WOW. I forgot all about those stupid tests. I loved them because it gave us a break from the usual hum drum bs spewing off the stage. My sis and I would fill in the blanks with 'inappropriate' answers.

Remember the Written Review
by 30girl inwhat exactly was the purpose of the written review?
it was extremely helpful that the society warned you on the calendars which night you had to skip... we had those boards that they passed out so you had a good writing surface, often covered with witness grafiti like, jesus or jehovah or something biblical.
remember the little grading sheet on the back; excellent, very good, good -- was there a poor?

I have heard the "sister and two men 'angels'" story and "the kidnapper stealing a bible story book" story, both told with gushiong passion and praise to Jehovah. I always thought they were a bunch of pooey. How did god choose who to save? Maybe he has a max per day. He never saved me from anything.

Gross...Can't they get their bloated heads out of their ass for one second??
JW#2 especially.
I married my now ex hub seven years ago. All of my JW fam was invited. I was married on the front lawn of an old mansion by a Justice of the Peace, and had a big Italian dinner inside following. Everyone of my fam was set to come, until a week before. I called my mom to ask a question about seating and she informed me that they had thought and prayed and decided that it would look bad to attend this wedding. That meant everyone. So...I'm not a jw anymore, you still talk to me, want me to visit, want to be part of my life... blah, blah blah...but the second something isn't going in your favor you pull the Society card out.
Ironically, my mom and step-dad went to his 'wordly' brother's wedding a week later. IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH. -

Maybe all of the counsel in the TMS helped some learn valuable communication skills. Like others have said, I also learned more in one college class than the 18 years on stage with Bro. Know-it-all telling me how to speak up.
But, the funny thing is...when you're washing windows and scrubbing floors in the wee hours of the morning...who the hell will you be speaking to? -

How many 'real" friends did you ever really have in ther "truth'
by The Lone Ranger insure we got to know a lot of people, we knew a lot more people then the average person, but how many real friends did we ever have?
a friend that we could trust, that we could confine in.
i can say i had just one, bro x and even then i still had to be careful, bro x is an elder now and he tells me that im the only real friend hes ever had, he cant freely talk to anyone.

I found my only true friends when I left the Org. They trust me/I trust them. They keep my secrets. They've got my back and I've got theirs. They love me unconditionally. I couldn't live without them.

Big Announcementitis - JWs and 'Postates
by slimboyfat inwhat is it with jehovah's witnesses and apostates and "big announcements" - they are as bad as each other.
witnesses are always on about big announcements in the pipeline - just to end up being disappointed.
like the time they reduced the pioneers hours - big wow.

That article on the parking scandal is just disgusting. The big boys in New York never cease to amaze me with their lies and deceit.

THE REAL REASON FAMILY MEMBERS SHUN.........................
by vitty ini think the real reason family members shun their "loved ones" is not because they love you and think it will bring you back, or that they are being obedient to god, but that you have totally embarrassed them, brought the family name into disrepute and it now brings into question how spiritual they are.. if they shun you, in their minds, they think the elders, and dubs will not think less of them.
its all about what the "neighbours " think not what the bible teaches.. its about pride not love.. what do you think?.
oh and it gives them brownie points to be used at armageddon.......................just in case.. .

Their whole belief system is based on fear.
They are Afraid of what others will say.
They are Afraid of what others will think.
They are afraid what Jehovah will do to them.
They are Afraid what the gb/elders will do to them.
Hell, I'm still Afraid sometimes. -

Send New Tract to Gay Groups
by metatron inthe society's new tract should be sent to all gay and lesbian groups, warning them about a door to door message that denigrates them.. i would especially target local groups in convention cities in which large gay communities exist.
the tract deserves one simple reply:.
"doesn't false prophecy identify false religion?".
