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.

Met JWs today - they lied about who they were
by Xanthippe inso 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.

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.

Sleep Habits
by snowbird inthis 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.

I sleep really well thank you. On holiday I have been known to sleep the clock around, twelve hours.

Or if you were concerned that your confiscating her leaflet could come back and bite you
I'm not, I know our guidelines for vetting leaflets. She lied to me and apart from accusing her of being a liar the only thing I could do was accept the leaflet with a smile. The final decision is ours anyway. Find it odd that so many people seem to be becoming JW apologists here.

They were trying to suck people into a cult. These leaflets were from the Borg. Nothing on them about learning sign language. Deceiving them as to who they were. Can you supply a link to JW sign language association Ruby? I can't find one LOL sweetie.
