out of a dozen or so dub families that live near me i can only think of one with a dog.

at mt ex-congo, i only knew of two families with pets, dogs/cats.

the non-dub pet owning percentage around me is near 100%.

What is the best question to ask a j.w. during a Bible study?
by hubert in
1. jw
2. friends
last year, i dropped by my daughter and son -in-laws' house just when they were having a bible study, and i was invited to "sit in" on it, and be an observer.

i didn't ask any questions, because i was not prepared for this event, so i "behaved' and just listened.

if i would find myself in this predicament again in the future, i wonder what question i would bring up that they would have difficulty answering, to show how the watchtower lies to new converts and worldly people when teaching them?

Hubert...You are on the ball...Q #2 is enough.
Others will hopefully come up with heaps of other ideas But the board is very slow and boring tonight which suggests, being the week-end, that all the ex-JWs are out enjoying hedonistic pleasures.
If you don't get a sensible response tonight don't hesitate in bumping this thread tomorrow.
Hub ( may I call you Hub? I guess not - it sounds silly - but Australians naturally shorten a person's name).
Hubert....The JWs will have a reply to every technical question as regards past mistakes in their prophecies..the "light growing brighter etc.." so don't even try.
The shunning is such an enormous blackmail....Just read back through this site to see how much pain, suffering and suicides it has caused.
I believe that if the Watch Tower Society dropped it's policy of shunning ex-members they would immediately lose over half of their current membership. It's this blackmail that's keeping them in.
Yeah....stick with Q #2............And don't cop the "gotta keep the org. clean" crap. That just means that once in you are forbidden to think for yourself ever again.
Scary...............

Hey Beep...
Happy Birthday darling....
Do you want to chat about it? Are you going to have a party?
I love celebrating ex-JWs birthdays...They have missed out on so much for so long for such a stupid reason. Or really, for no reason.
Anyway a big Happy Birthday hug from Wombat in Australia

Beep....Don't get upset...Having gone through this whole thread I reckon it just gets back to circumstances...Like where you live. How much space you have...
But some folk get despondant about the future and don't want to get too attached to something that they will love...And you don't have to be a JW to be that way.
JWs are like the rest of us. Some have pets and some don't.
But it is good fun chatting here.

Laser....I am really sorry for my rudeness towards you. I am sure that if we met we would enjoy each other's company. I just get a bit defensive toward fellow posters here if someone is abrupt with them. This really is a great bunch - each with their own personalities. Hang around..As someone said yesterday, this site gets quite addictive.
Frog...I agree. My daughter (a tree-hugger) is afraid to have babies because she is concerned with the future of the planet...global warming etc. I think that you have pointed this thread in the right direction.
Unfortunately the WTS makes it's followers live for the future rather than live in the moment. That's a mistake we can all make, WT adherents or not.
