we live in a block of 6 flats, with communal security doors at the front and back.
apart from between 7am and 10am every day, when the trades entrance button will open the front security door, no one can get in here unless they have a fob to open the security doors with, or unless one of the residents lets them in.. the jws were just at the front security door, obviously getting their hour in after the morning meeting.
they don't ring our bell, they know better, so they were ringing the other bells.
In reality they are NOT 'Jehovah's witnesess' They are "Watchtower Witnesses"
That's right Tophat.
They may call themselves jehovahs witnesses, but if jehovah does exist, I doubt he has much pride in the way they represent his name. We wondered if they were hesitant to admit what they are, though they did do eventually, as they had a good idea of how they would be treated. I doubt that even they are stupid enough to think that we wouldn't have informed our neighbours about them.

Hi jgnat,
It's lovely to be here posting on the board, I miss you all when I'm not able to do so.
As for the chemo, it's early days yet, but I am trying to stay positive. I know I will feel rough on treatment days, so I am going to try and make the most of days when I feel reasonably well.

Hi purps,
Trev is spreading the good word isn't he?
Yes, both of us are. I somehow don't think the jws will ever have any success in this block, or the one next door. We try to keep all our neighbours well-informed about the watchtower. I wouldn't be surprised if some of them know more about the wts than some jws do!
And yes, the pot is helping, as well as being a fun way to get over nausea symptoms!
Badboy, I hope you keep your neighbours informed about the jws as well.
if so what island?
or are you originally from the c'bean but living and posting elsewhere?
would be great to make your acquaintance!.
Hi uuus,
I think a lot of us would like to be posting from the Caribbean, although it's a lovely afternoon here in the UK. I know my husband would love to be there at the moment, as he's a cricket fan (watching the match right now)

on this board that subscribe to such.
the questions stated are not for some.
I'm an atheist because I do not see any concrete evidence of the existence of a loving god, which is how the bible describes him.
I do however, accept that I may be wrong, and there could be a god after all, but I would take a lot of convincing of his existence nowadays.

Hi Oldivado, and thankyou
I only started chemotherapy this week, Monday, so I have a long road ahead of me, but I have plenty of support, both at home with my husband and friends, and with my many friends on this forum.

good morning: .
if one jehovah' witness to participate in martial arts or dances sexys with clothes kolants, it can be dissociated, however, your ancients had rented a your temple (kingdom'hall)) that they considered \ old \ in the porto feliz city, sp, brazil ,for the same things and had not been dissociated and nor reprehended.
it is not unjust this?
Hi Friendfriend, and welcome to the forum.
Most of us on here are ex jehovahs witnesses, and we are well aware that the watchtower society is run by hypocrites who like to tell their followers how to behave, but don't necessarily behave that way themselves.

Hi MsMcDuckett,
Nice to hear from you
I am feeling ok today. I have some friends here, and Trev is looking after me well. The chemo is rough, horrible in fact, but I am going to try and live as normal a life as I can around treatment days. I can't seem to get over the tiredness, and I have had a few moments when I've felt a little confused. I was warned that might happen, but it's still very disconcerting when it does.
I was a bit hesitant about smoking weed, as it is still illegal here, though, as Trev says, I doubt the police will knock on our door on the off chance one of us is puffing on a joint, but it has helped, as well as making me feel good in other ways as well. I was so high a couple of days ago I couldn't post lol!
I'm just going to try to enjoy this weekend, and my life in general, as much as I can

Hi Ian and Clare,
It's good to see you!
I have been told that you can buy marijuana in pill form, called marinol. I don't know if it's available here, it was a poster from the USA who told me about it, but smoking it is effective, apart from I was constantly giggling after the first time I tried it. I haven't used that since I was at University, and I'd forgotten what effect it could have. Trev hasn't used it in years either, but he knows people who do, and got it easily. If you can find some way to use it, it will probably help, one of the doctors told me it is one of the most effective ways to treat post-chemo nausea that he knows about.
As for the jws, I knew all the ones that were down here, and Trev knew most of them. We have Marion here today for dinner, and a friend of mine from work who is currently fading, and we all had a good laugh at our neighbour's response to the jws. You are right, humour is a good cure for so many ills, I certainly feel in a good mood now (and I haven't had any cannabis yet today)

recently, the history channel has had a couple of fairly decent/informational programs on cults and how they operate (one was a general overview and the other was on jonestown).
i am wondering if there are any other wothwhile videos on/about cults, especially bible based cults available anywhere that do not come from the standpoint of trying to promote an alternative or more mainstream form of christianity.
it would be really nice to see a documentary on how bible based cults work and how they 'cherry-pick' scripture to get members to surrender their free-will to do anything 'those taking the lead' tell them to do.
This is the link for the Doomsday Cults programme, I thought Trev had it somewhaere
Doomsday Cults (Discovery Channel) 48 MINS modem (low bandwidth) version DSl/Cable (high bandwidth) version I hope that is what you are looking for Linda
