  A Thought About Assemblies

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  since many of you already have read the annual commands from the society about conduct at assemblies.

  ( "don't cook food in your room, blah, blah, blah") , you might consider the meaning of their counsel about bringing.

  lunch.. i think they're scared.. they fear that, if enough witnesses leave the assembly to go to burger king, they might come under pressure to allow.

  Isn't it nice to know we are free from that mind control? I can eat lunch wherever I want and noone (well...except maybe my checkbook) can tell me otherwise. And if I want to go back to my hotel room for any purpose (be it food, drink, sleep, or sex) I can go - I paid for frickin' room so who are they to tell me otherwise?

  Oh yea - and best of all - with my freedom of choice I choose not to waste my vacation on a stupid numb session assembly The kids and I are going to Silverwood instead (yeee haaa!!)

  Covering up bathroom mirrors at the assemblies!!!

  by nojudgement in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this was one of the craziest things i remember about the summer conventions.

  i would go into the sister's bathrooms and the mirrors would all be taped up with brown paper so that we couldn't look at our reflections.

  were were amish or something?

  I'm with you minimus - I could never accept that innocent children would be destroyed by a God that is supposed to be so loving.

  2. friends

  this is a question my wife asked me again today.

  i get this question asked about every 3 to 4 months.

  she is concerned about what other people may think i guess.

  A lot - I plan to serve free alcohol!

  Really though, if I have my way about it........then the people at my funeral will hopefully be:

  All of my kids (which means none of them have passed on before me)

  All of my grandkids (none of which I have yet, but I'm planning to live a long time)

  All of my great grandkids (again......I plan to live a long long time)

  My brothers (which would mean they are finally free of the JW mindset and can come to my church services)

  All of the people I have helped (I could only hope that my life was worth this much - that 10 times more more people are touched by me in a positive way than those I have hurt somehow)

  Hi Marie:

  Welcome! Don't fret - you have time to research and figure out what you want to do. As far as your new baby - teach nim what you truly believe in your heart is the best for his life. It is our responsibility to lift our children up to a higher place than where we are - in that end each generation can grow better and further.
