here the senerio; they all attend where nobody knows them and do not say anything that would let the jws know they are xs, (of course the would catch on eventually).

they would not all sit together but spread out.

I did it and I don't feel like a pagan!

i was just thinking what it would be like for 20 or 30 xjws to attend a wt study and the havoc they would cause.

here the senerio; they all attend where nobody knows them and do not say anything that would let the jws know they are xs, (of course the would catch on eventually).

they would not all sit together but spread out.

danger of it backfiring - they may see it as persecution and become even more convinced (if that's possible) that they have the truth.

Hi luvbug, welcome

I'm really sorry that you've had such a terrible life.

Unfortunately elders are so busy slaving for the wts they ignore the vulnerable, suffering ones.

this is a good place to heal

Revelation-Book Related Collages (Art)

by GermanXJW in

there is a german xjw-board at http://www.f25.parsimony.net/forum63052/index.htm (this is different to the one i normally refer to).. there appeared a member with the name '+' and presented very sophisticared collages for each chapter of the revelation-book.

(i would love to know who this is.).

they consist of quotes and pictures from this very book but also from very old (contradicting) wt-literature.

When it's not hypochondriasis

by MsMcDucket in

i've been through "this is not nothing" more than i care to recount.

with my husband, they said that he was faking illness to get out of work.

long story short we found the right doctor and he was diagnosed with a soft tissue sarcoma.

Hope her treament is successful.

She's not afraid. When I called her, she said "I'm blessed".

She is a very brave young woman
