whats the funniest comment heard from the audience during a wt study/book study/service meeting?.
we had a young retarded kid in our cong , who had his hand up for every single question , usually the bro would take his comment as he would just say "jehovah" but this time he takes the mic and starts this long winded comment rounded off with"satans going to cause a civil war!
priceless !.
A brother gave an experience about the brothers in "Thighland".
A brother said we had a "spriritual enema".
We had a sister Pane, and the WT conductor called on "sister Pane in the rear".
In a service meeting part about Bible reading, a sister raised her hand and said she did her Bible reading in bed late at night bacause it was so boring it put her to sleep.
i have a great neighbor who has always looked out for us and sent over very expensive pet food at no cost because she is in the business.. she has been a great neighbor all around for many years.
her daughter and my son are very good friends.. just this week she asked my son to take care of her pets.
he went surfing today and asked me to cover.. when i went over i was so alarmed, and came back so depressed i do not know what to do.. it is an 800 square foot house with 2 dogs, must be 8 fish tanks full of turtles, a cat,and a parrot sitting in a dusty cage in the dark.
Yes-call the ASPCA or Animal Control or somebody...
i am in the process of writing a letter to my mothers sister (aunt) about the un/watchtower fiasco.
my aunt will not speak to my mother or father because they are d'fed (for the un/watchtower fiasco).
however, i guess she thinks that i am a weak link and she sent me a letter, basically, stating the same thing that all jw's say in defence of the watchtower.
I love your line of reasoning. I hope I never have to use it, but I'll keep it in mind.
no hype - no rumor please.. anyone who still goes to the hall might hear something during the announcements.
i will be going myself and will be sure to report back what is said, if anything.. from channelc.. .

Blondie: I distinctly remember the donation change being announced on a Sunday because I thought it was odd.
As for this new announcement that may come this week, my meeting is on Tuesday, so I'll let ya'll know.
going out in field service monday thru friday 9 till noon, knocking on empty doors while most people are away at work.
knowing no one will be at home.
why is there not a massive effort for evening witnessing when you know most people will be home and able to be reached.
It's not about ingathering. It's about keeping those who do it occupied and too busy to go anywhere else.
hi, i just joined this site and thought i would say hi.
my brief history is being raised as a witness, disfellowshiped for being a normal 17 year old, spending 10 years feeling guilty and thinking im going to die and so will my husband and son.
mother and father in it and always run out crying because they think they failed as parents cause none of their kids stayed in it.
Welcome Pippi, don't get sucked back in to the borg!
does anyone know if there is any information on whether it is correct or not for elders to allow a private wedding at the kh?
it was my understanding that the kh was a public place.
.
You might want to read the new Oct 15 Watchtower. It contains 2 study articles plus a followup article on weddings. A true example of overstepping the bounds of what is allowed in the scriptures, in my opinion.
I could not believe that with all the important things that could be discussed they would dedicate so much space to "weddings". I guess they don't have anything better to do.
hi, i rarely post on this forum nowadays, as linda (fullofdoubtnow) tends to do the posting from this house, but i decided to post this myself.
i am currently building an information website for local ex jws, along with a couple of ex jw friends, and recently received a couple of emails from a current jw who, according to him, stumbled on the site by accident, although it clearly states that it is an ex jw site.
he found an article i had written on jw child abuse policy objectionable, although everything i have written, both in that article and the rest of the site, is verifiable, which i told him in my reply.
Dear Dadpoet: Don't reply in kind. Show them that you are above their hostile and unchristian ways.
i am still "in" the org (technically) and i have never got the same answer twice.
i have been told that if you don't report time for one month then your considered inactive for six months.
i have also been told that if you don't report for six months then your inactive.
FF and Blondie are correct. I have three more months to go, yipee!
this was posted on an email group that i belong to.
since the author doesn't belong to this one, i asked if i could copy and paste the post here, and this poster said "yes".
so here we go, with permission:.
I have relatives in NYC and I know for a fact that some wittnesses did die. They personally knew at least one of them. Following 9/11, the talks I heard were encouraging in the sense that they stressed that anyone can be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Dying in something such as 9/11 is not a reflection on loosing Jah's favor, and surviving the attacks does not indicate special treatment (angelic protection). "Time and unforseen occurances befall us all".
What you heard was the product of immature, stupid people talking about things they know nothing about.
