when i was a single jw, well, lets say around about my early 20ies, i used to to let my mind flow a bit during the kh meetings.. welll, anyway, i used to observe some of the "older" sisters around their late 30ies or 40ies in their stockings and high heels.
it really turned me on, i must admit.
i couldn t concentrate much of the programme due to this.
i think you need to get laid.
i found it hard to pay attention at one hall i went to except it was the 20something sisters who had my mind wandering.i loved summer, some of them wore tight dresses and low tops i was an attendant in the back and there was always someone strutting around. i miss that hall
i went to a sunday meeting recently (for family reasons).
it was the first meeting i'd attended in a few years.
i couldn't help but notice how utterly soulless it was.
college, money, internet, worldly people, sex, music, recreation,sports,blood transfusions, critical thinking are all evil.
listen to the faithfull slave or die. work harder in field service, do more, study more, give more you worthless drone.
No way man, the meetings are upbuilding, what are you talking about?
i don't believe that there is such a thing as a perfect, or an ideal situation.
ideal is the more appropriate word to use, because the word itself denotes a conception, a remote possibility, not a reality.
i'm asking you, in your lifetime, have you ever found complete fulfillment, or felt complete within yourself, and your accomplishments?
if i could get my wife out of this cult i truly believe my life would feel complete. our marriage is strong and we have amazing children and i have a good carrer, but the thought that she may decide someday i am a spiritual danger is keeping me from feeling complete. nothing is certain in this world, except death. i really hate this cult
they caught up with me at the meeting today which was the first one i have been to an a couple months.
i also missed the co's visit and the circuit assembly and havent been out in fs in 8 months or more.
i only went today for my wifes benefit i personally have a hard time listening to thier one sided warped view of the world.
nugget: i agree, in the end they are on a mission to figure out my mindset and then thier control strategy.
lil imp: i just want them to get lost and stop intruding in my life. do you think by buying time they will eventually give up?
ten years: good advice i will attempt to use.
publishing cult: doesn't ingesting visene give you diarrea? if i have them over i will be on my best behavior and do not want them exploding in my bathroom. funny thought though.
im new to this forum, most topics up for discussion are usa centric, and thus for us euro,s are boring, like whats on your tv chanels, wtf, who cares what your watching on tv,i dont come here to listen to that, either promote something intresting, or shut the hell up .
are you french? just a guess

anyway, one elder asked if he could stop by with another elder for a visit. i haven't been caught in any unholy speech or deeds so its just a sheparding call but i told him i would let him know if im up to it. the thing is i suggested to my wife that we should refuse the offer because i may just let them know how i feel. i am not afraid of them or anything they may do in fact being disfellowshipped would not bother me at all but it would devastate my wife. to my surprise she is encouraging the visit. i am pretty sure she realizes i cannot be encouraged to return to the way things were before i became selfaware so i am unsure of her motives. i understand the elders attempts to find out my weakness and correct it and i have no problems with anyone at the hall but i am heading out of the "truth" and my family knows it so why the push to meet with them? i am the kind of person who stands up for myself pretty quick and any questioning that seems to belittle or berate will be not be tolerated in my home so i can see the potential for a heavy meeting.
so what do you think, should i let them stop by?
i love vegas, were there in august. my jw wife and i gambled, drank too much and went to a topless act at the stratosphere called BITE (really good show). she said it was the best time she has had in years, good luck to you, win big.

unless your an england cricket supporter!.
WHAT IS THE ALTERNATIVE?
funny, i have family that sound pretty much the same, actually its not funny.
we've all known those fanatical witnesses who are guilty of pdf (public display of faith) and always have to make a big song and dance to the whole world and let everyone and their dog know they're a faithful witness of jay hoover!.
1) when my mother first came in 'da troooof' this wacky, over zealous 'sister' was studying with her - you know the type.
this woman was one of those not so subtle individuals who would always talk loud in conversation and say the name jehovah a million times even when the conversation could have been about basketball.
i was a new publisher ,age 19 working a very upscale area in newport ri and was standing at the door with a older pioneer sister and im up. the guy answers and after i blurted out my lame serman he declines but we talk a bit and he tells me hes a lawyer and dosent really believe in organized religion, blah , blah. so i start putting the book away and start wrapping it up, well the sister nxt to me was not ready to give up and tells me out loud to give him the book. he says " i dont want the book". she repeats herself to me a little louder "give him the book!" i look at her and state "he doesnt want it" "yes he does" she says "no i dont" the guy exclaims. so i looked at her and handed her the book and said " you give it to him" and walked back to the car.
