  Kids doing the dirty work...

  by MrFreeze in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  a lot of times i noticed that jw's would have their little ones hold the magazines while out at the door.

  i guess they figured it would make the householder more likely to take the trash.. well my parents tried to pull the same thing on me.

  only with the memorial.

  My parents used to try to get me to talk to my older DFed brother when they couldn't get through to him.

  i never could, like some others described, i could never ever see myself there, i just couldnt imagine it at all,.

  i wonder if that was a sign that deep down i didnt believe it?.

  I never really could. Like aSphereisnotaCircle said, I never really could get past the "pet lion" part. I think it's because I knew it was just too ridiculous.

  This happens frequently to me. Don't worry about it, and don't reply. The emails are sent in mass, not just to you, and he could have got your email address from anywhere.

  2. beliefs

  if you ever felt that you really did love god, but no matter what you did, ended up on the outs with your family and with the watchtower anyway..... these words have comforted me.. .

  66. thus saith the lord, the heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me?

  and where is the place of my rest?

  Wow, I didn't realize what strong feelings I have when hearing (reading) the word "unbeliever". I think that's the first time since stepping out of a KH 2+ years ago, and it literally made me gag and shudder.

  Protests of January 21, 22

  by Cthulhu in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  some, if not most, of you are aware, i am sure, that a two day peaceful protest aimed at the discrimination techniques of the watchtower society are being planned internationally for january 21 and 22. letter writing has been suggested as a supplement to signs and marchers.

  this seems a useful opportunity for those on this board who still have access to their congregation directory to send letters anonymously to those within their own hall.

  information about these two days of "special activity" as well as sample letters can be found at http://christianwitnesses.com/id346.html..

  What makes the GB better than the average JW???

  by shadowolf in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  at a past convention i went to a bethel meeting during the lunch break.

  it was geared towards young people who wanted to dedicate themselves to bethel service...yuck.

  anyway, as the boring program went on, an older brother spoke of how, if you went to bethel, you would be living with the gb.

  I always hated the "celebrity" status, too. I can remember at conventions, looong lines of people waiting just to be able to say hello to certain people. They might as well have just gone all out and asked for an autograph.

  Nation wide protest on the shunning policies of The Watchtower Organization!

  by koolaid-man in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  on jan 21 and 22, 2011 a nation wide protest is being organized to alert people on the discrimination that is blatantly taking place in the watchtower organization.

  the public needs to know about the disfellowshipping and subsequent shunning that is going on in the jehovah's witness cult.

  this flagrantly heinous,wicked practice must be stopped.

  I think protests bring attention, but entirely the wrong kind. A campaign to get actual, real information into people's hands about the WTS and their policies would be a much better use of time and resources, imo.

  I Believe The SixScreens Mystery Bethelite

  by Gary1914 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  maybe i'm naive or just plain stupid, but i believe what the mystery bethelite says.

  also, i don't think it's out of the ordinary that mary was concerned about going to the bathroom in the kingdom hall.. remember, the elder at bethel who was arrested because he took pictures of people using the bathroom?

  that was hard to believe but it was absolutely true.

  I agree, there's no way they would be threatening to DF the whole family. That just doesn't make sense.
