When you were a JW did you dance " provocatively" ?

" provocatively" of course meaning alot.

in my cong it meant moving your body in any way at all.. the spirtual ones of the cong of course would not dance and if they did would do a kinda slow motion running type dance.

totaly embassring to look at.. .

Back in the day....my sister tried to teach the JW's the bump ( we learned it from friends on the East side) This was before it became mainstream.

She was studying at the time, and thinking about trying to become a JW. She was born in, but had been running with the world (and me) for two years.

Well, the elders got wind of it and she got a good talking to. She was stumbled again, and gave up again.The version she was showing them was only

a very light tap, hip to hip. They should see her today....bumping, poping, and grinding! She's now fly like a G6

Question for ex-Bethelites or others in the know: GB members & Bible studies

by sir82 in

jw
friends

at a recent circuit event, one of the carefully scripted interviews was with a young lady who had recently moved from nyc.

she has been baptized as a jw for about one year.. she made a point, and the interviewer re-emphasized, that her bible study had been conducted by geoffrey jackson (gb member) and later by mark noumair (gilead instructor).. it seems the primary reason for the interview was name-dropping, with perhaps the idea that even "prominent bethelites" conduct bible studies "just like we are supposed to".

the young lady rambled on about being "grateful for their patience" or some such.

Lost my entire coin, stamp and paper money collection!! surprising story.

by finallyfree! in

so in the hustle and shuffle of moving i must have left my entire collection literally in the appartment parking lot.

just to give you an idea of what was in there i had about a dozen america and canadian silver dollars, a couple gold coins, a bunch of ancient coins from the 1600s, old canadian paper money and us money and a bunch of coins, stamps, paper currency ive been collecting since i was a kid.. all in all my stuff was worth in the 5-7 thousand dollar range.

believe it or not a young guy in his mid twenties from the appartments across the st came over and asked me if i lost anything and what my name was.

scary21

Left my purse in the shopping cart, and drove away. it was turned into the store with all my money and credit cards. The crazy thing is, I did the exact same thing two weeks later at Wal-Mart. It too, was turned in with nothing missing . I told you I was a airhead! LOL Damn those worldly people! Things like that should not be happening is this old system.

Do You Think It Is Wrong To Stereotype?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i know we are supposed to be politically correct but i don't always feel that this is warranted.. i do think that certain things might be generally true and could be viewed as stereotyping.

for example, if i see a young person driving a car very slowly, i might think that they are texting and driving (or else are asian).

now that might not have sounded proper, but i do think it's generally true, from my experience driving in the city.. if i see a "butchy" looking woman, i generally assume the woman is gay.

I do it all the time.........I'm an airhead blonde.

What do you really know about "Millions Now Living Will Never Die"?

by Terry in

pay attention to what you are told and how you are told it.. what is the actual message being communicated?

what is the intention behind it?.

this 128-page book millions now living will never die, was placed with the people on a contribution of 25c a copy.. .

scary21

Terry, love your idea. Made me LOL Would JW ever do such a thing.......turn from a cult to christian .....The only chance of that happening is gone...... It may have been possible in Ray's day, if a few more GB members were on his side. To bad the wndow closed. I think forever!!!!!
