If you did hit the big lotto,,, you'd be rich & wouldn't matter.
Worst case scenario get df'd & make your way back to the Borg in 6 mos to a year or so,,,if you want to.
The Borg would likely want you back because you're loaded $$$$$

A lot of JWS have to be strategic in order to do a few minor '''sins"" like leaving no evidence,,,throwing away lotto tix after playing.
Hiding R rated moviies and not talking about going to clubs and what not....you know ""say little say well"" on a who knows who cares basis. 🙂

What would happen to a JW for celebrating Christmas?
by Vanderhoven7 inmark jones writes:.
if they were spied upon and it was reported to the elders they’d be “invited” to a judicial committee whereupon they’d be cross examined in a locked backroom by three men acting as judge and jury to decide if they are guilty.. .
if the elders decide that they are guilty, they’ll then decide if the person is sorry.

Nothing like the 2 witnesses rule..
Something they exploit to catch you in a trivial sin.
And something they exploit to protect pedophiles.
Go figure

Did your witness family have a 'Thanksgiving' that wasn't on Thanksgiving?
by SydBarrett inmy 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'.

JWs vs Jonestown.
The witnesses I do believe are just a hop,skip and a jump from a Jonestown event.
I do believe that the JWs mindset is there. They will do what it takes to get to the new world.
Thats,, where it's dangerous!!!

Usually in Dubbiland,,, if 2 witnesses are privvy to the event thats all the eldubs need to proceed with discipline.
You know,,,,,that two witnesses rule. How they use it to evade reporting stuff or 2 or more they can use it to punish you.

Would you be able to survive a three day Assembly?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inthe 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 jws come to town with the 10 commandments & a 10 dollar bill & dont break any of them"".

Jehovah's Witnesses came by today.
by 3rdgen inthis 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.

Sometimes the best way to break through a JWs programming is in a calm & diplomatic way..
Lets just say a cup of coffee at the restaurant.
You can show them all the facts. Be as calm & polite as possible.
Being argumentative strengthens their resolve & mindset.
Be calm & polite. Ask them questions and make them think. They will often give contradictory answers. Leave this with them.
This leads to cognitive dissonance. Then....doubt.;)
I know. Its what I experienced. ;))
