Ever notice how JW's can attend a talk or Convention and remember nothing?

by Wasanelder Once in

how many times have you asked a jw who has attended a public talk how the talk was, only to be told it was so great!

yet they cannot remember the title nor any one single point except that the brother was "funny" or was good with illustratiions or some other vauge point?

and conventions weren't far off either.

Kindof like when I went to High School.

i just can't figure out the music this year.

it's like i don't want to leave the easy listening hits of the 70's-80's.

Is it me, or am I getting to become an old man. I just can't figure out the music this year. It's like I don't want to leave the easy listening hits of the 70's-80's. Then the hits became thin.

Why didn't Anthony slam the music of this year. Surely it's gotta be worse than the socks, spanx, meterosexual wear.

Good Morning! I'm visiting you today to share good news!

by Zoos in

jw
friends

the good news is:.

- studying the watchtower over breakfast.

- putting on a suit and tie.

Quarterback

Well, I don't have a Scooter, Zoos.

But I will be getting out of bed, going to a group. After the group arrangement, visiting this poor chap at the hospital who is dying.

After that depressing hour that can't be counted for FS ( but I don't care) I shall get a nice Starbucks, Bold coffee.

Then I will visit some RV's that are not home, again.

I think your good news is much more fun

Enjoy

In Toronto, Canada, people who use the street cars are having sex. Possibly, they are doing it because of the high price of hotel rooms. The news featured a story of this happening just last week. I don't know the details about it. I'm not sure if they were busted for not paying their fare and had to pay with their body's.

JW with cart in front of White House today! It was 32 degrees!

by GrreatTeacher in

jw
friends

well, then, if it was so cold, what was i doing there?

i was on a field trip with a bunch of 8th graders.

i volunteered to chaperone and i was in charge of seven 13 year old boys who demanded to see the white house since the bus dropped us off on the national mall and we had 2 hours to look at the war memorials before we had to be back on the bus.

I surprised that their was only one publisher with two displays. According to the Service Meeting part this week, only should be with one Mobile Display.

Is it really allowed for a JW to listen to radio or look at TV??

by Mr Fool in

if almost every song, every radio host, every actor is influenced by satan it should be forbidden for every jw to listen to radio and look at tv, right?!

or have i missed something?.

Quarterback

Jesus did say. "Tell a vision to nobody."

The LDS did the JW's a favor

by Quarterback in

there was this guy that sat at the back of our kh for about 10 years.

he must of studied with so many desparate pioneers but nothing happened.

he just couldn't break his smoking habit.

Quarterback

When he told the Elders he was baptised as a Mormon, he thought that they would be proud of him, and offer him praise.

There was this guy that sat at the back of our KH for about 10 years. He must of studied with so many desparate pioneers but nothing happened. He just couldn't break his smoking habit. Then. we didn't see him for three months. So, two Elders went to see him and to assess. We found out that the Mormons got him.. He was studied, and in 6 weeks got baptised with them. Man, the LDS are fast movers. But, the guy still smokes. He did give me strange vibes. I'm glad he became mormon. Those feelings may make me blood guilty

Anyone know of df'ing for taking a br. to Court (esp. if Cdn)?

by berrygerry in

most jw's have been told that taking a fellow jw to court is wrong.. the shepherd book uses wts speak: "if an individual ignores god's word on this matter, it may affect his congregation privileges.

" (italics theirs.).

the following are from an interesting case in canada ( link ):.

Quarterback

I remember that the Elders manual did say that you could sue your brother through an Insurance claim. Sueing for another matter such as contract breaching was always a punitive matter. I'm aware of some being swindled out of their life savings. Employees stealing from their JW employers. Tenants violating their leaase arrangements from JW Landlords. All couldn't legally sue one another due to maintaining congregation responsibilities. They were stuck, just like a person who is stuck to stay married to an abuser. But, if they did sue they were not DF'd.
