  Dramas

  by In_between_days in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the funniest things i will ever remember as a jw are the "big dramas" at the assemblys.

  it was amazing how everyone would sit through the torture of the infinate talks and "skits" with an incredibly bored look on their faces, yet when the drama got closer, the apathetic faces piped up, became animated, excited.

  it was, as far as i could see the "best of the worst" piece of the programme, and by god, even though i spent almost the entire time at the assemblies outside feeding ducks, i was always in one of the front rows for the drama.

  i dont know if anyone is interested in this, but i have been doing alot of research on popular cults.

  my husband was a member of this religious group that i am about to display for 21 years.

  his background is so similar to my own that it is bizarre.. www.freedomofmind.com/groups/rci/rci.

  Dub Fads

  by In_between_days in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when you were a jw, did you witness a rather large enthusiasm from your congregation for passing fads?

  what i mean is, one dub would start something and everyone would join in?

  this was especially prevelant with the women of the congregations.. for instance, for a while every female dub was undertaking this strange diet where they basically drink this really odd and particularly disturbing looking mushroom that they kept in their fridge.

  2. friends

  i have an ex jw friend who has been out for about 3 years now, and has since been going to every memorial just to keep her family happy.

  she is baptised, and so far has sucessfully done the fade, though she has never actually told her parents that she wants no part of the org.

  now the memorial is coming up and her family expects her to go.

  subliminal pictures in WT publications

  by In_between_days in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a recent thread got me quite interested in this, as i was amazed to hear that some people have seen "demonic" looking picture in dub publications; i do remember being shown by a dub in the revelatiopn book a picture of jehovah (or jesus, i cant remember ) smashing something with a big rod, adn there is a hideous lloking claw, reaching up trying to grap the stick (or sceptre i cant remember what it was) sorry if this post is really incoherant, i just had two double vodkas with vanilla coke!!.

  anyway, i was quite astonished ot read that others have seen other images.

  what im after in this thread is a list of where people have seen these images and in what publications; i remember showing this certain picture to my family and them saying "are you really trying to tell me that jehovah would allow the demons to do this in his publications.
