  Sex in 1914

  by metatron in

  2. friends

  as a loyal witness, my dear departed mother sincerely believed in the "worse and worse" mantra.

  somehow, despite the history.

  of u.s. warfare, slaughter of native americans, dominance of urban gangs and lynching of blacks - the world was somehow better.

  The worst films you watched

  by greendawn in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we often talk about the best films that we have seen but what about the opposite, what were some films that really disappointed you either at the cinema or at home watching them from a dvd (or vhs though that got outdated now)?

  one film i found very boring was the "horse whisperer".

  Attitudes of JCs

  by rhian in

  2. experiences

  i just finished reading crisis of conscience.

  i had read half of it but never finished; something i read on this forum prompted me to pick it up & finish it.. my question is this: i'm curious, for those who have had experience with judicial committees, what has been the prevailing attitude?

  franz wrote about the lack of brotherly love in both the committees at hq in ny and in the cong in alabama.. i've had two experiences; won't go into the details for the sake of brevity.

  by calico in

  2. friends

  this is in reference to the thread about dubs not having pets.

  although, not a rule from the borg there are ones who would say you should not have pets.

  can you think of other silly made-up rules that someone tried to impose on you?

  Quick survey for apostates - please everyone just yes or no answer

  by slimboyfat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do the other witnesses with whom you associate/once associated in general know that you are an apostate or have apostate inclinations?

  the reason for the phrase "in general" is that it may be the case that one or two close friends know how you feel, but others in general do not.

  in my own case, one other witness knows, but no one else, so i would answer the survey question with a "no".
