  i recall my husband talking to the wt conductor (before i da'd), who was asking him about his gym routine etc....as he was explaining, a young brother's name came into the conversation, who also liked to pump iron.

  wt conductor said in a admiring tone "oooh, you should see brother so and so with his top off.

  i actually wonder if there are latent homesexuals in the borg?

  Hey Quelly - ALL RELIGIONS have folks hiding their homosexuality

  Haven't you heard the JWs talk about the sexual abuse among the Catholics, acting like there are no pending lawsuits at Bethel for the same thing?

  I'm absolutely gobsmacked as to a certain person who has posted here

  The pharmaceutical industry is certainly amazing, to quote the great Ralph Kramden when Alice was trying to soften him up to by her a TV set, all I have to say is "I'll have some of what you're having, I wanna get loaded too"

  law school is obviously not the hardest program to follow.

  it isn't something that can be replicated on the internet.

  a first year student can find the law.

  You know she is reading all the comments here but realizes since she signed off for the second time here she cant use

  her usual response to tell someone they have no class and how well educated she is. Class and education are not to

  to be bragged about, it usually shines through, except in her case of course

  I feel sorry for just about everyone else.. even the elder's wife

  i've been busy with with being busy after knowing ttatt.

  after this sunday's meeting i was invited over by one congregation elder's wife to an afternoon coffee.

  we're not very close because of the age gap but we've "known" each other for so many years now, being in the same congregation.. she is like the anchor of the group.

  You should've told her to go out in field service more.

  I know that sounds like a cold response, but if you told her that you frequent an "evil apostate site" I bet she would've turned on a dime and reported you to her elder husband and you would've been called in the backroom before the week is over.

  That's how they do

  Well, you did your job, so it's up to how brainwashed she is since she's already been dunked. She got dunked in September so she's probably still being lovebombed and she's probably thinking that they really love and care about her

  What Motivates Jehovah's Witnesses To Stay In The Religion?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i believe it is mostly guilt.

  many witnesses pioneer or "reach out" in the religion because they feel guilty.. they may feel they aren't doing enough.

  they may have secretly "sinned" against rules imposed by the organization.

  I like Oubliette's analogy above of why they stay in, you just need to add in one more MAJOR ingredient to that mix, mental illness
