Much depends on who you are and where you live, and whether you can come up with some medical excuse for not shaving. As a JW, you would always be a bit guarded and distrustful of anyone with facial hair who goes to the KH.

Facial hair breaks the spell that keeps JWs as subserviently immature drones suppressed through hierarchical domination.

Amended to add that this was a very Roman Catholic clerical custom.

Don't give them 2019

i am writing the post i have wanted to write for some time.

it's a heartfelt note to those still attending meetings, still caught between the lines of watchtower and the world.

those with kids or a spouse in the society..... despite being mentally out....those who have weighed up that there is too much to lose in leaving.

Okay, well, your story started really interesting and then it went on and on and I must confess, I didn't read 2/3 of the thing. Your writing style is very much like a stream of consciousness piece.

My suggestion, say what you need to say in fewer words in future posts. Otherwise you run the chance that folks aren't going to invest the time to read everything you thought you'd say for their benefit.

My message to those who have always placed heavy burdens on its members

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

in this kingdom hall photo, there will be some members who will probably leave the organization.

some will stay and suffer just to be with family.

i feel sad for those who stay just to please the family.

Whooooaaaa! Wait a minute, they have windows?
They have windows in that Kingdom Hall??? What?

The guy in the second row center left is definitely thinking about fading!

And the African-American couple in the fourth row center right are definitely exiting soon!

But wow, I cannot get over the fact they even have windows.

Windows! I wish I could have had windows to stare out of all those boring meetings!

Just reflecting on how oblivious I was to WT

by joe134cd in

i’m just sitting by the beach and i was thinking at just how oblivious i was to the religion that i followed.

i have mentioned this in past posts and am using this experience as an example not so much to demonstrate what happened but more of my reaction to it:.

there was a kh in my local area that 5 years previous had internal renovations done it.

It never ceases to amaze me how COs can push WT agenda to maximize profits at the needless expense of impoverished R&F members, knowing full well they are scamming as the saying goes, widows and orphans.

they tread on the lowly, neglect the needy and fatten up the coffers of the filthy lucre loving hypocrits in the GB!
