Good talk with mum and dad
by boyzone inshe's 77 and both mum and dad have been witnesses for nearly 30 years.
they've been pretty hardline in their time but just recently things have changed.
today, to my joy, mum wanted to celebrate her birthday so i bought her a big bunch of flowers and a box of chocolates (yeah i know, not very imaginative) and intend to take them out to lunch tomorrow when i've got more time.

thanks for the comments
some of you guys are wicked, its one thing to laugh at the story, but to tell everyone....
your going straight to hell....
i suppose i can see the slap stick in it, poor old sod.
of course the story in my opinion begs the question is there a god?
simply put without getting out the bible if god gives a shit about people, why does he let bad things happen to them.

i never really understood why witnesses said "a house dosent make it self, or a watch"
how can that possibly be compared to the universe and all that exsists within it
i would love it if there was a god, but the facts say otherwise in my opinion

anyway her daughter drove her there in the car.
when they arrived her daughter was helping her out of the passenger side and she fell and broke her hip.
now apart from that being a very upseting story, please tell me how can there be a god?

America's last WWI veteran, dies aged 110
by shepherd inamerica's last surviving veteran of world war i, frank buckles, has died aged 110.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-12601173.
the gb can change what a generation means but eventually even the most blind jw will see that describing a 'generation' as something that exceeds the lifetimes of all those alive at the time is just silly..

it was stupid enough to give it self a sell by date.
now its up.
but of course they will blame it on being to eager for the end to come.
when will people wake up to religion (and i mean all religion)

If you could choose one book to suggest to a JW...
by SweetBabyCheezits ini'm sure this isn't an uncommon question but i'll ask anyway.. suppose you had the chance to suggest one book, essay, article, or other writing with the goal of helping a loved one wake up... which one would it be?.
bear in mind the goal is to subvert the programmed hair-trigger defenses that cause a complete shutdown of critical thinking.
this automatically excludes anything that would directly place the wt society or its history in a negative light.

I need a show of hands: who believes the Bible and to what extent?
by Terry ini'll start off.. i don't believe anything is divine about bible writings.
i believe there may be some marginal history although not much.
i think alot of folk tales and regional myths are contained in the old testament.

typical witnesses !!!
by warmasasunned ina friend of mine x jw like myself, works as a window cleaner on a road where a family of active jws live.
he watched a situation develop over a say a year were they started a bible study with a local neighbour and eventually he became a jw himself.. now this fella was a bit of a odd bod, looked odd, dressed odd, generally made people feel a little uncomfortable, but not a bad person lets use an often used phrase in england "an eccentric".. well of course he showed a little bit of interest, pherhaps he was lonely.
well of course he was really fussed over by is local jw neighbours, bible study,.

well of course he showed a little bit of interest, pherhaps he was lonely. well of course he was really fussed over by is local jw neighbours, bible study,. invited round for tea, taken to the meetings.
even my friend x jw said "you really saw a change in him, he looked really normal" (whatever that is")
of course once he was baptised the loving witnesses started to back off, they started to talk to him on there door step not inviting him in, then eventually they would talk to him through a closed window.
then this week my friend turned up on the street to do his window round and the jws are moving out.
so he approaches the so called "brother" and asks why he's moving out (he fell away not df)
"oh we can't put up with being bothered all the time by the brother up the road, he's always coming round, he's got to find his own spiritual feet"
my friend smiled to himself an thought "typical witnesess !!!"
