"did you know that jws are encouraged to report on other jws who break a medical doctrine such as the ban on blood?
jws will do this to attain status with both jehovah and with peers.
they will tattle-tail even if it breaks medical or legal confidentiality laws.".....

Read this... very interesting... http://www.freeminds.org/sociology/other/why-it-is-dangerous-to-associate-with-jehovahs-witnesses.html

so, you say that jehovah's witnesses aren't "political" or take any part in the affairs of the world?
http://www.osce.org/documents/odihr/2006/10/21654_en.pdf what does the watchtower say about "political" involvement?
OMG... Just found this
this is and always has been one of my biggest gripes: assembly parts/experiences.
not 1....ever......e-v-e-r was even remotely relatable to me.
now i have traveled all over the place (and to other countries) and i have sat amongst rich and poor jws, suburbanites and urbanites, siddity folks and straight 'hood'.....and not 1 assembly experience made me sit up in my seat and say "wow - that's just like me!".
I never understood them either! I never once was choosen to stand up there and that was cool with me because everyone up there I that I knew were either BSing or really really weird anyways. I injoyed my life not being a pioneer or anything... I loved going on vacations, going to amusement parks, making sucess with things I felt I was good at... not following along with the weirdos like my grandparents/family wanted or the Brothers and Sisters at the Hall wanted.
the following are questions that i've heard jw's ask, normaly they ask nobody in particualr, which is just as well because nobody in particualar ever answers back!....
will we have seasons in the new system?
if so how will we keep warm in winter etc?
Poison Ivy, I hate poison ivy...
i was many times, the final bout was what drove me out of the borg altogether..... .
Heck ya! I mean duh being a JW is boring and there is nothing better for them to do then to gossip. My grandma and her good friend had a problem with that... many pineers sitting in the car out inservice gossip tons. It's so anoying! And has caused alot of problems in the halls.
