haven't seen witnesses here for a long time perhaps they have stopped going out too.
I love my weekends and the chance to lie in wouldn't trade it for a Saturday morning trudge for anything.

me - me - me!!!.

is it me or is this kinda sick?
i mean i can understand learning from the account, but this is kinda deviant.
preparing the mind whilst young means that they will see nothing abnormal in this.
As a mum it is truly shocking that this event is seen as appropriate material for a colouring in exercise.
i was just mailed this today -- thought it was funny.
(please forgive me if this is a dupe - i tried to search for similar jokes on this site).. .
oops too much tv time watching those commercials!.
One of the children kept singing the carol "Little Donkey" his mum repeatedly told him not to sing that song any more as it made Jehovah sad. Unfortunately he couldn't help himself and during the meeting started singing the carol again very quietly. As he was being led out of the hall to be reminded more forcefully not to sing the song he was heard to call out "No mum it wasn't the same donkey it was a different donkey".
My daughter also made us very proud during one CO visit the children were asked to dress up as their favourite bible character. We talked about it and she decided to dress up as Queen Esther. At the meeting all went well until the moment when they went onto the platform and the children were asked who they had dressed as. My daughter proudly announced to the whole congregation that she had come as Princess Fiona from Shrek.
here's a few guesses.... the brooklyn waterfront is a convenient place for the society to make their videosgrowing up as a jw when your friends have cellphones and you don't is "kind of rough" and a "kind of sad story"suddenly it's ok for jw youths to "go out" with worldly friends?
?you should listen to what your "peers" say, so long as they're jws on a society video.
anything else is peer pressure.playing by yourself with a frisbee is the preferred sport for young people (no teams or competition involved)young jws don't have a clue how to communicate with the opposite sex via text messages"it's really up to you how you choose to communicate with this wonderful tool that you have"... even though it clearly isn't.the society's video-making department are already running out of ideashttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=se_iuspg_14.
can someone show the guy on the keyboard where the other notes are .
the may 15, 2013 washtowel has a cute little piece of artwork about what an impact they make out in serve-us.
i thought some captions might help make it clearer!.

I wonder how long it will be before witnesses walk the streets with placards again and don't bother to talk to anyone.
just wanna know.
i'm doing the fade but i reckon my big mouth could get me dfd.
i know plenty who've been dfd for fornication/adultery, but never met one dfd for speaking the truth.
I think it is possible I may have been but since I did not attend their JC and didn't speak to them or read their mail I do not know for sure. I don't need a bunch of idiots to define what or who I am, after all I am awesome.
hey i have come to love some of the discussions on here and the information.
i am currently awake and have no plans to fade, in my case i am patient enough to in time become an elder to at least help the younger friends here in my area, in the sense of helping them wake up/if elder have their back..
Welcome. I would say if you plan to fade then taking on any position of oversight will make this harder. Even if you are well intentioned you will have very little influence in a body of elders. I would suggest that you are better focusing on your family and yourself initially and get out with minimal emotional pain and trauma.
the bible teaches that jesus is the one mediator between god and all mankind [anthropon], but the organization teaches us that jesus christ, is not the mediator between jehovah god and all mankind.
(the watchtower, 9/15/1993, p.22) the bible teaches that salvation is through jesus not an earthly organization under heaven.
the organization matches jesus description.
Good questions. Mst witnesses do not realise that Jeasus is not their mediator they do not keep pace with the changes themselves.
yesterday, a jwn poster e-mailed me asking if i would post on this discussion board his recent email to steven unthank and also post stevens reply.
the reason for the request is because the poster has need to remain completely anonymous.
i agreed to share the email because i knew you would find stevens reply informative and interesting.. .
What a waste of the societies resources to pursue this vendetta against those that stand up to them. I am so sorry for what Steven Unthank and his family has had to endure and I am horrified by the petty minded approach of a religion that claims to speak for God. I think that they have reached the point when they can no longer disgust me and then I read a post such as this one and I realise that they still have the capacity to shame themselves further. I sincerely hope that thet pay financially for every one of these acts of petty revenge.
