  Are the Society planning a 'Pledge of Allegiance'? IT MAY BE TRUE!

  by nicolaou in

  i've just learned from a trusted contact at thewatchtower.org 'norris', that the society intend to put a resolution to the congregations shortly - though definately not at the 'special talk' meeting next month.. here's the scary bit.

  this resolution needs to be responded to by all baptized jehovah's witnesses.

  we have not been able to get hold of the wording but have been informed it is intended to provide the brotherhood with the opportunity to affirm their loyalty to jehovah and his organization.

  How would you explain jws to a non-jw?

  by Gadget in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in the past, when i've been talking about being a witness they haven't really understood just how much of an impact it has on your life unless they've been one too.

  whats the best way to explain it to someone who has never been a witness and had little contact with them?

  i'm more thinking of how much control there is over your life, and the reason why a lot of witnesses feel down and suffer from depression, ect.. gadget

  The Privilege of Handling the Microphones

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the most unbelievable privileges that a brother could have was being a microphone handler.

  elders would discuss brothers for hours and see whether or not we would allow them to mow the lawn or handle a mike.

  i always felt that these brothers were doing us a favor but if they didn't get a minimum of 10 hours in per month, they were dog crap and couldn't have any privileges.

  Headcoverings, Goals & Women's Roles

  by Black Man in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have always felt that requiring sisters to wear headcoverings was assinine.

  jehovah won't strike you down for not wearing a headcovering".

  word gets back to the co on his next visit that i don't let sisters wear headcoverings at the bookstudy when they read and he reams me out for it.

  Pleasantville

  by waiting in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  on h20, someone commented on this movie as an insight on how we, as jw's look at the world and the problems of trying to change that looking.. i had seen the movie last year - i thought it was going to be a comedy - it wasn't.

  but i didn't tie anything to it.

  naturally, i didn't apply it to myself.. but this guy is right - i'm going to watch it again.
