Question: "What's the longest you've ever stood in line?"
Answer: The line to the women's restroom at the 1958 District Convention held in NYC. The peak attendance was 253,922. Not NEAR enough bathrooms for the over-crowded conditions. At 6 years old I thought I was going to wet my pants! I still remember desperately holding my mothers' hand because I was terrified I would be lost in the massive crowd.
Actually any super large DC had ridiculously long lines. Especially in the '50s and '60s.

My son-in-law has a friend who died recently of Covid-19. The man was in his 30's and had asthma. My SIL also has asthma so needless to say, I am concerned. They are in the LA area.

by Biahi indo you guys think during this corona virus lockdown, the gb will be “raptured to heaven”, thereby escaping any lawsuit from irwin zalkin?

I tried to buy toilet paper 3 days ago and found there wasn't even a small package - at ANY price. When I told Hubby he asked, "Do we have any old Watchtowers or Awakes laying around somewhere?" After I finished laughing, I said, "Sorry, No".

Did being raised a Jehovah's Witnesses result in psychological damage? An interesting read in the New York Times.
by Balaamsass2 ininteresting read in the new york times book review.
food for thought on a subject 3rd gen and i have discussed between ourselves and with our daughter.
in our case, the answer is yes.

The attempt by Watchtower is to keep its followers isolated and ignorant. This is accomplished by requiring busywork and indoctrination sessions as well as demonizing secular association, reading, and higher education.
No wonder that when a person leaves JWs they often have stunted social skills and limited decision-making ability.
When we left I was a 60-year-old with the "worldly" experience of an 18- year-old. I'm still trying to "grow up" yet I often find myself doing things to nurture the little girl that was physically abused and forced to behave like a mini-adult.
