  who go ONLY to the memorial???

  by oompa in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was planning on going to a meeting or two with my wife.......maybe one or two a month.....but if i do...... i still really do not want to ever go to another memorial......they have weirded me out for years and most of jw friends know that........but you know once you skip a memorial it is like you are marked for death already....i mean word gets around fast "omg...i just heard oompa did not go to the memorial!

  so how is this gonna fly if i go to a couple of meetings a month, but skip the memorial?

  and if was gonna try to appease my wife by going to some meetings.......should i just bite the bullet and go to the memorial........and then maybe only do the memorial?......i always thought that was sooo funny that we had a bunch of once a year jw's.........they loved coming and rejecting jesus every year..........oompa.

  Have you considered having your mother bring them out to the car when you arrive to pick up your kids?

  No, i'm pretty sure she wants me to go in.

  It aint a massive issue to be honest, they do not have the hold over me that they used to have. The thread is more in jest, but i aint looking forward to it lol

  If you're going to the meetings to please your wife, wouldn't she be upset if you didn't go to the memorial??

  So was it at the destruction of Jerusalem at 70CE then? It was mentioned to me today by an old friend, who asked me as an ex jw did i have any thoughts on it. I did mention 70 CE but have never given it a thought.
