  for those of you who aren't aware, aol accidentally released search data from 500,000 of their users.

  Lol ofcourse there is JWs on AOL. But I haven't seen much of the Disfellowshipped chatroom after a while. Maybe they moved to another service or something. One time we had this really crazy person who wasn't a JW, but believed in everything the JWs did. He went crazy bashing the XJws, then wouldn't go to the United Nations site to read about the NGO scandal because he thought the PDF file was a virus.

  JW litter-ature and Catholic hospitals

  by bebu in

  i noticed that recently that people mentioned finding wts literature in their local hospitals.

  i don't know about the standard public hospital, catholic hospitals will be more interested in understanding that the literature is anti-catholic.. i have brought wt litter-ature to the attention of ladies manning the info desk at our local catholic hospital, and explained to them that the jws are extremely anti-catholic.

  and their being a private catholic hospital, they had no reason to permit that.

  I do notice them around hospitals but I haven't bothered to remove or dispose of them. Besides it must be cool laying down beside "Blender" and "Stuff" Magazine with Jessica Simpson half naked on the cover. I wonder which one people will pick up and read.

  hi.. i have decided to join this site and hopefully connect with some people who will know what my story has been.

  i guess it is best to read my profile, but the upshot of this new found technology is that i am no longer alone in my isolation.

  i can hopefully reach out and connect with people who really understand what it is like in my head!

  I grew up during it, and almost went through the whole motions of marrying some sister who I'd never want to be with. But I still get pressured alot with finding some woman to marry, and you get really annoyed everytime they say it. Right now i'm out of the truth and trying to get friends who appreciate me instead of the fake smiles and nods I had to give.

  Yes, and due to recent circumstances, i'm able to fade due to depression without any backlash. I'll be in your other topic.

  Did the Witnesses you know, see "Fortune Cookies" as evil?

  by free2beme in

  2. friends

  i was in a few congregations growing up and like many things in the organization, rules were often regional.

  one of those issues i remember and it was something i always got a kick out of, was people's reaction to fortune cookies at chinese food restaurants.

  i had not run in to it as a child, and then i moved away as a young adult and was studying with witnesses to get baptized and they would try to make me feel more welcome, by inviting me to meals with other witnesses in the congregation.

  Wow i was thinking about this 5 years ago. AN Elder ate the fortune cookie, and read it, and I was shocked, because of how i thought it would be spiritism. It said something like Do your own thing, and he just read it and disagreed with it, and that was the end of it. Then we joked about another fortune cookie that said "You are smart and do things smartly"
