21Finding time
by Jordandemm inis it possible to full time pioneer while working a full time job without making up the hours?
i know of a brother who recently got married too a pioneer the guy was really desperate to get married because his wife despite her many 'spiritual credentials' has very few christ-like qualities unfortunately, anyway that's besides the point.
he is a pioneer now and i'm sure he will be a ms soon the organisation likes that type of stuff the 'pioneer couple' so it shouldn't come as a surprise.

I lied to the elders
by atacrossroads ini stopped attending meetings all together in january 2015. before that my attendance was irregular at best.
my husband followed suit a few months ago after months of research, agony, and indecision on his part.
from the very beginning i laid low and did not share with anyone what i found out about the witnesses because i did not want to be df'd.

what a selfish person I was
She said she did not raise me to be stupid
Cult or not, I'll never be able to wrap my brain around such hurtful statements especially coming from a person who gave birth to you... It's disgusting and completely vile. I'm so, so sorry you had to endure such abusive treatment...

Landy - Just made a thread bitching about that, lol. But, you are so right. Better to be single then with someone and alone. It's heartbreaking and I know the feeling well... -

Miss it right now but not in the past. I doubt I'll ever really be in a committed relationship and don't really want to be anymore. I don't think there should be anything wrong with that either just like it shouldn't be looked down upon if you don't want kids. Do what makes you happy.

by Bangalore inhttp://dailycaller.com/2016/01/25/suit-teacher-sacked-for-not-throwing-valentines-day-party/.
a former public elementary school teacher who is a jehovah’s witness has filed a lawsuit against the suburban detroit school district where she used to work because, she claims, school officials ordered her to organize a classroom valentine’s day party and then sacked her because she refused.. people who belong to the jehovah’s witnesses, a millenarian christian sect, do not celebrate valentine’s day.
thus, the teacher, yvonne lemmons, is suing for religious discrimination, reports michigan live.. the defendant in the lawsuit is the southfield public school district in southfield, mich.. lemmons, 56, says in her lawsuit that she had been a fourth-grade teacher at macarthur university academy, a public magnet school, for 10 years and had faced no issues concerning her religious beliefs prior to the valentine’s day party kerfuffle..

knock knock
by Sabin inif jw`s come knocking at your door, do you open it & engage in conversation, tell them to sod off, or just not answer the door?.
my husband`s has asked me not to answer the door to them if he isn't here?
he hate`s the fact that they make a point of calling when they know he will be at work.
