  Can longtime posters on JWN be elitist? Kind of like elders in the hall?

  just wondering.

  i feel a little smugness from long time posters.

  i got out as a kid 20 years ago and since i am a newbie here it feels like we are shown a little less respect.

  Survey: Who here is an atheist? Who here still believes in God?

  by Christ Alone in

  2. friends

  i just wanted to take a survey.

  let's not let this get into the same old same old debate of atheism vs belief.

  just respond with "atheist" or "believer" or "maybe god exists".

  well, it's sunday morning and i'm sitting here posting on this board when i hear 2 car doors slam.

  i peek out the window and see 2 elders walking up to the door.

  since i'm still in my jammies, i told my husband to go get the door while i snuck into the bedroom.

  Latest Watchtower about Education ??

  by ShirleyW in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  saw a sis.

  in the subway station holding a washtowel which had a title dealing with education, can't remember the exact wording now.

  she was actively pursuing everyone as they swiped their metrocard, so as she thrust the mag towards me i said "oh, it's about education, does it say anything about college"?
