  Sending letters to all JWs I know.....

  by Lilycurly in

  2. experiences

  after thinking a lot about it, i just felt i had to at least try something to make the local jws open their eyes.

  i know it is most unlikely that any of them will even consider reading all of what i will send, but here's the plan:.

  i've got a list of all their addresses (that i kept from before).

  A jw snopes type web site?

  by Check_Your_Premises in

  any who have checked out snopes.com, know that it is a very effective baloney detection device.

  it is amazing how many phoney stories end up coming some so many credible sources.

  for the dubs, the urban legend serves an important function of protecting and bolstering their faith.

  when i was in a drugstore a couple of months ago, i saw the presiding overseer in the other aisle with his wife.

  i saw them and made a conscious decision to leave.

  what would you have done in a similar situation??

  i don;t know what made me think of this as its a memory i haven;t retrieved in 17 years at least but it made me chuckle and it was a favourite story of my parents!.

  when i was 6 and my little sister was 3 we were at a thursday night meeting, when she began to whispher to my mum " i want a smack".

  my mother thought she had misheard and looked away but no lil sis said it a bit louder tugging at her arm, "mummy i want a smack.

  when you were babtized and dedicated did you feel a void?

  by swiftbreeze in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  this has always troubled me:.

  i was studying to be babtized although i was raised around the "truth" i still had to have an official study.

  so i was taught that i had to go to jehovah in prayer stating my desire to be dedicated and babtized.

  Dropping attendance and disolving congregations

  well, i came across a couple of interesting pieces of news yesterday, that i thought you would all find encouraging.

  while i was standing in line at macdonald?s yesterday morning, i ran into a couple of jws from the other side of town.

  they were up in my area because (not surprisingly) they were laying tiles at a local bar and the work had to be done on sunday morning.

  Getting married....any advise?

  by Uni girl in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i'm getting married in a few weeks to the man that was disfellowshipped with me for 'committing adultery in our hearts".

  we have been together for 5 years and have a wonderful and warm relationship, no fear or guilt.

  the only blimp on the horizon is his family, some of whom are maniacs when it comes to the letter of the law.
