  Lookin' for a little advice tonight...

  by wasasister in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i heard from an old friend today - she is a young woman i knew from my last congregation.

  i was asked to attend her bible study because we shared a profession and it was thought we would have something in common.

  in fact, she was a very shy young woman shy and attractive, but not in the traditional, flashy way of many witness girls.

  Can I get an explanation

  by Bang in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  comforter started a thread stating how ex-jws won't go from door to door.

  my own hearing is that people aren't supposed to.

  "do not go from house to house".

  Is It Fair To Discipline Born-Into-It's?

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a born-into-it teenager or maybe someone in their early 20's, gets df'd for an unspecified offence.

  later the df'd person protests that df'ing is unscriptural and inhumane, only to be told "you knew the score, you knew what would happen, it's your fault".. but is it?

  maybe it might be fairer for a converted person to be df'd for breaking the rules, after all, a converted person has joined the jw's willingly and has therefore accepted the witness rules.

  JW Family Tries Black-Mailing Me

  by Prisca in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have spent the last week or so with my sister and bro-in-law and my 6year old niece, all jws.

  they live in a town not too far away from me, and i visit them every couple of months or so.

  my sister and i are close, not extremely so, but we appreciate each other as we have no other bros & sisters, our mother died 21yrs ago, and our father treats us as though we are dead too (due to non-jw issues).. last time i went to visit them, my bro-in-law asked my niece to ask me if i'd go to the meeting.

  What is an Amicus Brief

  by 3acrewood in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  hi, waiting, and all others concerned about this amicus brief:.

  just to set the record straight - i have been a legal secretary for over 20 years, and i assure you there is nothing shady about the society filing an amicus brief in regard to this swaggart thing.

  an amicus brief is filed in cases in which the verdict could set a precedent that would or could have an adverse affect on other parties not involved in the suit (i.e., other religious organizations, corporations, etc.).
