  LOL! That is hilarious and oh so true. Yrs ago we were chucking a party at our place and the jws knocked on the door. My housemate of the time answered and the jw went into how bad the world is and doesn't it make you feel sad? My mate said no, opened the door and showed the jw hundreds of smiley faces he had put up on the wall! Allegedly the jw dropped his head and left in silence...

  Sorry MM your post came in while I was writing. Good points but as said previous, he'll keep being vague until it gets to an enquiry.

  There is no chance of a response Steve. He's a legal man he'll wait to see if the article and the enquiry get traction. He knows that shunning is against the UN charter of human rights but they will cry religious freedom when cornered. Kinda like Hey you signed up (got baptised) you should have read and understood the contract first. And the ultimate cop out? It's a personal matter between family members... Those articles may cause a few sleepless nights though!

  Great quotes Jeffro. Actually could be handy in the future if or when the enquiry into cults gets going. Actually when I was a teenager, I had a bible study with V Toole who was the elder pioneer super star of the time. He was very intelligent, a smooth talker and could spin a positve on any situation. No wonder he was chosen by the society to attend Uni and do a law degree. He would find it difficult to spin those WT quotes though....

  What do you mean?! I ALWAYS go to the beach after service and wear long pants and button up shirts while I play a game in the sand with my family! Sometimes I wear button up long sleeve shirts too!

  the wts likes to imply how jws should dress in and outside of the hall.

  you always want to set an example.. so i couldn't help but share this beauty in the january 15th, 2013, study edition of the watchtower.

  i always go to the beach like this!

  Strange comment from the (I assume) Australian Max Divergent. I have lived near the ocean for fifty yrs and I have never seen clothing that is in the article being worn on the beach. Yes, there has been a sun aware campaign since the eighties but really to say Aussies wear long pants and long sleeve shirts. Look at Cocos comment on the first page on the Gold Coast, that's more like it.

  I got the impression that he was a local looking for a Western (jw)wife but realised that he was on an apostate site and saw no potential here to get out of the Ph\s!
