  Well... I got my 'invite'

  as most know, it's that time of the year when the jws go out 'in force' and bang on doors trying to leave their litter-ature for the memorial - aka 'memorial invite'.. this morning (saturday), i was at the local coffee shop - which is normal for me.

  my wife was at home chilling on the sofa, in her nightie.. i got a text message around 9:30-ish saying that jws had been at our house.. when i got home, my wife said she was sitting on the sofa when she heard a light 'tap tap' on the door.

  we have a doorbell.

  My life of Debauchery since leaving WTBT$-They were right!!!

  since april 1st will be officially 6 months and i will be considered inactive, i thought this would be a good time for me to review my life since leaving....and i guess wtbt$ is right in that my life would return to a debauched state if i left them...so here is my review and i'm being totally serious here.. .

  sex: yes i have sex with my husband.....i guess we have returned to the world because we take advantage of our marital dues.. related to sex: no longer just missionary.

  drugs: yes i have been taking drugs......my allergies have been so bad the last few days i just couldn't handle it anymore and i gave in to the temptation to take over the counter allergies medicine.. rock and roll: yes......i am no longer listening to the kingdom melodies (i never really did anyways), and have gone to listening to the devils music.

  Our debased lifestyle now includes attending fundraising events for terminally ill people. Aren't we just awful?

  I personally know a local sister who was badly injured in a wreck coming home from an assembly. Her husband was killed instantly and their passenger was also badly injured. The wreck was 100% the fault of the other driver, who swerved into their lane and hit them head on. So no divine protection there.

  Any "inappropriate" or "saucy" conversations out in Field Service car groups???

  by Gojira_101 in

  i thought of one that happened to me, i think i was 16 and regular pioneering at the time.

  i was in fs with my friend, i think she had to be about 18, and we were in a van with older married sisters, my friend and i were the only single ones.

  there were 6 of us in this van and my friend and i of course were forced to sit in the back (meaning we couldn't escape by jumping out of a moving van), anyway, the conversation turned to discussing molestation.. the two oldest sisters sitting in the front then started going into detail about how they had been molested, and it wasn't just "i was molested by..." no they went into detail.. i was shocked!

  I didn't mean during service - just when we were hanging out at the pool or out shopping together.

  Most of the time I was assigned to a mixed gender car group in service, plus I nearly always had at least one little kid with me. I don't remember ever hearing anything even remotely saucy while in service. On a couple of occasions, in private conversation with other married sisters, there was some discussion of sexual topics. However, even then it was far from explicit.

  Memorial Invites from Door to Door?

  by NeonMadman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is this the first year that the jws have been out aggressively handing out memorial invitations from door to door?

  i've been out for about 12 years now, but as i recall, congregations used to receive a relatively limited number of memorial invitations, and they were pretty much reserved for bible studies, good rvs, inactive persons, and others who had some sort of connection to the organization.

  they were not just randomly handed out from house to house - that was what the "special talk" invitations were for.. it occurs to me that this might be an attempt by the wts to pump up the memorial attendance so as to maintain the illusion of continued growth.

  so this morning we flirt and i tell her what a "dirty girl" she is for buying those books...but i was thinking this from a girl who broke a frying pan on my car years ago because i didnt want to go to the meetings.

  slowly i wore down that rock that she is with little facts and qoutes...i would not have stayed with her if she remained the fanatic witness she was....also she now swears like a sailor...i like that..

  50 Shades was 500 pages of boredom for about 10 pages of overwrought and ridiculous sex scenes. I'd second the vote for Exit to Eden or if you really want to read some freaky stuff, the Sleeping Beauty trilogy (also by Anne Rice).

  my wife and i were longtime jws.

  i was an elder for over 25 years and we had two stints of pioneering totally 14 years.

  My husband MISSED the meeting today! Unheard of!

  he decided to take me somewhere nice in the country for a day instead, and when he suggested it last night i was amazed that he would have even thought of missing the meeting!

  he was one of those guys who only missed a meeting, literally, if he had a spinal injury and couldn't move!.

  but, i've been sharing a little of the ttatt with him, teensy tiny bits that i can substantiate from the bible or other reputable sources.
