  You have the head of the house card to play if you want to. You can drop her off at the RC and take the boys with you to do something fun. Let them decide if they would rather sit all day in dress clothes listening to boring talks with mom or go to (fill in the blank with their favorite thing) with you.

  You have more power than you think.

  Yup, 3 days for me too. By chapt. 3 I was mentally out but couldn't put it down. I never bothered with ISCF. The Mexico Malawi issue was enough to convince me that there was NO Holy Spirit operating on this organization therefore, doctrines were irrelevant. Instead, went straight to Steven Hassen.

  If only I would have given myself permission to read COC when it first came out! Better late than never, though.

  Thanks Deltawave and TheListener, I suspected that the adults might be a lot more excited about these videos than teens who are pretty hard to impress.

  Has anyone heard feedback from the "youth" about these videos? I don't mean young children but tweens and teens. Are these videos having the desired effect on that age group? Just curious.

  If Women were elders, would it make a difference in the organization?

  by John Aquila in

  imagine three single sisters who qualified to be appointed as elders in the congregation.

  they qualified because they started reaching out in their early teens.

  persistently and methodically they worked their way through the ranks by pioneering then becoming a m.s.

  JA, "Would it really matter to a beautiful woman what married sisters think?"

  Sometimes it does. BTW most eligible brothers don't look like George Clooney and company. :)

  Thanks for posting this, Barbara.

  According to pew, only 35% of JWs are male. If you take into account the many who are only there to keep peace in the family or to help their loved ones out, the percentage of BELIEVING males would be even lower.

  JA, Boy, are you dreaming! :)

  Most of the women appointed would be the wives of current elders, widows. and older sisters. Few would be hot. The sexy types would not be appointed in the first place because the frumpy elderettes would have a large say in the process.

  An attractive single sister is often treated like dirt by the married sisters in the hall. Trust me, I know.

  I haven't laughed like that since the ASL dude's masterbation video.

  haaaaaaay, there's another idea. Taking one of his expressive videos and interpreting for the interpreter.
