my family, that I'm a good parent to my girls, that my girls grow up proper and for my wife. As for others, I don't think I really do pray for them, but you can't just stop praying just because you don't know how God will figure things out. Your line of thinking remind me of Frances Farmer's Letter "God dies"

Why you still go on Field Service? Why Elders posts on JWD?
by tooktheredpill inthis morning, a poster asked me why i still go on field service:.
just wondering if your conscience bothers you that you are continuing to "spread the jw gospel"?
do you have plans to stop fs soon?

I have not read all the posts on here but as for me, I still go Field service because I don’t want the WTS to win, why should I let allow them to break up my family and friends, according to the apostle Paul, we are fighting a spiritual fight, I thought I was fighting against Christian but I am fighting against the WTS. As far as field service is concerned, I feel OK about it because I still believe very much in God and that this is the last days, I preach to them this and maybe even read verse’s but I just leave it at that and don’t promote the WTS.

Do j.w.'s celebrate New Years?
by hubert inalthough it may have been, i have never seen this question here.. i've never heard anything about celebrating new years from any of them, but i'm curious if they do or not, and if they send new years cards too?.
if they don't celebrate it, what scriptures would they use to support this?.
hubert.

JW’s don’t celebrate nothing except wedding anniversaries, for now ! I am expecting that birthdays will one day be a ‘conscience matter’ Its all fromn the Devil.

all yoou need is a good list of websites www.jwfiles.com etc.... maybe others can suggest other websites, but it won't make the JW think, it will only make you look like an 'apostate' or an agent of Satan and the JW will stop talking to you.

Was There A Specific Event That U Remember-- Realizing It Wasn't The Truth?
by minimus infor me, it was a combination of things over a long period of time.

how about you?

I believe it was always the truth, even with all the self-righteous nuts, I would excuse them as ‘unusual’ . But cutting to the chase I was involved in a committee and I could not believe the accusations and lies, favouritism, bias etc.. in God’s organisation !! the kind of stuff that I thought only happened in ‘Satans’ world. So out of shock and despair I looked at the internet and within a few minutes I realised WHY and all the loose pieces came together.

In all seriousness there are some good things about being a JW.
- Learn about the bible
- Learn about other religions
- A very wide network of friends and acquaintances.
- The young children also people have a very wide network of friends and acquaintances.
- The children and people learn good moral.
- Learn about mind control methods which can be seen in other areas outside the religion
