  JW women true value

  by Chook in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  when they sent out internal letter to elders regarding the binding of elders book , worldly men could do the job but only under supervision of a elder.

  but under no circumstance could a sister touch the book.

  the idiots put it in print, any elders wives on this forum should take it up with their man.

  Are quality restaurants even slightly aware of the concept..

  by The Rebel in

  of providing high quality food?.

  personally i prefer the small restaurants with a owner who cooks the food.

  often the food is equally imaginative and just as tasty as the more expensive restaurant.

  Cooking at home is becoming a thing of the past. Fast food is getting cheaper and cheaper while groceries are subject to runaway inflation. Ten years ago, I could shop for groceries to feed our family of three for about 35-40 per week. That was three meals a day for three people for seven days and included snacks and drinks and basic grocery store stuffs like laundry, dish and personal soaps, shampoo & conditioner and pet foods/litter. Last week, getting all generic stuffs, and shopping for only two people, my total was 75. It's insane.

  they likely don't care about the 'worldly binders' since they know if these 'worldly' men should peek into the books contents they'll die of laughter. jw women, on the other hand, would likely take it seriously and mutiny...

  you know... i'd PAY to see that happen. XD

  i have been out of the cult for over 20 years.

  i left when the idiots changed the meaning of generation in 95 and the internet came to life giving me the links to see just what a mind numb bunch i was with.

  i now live in a populated area where there is a hall about half a mile away.

  Memorial Services

  by penny2 in

  2. friends

  all jw memorial services i've been to have been similar.

  a couple of sentences about the deceased and then it's all about the religion.

  very impersonal and scripted.

  this is why i didn't attend the service for my dad.. i knew it wouldn't be about him anyhow but more bla... bla... bla... crud about the org. and an opportunity for my 'family' to try to use the emotion of the event to drag me back into the group. :/ in effect, it never was about him so why go? mom sent me a cop of the obit they were 'allowed' to put in the local paper... got about three sentences in and put it away... turned my stomach to be honest...

  "grieving Witness parents shunning their adult children. They may come to blame their adult children for the loss, not able to admit that it was their severe beliefs that drove their children away."

  So very true...

  she is in pain from her knee injury, is on steroids and possibly going to have surgery.. she is asking if anyone here, has had the same problem, and if so, what did they do and how was the outcome?.

  Stay off of it as much as possible. A laproscopic surgery will likely be ordered if you've got serious damage. I sure hope you are able to get the medical treatment you need, Blondie. Sorry you are going through this, been there... it is NO fun. :(
