  i thought this might be worth running again as there are new ones on here that may not have ever known about this.this movie was shown once a year at our hall during the 60's and into the 70's as well.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzfu_vcwqso.

  Who's old enough to remember Queen for a Day?

  when i was a kid back in the late 50's / early 60's (yes, i am very old, now let's move on) there was a television program that capitalised on the lives of miserable women.

  it was my mom's favourie.

  each day monday to friday there would be four women on the show, each with a sad story to tell.

  I slept in my car and counted time while I was pioneering

  me and another friend of mine would leave the field service group and go to a store parking lot and sleep counting our time.

  good times.

  we'd also go see rated r movies instead of going door to door, all the while counting time.

  Doubtful's Review of Special Day Assembly

  by doubtful in

  i hate assemblies.

  i can't stand the contrived, rehearsed, robotic sound of the interviews and experiences.

  i can't stand the repeated references to the fds, and i especially can't stand the college education bashing that seems to be thrown in there in just about every other talk.. here's my assesment of the assembly:.

  Has anyone left still believing it was the truth?

  by FollowedMyHeart in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it seems that most xjws have left because at one point in their jw life something happened that made them start to think something wasn't right with the religion.

  when i left, i still believed the jws had "the truth".

  i was dying inside, trapped and unhappy (another poster's words, but describes exactly how i felt).

  No, I am forever convinced that the truth is beyond the reach of religion as a whole. Only science is allowed to have crumbs of the truth at dinner. So the JW religious crap is anything, but not the truth.

  After you got reinstated from the congregation, did the love bombing start right away and how long did it last?

  I don't have that kind of experience, but from what I heard...the love bombing will never be the same once you were DF. You will be considered "spiritually weak", an outcast at least until the day when you become an elder or MS. We had some brothers in Romania in my zone who commited fornication and then got reinstated and in less than 5 years were appointed elders. I think the Society likes having hounders who had dirt in their bellybuttons: they are so easily convinced into voting any crap from the aforementioned Society.

  The classic features of a JW wedding are:

  by highdose in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  firstly a wedding/sales talk that mostly features heavily on how the woman should behave (hint, doormat) and lightly brushes over the fact of the husbands bevhaviour ( oh yeah he should treat her well).

  the reception normaly at some crummy comunity hall with yellowed ceilings and chucks of damp plaster falling off the walls.

  the seats normaly arranged facing eachother all around the edge, so that theres a huge unused space in the middle and everyone is climbing over everyone elses legs to get to their chair.. a big spread donated by everyone, normaly an ode to food poisoning.

  I only went to 2 JW weddings, but they were ok. Reasonable food, reasonable drinks, reasonable dancing, reasonably fun. Nothing excessive, but also nothing embarassing. Yet, I have to agree: all of them had the boring talk where the bride is taught how to be a nice doormat.
