"I won't watch HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER" because Neil Patrick Harris is gay"
by OnTheWayOut inthat's what my jw mother said.
folks, there are plenty of reasons not to watch how i met your mother, but a gay actor playing a straight part is not one of them.
i should give her a list of known gay actors and ruin a bunch of movies and t.v.

The antidote to the myth that JWs are declining
by slimboyfat inone of the most persistent myths on this website is that jws are already in decline, the rot has set in, and the descent of the watchtower is inevitable from here on in.
unfortunately the facts do not bear this out.
jws are still increasing even in most developing countries, and they are still growing worldwide at a faster rate than the general population.

Maybe it is not a myth that JW's are declining ...maybe they are declining not in numbers but in quality?
edited to add that by quality I am reffering to things that make a great JW (field service, shunning, following directions etc)

So, Whats the real reason JWs are no concessions open at the DC and are discouraged from supporting nearby vendors?
by BU2B inso ever since they discontinues the food service at the assemblies and dcs, jws have been "lovingly encouraged" to pack a light lunch to eat.
the secretary at the hall that i am held hostage in said during the service meeting that even a sub would be too heavy to eat, and that a light salad was the best option.
what do you fine people think is the real reason why, in the absence of food service, jws are told to not leave the building at lunch?

i know here the vendors - who pay big bucks to rent their stalls were getting mad that the dubs were carrying bought food - even starbucks and Mickyd coffee cups into the venue and rightly so. Why couldnt they be open and running if the JW's were just going to go and bring the take out food in? so they clamped down big time here - 0 all of the travlers who have no choice because we are staying at hotels had to "repackage" our bought food. That right we had to take subway wrapers off our sandwhiches and re wrap them in saran wrap -yup true and super dubber crazy

I think I've planted a seed!
by OneDayillBeFree ini could be wrong, but i can't help but be a bit optimistic.last night my parents and i had our "family worship night".
i hate it, and i believe my mother does too.
my dad only does it because he's an elder but last night even he was acting like he didnt want to do it.

My Final Goodbye
by Lady Lee ini want to start by saying i will not participate in discussion here about my resignation as a moderator at jwn.. simon please consider this as my resignation from that position.. i have been posting on this board for almost 12 years.
i know some of you a lot, others a little and some not very well at all.
i have remained here for those of you who have needed support as you make the transition out of the wts, who needed someone to listen to your experiences of abuse at the hands of jehovah's witnesses, and to both laugh and cry with you as you progress out of the watchtower society.. we know that we have all experienced the cruelty of abuse of one kind or another.

Wow a dear john letter posted to the boards - nothing to simon first? Lady Lee i hadnt realized it was a good bye this is my last post thread - I thought this was "I am done moderating and ty for our time together thread" Is JWN now being shunned? I was coming on here to wish you well in your journey I dont post much but i do enjoy all you works and reading your words on Freeminds was how i first "met" you, but i feel this is a slap in the face to your "home" for many years - people speak there minds here and are either proven right or wrong as a mode you know this - I really cant believe this. Wow this is sad, I hope you come to post and enjoy some of the threads with us some day

BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME.....let's rebuild!
by Terry inokay we've all beat our chest, lamented and throttled the dead horse of aawa.. time to move on!.
i suggest those of us on j-w.n who care about creating something the right way take the trouble to get the framework going.. let's do the grunt work and get the nattering, debates, naming and organizing already pre-approved so that "others" who have the talent, ability, motivation and resources can move in and turn the key!.
because it was not done before.. there is more wisdom on this discussion board in our vast numbers than there could possibly be in a virtual boardroom with 8 people brain-storming.. that isn't an insult--it is just a statistical fact!.
