  Inappropriate Behavior

  by rebelfighter in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  now i know i am getting older or of the older generation.

  i have had a very strange day with a lot of strange dealings with people with strange behavior today but this one incident was just over the top.

  so i came out of a store in a busy shopping center.

  Interesting, rebel; your Facebook comment made me think...

  According to just a quick Facebook text search, there are lots of people who post about changing clothes in the parking lot of the gym rather than in the dressing room... some because they are uncomfortable changing in the gym dressing room in close contact with others because they were victims of childhood sexual abuse in the school locker rooms by... applies to men and women both. I had no idea.

  So, I am wondering if this guy you are dissing is a rape or child abuse victim who is more comfortable changing where he can be seen (and helped by others in an emergency) rather than chance doing so in a space he views as dangerous.

  Just a thought...

  Playboy Features Hijab for the First Time

  by Village Idiot in

  1. social
  2. current

  .

  don't know about you guys but i've always found something erotic about muslim women wearing the hijab and, not the burkha, but a modest loose dress that leaves plenty to the imagination.

  it has an air of the mysterious like i want to actually get underneath it and explore what most men are not allowed to see in the relatively modest dresses of western women.. here's an article on miss playboy bunny: https://www.yahoo.com/style/145960-182016583.html.. any fantasizers out there?.

  why would a muslim woman even be in such a publication? doesn't that go against the very core of their beliefs on modesty? :/

  Performance Impact due to Google Indexing

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  just a heads up in case the site seems slow - you're requests are competing with googlebot because it's being indexed and it's really going at it ... a minute ago there were 40+ instances fired up there were so many requests coming it.

  i guess the data doesn't have far to travel so it can hit things hard.

  i did have a throttle in place but took it off because i wanted to speed things up a bit ... well, it worked!.

  "Maybe we're all too hung up about the naked body. In this case just his underwear. "

  This...

  We don't know his circumstances or what kind of day he had that led him to have to change into his work clothes in a parkinglot. Hopefully, he didn't lose his housing and is one of many who still work, many times low paying jobs, but is stuck living out of his car. Live and let live, peoples. And, If my kiddos had seen him, I would simply have explained just that. No need to pass impossible puritanical standards on to the next generation... we've already left them with enough to have to clean up... this is kind of silly.

  Any Others of the "Anointed"?

  by Hernandez in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was baptized in 1985, was a regular pioneer, ministerial servant, and on the way to becoming an elder when i left the witnesses in 1999. i also was one of those who claimed and (at the time ) believed i was one of the anointed.. i am wondering if there are any others here who also claimed they were of the anointed?

  how did you come to that conclusion?

  how do you feel about your claim now that you are out?.

  Pretty common to be maligned when claiming to be a member of the annointed if you don't fit their preconceived notion of who 'should' be. Arrogant if you ask me for a man made orgainzation to say one way or the other as it (according to the bible) is not their responsibility to 'award'. :/ I've seen two 'late claimers' in my life, both treated like a pariah by the elders.

  Will the UN turn on Religion?

  by no-zombie in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as all witnesses know, the opening gambit of the great tribulation will occur when the united nations turns on organized religion to devastate them and leave them naked of people and resources.

  however, as jehovah's judgement day has been spoken of as being "imminent", the question that can be fairly asked ... 'is the united nations organization actually in a position to act as god's destroyer of false religion?

  while i have no doubt that most within that organization had in the past tried to make the lives of the desperate better, the united nations has unfortunately now become a weak and underfunded political eunuch.

  My first reaction is pure anger...

  How dare the JW's continue this bullshit shunning in the light of a family emergency! My second thought is that ToesUp is right: your wife is your primary concern and this JW stuff needs to take a back burner. Really, does it matter that much? This is your wife... she is sick - gravely ill... your mom is helping not them. grrrrr

  Tell these nosey idiots to take a hike. Stand up for your mom and stand up for your wife.

  -calms down-

  and, i am so very sorry you are going through this. my thoughts are with you. hopefully your wife will heal well and quickly. <3
