  JDubs at the mall and other inventive ways to put in "time"

  by limbogirl in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  has anyone else seen the jdubs at the shopping mall ??

  they sit at a table with all of their wares displayed hoping to lure people away from pottery barn and macy's.

  i did a double take when i saw this and then had to stand back and observe for about 20 minutes -- what i observed is that no one stops at the table except what appear to be fellow jdubs.

  How does one get marked?

  by On the Fence in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  ok, i've been involved with jw's for 15 years or so, but i've not been deep enough into any "clicks" to know how someone gets "marked".

  will someone explain?

  i'm sure i must have been marked more than once for stupid reasons - only going to 2-3 of the 5 weekly meetings (hey, some of us do have to do laundry every now and then), not commenting enough (they wouldn't want to hear my comments now), not going out in service enough, etc.

  i am curious because i was never baptised.

  i know i was lied to before baptism but i was wondering if it got worse after being baptised.

  i would like to know if things changed in doctrine or knowledge after you were baptised.

  Does a brother have to explain if he cuts his hair bald?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we all know that having a beard or a goatee is wrong in the jw organization.

  how about if a brother just decides to be bald, by choice?.

  what do the elders say then?

  AUSSIES: PLEASE READ THIS - Is JW accountant Australia's top tax fraud?

  by ozziepost in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  appearing in the current issue of australia's brw ("business review weekly") magazine is the cover story of the australian taxation office's cracking down on tax fraud.

  two high fliers are singled out, a former assistant tax commisiioner and...... a cpa (public accountant) well known to jws in sydney.

  because the practice is staffed and run by jws, some of them quite prominent in dub circles!.
