  Remember when they were an impressive publishing corporation? And then they begrudged paying Caesar a small amount of sales tax. Now they hardly print any magazines and those that they do, they can't give away "for free".

  They'll never rescind the beard ruling, no matter how hairsute the congregation becomes.

  The most ridiculous thing about it is of how much of an issue it was and how it's change was shouted from the housetops like it was important. For Pete's sake, GB, it is just a few hairs sticking out of someone's face! They should never have had any sort of rigid policy on it in the first place.

  It's the shunning we're against. The family should be allowed to make up their own minds how to treat him, regardless of his WT membership status.

  Did he come forward to confess stuff, or were the elders snooping?

  As Balaamsass2 says, the WT needs to get out of the spy and cop business.

  "Virgin territory"? Does that mean new housing estates that have never been visited/canvassed by JWs?

  IMO, "wrongly" is redundant when talking about any disfellowshipment of a JW... 😿

  anyone have a quince tree?

  we found one growing by a large brick building and picked some fruit last summer.

  a bit too far north normally but this one survives.

  Back to the original topic, quince paste is often a feature of charcuterie boards. I'm not sure if you could make your own quince paste, but it might be worth a try. 👍

  peacefulpete, it's interesting that you should say that he wasn't big in the USA, because I remember growing up in the 70s with the Tomfoolery Show, a series of cartoon sketches based on Lear's works. It originated on NBC. To be fair, it apparently didn't get much traction.

  Lines you would never hear from a Jehovah's Witness

  by Ron.W. in

  a slightly tongue in cheek, but also serious roundup of jw speak and why trying to reason with them is like trying to chip through concrete with a plastic spoon.. how many can you think of??.

  elder: 'yes.

  i read through the material you asked me to at your judicial meeting - you're right we're both in a cult!
