Hopefully not. I don't want to speak to them at my door ever again. As a matter of fact, when I move this spring (2011-April) I am putting a "NO religious solicitor's" sign on my door.
Hope every one has a Merry Christmas!!
i would think that a portion of the non-jw population might be at church.
i don't think there are any football games that day.
what would you say or recommend to your non-jw neighbors?.

do you feel that something has changed within god's organization?
have you noticed that in the past several years there has been a more authoritarian spirit displayed in the publications and from the platform?
i am in the beginning stages of a fade away and wanted to express my thoughts.
Excellent post!
...when my beloved sister will call me and say " hey sis, you were right, i'm also leaving the borg for good!!
now we can make up for all this lost time and enjoy life together as we should".. i just can't give up thinking that this will come true.. i just miss her too much... and i can't imagine how it must feel for those of you who's lost your children.

I felt very sad when I read your post. Your post hit me in the heart, I have two sisters and I can't fathom not having them around to share my life with. They are my best friends.
I hate what this religion does to families!!! It's a CULT!!

Thanks for sharing that. It's very interesting. We are big history buffs in my family and I will share this with them.

My heart aches for those poor little girls. Religion is the root of all evil.
i googled about getting one with the longest beds.
i do not see any list of trucks with longest beds.
do you have any recommendations for me?.
Chevy Silverado. They last forever.
we are celebrating xmas this year for the first time.
it's kinda weird because, even though we're doing a xmas tree, decorations, gifts, we're more or less taking the christ out of christmas.
so how about the rest of you non-christian heathens?.
I am agnostic. I am celebrating Christmas because it's fun. We are on our 3rd year celebrating it, it's wonderful!! Enjoy it.
i haven't decided.
maybe i'll put it up the week of thanksgiving... i am so excited i cant wait .
I am putting my tree up Thanksgiving evening. I'm so excited about Christmas, I love the decorations, lights, and music. My kids are very excited about it, too.
in the pre game interview, he mentioned that he works on the "rbc" committee to help build places of worship in his community.....a little evasive sounding to me, didn't actually say he was a jw minister.... he has a cleaning business and waits tables at an italian restaurant.
wife and son.. i guess being on the wheel of fortune, is a "grey area.
".
I saw the show and picked up on the "RBC" comment. I kind of figured it out after he said he had a cleaning business and worked at a restaurant. Poor guy didn't win much.
