  Would you have married your spouse if you weren't both JWs?

  ok, i've had some wine, but i'm curious.

  objectively speaking, but for the religion, did you have enough in common with your spouse to have met and married as non believers?

  We had a 90$ in 1999, in USA. In missionary-service it was about 70$. And of course your monthly pea.

  Has anyone noticed the JW movies are trying to normalise their lifestyle?

  having watched the prodigal son returns movie produced by the organization and a recent mini-clip of a brother in london who is shown jogging and doing normal everyday things while wanting to "reach out" it occurred to me that the organization is trying to normalize their bizarre lifestyle and beliefs for the benefit of non-witnesses.. what do i mean by normalization?

  they try to make the witnesses look like just another christian denomination who are reasonable while their members live and enjoy normal lives that appear to be within the mainstream.. they do this by not mentioning anything to do with higher education, armageddon or the urgency of the end of the world nor is their discussion or mention of the blood issue.

  these are things mentioned often at kingdom halls and in study articles.. watching the prodigal son returns, the family appears to live a normal life, going to meetings and studying.

  @Nitty-Gritty, what do you mean , these movies are not made up? Are they documentaries or something? Please....They are as fake as all the stories at the conventions we used to hear and see (or maybe not) after the biblical drama's.

  Not every month report = irregular publisher, still counts end of year.

  Six months no report= inactive, does not count anymore.

  In missionary service we had a meeting with all of us and the branch committee. A few weeks before, one of the brothers, a missionary and member of the committee, I have to say, a real, real humble, nice, sincere old brother, anointed had died. Brother Salvino Ferrari...the nicest person I ever got to know.

  At the meeting the BC told me that the night before Ferrari died he got a visit from angels. As his original language was italian, he cried :"angeli, angeli!".

  Believe it or not as the program says....
