  @ alphaman:

  I helped him with his reservation(s). I mentioned to him that my parents were Jehovahs witnesses. He remembered my name and mentioned me to the 2nd shift front desk person. When he finally saw me working 3rd shift, he and his wife were coming back from the convention. I saw him in the hallway, he says thank you, and gives me a kiss and a hug! I was so shocked, especially since he did this in front of his wife. He said that was his way of saying thanks for helping me with his reservation(s).

  What if Jehovah's Kingdom really became a Kingdom?

  i mean what if a government decided to internally deport its jehovah's witnesses and give them their own independent country.

  "here, since you say we are of satan, we're giving you a few square miles so lets see how much better a job your theocracy does, and this way you can't spread your religion.

  " i'm surprised russia didn't try that.

  That would scare the crap out of me. A nightmare that I would not want to dream about.

  Michael Sam Story on the ESPY'S. He was raised a JW.

  michael sam...the football player who came out as gay, received an award on the espy's sports award show last night.

  they had a video presentation documenting his struggles and it was brought out in the video piece that as a jehovah's witness, he was prohibited from playing in organized team sports...but that he went and defiantly played anyway.

  so, sam not only had to overcome the gay issue but also that of being a witness.

  I believe more younger people are going to rebel against this religion.

  His sister basically raised me growing up. I couldnt believe it. I've never done anything to this elder, always been nothing but nice to him. There was some apostate postings on my facebook page. I think that had something to do with it. My mom posted an apostate video that I did.

  Really starting to become more clear to me that this religion is a cult. I'll be so happy when I leave Wisconsin in 2017.

  There was a convention in Milwaukee from June 20th-22nd. The Witnesses literally took over our hotel! They were more demanding than I remember when I was a kid. They were demanding coffee, walking into the breakfast area when our breakfast area was not opened. I work in a hotel, and the convention was literally 20 mins away from our hotel. The witnesses were trying to get me to go, I was going to go the last day, but I decided not to. Also they were complaining about their bills; a lot of the bills did not have the correct J-dub discounts on them. For one, I am overweight, and going through skin issues at the moment. If anything, I dont like being around crowds of people.

  One of the witnesses who I helped with a reservation(s). He told me he was an elder from Minnesota, and that he knew Larry Graham and Prince (name dropper). He gave me a hug and kissed me in front of his pioneer wife! I was shocked. A witness couple was trying to get my coworker to come to the convention also. I told my coworker STRAIGHT up that its a cult and NOT TO GO!!!! And that it ruined my life!!!!!

  just dont know when i'm gonna be able to do that.. right now, i am working full time, i go to school part time, etc.

  i want to start traveling more, doing more activist work, visiting more apostate friends, and helping to get people out of this 'so called religion.'.

  in other words, i want to start going to un-preach where the need is great.
