i was never worthy of pioneer school thankfully - my pioneering stint lasted about 8/9 months....then they kicked me out for not having 100 hr ave and the requisite 7 bible studies at least 4 of which were making progress. ohhh and my skirts were too short.... but i don't think they had pioneer school back then anyway - i'm pretty sure that came later.

The way young woman dress
by free2beme ini have really come to realize, the dress code these days is really really interesting.
young women at wearing their shorts, to the limit of hieght.
sandles are basically high heal shoes, with a strap to make it look like sandles.

they have little tweens trying to look like hookers.....go into any department store and pretend you have a 12 year old to dress and see what you come up with..........i am glad i don't have a kid that age for sure. one reason why i am pro-school uniform. if they're home in the backyard they can wear short shorts, teensy tops and all that - but public - no way. too many weirdos with sick minds out there. protect your little girls and teach them to respect themselves - and teach the sons to respect the girls.

Were You A Sneaky Jehovah's Witness?
by minimus inyou know, the type that looked like a model witness but at home you were not the best example o your family?.
or maybe you accepted from the faithful slave that oral sex was bad, but you did it secretly---same with masturbation.. or perhaps you put in some wonderful hours and placements on that report slip, knowing you might have exaggerated just a bit.. so, were you one who practiced what you preached?.

i don't see where honest self-expression translates into "sneaky". if you are skulking around with bad motives out to do something questionably illegal or criminal, well then sneaky fits.....but a kid being normal is just that. if the kid has to hide his normalcy because he has authority figures who are warped....well that is one sad story.....been there.....

Was G.Bush Jnr, the most wasteful politician in History
by fulltimestudent indoing the us news rounds today was a fascinating harvar uni study on the true cost (yet to be paid) of george bush jnr's military adventures.
particularly, since the story comes as the us admits its been unable to win these wars.
so what is it going to cost you good people who have the misfortune to have had george for a prezzie?

there were plenty of irritating weirdos and downright ignornant types and they were annoying, but easily ignored. its been years now but i do remember the huggers with their "how ARE you" like you are dying of some grave disease when in fact you are perfectly fine. i hate fake hugs. especially if you don't know me from a hole in the ground.

Where to begin?
by DATA-DOG ingood morning everyone,.
i am drinking coffee and thinking about something that kept my tossing and turning all night.
i want to tell my wife, the elders, my friends, that i have been watching a pattern develope within the wtbts for years, and that i love them all but feel that tha wtbts has become a mirror of ancient jerusalem when they strayed.

it seems that the very fact that causing waves causes such angst, sleepless nights and fears, flags should go up that something is very wrong. honesty, accepting responsibility and reality should be fundamental. and those who do not accept that or choose to allow someone else - whether an individual or an entity - make their decisions are simply abdicating their personal responsibility and free moral agency. in some situations it may take strength and guts to stand up for what is right, but in the long run, the ones who are happiest and who embrace freedom will be the ones with inner peace. yes - having family, people you love dearly being locked in a brainless maze is difficult - but you have to do what you have to do sooner or later.

Is the WTBTS Responsible for What Attendees Do After an Assembly?
by PaintedToeNail inthis is in response to jim tx's comment on another thread.
the wtbts claims that the organizers of events such as a congregation picnic or a party are responsible for what the attendees do after the event has ended.
example: if several people meet and engage in 'fornication' afterwards, the organizer is culpable.

this always angered me. why should individual responsibility be absolved once in a group situation - and the group organizer have to assume total responsibility for the group instead? makes little sense.......i prefer to be the master of my own actions whether all alone or with a bunch of people or wherever, whatever. just another idiotic rule to make fence people in and subvert reality.
