Prop 8 - Petition against the tax-exempt status of the Mormons
by Devilsnok ini see no reason why any organised religion should be exempt from paying their due taxes.
here's a chance to rob the mormon church of their tax exempt status.... please visit http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/review-the-501c3-status-of-the-church-of-latter-day-saints-the-mormons and sign it and pass it on to your friends.. .
the lds church contributed a significant amount of money and effort to endorse prop 8 in california via its network of church, media, and community outlets enshrining discrimination under the law for thousands of californians and their families.. .

They would be more freaked if you called him Satan
Actually I think it's illegal to call your child Jehovah in some countries.

angels are directing jws in the ministry - of course!if you don't answer the door - god will kill youif you don't listen to us - god will kill youbrainwashing of minor children is a real winnercalling on empty houses may seem like a waste of time - but to dubs it's the work of angelsfor the bethel drone monitoring this post - wake up and smell the coffee, before you're made to leave your cosy brooklyn office and hack the streets calling on empty houses.. you can be sure lett will be right behind you!.

I finally said it...I don't like jw's
by kzjw ini'm vacation and watched as my wife headed out for her piosneering this past monday...i was pissed, because i'm here, but she'd rather be out there, hawking the wares of the borg as a non-paid employee.
i stewed in the house for 3-4 hours, angry that i took vows with this woman, but she essentially is forsaking those vows for her "friends", when she knows i don't care for it.
well the tolerance finally wore off!

I think you may have made a mistake in banning Jw's from your house. She'll now go and tell the others that they are banned and the " persecution " alarm will be rung. There's one thing you can't do to an active JW and thats "persecute" them, they batton down the hatches and dig in deep and wont budge an inch on anything.

I was in my late teens and i had been out drinking the night before and wasn't feeling at all well at the meeting the next morning, infact i felt and looked half dead. An Elderly sister in her 70's remarked before the meeting how bad I looked and rushed me off to the mens toilets to put my wrists under cold water (It worked) Then me and this elderly sister had to leave the mens toilet together, straight into the lobby as all these people where coming in for the meeting. A passing elder shot me a look and I got pulled for being in a toilet with a female at the end of the meeting

Things That Irritated You When You Were A JW
by minimus inthere 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.

The "sister sicklys" that you got in every congrigation, always moaning on about their latest alliment, you know the type
"oh i' nearly missed tonights meeting because i've been sat with my butt in a bowl of disinfectant to try to get rid of this boil on my butt, its really painfull to sit down here for two hours but these things are sent by satan to try us"
or
"no ive not been to the meetings recently because i thought I had bird flu"

What are the LAST thoughts of a JW?
by gaiagirl inwhen a jw dies, from results of an accident, disease, or especially, complications resulting from "old age", what do you suppose their last thoughts are?
would they think they have wasted their lives waiting for something which never did and never will come?
or do they really expect to close their eyes and open them in a paradise?
