  Giving to Charities

  by Kristina1972 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i notice the jw's don't really donate to charities.

  when i donated to the earthquake in haiti, my husband didn't really say anything about it.

  silence usually means he doesn't agree with something because of his religious beliefs.

  SAD

  by Cthulhu in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm sure we are all aware of the condition known as sad (seasonal affected depression).

  generally, for those who aren't familiar with it, this means that due, largely in part, to the lack of sunlight during the winter months, people experience feelings of depression.

  however, i am curious as to whether you may have observed something similar, but rather opposite, and i would appreciate your input.

  Your worst field service experience.

  by littlebird in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  my worst field service experience was this.. i didn't have a car at the time and so a pioneer sister was picking me up of service every couple of days.

  she was my partner and i got a door where the woman was clearly not interested.

  as i am stepping away the pioneer sister starts in with all the objection stoppers.

  Mill Hill Disfellowshippings

  by BorgHater in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a few months ago there was a thread about a couple of elders at the mill hill bethel being disfellowshipped because they disagreed with some wt doctrine (i can't recall exactly what it was) and that several other betheliteswere under 'investigation'.

  i haven't heard anything since, does anyone know anything more about this?.

  Learning the "Truth" Is not true is like...................

  by foolsparadise in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after 33 years of being mind controlled at 5 meetings a week, field service meetings, special day assembly, curcuit assembly,district assembly, finding out "the truth" is just a big hoax is like getting punched in the stomach-uppercut in the jaw-being kicked in the balls from behind and then having the rug ripped out from under you and smashing your head on the ground.

  what was it like for everyone else?.
