ok guys thought i would pass this on i think its so funny ..............i was told yesterday that a 8 year old boy at the kingdom hall was playing up as he didnt want to be there, and his mother grabbed hold of him and frog marched him (making a big scene) out of the hall, she flung open the back doors and took him outside a few seconds later he runs back in and shouts at the top of his lungs " oh and by the way a merry christmas to you all" before his mother drags him out again, got to bless the wee soul.

A NEW NAME

by EdenOne in

jw

i wish to communicate that there has been a change in the name that identifies the community that i'm rousing.

it used to be called "christian fraternity of jehovah's people".

from now on it will be called "christian fraternity of god's people".

bigmac

it always amused me hearing the words--"jehovah god"---as if "god" was his surname ! if he is the one true god---why use a name anyway?

"The END is soooooo close"

by Phizzy in

i notice reported in a number of posts that this seems to a bit of a mantra with the dubbies now, more so than ever in the past.. is this because they are getting desperate for the life they live as jw's to change ?

they don't really want to end their days with the constant drudgery of the jw life still going on, they want something different, but must "wait on jehovah".

sigh.. i wonder if this is a small opportunity for us to sow some small, niggling doubt, why not ask, when they spew out the "it is soooo close" nonsense:.

bigmac

my end is sooooo close.

when i was younger it seemed a lot further away--but with advancing years it seems to have shrunk---so it is a lot closer than it used to be.

WT SHUNNING POLICY: What has it done, or could it do to you?

by flipper in

jw
friends

hi y'all, this is mrs. flipper.

please share your experiences with this, or possible consequences of being outed.. this recent controversy and resulting arguments all stem from people being outed - possibly losing friends and family because most jw's will blindly follow the watchtower's rules to shun them.. among people i know and experiences read here, the grief and loss caused by this is terrible, and maybe now is a good time to put up some experiences here, and put the focus on the worst villians of all - wt policymakers..

bigmac

can this thread be made a sticky--or whatever---to keep it on the latest page for newbies to see?

the family destruction caused by shunning is--in my opinion---the single most significant reason to stay well away from this evil cult.

Drinking at meetings / assemblies / conventions ... who's done it?

by HarryMac in

for me .... 1).

last district convention after having 'read up' (took some family to it).. 2).

last 'meeting' to watch step-father-in-law finally get his and get disfellowshipped for molestation.. ...both were taking vodka shots in the bathroom.. i'm sure there's lots of good stories out there..

bigmac

i recall a big assembly at--murrayfield--??--Edinburgh--scotland--in the mid 60's--i was a teenager. several of us lads camping at a recreation ground or some such. we spent very little time at the ass--sembly---mostly long beer sessions for lunch.

there is a main railway track running through a deep cutting in a park in the city-center.---with an iron bridge over it. we all stood there urinating over a train as it came through underneath. happy days. i miss those ass=semblies.
