The meetings were always so boring, and the worst bit was that if you completely blanked out and daydreamed through it all, as I almost always did, then guaranteed at the end you would get some idiot come up and ask what you enjoyed most about the meeting, and you'd be racking your brain trying to think what it was about.

22KH meeting - boring!
by jstalin ini'm not a jw but a friend of mine who is a jw invited me to the memorial service at the kh this year.
i was raised catholic but now i'm agnostic/atheist.
one thing that struck me was how horribly sterile and boring the memorial service was.

Were You Ever Drunk or High At A Meeting Or In Service?
by minimus in.
.
an elder in our hall used to drink his wine before evening meetings regularly, and on more than a few occasions was "buzzed" and laughing up on the platform while giving a talk.

Yes, I went to an all night party one Saturday night and then straight on to the meeting, I was at that tired stage, before the hangover sets in but you're not drunk.

Arranged marriages - What do you think??
by Tez inpersonally i don't condemn this outright, but feel the couple should have input if it is to succeed.

My mum tried rather unsuccessfully to marry me off at 16 to the congregation geek, she now doesn't approve of my partner, I don't agree with arranged marriages but that has a lot to do with being brought up in Britain in a white community, its probably different if you are brought up in a community were it is seen as normal.

Technically, it's not a miracle. But it IS a miracle for me.
by bebu inthe neurosurgeon called it glioblastoma.
the radiologist affirmed it was glioblastoma.
--glioblastoma is the brain cancer tumor that they diagnosed for my mother last friday from her mri results.

Never ever shop at Comet
by Ellie in.
i went to comet yesterday and bought a new tv, it cost 1300 so ofcourse we handled it with utmost care all the way home.. when we got it home we took it out of the packaging to discover a huge crack all the way down the screen.. so i phoned up the customer service helpline and was put through to the store we bought it from, and spoke to the most unhelpfullest people on the planet, they denied all responsibility but eventually agreed to send an engineer round to fix it tomorrow.. then today i got a phone call from their repair department saying that the engineer was booked in error and that i should contact phillips, the makers of the tv.. so i phoned phillips and they said i should contact the store for a refund or exchange.. so i just phoned the store back and spoke to one of the muppets from the office who again denied it was their fault and said she will speak to the repair department again and call me back.. does anyone know what i can do about this or what i'm entitled to?

Thanks everyone for your advice, I have been told now that an engineer is coming round today just as a formality, he will take a look at the TV and order us a new one as a replacement, that will have to do.
Its a pain in the neck though, when you spend a lot of money on an appliance you atleast expect it to work, so take my advice now and go to Curry's instead.

Another Warning From God
by Kenneson inthe message remains the same.
reform your lives or be chastised.
from the comments i have read about god's supposed non-existence in this forum, it seems that we will only learn the hard way.
