We taking bets on how heated this thread is gonna be? Every couple months this kind of thread appears, and it always fascinates me how heated it becomes.

Child beating
by Quillsky insome posters here still attend jehovah's witness meetings.
my challenge to you is..... next time you see a parent beating a human child in public at the kingdom hall, when there are two witnesses - you and one other - call 911 or the police, and report the parent by name, for child abuse..

Some of these kids need their rear kicked. It might prevent them from breaking in your house when they reach teenage years.

What silly things have you been counselled on or simply been told off for?
by 3Mozzies inso what silly things have you been counselled on or simply been told off for?.
back in my early 20's, i had a pair of comfy old jeans that started to tear in about 3 places on the leg.
it was the fashion at the time so not only did they feel great to wear, they also looked 'in', not that i cared for that, but it was a bonus .

When I was younger as a Ministerial Servant, the Elders and my dad jumped on me for wearing a sports coat on a Sunday meeting during which I was the chairman.
I got counseled on violent video games. I had games like Doom and Duke Nukem. Plus your Street Fighters and Mortal Kombats.
When I still lived at home, an Elder called the house looking for my dad. I picked it up, and we spoke briefly. He asked what I was doing. I told him I was watching wrestling. Not real wrestling, but WWF, Vince McMahon, etc.. He told me that was violent and we shouldn't watch that kind of entertainment.
Mom always went through my music collection and tossed all that she deemed inappropriate. Zoiks, funny you mentioned The Cure. I had and still believe I have their Pornography CD. Mom never bothered with that because she was so intent on finding my rap collection that she didn't realize in an effort to get away from listening to rap I branched out to other kinds of music. If she would have seen the title of that CD I'm sure she would have tossed it. Great dark album by the way.
Nowadays my dad still respectively counsels me about watching boxing and MMA. He recognizes me being my own man, plus he likes boxing too although he's better than me at turning it off. I love boxing, I always have, and I would have liked to have tried my hand at it. I know its wrong, and I have to force myself not to watch it. Even now when I work out, I incorporate shadow boxing in my routines.
Funny you guys mentioned the colored dress shirts. Depending on the CO and DO and their peculiarities they might give the thumbs up on colored shirts, or thumbs down requiring you to wear white shirts. I love my colored shirts. Kenneth Cole, Geoffrey Beene, Nautica, etc.. Those shirts look good when paired with the right suits.

Why are alot of witnesses very interested in watching Sports but they are against playing organized sports?

I don't regret missing out on playing sports in school. Any temporary satisfaction I would have gotten by playing sports would pale in comparison to the joy I've experienced in spiritual pursuits. The time I spent on quick builds and auxilliary pioneering were priceless moments in my life. Not to mention the friends were better association for me than spending unneccesary time being unevenly yoked with unbelievers. I have fond memories of Christian gatherings when we played Bible Bingo and Bible Costume Parties. In the near future I look forward to playing with animals. To miss out on playing with animals in the future because I wasted my time with organized sports would be tragic indeed.

remember reading about African jws doing that and they sing without music and sound great.
I remember them dropping the 4 stanzas (soprano, alto, tenor, bass lines). Several in congregations I attended there were jws that sang the alto or tenor line and it was very beautiful...they're dead now.
LOL, that came off so morbid.

After Prince's Viking song last year we might want to cross him out. I've noticed the general consensus is the new songs.........suck. It's another one of those elephants in the room too that nobody wishes to address. They all just kinda of sing half heartedly, but we all know what each other is thinking. You don't have to be a embittered apostate to recognize the music has taken a step backwards.

For those still in- why do you (really) stay, and what would it take for you to leave the org?
by serenitynow! infor the so-called conscious class, those of you who know it's all a disgusting lie, what is the real reason you stay in?
i find it hard to understand how ones who know what the org truly is would continue to be an active jw.
i'm not talking about the "faders"- those with an actual plan to get out as painlessly as possible.

I got a kick out of that too. He couldn't contain himself.
