so a couple came into the library where i work today and the woman said she was from the british sign language association and asked if i would display a leaflet for her.
when she handed me the leaflet the jw website logo jumped out at me as did the words 'would you like to study the bible with jehovah's witnesses?
' there was a small picture that had someone conversing in sign language but the other pictures were typical jw leaflet pictures.
Thanks for saying that Steve. Yes I normally do explain the library policy for accepting items for diplay and if she had handed it to me and said we are JWs please display this it would have been straightforward. I was dumbfounded by the barefaced lie.
My mind was racing but when a person says we represent one organization but they clearly represent something else entirely it is very difficult to speak especially, as you say, when one has to be tactful. Next time I will be ready for them.

I would contact the organization above and find out if they are aware of such an organization and how they were distributing WT publications under that organization's direction.
I might contact them Blondie. I'm sure the bda doesn't want religious organisations misrepresenting them.

Ruby you are a troll. You have trolled every single one of my threads talking utter rubbish, you troll everyone's threads. You have nothing useful to say. You don't encourage new people, you contribute nothing. I am not going to discuss this with you any more. You are a troll.
just a heads-up that i will be testing some updates this evening.. the nature of the changes means it's difficult to test every scenario in advance offline (translation: it's a lot more effort and i just can't be bothered) so i'm going to go with the "wing-it" approach:.
deploy, check for errors, try to fix errors before anyone else notices them.. i can switch between the new and old version pretty quickly so if there are significant issues, i'll rollback and revert the changes while i work on the fixes.
worse case is the pages won't display quite right (dates might be a giveaway) but a full page refresh should fix things.. http://www.refreshyourcache.com/en/home/.
Hi Simon, just wanted to mention that today some of the adverts on the forum are cutting right accross the middle of posts instead of at the top. Never had that before. I'm on chrome on iPad. No biggy, just didn't know if it was something to do with upgrades. Thanks for all your hard work.
i could never understand why some people who know the truth about the "truth" ever go back.
once you understand all the hypocrisy and negatives, i would think it's almost impossible to go back!.
Never. Give me liberty or give me death. It is a question of freedom or slavery. Freedom to make my own decisions how to live and my own mistakes. I take the responsibility for my life, I don't blame Satan when things go wrong. When I get it right it's beautiful.
last month i got caught by my wife after a late night out with her (and some drinks).
i guess i am evil.. just wondering if anyone else has had this misfortune.. rub a dub.
Another good reason not to remarry

I don't want to get off topic Ruby, my point was that they are telling lies about their identity in order to distribute their nonsense just like the moonies, Hare Krishnas and BKs. Full on cult mode.

you probably do have some perfectly legitimate talking points for discussion with jws if they come back- re homosexuality being banned by them etc
Yes Ruby if they left leaflets or magazines disparaging homosexuality displayed in public this would be a hate incident according to British county councils.

It was a small leaflet on my door that got me in at the vulnerable age of 14.
Exactly VI one leaflet is all it takes and a lot of vulnerable people use public libraries. I also destroy the Watchtowers they sneak onto our shelves of new books without asking our permission.
I've seen them sitting in a chair watching these shelves presumably to swoop on anyone who picks them up. I wonder how long they count their time doing that.
I also throw the Brahma Kumaris leaflets away.
this thread is inspired by a beloved poster who said he managed to sleep all through yesternight.. how about you, do you sleep through the night?.
each morning, around 2 am, it's as if a hand shakes me awake.. i became accustomed to arising at that time to take care of my semi-invalid mother.. she passed nearly 12 years ago, but my body?
mind?
Lol Sylvia I chose that name because I enjoyed reading Plato. It helped me to see that people debated how to be a good person 500 years before Jesus was born. Also I could see where Paul got that dialectic style from.
