YAY!!! My first time being shunned and it was humorous to say the least

by confusedandalone in

a good friend of mine invited me to a party after her meeting on sunday.

i told her i was not going any longer and she doesn't care.

she also let us know that no other witnesses would be there.

In such a setting, begin talking to him as though he was in a shunning contest and was not doingg so well. He can't speak to you: those are HIS rules. You can make him look like the fool he is.

"OK, folks, the shunning has begun, and Bob is pretending to not see my outstretched hand! But how long can he maintain the pretense? OH! Bob has turned his back and is walking away! Let's help him, shall we? Gimmee an "S"... S! Gimmee an "H"... H! Gimmee a "U"... U! Gimmee an "N"... N! What's that spell? SHUN! What's that spell? SHUN! What's that spell? SHUN!..."

Interesting experience while protesting at district conventions

by theron ware in

for three weekends this summer, a friend and i protested outside district assemblies being held in the tucson convention center.

our approach was very low key and completely non-confrontational: we just held our posters and smiled.

this was our experience at the first two assemblies (for the third assembly, see the next paragraph).

I agree with Paralipomenon; choreograph a simple silly series of moves - shift left , shift right, shift in opposite directions, switch sides, have one of you move and the other remain in place, turn it into a waltz - have a third co-conspirator video the scene, then add a music track and make the thing go viral! You will probably have to pixelate the faces of the attendents so that they cannot be identified. If you signs were on extendable poles, like the ones painters use, you can get your signs up above the heads of the attendants. Carry on a one sided conversation with the attendants, "Hey, your tag says attendant, so why aren't you attending?" "What if this was being filmed?" Sing songs from Jesus Christ Superstar just loud enough for the attendants to hear, but no one else.

Free today - the book I wish I'd found when I was getting out of JWs.

by AngusOg in

it's called quitting jehovah's witnesses & other cults: how to do it & why you should, and i hope you'll check it out.

i wrote it because other books seemed to focus on personal experiences (boring, irrelevant) or doctrinal discussion of why i should convert to some other religion (boring, irrelevant and insulting).

anyway, it's an ebook, it's free, and it's out today..

...and why is his left eye on the side of his head? Is he a reptiloid?

Was the building sold? Remember, the motto is still "invisibly present."

Is The WTS Building Beth Sarim 2 ?

by metatron in

i continue to puzzle over the future direction the watchtower is taking.

it seems very strange.. let's review: they are selling everything off in brooklyn, raking in huge sums from that real estate and building heavily in a fairly isolated part of upstate ny.. why?.

it may be classified as a country club (legally).

Nathan Natas

An appropriate name for the place would be

BETH SHAM

2014 Event

by enigma1863 in

i know its a year away but i wanted to inquire about the hundred year anniversary of 1914. it would be amazing to have a world wide event reguarding all exjws.

i am nowhere near capable of putting this together but i'd like to propose the largest assembly of exjws ever on october 1st 2014. can it be done?

am i the first to bring this up?

Nathan Natas

If that "100 years of Christ's rule" logo was on a t-shirt, I'd be buying a bunch of them!

But really, shouldn't all the festivities be heavily promoted but ultimately invisible?

I didn't realize that CEDARS had a point in Ohio... >cymbal crash<!

Survey - Do you believe in UFO's and Aliens?

by skeeter1 in

just a general survey on what & why you think of ufo's and aliens and where you are in your fade/disassociation path?.

what do you think of ufo's and aliens?.

Nathan Natas

I believe that there can be flying objects that I cannot identify.

I believe that there can be lifeforms that are alien to me; many of them right here on earth.
