See that green car in the intersection? That was me. Totally confused driving in the UK. I'm sure all the lights were red and there I would be in the middle of the intersection. Oh well. It was fun. lol
Simon, lol @ your descriptons!!!
it can be a bit of a shock to the system i guess... ok, ok, so what does this sign mean, then?
(that had joy & steve totally stumped) .
anyway, it's dead easy.

i'm trying to get some comments that active jehovah's witnesses may have heard after dateline aired back on may 28, 2002.
do you remember any comments made about the dateline program either made from the platform at the kingdom hall, or in private conversations with other jw's?
how were the people who where on dateline viewed in your area, especially at the kingdom hall or by other jws?
wow, interesting, Mulan.
Thanks everyone.
I'm trying to get a concensis of what the prevailing attitude was among JWs when Dateline aired.
Very interesting.

after hearing the pro's and con's about the movie, i went to see it this afternoon.
i know we all have differing views, but i'm interested in knowing what impression it left you.
for me, i went in with a critical eye and i was emotionally detached from the movie.
Off to see it @ 4 pm. Will tell ya later.
i have just finished reading a book called gender outlaw.
in this book the righter has an opion that gender is based on "moden life" rather then the "human form", ie do you look, act, talk and have the package of a male or female in your current state and even life upbringing - or were we born male or female and that is that.. if we look, act and talk and even have the package of the gender that we insist that we are, does that mean we are male or female ( i say that i am a woman, i have the package of a woman, i look like a woman and i talk like a woman, my drives licence and birth certificate say that im a woman) so what am i ???.
the reason that i am asking this is, i had a visit from a elder (that i have never meet before)and he was talking about my transexuality and the reason i was dfs.
MG,
Maybe he views all people as equal and does not discriminate genders> If this is the case then why does the Org put such a high piorety over male and females
it's a male dominated society!

MysteryGirl,
(welcome to the board)
why do you rely on the opinion of non-medical people who barely have a high-school education?
Joy
on a wet afternoon, there's nothing to do but give advice!
many readers of this board (otherwise known as "lurkers") may have been drawn to a position where their doubts have culminated in a desire to leave the "false truth" of the wts.. are you one of those?
downunder we have some (many?
Amen, Brother Ozzie.
And what do scared, "loyal" JW's want to think? They want to believe the lies. It makes it easier to hate the ones who left woke up.
Hugs,
Joy

German JW,
I don't understand what you mean by this.
