  Recent Talk by CO

  by restrangled in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my uncle just informed me that a talk given 2 months ago "obedience or innovation" by the co sent chills up his spine.

  this talk is apparently making the rounds delivered by all co's and is part of what seems to be a get in or be shunned renewed effort.

  it is the same talk that apparently sent my mom over the edge with me after 30 years out.

  it's the day that i am getting married!

  i've waited 42 long years for this day and it's been well worth the wait!

  although we cannot afford a big honeymoon, but we've been lucky to get 2 free nights at a local hotel, compliments by her cousin.

  How do the elders deal with a very poor brother or sister?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  lets say a brother or sister loses their job, falls on welfare, doesn't have enough to eat.

  what do the elders do?

  a) tell them that the organization is not a place to beg but to preach, to give and not to receive.

  I'd like to introduce myself

  by Alpheta in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm "alpheta".

  i've been reading here for the past few weeks, but have visited from time to time over several years.. short history, i started studying in 1993, was baptised in 1996, and succinctly and with much planning disassociated myself in october, 2003.. i don't believe i have any lasting psychological damage or issues, but i was curious about the state of the wtbts (or whatever they go by these days), and i found your site and a lot of information that, i have to say, i found shocking at first like - oh my goddess, they really did that?

  - kind of thing.. anyway, nice to have read your posts and i really enjoy the sense of community here.

  Do You Think That You Might Turn Back To Jehovah?

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i`ve never yet been snubbed by a jw.

  the reason is that i refuse point blank to speak to them unless they speak to me first.

  so, if i`m visiting my jw mum and jw visitors arrive which they often do i just smile, raise one eyebrow slightly, and look `em straight in the eye!.
