yes.. peterborough city center u.k. ''what does the bible really teach'' displayed on it.. a family of 3 i know were sitting on the bench just behind it.
i'm not going to say anything derogatory about them as they are nice folks even if they have to shun me now i bear no malice.. as predicted not a single person was paying any attention as they walked by.
i noticed some other canvassers (non religious), were actively approaching people and handing out leaflets.. on the market i saw the jw charity stall and again not a single soul was interested or even near it.. i'm glad this 'urgent never to be repeated work(tm)' is being vigorously carried out by god's chosen people.
i saw 2 set up yesterday--in the center of the main town here. 1 bro with a straw hat on--it was in the direct sun----and a very attractive sis.
i cant be sure---but i think 1 cart top banner read--" gods view of smoking 2--?
next to them was a busker killing a guitar.
so the watchtower says they don't teach children to shun their df'd parents if they are not living in the home per their custody packet.. so what happens once they turn 18 and are no longer legally bound to court orders for visitation?.
does anyone have any experience with this.
did your child begin shunning you once they turned 18. curious how to disucss this topic with your kid before it gets to that point..
are you kidding ?
all my 3 shunned me from way earlier than 18. their ( born-in dub ) mother had divorced me. i gave up the struggle trying to enforce my access rights. if the mother wont co-operate--the father has NO chance.
divorce + shunning--sure fire success formula for the end of a family as we know it.
well--if you didnt like my 1st piccy of dear bro loesch----your gonna just HATE this

robert j ingersoll on the great voltaire:.
"it has been claimed by the christian critics that voltaire was irreverent; that he examined sacred things without solemnity; that he refused to remove his shoes in the presence of the burning bush; that he smiled at the geology of moses, the astronomical ideas of joshua, and that the biography of jonah filled him with laughter.
they say that these stories, these sacred impossibilities, these inspired falsehoods, should be read and studied with a believing mind in humbleness of spirit; that they should be examined prayerfully, asking god at the same time to give us strength to triumph over the conclusions of our reason.
referring back to kates comment----correct me if i'm wrong--but are there sections on this site that non-members cant access ? if there is--would it be feasible for an admin to move really vitriolic wt bashing threads over to there--to avoid stumbling ( lol ) potential newbees ?
