Thank you all for your responces! Sorry for the belated responces as I can only visit in short bursts. The memorial was the same 4 minutes of talk about Jesus and 41 minute infomercial. Sad really.

My Memorial Experience
by oneairhead infirst of all i noticed that this just seemed like another meeting.
when we drove in we had people parking us in strange ways, not to mention that the amount of cars there was just as many as a highly attended sunday meeting and we do fine then when we have no one to park us.
they had more seats set out and there were no new ones just people who had not come in awhile.

Others who know the truth about the truth!

One of them I just used a few terms like "field circus" and the like and we just started talking. The other one started in on me and my wife when we sat with her at a restaurant. I liked it that she did since my wife was there so I supported her statements a little but my wife was becoming visibly uncomfortable so I put an end to it, hoping that a little would go a long way.

Thanks for all of the reponces and welcome to the new ones on the forum. I have made time to spend with my new friend and closet apostate like me. I have found myslef to be less angry about the WTBS and my family now that I have a friend to share those thoughts with. He is in the same boat as I am with a believing wife and extended family. I have not talked with the other faded closet apostate who I have known for years, but will make contact soon.

First of all I noticed that this just seemed like another meeting. When we drove in we had people parking us in strange ways, not to mention that the amount of cars there was just as many as a highly attended Sunday meeting and we do fine then when we have no one to park us.
They had more seats set out and there were no new ones just people who had not come in awhile. Persons were taking pictures and laughing in fact my wife brought her camera but she had not charged it so she couldn't.
Here's the talk in a nut shell: 4 minutes about Jesus, 26 minutes of what we should be doing, what was soon going to happen to the world, and how this was the only place to be when you have a free minute.
Afterward, same old thing standing around talking taking pictures, etc. Also one other thing was the teaching prayers that were given. Not a humble supplication to God through Christ but basicly a talk given in the form of a prayer.
Simply amazing.

Within the past week I have met two others in my area who are closet apostates, like me. One still attends and one does not. But it is noce to know that they are there and we can have conversations about it. It is nice to have the support. I have encouraged one to post and he said he would and the other one i have to go and see. Hopefully we will gain two more members on JWD.
I can't tell you how good it feels to have someone to talk to in person about this whole thing.

I just had a thought. This proof that perhaps there are more homosexuals in Crooklyn than formerly thought. These fashionistas are appalled at what the people coming in are whereing and want to give them makeovers, so this is their way of doing so. Their spiritual paradise must be perfect up there.

For years this has been an issue to someone at the top. It must drive this person nuts. He or she continues to make an issue of it. It has already been said but I wonder what the cost was to the bros. to create print and distribute this brochure. When it was read at our hall tuesday the brother made a point to say "...it is in bold and italics...." which referred to the way the WTBTS wrote the letter that accompanied the brochure.
I am telling you it is a fetish with someone in Crooklyn.
