top 10 fugitives, one is a JW

by lancelink in

this afternoon i was reading the local newspaper and there was an article of the most wanted fugitives in the u.s. .

interested, i went through each person, reading all the charges against each one.

suddenly there was the phrase "jehovahs witness" whoa, back up a minute they dont do anything that bad!!?

Worshiping the cross

by Amyfa in

jw
friends

there is a poster on here called reniaa and she has said a few times that we worship the cross.

i know i don't and know my family don't.

so i decided to look into it to find out if what she is saying is true.

I reflect on what it means and it reminds me of what I was taught about God as a child.

That he loves everyone, and he died for all,

not just a few who proclaim loyalty to the WTBTS.

Ran into the JW table at San Diego airport...

by Confession in

yes, my ladyfriend and i were entering the san diego airport for our flight home to phoenix late yesterday afternoon, when i noticed a forty-ish man and woman sitting down behind a table loaded with wts publications.

i stopped to glance over them with joy.

i made familiar comments about some of the publications, noting the newer soft covers and trying to casually engage the pair in conversation.

"What a huge waste of time, energy and my 20's and 30's. I used to get up at 4:00am so I could meet my group at 5:30 -- 30 miles away."

Oh My God, 4 am for service !!!

It would be great to tac up a poster in front of the table with a quote from the WT discussing the evils of higher education......
HA HA thats great !
I work at a college and I recently found out that the JW's have a table and just sit there.
Posting something about higher education,, man I just might try that, or leave copies of an article talking about the WT view of college
early in the morning before they arrive,,,
could someone suggest an article to use ??

Did you enjoy your double lives in the past?

by asilentone in

any regrets?

lancelink

Not really.
I was the definition of straight and righteous while a catholic as a youth.

When I started to associate with the JW's I learned how much fun I had been missing.
We would drink beer and whiskey heavily, smoke pot, date worldly girls, go to R rated movies (Saturday night fever was my 1st one)
sneak into a local disco, and generally act like normal kids of the "world."
Then the next day it would be go to the meeting, give a comment, go out in service, converse in an up building way with ones at the KH .
And guess what ?
The majority of kids I hung out with were the children of elders, and the PO !!!
In fact we had a secret code name for ourselves,,,, "The unholy JW's"

it always bothered me a little at that time that this group of people who considered themselves to be
Gods chosen people living for God in the last days were so morally corrupt on the inside. Yet at the meetings and in service they really
were able to fool people with their pretend action.

Thanks Randy and Kevin for your help, it took 30 years for me to realize what a fool I was.

Christian Love in action

by lancelink in

this past weekend i was speaking to a friend who attends the hall that i once did in northern illinois.

we were catching up on the latest news regarding the mass disfellowshipping (53) of teenagers that happened in the area, and she shared .

they were talking about the dfing and he said that they needed to be cast out, it was akin to "scourging" and hopefully they would wake up and realize what they had done.

the mass disfellowshipping (53) of teenagers that happened in the area

I forgot to mention that this happened in one circuit, not one hall.

And so far it sounds like pornia and drinking.
