  Memorial attendance down?

  by TweetieBird in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  last night 3 congregations met at the assembly hall for the memorial.

  there were just a little over 800 there which really surprised me.

  in past years every congregation around here usually had at least 300 in attendance.

  Suckered into the memorial after all

  dang!.

  things happened with my mom (dad couldn't get back from his out of town job) and i ended up being guilted into going to the memorial with her after all.

  at least she agreed to take the kids home with her afterwards so my friend and i could still go out for a few drinks afterwards (which were much needed after that experience).. i'm da'd so many there smiled when they saw me and it immediately froze on their faces as they tried to look the other way.

  This is a really good one....

  by Inquiry in

  1. jw

  hey all..... i recently heard the funniest prank..... a neighbour of mine came over, with a beer i might add.... nice fellow... and during conversation found out that i used to be a witness... he was asking me questions and then he got this funny smirk on his face... i thought it was something i said, so i asked him what i did.... he started laughing and said he was just remembering what he and a friend did about three years ago around christmas time..... i had been out of the borg for over a year at that point.... apparently, these two pranksters... of course whilst drinking deeply of the barley and hops laden waters of life.... went to a canadian tire, bought $75 worth of christmas lights (about $5 usd...lol) and in the wee hours of a sunday morning... put them up around my old kh and lit them up for all to see when they came in for the 10 am meeting..... i asked around and apparently it's true!

  laugh!

  i thought i'd die!!!!!

  JWs- Evolutionary failures.

  by refiners fire in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have the feeling this idea has been posted before by someone..however.... in evolutionary/ genetic terms the witnesses are a failing experiment.. they have discouraged large families, hence they are not winning in terms of numerological growth.. they have discouraged education.

  so they are not winning in terms of societal prestige/ success.. they have failed abysmally!

  !law of evolution says they must wither and become extinct.. the mormons are doing much better.. they breed like crazy.. education, im not too sure about...

  well they are scabbling around to find as many people to attend the memorial again this year.. i walked out 3.5 years ago and have not heard anything since from the elders.

  i have one that lives about 50 metres away and he is one that has not even telephoned me in all that time.

  .. just the other night he turns up on my door step and hands me the usual invite!

  Did Jesus Sin?

  by KJV in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  have you ever wondered why god dealt with man up until the first century c.e.

  and then for the last 2,000 years we haven't heard from him?

  could it be that god is upset with mankind for killing his son?
