over the years i have had to deal with this problem personally and as a attendant covering my section at various convention centers.
i had people who were suppose to be decent jehovah witnesses pick up all the books, bags and coolers belonging to brothers and sisters who arrived at the appropriate time and picked them up and dumped them all at the end of the seating row.
so here is what goes down, the sister runs up to me panicking and saying "dear brother, i had all those seats reserved for my family and now look!
Wow! These stories are amazing. I've been 'worldly' for over a decade now and can't imagine behaving like this in public spaces. Just wow.
Anyways, enjoy your seats guys! I'll be ... you know ... doing something a lot better with my time... which, as you know, is anything.
tortured by this talk where they are attempting to legitimize the division/ separation of family.. "sadly friends some will refuse to have courage in this matter.is it not in our best interests to abide the arrangements of the christian congregation as set by jehovah?
accept the torture stake involved in confessing union with christ.
then they cite the example of a brother who is thankful to his wife for persisting in preaching to him.. now they are talking about disfellowshipping, lay serious guilt trip .the brother talking about his baby sister getting disfellowshipped, how his father cried for the first time.
how his father cried for the first time.
Oh, yeah, the society is filled up with a real bunch of tough guys, lol!
Such examples of good men... spineless yes-men and emotionally disconnected all at the same time.
Small wonder so many little JW girls grow up with daddy issues.
so on friday all day, the mic guy did a bang up job.....until david splane got to the podium.
it looked like he discussed how the mic should be set up for him, then finally when the mic guy was walking away david says " well im glad we got that settled".
then today same thing, he got the mic guy to readjust the mic for him again.
hhmm.
Interesting. Glad I read this. Still had hurt feeling from the WT conductor 'tsk'ing at me once in front of everybody. I thought I must have done something wrong and was a complete moron.
He was a weird elder.. single.. and looked like a red-haired version of 'Data' guy on one of those Star Trek remakes. I had always kind of assumed that he was upset because the microphone reminded him of his penis that nobody would satisfy but himself.
So, yeah, thanks for the clarification!
My feelings aren't hurt so much anymore, lol.
hi folks!.
someone told me that there is a rumor that soon the watchtower and awake's magazines will be only one (fusion).. anybody knows something concrete about that, or is only rumor instead?.
tj curioso.
Wow I left too early... the magazines penetrate each other?
Actually, they're right to be concerned... getting horny now... am I... alone?
to paraphrase a well known saying.
is it true, in a judicial committee, if you can fake repentance, then they are likely to let you off being disfellowshipped, almost regardless of the "severity" of the sin involved?
can former elders and perhaps victims of the process shed light on the matter?
Wow, sir82's comments are cynical even for me... love it!
the day finally comes.
you get up one day with the nagging feeling that it's going to be different.
you get dressed, get in the car, then notice how dark the weather's getting.
If I survived armegeddon and realized my fate was an eternity with JW's...
I'd murder myself.
It'd just be a matter of time.
Happy Birthday!
Can I call it that?
Yeah... I just did.
if the shoe were on the other foot and it was a triumph over some adversity caused by the weather they'd be bragging until the cows come home.
but no, just silently admit defeat on this one.. poor flacid jehovah and his band of merry witnesses - and you know that none of them volunteered to help people with their suddenly newly acquired time off!.
lol!
I absolutely will not be attending the beforesaid convention.
I got half way to Edmonton for the evac... that's as close as I'm going to get I'm afraid.
Enjoy!

I saw after I posted this thread that there was already one all about this stuff.
I was evacuated and left town to family that are witnesses (well stayed in motel). The sense I got from them was that people would be talking about how the Jehovah's Witness convention was cancelled and how that's good because there'd be more hotel rooms available.
First of all, an extra 3 to 4 thousand rooms wouldn't even touch the sides... secondly, just because this is your big summer event... nobody's talking about it.
Deluded!
^ Look it up in the dictionary and there'll be a picture of a Kingdom Hall beside it.
PS. No damage to my property btw... destruction in every direction around me but I did good.
