I've never seen them in the same place at the same time.

....besides the colts winning..... .
both coach dungy and smith and many players on both teams are christian.
i felt that they were a good witness to the world in respects to their beliefs.
Sorry,...looks like much has already been said on the topic.

Both coach Dungy and Smith and many players on both teams are Christian. I felt that they were a good witness to the world in respects to their beliefs. Dungy, Smith, and many players gave the glory to God.
In contrast, "Brother Prince" was a fine witness to visual perversion. Don't get me wrong,...I like Prince's music. He's an amazing musician. However,...I thought it was funny/ wrong to see a JW on the world stage purposely displaying a large phallus behind that curtain. What a good witness!....I mean there are children watching.
I wonder if he will be surrounded by the elders after the meeting this week and counseled on his phallic symbol.
hehe prince just performed bob dylan's classic "all along the watchtower" at the super bowl halftime show.
you think he was counting his time.
if he performs next year how many rv's would that be?
Do you think Prince wears those type outfits to the meetings or in field service?
I can't seem him in the conservative Jdub wear,...shirt, tie, suit jacket.
I bet he has the most stylish book bag in the congregation.
the colts just beat the chiefs!
i'd like to see peyton manning win a super bowl ring!
swalker.
Sweeeeet!!!!!!!!
for those that don't know, here's the cliffs notes version.. i've been df'd for 5 months now for giving in to an addiction i have.
i want to be reinstated so i can gian my family and a few close friends back in my life then i will fade like a bad dye job.
here's the reinstatment letter i have thus far i am open to any input at all.. dear holier-than-thou brothers,.
Wow!
Since you're writing a letter of reinstatement that must mean you have been regularly attending meetings for the past five months. Right?.....I can't imagine.
I admire the iron stomach you have, but can't even really identify how you are able to do this since you now know the truth about the "truth".
To each his own and we all must do what we feel necessary,...so good luck with all that you are dealing with.
However,...I can't help but think about what your relationship with your family will be like once you are reinstated and have completed your fade.
I.E.- I DA'd myself 14 yrs ago and haven't had a relationship with my mom and two of my brothers since then. I also have two other brothers who were never baptised and have faded and been out now for some time. I can't really say that my brothers have a good relationship with our mom or our brothers that are still in. My mom and brothers don't completely shun them but because they are no longer "believers" a wall has been put up that has hindered a close genuine relationship.

Just curious,....how much of your letter do you actually believe?
Go Colts!
Colts 21
Bears 10
yes, no or maybe....and why?
Never.
Why? Because the end of false religion is near.
the basic scoop: my best jw friend from michigan came into org with his wife when he was about 26 (he's about 45 now.
) he loved the org, but, aside from being a really cool and interesting guy, he also suffered from depression quite a lot.
more than 10 years ago he approached me about anti-jw stuff he found online.
I would also keep mum about WT stuff during your first meeting if possible. I think it would be best just to catch up on everything and show that you would like his friendship now.
Yet, there is always that possibility that he will be curious and want to know why you are no longer attending meetings. If this happens, I wouldn't lie,...but I would be honest and explain the whole situation.
You could always start it out by saying something like,".....well,...funny thing,...remember back years ago when you showed me that info questioning the WT?"...etc.,etc.
If he doesn't bring up the WT in your first meeting then the meeting could be a good way to diminish those JW buzz words in his mind (by just being yourself and being his friend) that are cognitive of the word "apostate". I.E., "demonized", "worldly", "fallen away" etc, etc.
I think it's also good for people in his situation to see that there is life after the WT.
