Goodbye Jehova

by UnshackleTheChains in

just wondered if there might be an english translation of this book.

just read on jwsurvey how watchtower has brought legal action against the publishing company.. sounds like it has touched a raw nerve at watchtower.

Find Family Happiness ... NOT!

by jp1692 in

the other day my wife and i were in sonoma.

we were just walking around enjoying the pleasant afternoon in the quaint, old downtown area when i saw two jw women standing by their “witnessing cart.” .

normally, i just ignore them whenever i see jws standing by a cart, but i gotta admit it: this time it really bugged me because of the title on the cart: find family happiness.

Well maybe you should have reacted differently. Maybe you should have told them that you are very happy now because you are out of their very weird religion.

$5.5 Million to be transferred to World Wide Work from Assembly Hall fund

by Sour Grapes in

a letter was read tonight in our kingdom hall that the money that the circuits in the indianapolis area had in savings to build a new assembly hall will now be transferred to the www to build kingdom halls in lands where they are needed and a new assembly hall for us will not be built.. we had a beautiful assembly hall near downtown indy that was paid for.

it was sold a couple of years ago.

we were promised a new assembly hall to be built in southern ohio near the indiana border but they can kiss that goodbye now.

Have you ever gone back to a meeting out of curiosity?

by stuckinarut2 in

just wondering if anyone has gone back to a meeting out of curiosity?

(perhaps to an area far from your old khall where you know no one).

with all the changes from 2012 onwards (videos, tv screens, new meeting format, new songs etc) it would be an odd experience to be in attendance!.

Iamallcool

Maybe if they have no songs. Very Unlikely!

A Very Bad Idea! You can try to explain to him and his parents why your parents shouldn’t meet them. Easier said than done! I surely do hope they will understand why.

Barbara Harrison

by Diogenesister in

has anyone read barbara harrison's book "visions of glory" ( 1978), and if so what did you think?.

apparently she is an exjw and feminist author, who used to write for ms magazine, who has a good reputation among scholars.

i'm surprised i haven't heard of her given that she seems to be fairly respected as an author and political commentator.. anyone have anything they can tell me about her please?.
