Bad memories
by JW72 inhi everyone, i don't wanna dwell on bad memories, but i just wanna share one of my worst memories from school.. my brother was in the year above me, we had just finished lunch, everyone knew that we were jw's (not going to assemblies, nativity plays,birthday parties, seen in the field service....) we both walked onto the school field together to the whole school already on the field, stood in a line, clapping and shouting "jehovahs witness!!
" at us, it was absolutely dreadful.. kids can be cruel............ anyone else wanna divulge??.
love .

FORCED TO BE GOOD??!!?!?
by JW72 ini was just thinking that the 'goodness' jw's display doesn't necessarily have to be 'pure' goodness, if u know what i mean.. i mean they become so obsessed and dependant on the wts telling them what they can, can't, should, shouldn't, will, and wont do that they no longer make 'pure' judgements for themselves.
even if what the wts is 'good, christian advice', as long as they're not deciding to do it themselves, it loses the righteousness that making decisions, good and bad, is all about.. it's like having really domineering parents who tell u exactly what to do, u do it through fear, not through the will to do good, u don't learn, u only learn to obey.. any comments?.
merry sundays.

Wassup wi' Brooklyn??
by JW72 inyo pagans!!.
what's the general concensus on whether the governing body really think they that they are 'prophets' or whatever they call themselves.. do we think that they really believe they are, or do we think that they know they are not but 'pretend' that they are??.
i've worded it badly, but, i think u know what i'm gettin' at!!.

Urban Legends!
by ISP inits amazing the extent these circulate in the wt world.
i am not so sure, but it develops a powerful folklore amongst jws....often with a moral at the end!
typically these circulate as experiences given in talks and are then adopted by the masses as truth.. for example, anyone hear the ul about the married couple where the wife had to have a routine blood check.
