  well, in our cong. service is now "expected" on Saturday.

  a few months ago we had a local needs part about supporting the cbs field service on saturday.

  it was given by a nice older elder, but what he said was pretty scary.

  he used all the phrases and logic that are usually used for meeting attendance.

  I don't think anyone really looks forward to field service. That's the thing about JW's. They are sooo half hearted in what they do. That's one of the strongest indicators that the whole JW system is a bunch of crappola.

  if you don't believe in the 360 points mentioned in the "bible topics for discussion," {at the back of the nwt} you aren't a jw?

  [if there is just one point, just one little, etty bitty point... goodness me you can't be a jw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  ] yeah, i don't think it's on the watchtower program... just in the printed nwt only.

  Do Dubs in Israel use "the Divine name"?

  They had to stop due to the increasing number of stonings by jewish women wearing fake beards.

  Well all i know, is that back when i was in the org there were a few people that had that odd stare. It was always a small number and they were always a bit weird or funny and everyone knew it. I think they were just a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic. Probably nothing to do with the fact that they were JW's although the troof would probably have amplified any eccentricities in these kind of people.

  now i only drive automatic transmission cars....because there is so much traffic and too many stop signs.

  it becomes annoying.

  i used to love driving manual transmissions, but no more.. the internet is one other thing that i wouldn't be able to do without.. how about you?.

  e-foot in mouth, does anyone else have this problem??

  by Frog in

  2. friends

  hey guys don't know about you but i got through these periods where i seriously put my foot in it via email, forums, txt messages etc.

  in real life i'm quite diplomatic and have a knack for saying the right thing.

  the sort of thing i'm talking about is replying to all in an email, rather than just replying to sender, and disseminating a whole bunch of information to people you never intended it for.

  lol@froggy

  I'm sure they'll get over it

  IMO the best thing about posting or emailing over the internet is that you can think about what you write and even edit it before you send it off!

  If the WTS started off in Australia, do you think they would be different?

  by inquirer in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  or do you think they would be still be demanding and cult like?

  do you think they would be a little more laid back in australia?

  there would possibly be someone with a similar name, a lot of irish people came to australia as well.
