  A warning....

  by Justice-One in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i just posted this on another forum i visit, in their "religion" section.

  i wanted to put out a warning, because so many people think the jw's are "good people" and may get sucked in before they know it.

  what ya think?......

  JW dress fads

  by rassillon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was just looking at the revelation book and some of the illustrations reminded me of some of the dress fads which i have seen growing up as a jw.

  what fads did you see at the halls?.

  the one that got me to thinking was the sun dress on page 51. .

  Do Jehovah's Witnesses crave an 'Amish Paradise'?

  by Gill in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  from as long as i remember the watchtower society has painted an idyllic rural scene for their future existence on the planet earth, free from the non jehovah servers that live now.. my mother regularly talks about her 'little donkey and cart' that she's going to own in the 'new system of things'.. so do the jehovah's witnesses dream of living in an 'amish paradise' minus the amish, of course?.

  do they have any idea what kind of nightmare existence that entails, especially adding on top of that five meetings a week, continuing fs, studying etc?.

  Your favourite place....

  by diamondblue1974 in

  do you have a favourite place in the world...if so where is it, why and do you have photos?.

  mine has to be nisyros (a very small greek island near kos); i last visited there some years ago and ever since i was captivated by its beauty and tranquility.

  in short its a volcanic island but unspoiled by tourism; the people are amazing and so down to earth.. take a look.

  What's your favourite food style?

  by kwintestal in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've been really into indian lately myself, but went to a decent jamacian restaurant the other day.. the reason i'm asking is because my wife and i decided that once a week we're going to try making something totally different together, kind of a way to spend time together and at the same time eating awesome food (if it turns out) other then going to a restaurant.

  i'm kind of looking for different ideas of what to make.. kwin.

  NYC people or those that have been there

  by mariposa in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it appears we will be visiting nyc from about the 16th of dec. for a week or so.

  we are going to see some long lost friends of my husband in queens and i'm sure they'll show us around, but there's also going to be alot of drinking and catching up between them and i'll have quite a bit of free time on my hands.

  i don't know if we're going to stay with them or not, i've been checking on craigslist for an apt or something we could rent.

  What funeral will you have?

  by Gilberto in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there has been a couple of threads about death just lately and it got me thinking about what funeral i would have.

  i hope it won't be for many years yet though.. when you are a dub it would have just happened.. when i was fading i would have just accepted that it would have been what my wife wanted.

  i would have also had to have a dub funeral for her.
