  Where did England disappear to?

  by dorayakii in

  2. current

  england is the oldest nation-state in europe.

  it is a pround and historic nation that is often buried under a "british" identity by the uk government.

  within the european unon, scotland and wales are treated as regional entities, yet england is broken up into 6 regions and is not acknowledged as an entity in itself.

  Do you think that England is disenfranchised?

  All that would never have happened had Englang remained a French colony

  hi everyone, in the congregation i grew up in, it was very cold and unloving.

  circuit overseers would come and go, they would give counsel and nothing changed.

  at one time even the do came at the same time as the co and gave counsel to 'widen out'.

  Same thing in France, congregations (and people in general) from the north (which correspond to the south of England...) are said to be more friendly than the southern ones.

  But families in all of them are nice to the young lads when they have daughters eligible for marriage.

  I was "too smart for my own good".

  That is what Barbara GRIZZUTI HARRISON reports an elder's wife having said about her when she was in bethel.

  Dubs - Paradoxes From Hell

  dubs - paradoxes from hell.

  jesus said his yoke was kindly and light.. dubs brag their religion is the "hardest religion in the world.".

  the bible tells children to honor their parents.. the wts tells children to betray their parents.. if dubs really live in a "spiritual paradise," why do their lives have to be threatened to stay in it?.

  Thank you Farkel, another gem in the vein of your past articles (visit to Beth Sarim, etc). You realize, I suppose, that you bear the heavy responsability of remaining the last storyteller on this site. Thanks, and carry on entertaining us in your abrasive way.

  This is also a call to GaryBuss, who promissed a following to his Okies stories

  Hei, Jen,

  if your departing from your husband has anything to do with the fact that he is still a JW and you are out, and provided you still have a measure of feeling for him, my opinion is that the difference is not worth breaking a marriage and you must not let a religion split your family.

  Closing the barn door after the horses have fled

  this "news" is months late and i post it now simply because i don't want to let the moment slip by.

  these are direct quotes from david pesch at the edmonton 2009 "keep on the watch" district convention.

  they were startling enough for me to make notes verbatim.

  It is the very first time I hear about JWs participating in the elimination of the wicked. We were more used to the Stand still and see the salvation of Jehovah discourse.

  Hei, Grace,

  I do hope you feel comfortable in your new place, is it that you had a repressed desire for bethel life ? Please don't take it bad, I'm just joking. I do wish you the best, with your family and friends around you.

  you'd just never know it

  I'm under the impression that someone, within battalions, must know, though
