Double-life, sounds like a prison sentence....or maybe not?
by sparrowdown inquestion: do you think the "double-lifers" have the best of both worlds?.
just asking, because i have wondered, if i had an outlet to express my utter.
disgust and general dissatisfaction with wt teachings and cong-life while i. was still in, ie on forums etc, maybe i would never have left.. just a thought, anyone else have any?.

No longer to use "house to house record" slips and "please follow up slips"!
by stuckinarut2 ina letter has just been read out indicating that effective immediately, witnesses are no longer to use the s-8 slip known as the "house to house" record slip, as well as the s-43 "please follow up" slip (usually used for foreign language people).. the letter stated that this is because of the changes in privacy laws etc that are becoming common in the world today.. i will try and get a copy of the full letter and post it asap.. .

Defender of truth
yes these are instructions but worded as suggestions
and there is nothing here that implies the WTS is monitoring, maintaining or in any way involving themselves in this relationship
i believe thus instructuring and removal of slips are connected and limit liability to the BOrg

A day in the life of a Cop...my story. The truth.
by Witness 007 ini work for a mental health unit with 2 police officers we deal with people who have drug and mental health issues.
at times over the last 10 years we have "taken down" some large drug affected men, mainly "ice" these days which is epidemic here, and let me tell you even with three of us it is a huge struggle.
sometimes back up is needed or mace spray which is aweful stuff!

How would YOU like to die - At home with your family, or in Hospital with Strangers
by fulltimestudent ina big decision no one wants to make, but would you have a preference?.
and, i guess it may depend on what kind of relationship you have with your family.. .

i guess with or without god both beginnings require something coming from nothing
i have a hard time with that
but i have a much harder time believing an omnipotant being came from nothing and then created everything else, considering how simply matter can be understood to exist one would think it could easily come into existance without a creator before an omnipotant creator could exist without a creator

Ever notice how JW's can attend a talk or Convention and remember nothing?
by Wasanelder Once inhow many times have you asked a jw who has attended a public talk how the talk was, only to be told it was so great!
yet they cannot remember the title nor any one single point except that the brother was "funny" or was good with illustratiions or some other vauge point?
and conventions weren't far off either.

many years ago I heard an illustration...
the Org is like a train moving ahead continuously, to keep up with Jeh's Org we need to run with it, if we stand still the train will keep going and eventually we are no where near Jeh's org.
this has always been the general consensus but recently there is a new twist to this which uses it as justification for shunning
I believe eventually inactivity for a year with a subsequent refusal to accept a study to "come back" will result in an announcement of "so-and-so is no longer one of JW's"
and we all know what that equates too....

when i'm at the market i still see some of my former "friends" trying to avoid eye contact.
although i'm not df'd i may as well be in their eyes.

It would take half a day after we left for my wife and I to talk what felt like toxins out of our system.
wow, what a great analogy. I can totally imagine that scenario and can see myself feeling exactly the same

Bill Cosby - too much smoke for no fire?
by Simon init seems like the list of people who are accusing him of rape and sexual assault is growing every day.
i'm skeptical of single accusations but the number of people and the similar stories seem overwhelming now.. it's not a conviction but to the court of public opinion ... guilty?.
