  Three unique things...

  i like this topic!

  1. i went to an amusement park with friends when i was 17, when getting ready to go on the bumper boats the attendant told me to not step on the rubber part... listening wasn't my strong suite so i stepped on the rubber part and fell in much to the amusement of everyone there.

  2. for my 18th birthday my friends took me to see male strippers, my friend held money over my head and when the guy came to collect i refused to put it in his g-string and he called me a prude.

  Things That Irritated You When You Were A JW

  by minimus in

  there were some witnesses that loved taking notes for every meeting.

  whatever you would say, the note takers were busy as a bee writing down every word.

  especially if you went out of town to give a talk, certain ones (only sisters) would take their note taking very very seriously.. another thing that used to get to me was when you'd see the same people every assembly on the platform giving a talk or being in a part.

  I hated all the stupid rules....

  North Carolina, 1979. My pioneer partner and I decide we want to grow mustaches. So we show up at the Thursday night meeting with our little fuzzy top lips, and we get invited to the "back room" after the meeting by 2 elders who say we need to shave it off.

  Now the real kicker to this is, we have a MS, another elder, and a C.O. that all have mustaches!

  My pioneer partner shaved his off, I didn't. Gymbob the Rebel

  Great topic!

  I can agree with most of what has already been said, and my life is so much better. It came at a cost though....I knew that my family, sisters and parents, would more then likely NOT leave the Watchtower with me. Hell, I wasn't even sure about my kids. Luckily, they both left with me and life is good. But, I lost my family. However, I know this crazy religion/cult stops with this generation in my family. Gymbob

  Listen To This About GB Losch's Talk That Is Circulating Everywhere!!!!

  the local hall just gave a local needs talk on not circulating losch's talk that's been here on the internet as well as in a number of witness hands.

  evidently quite a few jws are listening to the tape, making copies and letting everyone hear it.

  well, the "faithful & discreet slave" has said not to do this any longer.

  The real funny thing about this is, if there were 100,000+ witlesses in attendance that day....listening...they would say how wonderful it was that, "so many are here in attendance!"

  Yet, now, they don't want any dubs to hear exactly what was said! Gymbob

  Issue of universal sovereignty not settled until after 1000 year reign!

  by yadda yadda 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the watchtower soc and others say that the bible teaches that jehovah is allowing time to pass so that evidence can build up to prove that man cannot live and govern himself independently of god.

  the argument is made that god has tolerated wickedness so that the evidence can gradually accumulate against satan's claim that god's might does not necessarily give him the right to rule and that man can rule himself successfully without god's direct governance.

  when armageddon breaks out, it is said that the evidence will be conclusive that man could not rule himself independently of god and the devil's claims were false.. the analogy is put forward that this drama is being played out like some great universal court case in heaven, with judges sitting examing evidence being presented to assess the devil's claims.

  I think you made some progress with them, at least they're thinking about you!

  So are they going to keep coming over, or did you just agree to disagree on religious issues?

  There was a woman in my cong. a few years back who must have weighed 350+.

  I remember one evening during the meeting she got up to go in the back to visit the ladies room. When she returned to her seat (in the front row) she had some toilet paper stuck to her rear and her skirt was tucked into her underwear! By the time one of the other woman in the hall caught her, she had already given everyone a real view of the fattest ass I have ever seen.

  That sight has haunted me for years......
