  okay, i am in a bit of a dilemma.

  since i believe in honesty between marriage mates, i have been telling my wife about this board and my participation on it.

  i feel it is only right so that she won't feel like i have anything to hide.

  JW members and 401Ks...

  i just would like to open a little debate here on retirement and jws.

  my mother, who is the breadwinner of the family, (dad's quite pathetic) is socking away money like mad for retirement.

  i can't blame her, since i know she'll need it, but she's convinced that the end is so near.

  2007- Witness Meetings= Why can't women wear pants/trousers??

  by Witness 007 in

  when my mum went to her first meeting she was dressed to perfection, she wore nice ladies dress trouser/pants.

  the witness stuying with her told her it was "not apropriate" to wear this to the meeting...in 2006 i was in a congregation where a sister would put a skirt on over her pants she wore to work.

  it looked weird, but the pants ban still is in force 2007.

  What do people do in a discussion that ticks you off?

  by Terry in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we all enjoy an interesting discussion.

  but, sooner or later it seem inevitable that somebody comes along and throws a monekywrench into the mechanism and the huge engine sputters to a halt.. what do people do in a discussion that ticks you off and stops the flow of conversation and turns it from being productive to unproductive?.

  is it as simple as disagreeing with you?.
