we've all known those fanatical witnesses who are guilty of pdf (public display of faith) and always have to make a big song and dance to the whole world and let everyone and their dog know they're a faithful witness of jay hoover!.
1) when my mother first came in 'da troooof' this wacky, over zealous 'sister' was studying with her - you know the type.
this woman was one of those not so subtle individuals who would always talk loud in conversation and say the name jehovah a million times even when the conversation could have been about basketball.
Ok, I've thought of a story...
I was a teenager and was doing door to door with my friend. She goes to the door, lies about what her name is, then makes up a name for me... All the meanwhile laughing the whole time, lol. Then, she says that I have something I want to say to them. Omg, I had no idea what to say. In the end, since I was on the spot and nervous, by accident I told the householder my real name, lol.

back when i was a jw and an attendent at the km.
i was looking at everyone sitting there at the meetings.
it was amazing when i realized that the majority of married couples that where sitting there had either mean married to someone else before, or had sex with other people before they had got into the "tooth.
WNB - You attracted to the kitten or the lion, lol?
I was the same way with the JW sex... I remember thinking it was really good a couple of times... Then, I found out how it was supposed to be... lol... WOW! What a difference... Guess I was like you... Nothing much to compare it to... Plus, there was so many things I didn't know.
Anyways, I can see wanting to make up for lost time... For me, all of a sudden there was so much exploring to do, lol. Now, even though compared to most people I haven't been with a lot of people still, although I thought 4 was kinda high to me, I think I'm crazier then 95% of worldly people... I think because you become like a spring that's held down for so long... Once your let loose, you go like a speeding bullet the opposite way...

PS. Question for any brave souls....How many sex partners have you had in or out of the "Borg?"
I've had sex with 4 people -2 while in, and the rest while out... Been madly in-love with one of them.
andersonsinfo is reporting the following news about the "criminal charges and indictment of the watch tower society in australia" by taking some extracts from different parts of jehovah's witness, steven unthank's blog site, http://www.jwnews.net.
please go to the blog to understand the "indictment" and for detailed reading there is much more information found in a:.

Ok, I don't really get this. Why aren't the individuals getting penalized for not getting the background check instead of the society?
Also, I still don't get how the WT Corporation in NY would be affected at all...
cause i see a bunch of inactive doing disfellowshipping things and its known by the elders and the elders aren't doing anything because they are inactive.... so, just wondering if the rules have changed, or there is more of a loophole somewhere that wasn't there before?.
hmmm, so how long do you have to be inactive for them not to bother you? What if you go to one meeting every once in awhile? What if you are married to a JW so are still in association with JWs?
If you are celebrating a holiday and they want to haul you into a jc, can you tell them they aren't supposed to bother you because you are inactive and then they just leave you alone?

so i attended a funeral for a jw who passed away (non-"annointed) and i would have to state that although i have heard the standard funeral talk outline for dozens of funerals i've attended, i never really took the time to listen.
and my god, i was cringing.
the outline is essentially broken down like this:.
I was just at a JW funeral this past Sat. I wonder if it was the same one?
did anyone have to endure the wt study today at the kh?
i did and boy it was a doozy.
saying things like "christendom deserved destruction for misleading people spiritually...." talking about false prophets, etc... the irony of all of this is that their judgements on christendom apply to them.
Omg Blacksheep... That's so funny. I did that once when I was in the beginning stages of getting out. I was at a quick build and a brother wanted to do the WT as a group cause we were doing parking which was away from where the WT study was. I announced that we can't do that because CLEARLY it was against scripture. In front of the group he argued with me and quoted the scripture about where there is 2 or 3 there is Jehovah's spirit and that I was completely wrong and what I said was in fact against scripture...
A brother quickly took him aside to talk to him. The confusion on everybody's face was priceless. We got outta doing the WT that day, lol.

europe court to hear jehovah witness tax case against france 9-29-10. the european court of human rights said wednesday it had agreed to consider a case brought by the jehovah witness christian sect against the french government over taxation of donations.. in its request, the group alleged an infringement of the right to religious freedom saying the french government had tried to curtail its activities by demanding in may 1998 taxes on donations from its followers.. the sect said the move was an attempt to end the autonomy of religious communities.. french authorities say the donations were not raised from a religious source and so were subject to the same rules as other donations.. the 1998 demand was for 45 million euros (61 million dollars) at the time, but this amount had since reached 57.5 million euros, according to france.. it involves donations from 250,000 people over four years, an average amount of four euros per person a month between 1993 and 1996.. the court, based in the french city of strasbourg, however rejected a case of religious discrimination against the jehovah's witnesses.. .
