Not really. I never wanted the responsibility that went along with being an Elder or MS. I definitely never wanted to give public talks.

I don't agree with trying to pin this on the religion. As I said in a previous thread, mental people are mental, no matter what their background is.
Thank you for trying to bring balance to the discussion. Our prisons are filled with people who grew up around poverty, violence and abuse. Those are contributing factors to the choices they've made in life, as well. But they don't get a free pass because of it. They aren't absolved of personal accountability.
Let's keep a little perspective, people. There should be something inherent and instinctive in us, which supercedes WT dogma, that makes certain actions unfathomable. Any person who would beat a newborn child to death has psychological issues that run far deeper than the WT. That is what this woman did- beat her own newborn child to death.
Some of the responses on this thread border on pathetic.

GB bitch-slap all apostates with TV.JW.ORG
by gopher123 inwith the launch of tv.jw.org, doesn't this mean that the apostates have won the battles, but finally lost the war?
ezekiel 38 states that in the time of the end, god's people would be prospering with "silver & gold.".
"kiss da rings" bitch!!!.

I think the ones being bitch-slapped are the ones that stay logged on for longer than 30 seconds.

Maybe next time you'll learn how to say "jackasses" in Greek.

In 2016 School (if there are jws), the part will be reduced to "1 minute or less"
Or just one sentence: "(Fill in the blank) disobeyed Jehovah, and he got pissed."

Of course not. They're just whetting people's appetites for the real news- they're bringing back the Hoagie sandwich for next summer's District Convention.

the arrangement for congregations to use the first Saturday of each month to concentrate on starting Bible studies will be discontinued.
This, despite the staggering success rate.

How delighted we are that so many of our children read well! Parents are to be commended for their loving efforts to help their children become good readers.
How revolutionary of JWs to stress the value of reading to their children. The rest of the world should seek to emulate them in the education of the young.

A Nice Story.
by Wrath of Jehu infriends.. i'm sure you will all be encouraged by this nice story related to me by a brother in my old congregation.
4 year old "jana" (not her real name), is from a witness family in a middle sized city.
she has faced many challenges in her pre-school class.

When Jana was asked by the teacher how she felt about not taking part in the celebration she responded "Indeed it is not always easy to remain seperate from the world, but through my bible training which started in infancy, I have learned the difference between right and wrong. Birthdays are clearly condemned in God's word the bible. Although I am just a youth, the lessons i've learned by my loyal attendance at christian meetings has given me the gift of sound reasoning. Indeed, my adherance to christian principles may seem strange to others, but I realize that what is important is that I follow the direction of my heavenly father and the direction he provides through his Faithful and Discreet Slave Class on all matters. While this world and its desires is fleeting, my mind is firmly set on spritual matters with a view of life everlasting always in view. I have already dedicated my life to doing God's will and trust those whom He trusts and hope to symbolize this dedication by water baptism at the earliest possible time."
A 4 year old said all that, huh? *cough* bullshit.

Reality show like The Real World, where single JWs from differing backgrounds share a house, and personality conflicts sometimes arise.
