Regular Pioneer hour requirement?
by tinker inmy son the 'elder' stopped in last night.
he does not shun us but our visits are few and far between.
he mentioned in passing that he and his wife began reg pioneering last oct. i know the hour requirement is way down from my pioneering years of 100hr per month.

He can also count the time giving public talks. I assume he can also count the time he councils unbaptized ones either in or out of judicial meetings.

Yet another child a victim of sexual abuse in my JW family
by Lady Lee inmy father sexually abused me.
there were other children in her home over the years.
if you were sexually abused by someone never leave a child alone with them or in the home where they are.

Lady Lee, I cannot imagine the pain you and the other victoms in your family have suffered. I'm guessing the indifference/abondonment by your mother was actually worse than the actual sexual abuse in some some ways. A mother is someone a child expects to be there to love and nurture. I don't mean to offend you but it is clear your mothers own desires were first and foremost on her priority list. Even animals wil die trying to protect their young from preditors!
As a mother I can't wrap my mind around wanting a particular man more than you love your own child...........then repeating...........and repeating. IMHO she has serious pathology. You are a testament to the human spirt to have overcome your background. I hope you are finding satisfaction and happiness in your life now.

by garbonzo inso i emailed the owner website that sells various jw and creationsit stuff, a guy who is supposedly a jw with these simple words:
why is your website so hard to navigate?
to which he must have taken negatively, and went on the defensive in an instant.

I find it strange that the GB constantly refer/imply that oral sex is a sin but forget to adress husbands who rape their wives. The PO(COBE) in our old hall had been doing this for years to his wife. She was often left with bruses on her thighs. He never was reproved by the "good ole boys" for it. He eventually was removed for comming to the meetings drunk.

Funniest Talk or Weird Things That Happened In Your Hall.
by Nephilim inthere is always at least 2 or 3 really crazy persons in the kingdom hall.
the kind of person that when they raise their hand the speaker on stage knows he's taking a gamble if he calls on them - yet he can't discriminate.. anyhow, i remember one time a younger brother was doing sound and one of those crazy brothers was about to give his 5 minute talk (i forget what number that was, prior to them just reading scripture).
the crazy brother slipped the young brother doing sound a cd and said "play this when i get on stage".. well, he gets up on stage and all of a sudden hawaiian music starts playing... the man on stage just starts dancing.
