so yesterday i stopped by my sisters home and decided to just hang out and shoot the breeze... she was telling me that since she has stopped going to the kingdom hall (the last 9 months) she still looks for things to do on sunday.
she feels she should go and do something and she likes the idea of church.
it seems fun and will giove her a place to meet people.

i'm working on a short story/novella about a jw family.
it's called the opal ring.
i will be posting it in installments, and would like some feedback on it.
Julia... Would you mind "fleshing" out this Bro Wanker/Wanis. I would like to know what "a really horrible man that I could imagine" is like, through your eyes.
If it is too personal, would you mind PMing me?
Thank you so much.
I enjoy your stories.

i have come to the conclusion that posting here and visiting this site is not healthy for me anymore.
i just get angry and upset when i read all the stories of injustice and corruption that go on in the jehovahs witness religion.
they are true no doubt, as i have personally experienced many injustices and abuses in my life from being a witness.

telling innocent people they can live forever when armegeddons never coming.
telling people they can see their loved ones again.
telling people to sacrafice their goals and dreams in life.
You asked how can someone possibly know they are of the Anointed, anyway?
Batman89----->>> Let's Play The Kingdom Hall Game
Positions available:
Low man on the ladder... Publisher aka Rank and File. You don't get noticed, but you are expected to be at all the meetings, field service, look up to all the Elder's, use your car in service and donate, whatever you have. That is what most of the 7 million JW seat warmers are.
Next position... Aux . Pio ---> Gets you some attention. If the Elder's like you, you don't really have to get your time in.
Regular Pioneer... Yes. It does give you KHall Brownie points.
Ministerial Servant... known politely as Mic Holder. It does have advantages if you like looking down sister's fronts. The Elder's always dump whatever they don't want to do, on their shoulders. Lawn mowing anyone... Bruler ???
Elder's... What a power trip to be on the platform by yourself and the R&F look up at you in rapt attention. Heady stuff, I am sure. Circuit Assembly's and Regional Conventions equates power and that you have "made" it in WT Land. Also, you get your very own copy of the Elder's Handbook. Yippee!
------->>> Now comes The Special One, also known as the person who partakes. They are baptized, look around, try to figure out how to be noticed, how to stand out, how to be special. Low man on the ladder, no fun. To profess to be of the Anointed, used to be an honorary position at the KHall, not anymore. But, unless the GB decided, cult like at Memorial time, to use their big screen TV's, to record themselves, so that all over the world, JW's can watch the GB give the talk, prayers, and partake, the Anointed Elder's will still give the Memorial talk.
Village Girl I do agree that Jehovah's Wtnesses are a man made up religion, that twist scriptures to their own beliefs.
Personally, if I was invited somewhere and they passed me a glass of wine and some crackers, I would decide at the moment, whether I wanted some or not.
To answer your question, between you and me.... ( crickets )

it's been a while since i've posted anything about myself.
i've been on jwn for a couple of years.
my leaving the organization was not because i lost my faith, but i left because of my faith.
From your great-great Grandfather, to you. He started with Russell in the 1890's and you finished it and shut the door on the WT for your family line.
Bravo! Well done!
I wish you every happiness in the journey of your life.

hello there i am new to the faith and have been studying for about a month.
i am very excited and hungry for the truth and have not missed a meeting or study since the memorial.
we do about 2 bible studies a week.
Designer Stubble, I went over to your site, and saw that, yes, Miss J, is asking the same questions, the same format.
After I posted, sincerely to her, I got the impression that she is a troll. A WT troll.
----->> If I was bored at Bethel, maybe working in the IT department, why not start a thread on JWN and see how many JWN'er's take the bait, and answer.
What kind of wager would I do with my buddies? If I say, who will bet me I can get 3 pages of replies... Who will bet me $10.00? There will be someone who might say I will take that bet. If you get 5 pages, I will give you $50.00, anything less, nothing.
Right now it is up to 7 pages. BINGO. In my book, "Miss J" made herself/himself $50.00.

Interested Observer... When it says Lender, none, does that mean The International Bible Students (WT JW.org) bought this property with cash?
(I was just on your site. Thanks).

i lost count somewhere after the 3rd time.

What are roaches? Cockroaches fell out of your pocket?? Are condoms called roaches???
I can sort of see, if you have condoms fall out of your pocket at the KHall, but that is no proof you were using them...
I don't understand why the sisters were kissing on you???
