My favourite was a single brother I knew who would have sex with a pioneer sister before the meeting for field ministry. As far as I know nobody ever found out.
Then there was the usual adultary, incest, theft, drug taking etc
witnesses are supposed to be "exemplary" and not like the "world".
yet some jws are pretty notorious.. did you know of any jws that did some real bad things?.
i knew a pious witness who got caught twice trying to solicit prostitutes.

if someone did this at a kingdom hall regardless of the directions, what would happen?
would the bride run away shrieking in horror while dodging this satanic shower.
would the groom and his "boys" drag the person out of the hall, so witnesses could shower them with rocks?
I was at a witness wedding where the best man raised his glass and asked everyone to join him in a toast. He was the brides brother, the reaction was complete silence, nobody moved or said a word. Looking back I wish that I had had the balls to join him.
the wts has announced the usual handbill invitation "campaign" for the conventions this year.
i haven't seen a copy but i assume that it will be similar to the one for congregation meetings and from previous years.
the usual 30 per publisher allocation.. i seriously wonder about the efficacy of these campaigns.
Most JWs I knew, including myself would literally sh*t themselves if anyone ever expressed an interest in "the troof"
again...please do not request a pdf scan these are interbranch copies not the same ones sent to the congregations.
jwf.. january 21, 2010 .

"come to his senses" LOL

he doesn't serve jehovah.
i'd like to tell you a story, about true love at last.
This makes me angry
Walk into almost any KH and you will find dubs who are divorced, wife beaters, adulterers etc.
I find the level of divorce / infidelity quite staggering amongst dubs, at least 50% of the age group that I grew up with have been affected in this way.
Just been informed that yet another pair of 18 year olds are to be married in my old congregation - the chances of being together by their 30s are stacked against them!
putting on a three piece suit to spend a 90 degree summer day knocking on doors and trespassing!dragging an entire family, including babies and young children to three or four day meetings in an outdoor stadium, living in a seedy motel room for the week.getting home from work and spending the next six hours cramming for a 'theocratic review', getting the entire family ready to go, gulping down dinner, and speeding off to the hall, and then finally getting home around 11 pm, hurrying off to bed so that everyone could get up for work and school in the morning!going to school to explain to the teachers why little johnny can't color pictures of santa, salute the flag of his country, eat birthday cake with all the other 5 year olds, bow his head when prayer is offered, or exchange valentines with all the cute 5 year old girls in class.
and then explaining with grace why he is not immersed in a cult!well, on and on!
these things were typical of my witness life - now i cannot imagine ever doing such silly things, and especially thinking that somehow they would bring pleasure to my god!.
What were we thinking?
Oh we wern't allowed to were we

we were conversing and she said it like it was a fact that she simply has accepted.. i actually found it quite funny..
"What a loving arrangement"
