  Well, I've never been a dub, so my advice is a little "suspect".... but I would:

  1. make her happy for the short term, then slowly start missing a few as a compromise

  2. find something "constructive" to do while sitting in the meeting.... make a "to do" list, print out internet articles that you

  don't have time to read, then read them there, make a list of how many times they use their dub phrases - "system of things", etc.

  3. spy on them and then let JWD know what's happening....

  4. Ask confounding questions...."why don't we wait to be baptised at 30 like Jesus did?" "Why do we wear wedding rings which are pagan symbols?, "Why are there still Bible Students around... who broke off from whom"?

  Like I said, I've never been a dub, but I'm the type that wouldn't sit still by just going back. I'd shake it up a little, or do it my way.

  september 1st wt 2006. .

  page 25 again, para 15. .

  "revelation 7: 9 - 15 gives further details, telling of a "great crowd" from "all nations" who gather in worship and prayer to god "day and night" as they stand in the outer courtyard of the spiritual temple.

  I am almost too tired to ask why none of the Witlesses never pick up on this obvious misrepresentation of scripture, which has to be deliberate.

  Maybe you answered your own question... Is the "obvious" unattainable to them?

  ANNOUNCEMENT Going Undercover To Rescue My Daughter....con't

  by hopie in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  continuation...my hunsband and i were jehovah's witnesses for over 40 years , and my husband an elder for 15 years in orange, calif. we resigned in 1983, and lost our daughter to this cult for 10 years.after all the efforts to communicate failed, i decided to rejoin and become a member again in 1993. we were labled "apostates" and their policy forced my daughted to not talk to us.

  i took this action only so i could communicate with her and eventurally show her their cult-like errors.. i was encouraged by my family to write about my two year rescue journey.

  in it i explain the stuggle of de-programming her through this process, plus the exposing of her elder husband as a (child molester), also the organizational structure, how they operate as a goverment within a goverment, and do not disclose to the civil authorities crimes committed by their members.

  Photo slides to digital -- how do we do it?

  by cruzanheart in

  2. friends

  i have thousands of slides from my life, courtesy of dad (who was a camera junkie like me).

  i'd like to convert them to digital format because some of them -- since i'm so old -- are degenerating (kind of like me).. do any of you smart techie-type people know how to do that?

  i don't have the money to spend to take them to my nearest camera shop, and i'd like to find out what the process is so i can do it myself (or big tex can.

  One of the reasons was because the judges thought that she was too fat.

  Obviously the judge was either and idiot or blind. Nice pixs!
