  Why do they even talk about marriage and sex in front of young children?

  just skimming the latest study wt that has been posted and what did i see...?.

  i wonder what the message is that they want the flock to take from this picture?.

  there is also an article about training younger men to take over responsibilities.

  What stands out as being the most offensive from this photo is the nationality of the guys in the photo. Why on earth would they differentiate different nationalities of the guys in the slimmer pants?

  My personal preference for dress is the guy second from the left but his hairstyle is pretty awful and shows a lack of interest in looking smart, there's nothing at all about it that emphasis being well groomed.

  Certainly the guy on the far left is dressed modestly but what a horror story. The colour of his suit is very outdated and imo, yucky. It is so baggy as to give an overall impression of being untidy, there are creases showing from top to bottom.

  How to Irritate JWs: The Catholic Way

  by Hernandez in

  2. humour

  what's the greatest advantage in becoming a roman catholic after leaving the jehovah's witnesses some 17 years ago?

  why, it's the way it totally irritates people and really pushes their buttons...that is, if you are one of the unfortunate jehovah's witnesses who happens across my door during field service.

  i have developed several techniques to make it very frustrating to the unwary witness who hopes to make headway at my house.

  The opening post is funny and has the added benefit of working on both JWs and Catholics😉.

  The JWs would have a very hard time adapting due to coffee breaks being ruled out.

  i've always had the impression that they frowned upon it, but never quite knew for sure.....

  Many charities provide their financials so that individuals can make informed decisions on whether to donate but the organisation provides nothing.

  The JW religion is a very captivating cult and it's sad to see some get sucked in too far.

  Enjoy what you can from her letters.

  what a horror.

  instead of there being "more fish in the sea" our marriage mates came from the small and crapy witness pond.

  anyone got burned by going with mr or mrs you will have to do?

  Fortunately the Brother I was involved with made it clear what he expected from a good and dutiful wife so I was able to break it off before taking the big plunge. He didn't find another victim for 10 years after that.

  It would have been much cheaper if they had just asked the Mormons for permission to use their version.

  They've got a lot of work to do between now and 2017 with their chosen text being Ps. 37:3. Will they start trusting in the Lord and do what is good?

  If so, we can expect many apologies, changes in doctrines, procedures and see the money they have been accumulating put to worthwhile causes and rehabilitation.

  Counting time

  by Emma in

  i may not have put this in the correct spot, but i do think it's scandalous the way time gets counted now.

  i've seen a cart at the edge of our farmer's market, never anyone close enough to talk.

  yesterday was a drizzly day and there were two carts set up, covered in plastic, "witnessing" on their own.

  If it was a job it couldn't be considered a busy job, it could only be viewed as laid back.
