Wow, letsslatejws! JWs walked out of Pocahontas?!?
The most embarrassing time for me was when I was strong-armed by my parents into walking out of a "PG" movie when I was about 12 years old. Walking out all together was bad enough, but my Elder-Dad had to make loud, self-righteous comments in an effort to shame other JWs in attendance to follow suit. None did.
My siblings and I all vowed to never go to a movie with our parents again.

brazilian court rules mcdonald's must pay obese employeefriday 29th october, 06:30 am jst.
sao paulo .
a brazilian court ruled this week that mcdonalds must pay a former franchise manager $17,500 because he gained 65 pounds (30 kilograms) while working there for a dozen years.. .
The guy should have become a chain smoker like Anthony Bourdain and he would have stayed skinny as a rail!

Why?

those who have lived with the opposite sex know of the frustration of being lectured about some triviality.. the toilet seat/paper controversy is among the most inflammatory.. men who forget to put the toilet seat back down inspire anger, rage, resentment and the stern lecture.. the easiest solution is to train the man to always sit down when he goes.. .
others argue over the direction of the toilet paper: forward overlap or backward underlap.. .
how do you deal with these issues and how violent do you become?.
Always leave both parts of the seat clean and down.
Paper over the top.
Don't discuss the logic of any part of this.
Enjoy a long, happy marriage.

One very ho-hum movie from the mid-80s, Legal Eagles, starring Robert Redford, Debra Winger & Daryl Hannah had a LOT of shots of Bethel buildings in it.

Which brings up another aspect of JWism and movies.
How closed-lipped were you to other JWs about which movies you had seen?
I remember when Legal Eagles came out, I was still living in a VERY conservative area of the US and there was a bit of a controversy among the local JWs because some were saying "Oh, have you seen Legal Eagles? You should! It's got lots of shots of Bethel in it." And of course, in any congregation, there's going to be someone who will take issue with any movie. Elders even got drug into the fray because some JWs hadn't learned the lesson not to blab your movie viewing habits all over the Kingdom Hall.

im a big wimp so is my husband, every time the elder turns up we go yer yer come next week what ever and wel sort sumat out.
which we dont mean its our brain washed mind talking and its very weak,.
Tell them that your family has decided to start attending another congregation. Ask them to send the your publisher record cards and a letter of introduction to the new congregation. Pick one that is at least 10 miles away and that you have no contacts with. If you're up to it, you could actually attend one meeting there and make sure to get the name of the Coordinator of the Body of Elders and the Secretary. That will add credibility to what you say.
Then the next time they show up, tell them that you're being "shepherded" by the new congregation and want to follow Jehovah's arrangement. Thanks for stopping by though.
