  just a note for all those who have not been to a circuit assembly latley.

  i went with the wife to keep peace in the family and thought those on the board would like to see the program.

  of interest was the last talk "pay constant attention to divine instruction".

  My Parents just had their Circus Assembly and told me not to bother sending them anymore emails because they would be closing their account with AOL.

  But in a happy little twist my parents are moving so my Dad has a bunch of bound volumes (as far back as the 50's) and he had my Hubby help him bring them down to the trash!!! He said he doesn't need them anymore, he can get them on CD.

  But it was still fun to watch!

  How many people do you *truly* hate?

  by Nosferatu in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i can honestly say that there aren't many that i truly hate.

  however, there is a small list.

  it used to contain only two people, but a third is making it's way on that list.

  My list is very long. But every year I'm away it gets a little shorter. If I really get thinking about some of them I get pretty pissed. So I'm just better off letting it go.

  I just had a talk with my JW parents. I decided to focus on the only thing I know to be true, that Jesus sacrificed his life for me. I don't know what I believe on the issues of Hell, Armageddon,or the new system. I don't know alot, but the one piece I do know is greater they any double talk they can come up with.

  That was three weeks ago.....haven't heard from them since

  Juicy JW Stories too big to hush up!

  by target in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when their actions spill outside of the congregation and get in the newspapers, there is no hushing it up.

  the stories i am about to tell are factual, but the names have been changed to protect the guilty.. many years ago in a small neighboring town, there was a small mexican restaurant that was owned by a non jw who employed jw relatives and nonrelatives.

  it was a popular place.

  So many stories to tell.

  There was the cheating Elder, ran around on this witch of a wife. She was a mean lady.

  We had a pioneer brother who lived with my best friends family.(The Dad was an Elder ,Mom was a reg. Pioneer, my best friend was only 15) It was revealed that this cute pioneer brother was sneaking in her room at night.So they kicked him out. A few days later it came out that he was playing around with another young sister. So to after his J.C he killed himself. Nobody was allowed to talk about it.

  My best friend was getting married, I was the maid of honor. One problem...I was pregnant! My Elder Dad was not to happy. So I was kicked out of the wedding and she had to beg the Elders to allow me to attend. After all she was marrying an Elder. They agreed. It was nice...didn't last long though. She ran off with a co-worker (nonJW) after 7 years. She got D'F. But we don't speak anymore...I'm bad association.

  Doodle-v,

  I am so sorry for your loss. I also lost a brother in 1986. It was devastating. I'm sorry that we share that kind of pain. Something good did come out of that nightmare. It was the same day I realized that I was living a lie. I'm glad you have a loving husband to stand by you and support you. Hang in there.
