Simon, Oui monsieur, but I do love Canada. One of the few times I enjoyed a convention was back in the 70's, we went to one in Ottawa. Of course I loved the sightseeing more than the sessions!

New (non)-Witnessing Model
by berrygerry inso, one of the kids on reddit posted this video - an evangelist trying to witness to guardians of the cart.
(both sides are fairly respectful imo).

Yeah, the point is that the JW was unwilling and unprepared to answer a basic question on Christian doctrine. If people start quoting scriptures to them they are taken by surprise. -

I watch a lot of the BBC programs on PBS and it really helps to have closed captioning on. I love some of the words like lift for elevator but don't dare tell a woman in the US that you would be happy to knock her up! Please, not all Americans eat McDonalds. We may smell like freedom but at least we don't smell like unwashed bodies and garlic. -

I think this was pretty sad. Just like when I went to the KH, I never felt ANY comfort in that atmosphere. The cart guy didnt know squat. "Not here to talk about the Bible"? Really? The old timers would be ashamed of this. The guy on the street gave a much more comforting and intelligent answer to his own question. Yeah, not there to talk about the Bible, there to push a website. -

Paraplegic JW example used at assemblies
by Alfred init seems like every time our circuit failed to meet the field service goals set by our co, the very next circuit assembly would invariably include a talk that mentions a chronically ill paraplegic sister who would dial the phone with her tongue to make return visits or conduct bible studies... i must have heard this experience at least 6 or 7 times in the past 20 years or so.
and every time i heard this recycled talk, they would add even more guilt-inducing twists to it.
to me, it eventually became way to difficult to believe...

I personally would not appreciate someone that infirm struggling up the steps to my front door. Imagine if they tripped and fell. Hope my homeowners insurance is up to date! -

Wow, what a story. Would a JW woman be allowed to take the injection I wonder. I thought about that after I had my baby when I found out I had the RH factor because the injection for that is made from blood. Thankfully by that time I was out of the cult! -

Cart Witnessing - Thrilling! Productive! Epic! Er.....um, well, not so much.....
by sir82 intalked with a pioneer recently, she was recounting her first experience with cart witnessing.. she brought the subject up, was going on & on & on & on about how wonderful the experience was, and how great, and how she enjoyed it so much, and it was so wonderful, and oh jehovah's blessing, and on and on and on...... a few questions to her revealed what really happened:.
-- a jw who owns a small restaurant in a strip mall allows jws to set up their cart outside his restaurant.
-- the restaurant is tucked pretty far out of the way, not prominent at all.

Gordon Lightfoot
by RAYZORBLADE inok, if you're a canuck, chances you know that gordon lightfoot is about right up there with ol' jehover!.
but if not, nevermind, but i have to admit, i have been a lifelong fan of: gordon lightfoot.. this evening, i took his 'greatest hits' and gave it a listen, and as expected, i was still enthralled with his lyrical genius, and playing abilities.. anyone a gordon lightfoot fan?.
just curious.. all your folks living along north america's "great lakes" keep in mind, next month is the 28th anniversary of the sinking of the "edmund fitzgerald".. that song, by gordon lightfoot is haunting from beginning to end (over 6 minutes).. i personally love: go-go girl in love, bitter green, canadian railway trilogy, sundown, race among the ruins, wreck of the edmund fitzgerald, and well i like just about every damn thing he ever did.. your contributions?
