Thanks...I just told her I did it...she was so glad! No one ever sticks up for her, they always dump on her...I think she was happy someone did.

Okay, so my best friend calls this morning. She has left the borg, but the rest of her family hasn't. She was invited over to her Moms house last night for dinner and her Grandparents were suppossed to be there. They were always a really close family. So she went over there to see all of them. Her grandparents had just finished having a family study with her Mom..(age44, still having a family study). She went to give her grandma a hug and she was stiff as a board. So my friend asked what was wrong. And she proceeded to rant and rave, scream and yell at my friend. She said what a disappointment she is, what a horrible person she is, that she worships buddha on and on. Unprovoked. Her Grandma said do you love Jehovah, and my friend said no..and they said well we don't love you then. They said we want nothing to do with you, you are dead to us, all the usual bunk. She was DESTROYED!! (Her Gpa is the PO, real loving huh). Anyway, I have just been fuming all day about this...it was an obvious setup...and her mother did not step in once to defend her, she allowed this to happen in her own home.Soooo....I made a phone call to them and left a message (its Thursday, meeting night dontcha know)..that said"
"Hi XXX and XXX I just wanted to say what a fine witness you gave to XXXX last night. She is so encouraged. I mean to go to her mothers house and abuse, I mean, thats what it was, abuse, he in her home because she doesn't share the same beliefs as your cult, I mean religion, Jehovah must be bursting with love and pride for you two. Instead of focusing on her good qualities..that she is caring, loving, a hard worker, you focus on that. That is true christian love, no wonder you are a PO. What a fine witness brother and sister. way to go"
So. was that stupid..I dodn't tell her I was going to do it, and I just kissed goodbye any residual relationship I had with her Mother..but someone should stick up for her...right????

Assembly talks-WHy did they talk so loud at the end!?
by themonster123 inwhenever i would go to conventions, i thought it was weird how at the end of the brothers' talks (especially the older ones like from the governing body or whatever), they would start getting louder and louder and louder.
ie; "in this time of the end, we need to keep on the watch for our adversary satan is roaring about like a lion!!!!
do you agree??".

For women: your view of strip clubs
by Paralipomenon ini have heard two vastly differing viewpoints on this subject over the years.
regarding your significant other, would you care if they went to a strip club or not?
some examples: .

mama1119
Nope! I would not tolerate my husband going to a strip club for one second. Nor would I go with him. Would not happen. We have two daughters, and under no circumstances would I ever want them to think we approve of that as a choice. I mean no offense to anyone on here, but I would not want that lifestyle for either of my girls.

I got reinstated and started regular pioneering. I had a special part on the assembly about avoiding the internet. It was very encouraging.
