  How did you feel, when you missed your 1st Memorial?

  by JH in

  2. friends

  i remember going to each memorial even when i was inactive.

  i felt that i had to go to atleast that meeting.. then one year, i was sick on that day, and didn't go to the memorial.

  it was a funny feeling to miss the most important day of the year, as a jw would call it.. but i got used to it, when i missed my 2nd and 3rd memorial..

  I didn't notice.

  Where I worship they "remember" Christ's sacrifice at least 5 times a month.

  As a j-dub, how did you react to christian music?

  by Highlander in

  2. friends

  so i'm riding in a car the other day with a j-dub.

  on the radio, i have it turned to a station that plays the occasional christian rock type music.

  a song comes on that has lyrics.

  Here in the UK "Christian Music" as a genre isn't available in secular music stores and it doesn't get ANY airplay on national or local radio.

  So you can't buy Jars of Clay or Michael W Smith or CeCe Winans next to Green Day, Eminem and Celine Dionne.

  Hence I'd never heard any "Christian Music" until I left the JWs. LMAO at the hands over the ears bit, and you are right to deduce they are insane

  As for "Kingdom Music" I would struggle to categorise it under "music" as the pianist on the tapes certainly couldn't read music well. If you follow the music to the kingdom songs you'll see that the pianist was playing the tunes by ear as he/she doesnt follow the music. No higher than a grade 4 musician I'd say

  Have any of you seen the movie "The Village"?

  by Lady Liberty in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  about a month ago a movie was on cable called "the village".

  it was a freaky movie, and i was a little uncomfortable watching it, but nothing ever happened that made me turn the channel.

  turns out there is quite a twist in the end which explained the freakyness.

  I saw it at the pics. Halfway thru I leaned across to my wife and said "I think I've sussed this one out"

  Basically I guessed the twist.

  I thought it was pretty average

  I go with the family.

  Ozzie and Little Toe's comments sum me up really (except the bit about the virgins - we still have them). And whoever it was who said that their children don't dread going to church.

  I left JWs because the evidence showed that they couldn't be God's EXCLUSIVE organisation, not because their errors changed my belief in God.

  He'd have probably chosen to go like that if he could.

  Totally barmy tho.

  In the end he goes in a freak accidental incident as opposed to a madcap moment gone wrong.

  Anyone see the time he got bitten by a deadly snake he picked up at night in the middle of the road. He got in the truck and they drove like lunatics to the nearest medical centre over an hour away. You could tell he was sh*&%ing himself!
