It is also true in Hawaii. My sister lived there in the 90’s for 8 or so years. There was times when the police were called because the parting was so loud. Lots of drunkenness too. I visited her when I was 13 for 2 months. Every weekend there was a party when I was there. I saw plenty of “over indulgence” among the “faithful witnesses.” Including my then brother-in-law and other elders and MS's in their hall.

JWs in Florida and California. Is there really a difference?
by BU2B ini have heard over the years from many different people about how jws in those states are unlike elsewhere.
the parties they have, the way they dress and the permissive attitude.
i just heard from a sister that is from florida, that if you are not "spiritually strong" you will "fall out of the truth" down there.

Lol. My sister and her family – uber dubs – were in California last week on vacation. They kept taking pictures of every JW.org stand they came to along the beech. Making nauseating comments about where ever they go blah friends blah wonderful organization blah blessed blah…
At least I’m conscientious enough to block my mom and sister from seeing our kid’s happiness during birthdays and holidays. I wish they would extend the same courtesy to me. I don’t think they would understand the connection.

They are Definitely Attacking "Higher Education"
by XBEHERE ina friend of mine recently had his co visit and in the elders meeting the co out-right asked the question: how are the friends doing in your cong.
as regards pursuing higher education?
the co continued...you know in view of all the counsel from the slave regarding the dangers.

Graphic violence against a Jehovah's Witness in the name of entertainment
by Debbie Klick ina so called friend of mine sent me this link to a music video.. the song seems to be ridiculing jehovah's witness's and their practise.. but more disconcerting is the visual content, which actually shows the assault and murder of a jehovah's witness.. i can appreciate there is an element of humour involved, but find it in pretty poor taste.. and in no way a positive message to the populace and for the safety of jehovah's witness's in general.. .

lol. I liked it. But once was enough for me. Not a big fan of this type of punk music. The message was good though.

I am not interested in acknowledging them in a way that makes them feel they have any authority over me. Mrs. Dazed will deal with the problem with her mom if one comes up. I really don’t think her mom would stop talking to her because of a DFing. Her mom is cooler than most JWs.
If she is determined not to lose contact with her family but you don't give a sh&t, she could attend the JC and point the finger at you (like Lost Gen says).
I thought of this as well and I'm fine with it if it comes to that.
LostGen - I like the "Sign with an X" so at least I could read the letter. I may do this if they send a registered letter.

The ONLY problem I see with the "JW defender" channel from a legal standpoint is that they're using what might be a trademarked symbol owned by the WTBTS: that little blue "JW.org" emblem.
They removed the JW.org logo and changed it to a JW Defense logo for their profile picture.
They did keep the jw.org link however.

Oh man, I wish I still played. I used to play COD as much as possible. I got rid of the 360 a couple months after my daughter was born. I was Bonecrush3r and then ShadowAssa55in. I miss my gaming days.
Now its Mario on the Wii with my son.

Worst Ever Field Service Experiences
by dozy ingenerally i found most people were pretty apathetic and often surprisingly tolerant , but we've all had some bad ones.
looking back , here were my worst couple of experiences - there probably were others but i've probably long forgotten them or blanked them off.. i was a kid of maybe 13 & it was bitterly cold & pouring with rain.
i was working alone in a middle class street near my school where i knew a lot of my school teachers lived & was scared stiff at every door half the time pretending to press bells , doing the fake knock etc.

I was maybe 14 or 15, there was a medium size dog that was loose. It ran up to me and put its 2 front paws on my chest. It was very excited. Once I pet it and pushed it away, I noticed my pants were warm and wet. It pissed all over my legs and book bag.

My uncle-in-law used to post here. He started sometime in 2003 I think. When I was in he was careful not to say too much against the ORG. Now that I’m out, we talk regularly. I go back and read his posts sometimes.
Anyone from Kennewick Washington area… Tri-Cities? I would be curious if there were any from the area I grew up in from the late 80s to early 2000s?
