  Jehovah's Witnesses came by today.

  2. experiences

  this morning i was in our front yard sitting down pulling weeds when i saw 3 people slowly walking on the sidewalk in my direction.

  2 of them were young, handsome, clean shaven, wearing nice crisp white shirts and perfectly tailored black slacks.

  they could have been mormons except.... there was a 60ish portly woman wearing a frumpy dress and ugly sandals.

  Dan & Angela Clark had a video a year or so ago.

  He was relating ""you weren't meant to 'wake-up' ""

  Angela said something like ""congratulations for waking up"".

  Jws are programmed to NOT ''wake up"".

  Would you be able to survive a three day Assembly?

  the last assembly i attended was over 10 years ago.

  the monotone speakers, boring talks, uncomfortable seats, long prayers and nodding off after the lunch break did me in.

  i survived the morning sessions, but the afternoon sessions were brutal.

  The KW gossip validates them. The gossip validates them when they see how others are failing & falling short.

  Some JWs are just bound to never wake up.

  Sometimes I wonder if its just a complete fluke,, that some JWs actually do come to & wake up.

  Syd;

  That sounds dreadful.

  A kid sitting through multi convention days then driving for hundreds of miles after across state lines.

  Its easier to dodge out of the assembly these days because its usually just governing body praise.

  i went to a christening at a church today, a black church.

  it was an incredible experience!!

  women were an active part of the service, and the people were very welcoming.

  SouthCentral;

  I think its just part of the brainwashing & the isolation strategy the Borg uses.

  Did your witness family have a 'Thanksgiving' that wasn't on Thanksgiving?

  by SydBarrett in

  my family had several elders, ministerial servants, auxillary pioneers etc, so it certainly wasn't one of those 'barely in' families.

  but in certain small ways, i think mine were slightly less hard line than some other families i've heard stories about over the years.

  one example was the 'fall dinner'.
