THAT'S ODD, In my time as an elder we hardley had any turnout for field service on holidays. Most dubs don't really want to talk to people at doors they just want to go out drive around keep not at home records and visit people they already called on who seemed interested. So why would they want to go door to door when they know people will be on the other side.

Doctrine or HIgh Mind Control as the Last Straw
by Band on the Run ini am curious as to whether the final gut deciding factor to leave was inappropriate doctrine or the overly intrusive control of the wt.
reading the bible normally opened my eyes.
i was born-in and never suspected that they were skewing the bible in such a ridiculous manner or misquoting secular sources.

Is this an anti-JW website?
by keyser soze inwhen i registered here over 4 years ago i thought it would be a good place to interact with like-minded christians who loved jehovah as much as i do.
but after reading some of the posts on here i'm beginning to believe that the sentiment on here is largely anti-witness.
i justed wanted to tell you all what vile and hateful people you are..

Do the Governing Body members ever go Door-to-Door?
by 00DAD inin his book, in search of christian freedom, ray franz wrote that that gb members for the most part never participated in door-to-door work.
they were "too busy with more important things.
" (gee, how come that excuse wouldn't work for the rest of us?

Dan Sydlick was visiting our area one time and a brother in our hall (kiss ass kind of elder) asked Sydlick if he would work with him in field service. The kiss ass brother related to me later that Sydlick told him he was on vacation.

I don't get OBVES - do you?
by AK - Jeff init appears that obves started a ton of threads 9 years ago here on jwd/jwn.
all of them [that i have seen] filled with prophetic utterances regarding determining the end.
over those years, all the dates have failed.

JW at work hitting on me!! (for real)
by Free!! inon another thread i mentioned i met some jws at work within the past 2 months.
well, 2 of them became particularly interested and getting to know me (a lady and a guy) the lady is really nice, and the only reason i know she is a jw is because she mentioned something about no b-days or christmas and that was it... she has not tried to preach to me or anything.... .
on the other hand... this young guy, well he is making sure he becomes my friend, asked me to be my fb friend and messages me everyday at work or on fb... now the funny thing is he told me he is a jw and about 3 times already he had suggested i read my bible (whenever i post status about being bored or unable to concentrate on homework), well yesterday he sent me a message that said "i would like to talk to you tonite, maybe we can hit it up" my reaction was .

Could The Watchtower and Awake Collapse?
by metatron inthis is not a prophesy, folks, but rather a train of thought to pursue about the organization, especially in light of its recent legal problems.. could the magazines collapse?
the watchtower is published in 188 languages?
and the awake a rather huge number as well?.

In my book they have collapsed. They are nothing. There so called increase is actually a decrease per capita of the world population they are not the fastest growing religion nor are they even a religion recognized by the majority of the worlds population. Their narrow road is getting narrower and not many want to even walk on it
