dennis was offered £5 by cool kids smoking pot and fornicating.
he turned it down and went to read the wt as he turned the page.
what did he see?a £5 note.
Yh I've heard the majority of these. The JEHOVAH on the shiney floor I remember my dad telling my that one when I was like 6.
Did you ever hear or read the one where a brother was in prison in WW2 and the guard used to use pages of the bible to roll his cigarettes and the brothers collected all the dog ends and would hold bible studies in the prison using the left over pages of the bible?
the most annoying song in the world... we're jehovah's witnesses.. can anyone beat this?.

The most annoying song in the world... We're Jehovah's Witnesses.
Can anyone beat this?
something weird and scary happened to us last nihgt.
we had a few friends over for the weekend.
we love to go hiking and long walks wherever and whenever we can.
On a lighter note, here's something I received recently from a JW:
I was walking home last night and decided to take a short-cut through the cemetery. Three girls walked up to me and explained that they were scared to walk past the cemetery at night, so I agreed to let them walk along with me. I told them, "I know how you feel - I used to get freaked out too when I was alive."
Ok, this weird... I heard the exact same story from an elderly sister in the KH I grew up in. That being the case it's probably an urban myth.
there are a lot.
anything blood related was difficult to reasonably prove from a witness perspective.. 1914 was another one.
what can you add to the list?
For me, whenever i read the epistles of Paul I couldn't get my head around the idea that "this doesn't refer to you, he's talking about the 144,000 only". I remember reading some of it thinking it was very clear that he's talking about all Christians - so had to revert to Watchtowers to explain it away to me.
an ex bethelite has made a video about the food that was provided at hq's.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxbe9hacqxu.
towards the end he talks about the new arrangements with the cutbacks.for breakfast if you had served a certain amount of time at bethel or were old enough you could choose whether you wanted to attend breakfast/morning worship or not.
first year bethels were made to attend to ensure they were watching the morning worship.
Remember that photo that went viral with JWs of Tony Morris washing a cup? And the captions were "oh he's so humble!"
Washing a f***ing cup? What's so special about that?
bill ,a non witness is killed driving home after work, providing for his family.
he left behind his wife and 3 kids all under 8 years of age.
armageddon comes the very next month.
You're forgetting, Jehovah will lovingly remove your non JW relatives from your memory.
Yes, when god cant make you happy he resorts to giving you a lobotomy instead.
in my area, a lot of young people don’t want to have kids.
they get married young from 18-22 years old, and think that they know how they’re going to feel the rest of their lives about having children, (which they think will be never).
i respect people who don’t want to have kids, there are good reasons not to, but i think it’s foolish at a young age to think you will never think differently for the rest of your life.
Giordano, thanks for that list of quotes. I've been sat here at my desk laughing my head off!
the money grab continues!!
at a very recent circuit assembly (usa), the accounts overseer gave the typical accounts report for the ca in the early afternoon.
there were 2100 people at the assembly.
This must be the equivalent of inviting someone to your home for dinner, then presenting them with a bill at the end for the food they've eaten AND the food YOU eaten plus the cost of heating and electricity.
do today's elders ever meet with inactive members and pressure them to write a letter disassociating themselves from the congregation stating that, ''you no longer wish to a jehovah witness"?.
i was baptized at the young age of 16. after turning 18, i stopped attending meetings, field service, and all jehovah's witness activities.
i wanted to be with my high school friends, go to rock concerts, have a girlfriend, and live like a normal teen.
"Do you still believe this is Jehovah's chosen organization?"
Wow, what a bold question. Anyone claiming that their org alone is god's one chosen org better have a lot of evidence to back it up.
"We have a spiritual feast prepared for you brothers..." - said at the beginning of every convention.
"Serve where the need is great" - why even talk like that? What not say "serving where needed"?
