I have never been to a JW funeral. I was raised a JW, but was never baptized, and faded about 20 years ago. My mother is a JW and my older brother is a JW. If either of them go before I do, I will definitely insist on speaking at the funeral, as a rebuttal to whatever borg stuff is spewed. Not looking forward to that day.

JWs and relationship immaturity?
by jstalin inmy jw friend seems to be unusually immature when it comes to relationships and women.
i don't think he's ever had a serious relationship with a woman (he's 23).
he uses the terms "womens" when he speaks about women, and he uses the word "boobies.

Years ago it was not uncommon for a young sister to hook a young brother by giving him his first BJ. Don't know about these days.

I think it was Mark Twain who said, "Every man [or woman] is a moon and has a dark side that he [she] shows to no one."In that sense, we are all Moonies, I guess.

They think they have the truth because they are incapable of thinking.

by atypical inhas anyone read this book: the end of faith.

I, too, have read The End of Faith, and I highly recommend it (though I agree it does bog down somewhat towards the end). I also agree with Mr. Harris that religious faith is to blame for most if not all of the problems in the world today. Unless we give up our faith and replace it with reason, we are doomed. In other words (mine not Mr. Harris'), we are doomed.

Being raised a JW in the 70's, it's a wonder I can even tie my shoes, much less make a living. But I left in the mid 80's and was able to get an Associate's degree in IT and have been making a decent living ever since. Currently working on a BA.
