I have a touchy situation...could use some advice
by tenyearsafter ini just got an e-mail from my 80 year old mother asking my wife and i to join her for the memorial this year.
i really don't want to go, but i am also trying to maintain some degree of a relationship with her.
she is breaking the "rules" by not shunning me, but i don't know how she will react if i reject her invitation.

though I like the monkey's idea about licking the cat clean and getting drunk
I think I would have to be getting drunk before licking the cat clean!
Go with your gut....... if it were me I'd go but I'm DF'd and I'll be blowed if I am going to be snubbed by all and sundry. Such is conditional love.

Teel ...... sorry, just re-read what I'd written. Does seem like I'm spouting off at you - not the case at all. I was referring to the website, instructing me how to get around his/her crappy design.
I do know, indeed, realise you were joking. I take nearly everything I read on the internet as a joke until it doesn't make laugh, then I reckon it could be serious.

35 years and loads of years as an MS (never had the brass neck nerve to cowtow to their rules and make Elder) which leads to ......
Has to be their hypocritical stance over the UN issue and their trifling reasons behind it.
Many 'straws' really but that one broke the camel's back

Teel ----- I would've done if I didn't have to 'bounce' all over the place to find some reading instructions.
When do I have to be told how to read something..... oh, hang on. That would've been before 2002 for 35 years when I was told how to do everything!

Does anyone remember when the Watchtower website first opened, it wasn't mentioned in the magazines or at the meetings for a while?
by slimboyfat ini seem to remember that from the mid-ninties onwards there were articles in the km and watchtower warning about the dangers of the internet.
as a result it seemed to come as a bit of a surprise to some witnesses i knew when the society opened up their own website.
but as i recall, when the society first opened the website, they never mentioned it in the literature or at the meetings.

I do remember the time I discovered their site. I felt cheated by them.
I guess, inwardly, that started my questioning but it still took ages before I got out.
