by minimus in

friends

i spent the week with a few people, 2 jw's and their 2 non-believing husbands.

a few different situations arose that suggested to me that some of these people are a little bit crazy.

now, i'm not talking about certifiably crazy,i'm talking about just a little bit nuts.

How Do The French Feel About Us?

by Englishman in

jw
friends

earlier this week, british cemetries in northern france were vandalised by persons objecting to the war in iraq.. .

a uk newspaper carried this report:.

the showpiece cenotaph at the graveyard in northern france was smeared in red paint with the words: dig up your rubbish.

qwerty

I think the French don't like Americans because they are jealous!...........Sounds Childish I know.

Just been watching BBC New 24 they interviewed some Russians (in Russia). They feel the Americans need to be stopped, they said, that they are trying to take over the world!

Jealousy ........... is mans worst enemy!

...............Not too sure what the French think of us Brits!

Funny screenshot from MINI website

by Jourles in

a couple days ago, i was browsing the mini website checking out the new cooper s. today, i woke up the computer i was using to view their website and noticed that i didn't close out my browser session.

at first glance, i thought my wife sent a netbios message telling me to get off the computer(she thinks she is so cool now that i showed her how to do that).

but then i read on further and saw that it came from mini.

i got a not so unexpected call today

by free will in

jw
friends

well, about a month ago, i had to have a talk with the elders.

primarily due to my lack of meeting attendance.

i decided to make an effort and attend, after about two sunday meetings, i found out about the un and haven't been back since.

qwerty

I have Caller ID, it comes in handy. Just make sure you have all the elder names and numbers programmed in first!..........I think I am missing a few, thanks for the reminder.

I assume like me you are in the UK?

Need Help and Advise

i have an ex jw friend who has been out for about 3 years now, and has since been going to every memorial just to keep her family happy.

she is baptised, and so far has sucessfully done the fade, though she has never actually told her parents that she wants no part of the org.

now the memorial is coming up and her family expects her to go.

qwerty

Hi In_between_days.

You say she's been doing the slow fade, I think she should have stopped going to the memorial after the first time. Mind you, I suppose it's a bit later for that now!

I've been doing the slow fade since my awakening to the Borg for about three years or more also, from back in the days of the old H2O board. In that time I have, like many on this broad, suffered with feelings of hopelessness even been prescribed medicines for depression. I have not been to meetings for months and months, it's got to be coming up to a year now. The last time I went to meetings was around last Memorial or not long after. Strangely my depression has disappeared, wonder of wonders!

The only person that's inquired about whether I'm going to the memorial, is my wife, she knew I would want to go anyway but asked on the off chance. At the moment I've not really bumped into many of my XJW associates. Any I have seen have not dared to ask, but I if they do I will tell them straight, like I told a zealous newby JW at a BBQ last summer, when he enquired if I was coming back to meetings, I said - "No way"! He look shocked, I wanted him to question why someone like me (XPioneer/ MS almost Elder)would turn away from "da Troof".

Like your friend I am wondering what the reaction will be if I don't show up, no correct that, when I don't show up! I refuse to be like one of the hypocrites, that only show up to the KH once a year (no offence to your friend, she is trying after all to get out unscathed), whereas there are lots of one's who still believe it's the truth and go because that's the done thing for weak ones, LOL! There again who knows out of all those once a yearers, which ones - are also doing the slow faded but not been able to pluck up the courage to stop altogether.

I suppose the non confrontational way for your friend to reject the memorial, would be to make sure she has something planned for that night. She can say she can not get out of it. Sorry but that's the only thing I can think of without directly saying I am not going.
