  brother numtea called round today to drop of the latest cancer filled ragazines, we never know when he's going to turn up.

  i was looking out the front window and spotted him walking up the drive.

  then just before he pressed the door bell he about turned and sprinted back down the road, no mean feat if your an old man and there's snow and ice everywhere !!!

  The Blood muddle

  by leo999 in

  i could do with some help to sort out this fraction muddle .we are inactive and of the conscious class , but trying to help others see the 'light' in whatever ways we can .. a couple of years ago , i asked an elder about the fractions , questioning particularly the 33% hemoglobin allowed in the 06 km insert .

  when i was a wee girl growing up , nothing of any part was allowed and we were fanatical to even write manufacturers and question their ingredients !!.

  i would like to have a list of allowable fractions according to the societies current light , and also what fractions are not allowed .

  current JW tagged in pictures in Xmas and Birthday parties on FB

  by James_Slash in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  had to laugh when i saw this.. a current jw who i know on fb was tagged in photos showing him at a christmas party a few days ago.

  within minutes of them landing he removed the tags because obviously these would have been seen by other jw's on his page.. when i asked him why he'd removed them he said: "i was off work sick and i didn't want my colleagues seeing me on the razzle".

  lol.

  Enjoying the Taste of Freedom ...

  hi guys n girls.... i slipped under the jw radar just one year ago.

  i wasn't happy going to meetings as i always felt worthless and everything i did wasnt good enough.

  well having managed to miss a few meetings, i thought nothing of sneaking a look at apostate websites.

  there was a 'white elephant' gift exchange at my job today.

  i finally got involved, for the first time ever.

  (i couldn't last year because i needed plausible deniability, as i was still a jw on paper at the time.

  Ladies: were you often left to deal with the children at assemblies/meetings?

  by JimmyPage in

  especially those of you married to servants and elders?

  how did you feel about that?

  did you wish the society would make more accomodations for dealing with children?.

  Were you Stalked or Chased After Once you Exited the JW's by Elders ?

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i tried to fade off the map by moving 30 miles initially in 2004 after i exited in late 2003 .

  the first several years they didn't bother me.

  i ran into a elder from my former congregation in late 2005 in an antique store - he tried telling me i was wrong for stopping attending meetings.

  Memorial observance… It isn’t about Jesus at all!

  by 1badmutha in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we all know that jesus is a pretty much-overlooked figure by the wbts.

  they refuse to celebrate his birth for a number of convoluted reasons, which i refuse to argue.

  but, it is curious that they celebrate the death of christ.

  Why do Jehovah's Witnesses lie to recruits?

  by jerome in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  first let me say this.. i have constantly been hearing of the legendary honesty/intergity of the jehovah's witness for some time now.

  i have also been informed that they are the happiest people on the entire earth.. my problem is this:.

  when a jehovah's witness comes to your door and you actually decide to give them a few moments of your time they never give the whole story as to what you would be getting involved with when you join the watchtower.. case in point.
