Today was my family gathering, I just got back a few minutes ago. My JW sister was there also. When she got there, she would sit beside me several times. Not quite sure how to handle it, I did not speak to her. I did not want to give her the chance to show off and do the shunning bit. I pretended that I did not see her. After about 2 or 3 hours later, this was still going on. She would look at me, but not say a word, but she would sit right next to me or right across from me. So I said to my self, "Oh what the heck." And started talking to her. To my amazement, she smiled and started conversing with me. I was tempted to asked her a couple of JW questions, but I decided against it. Any way we talked for nearly an hour and a half before I had to leave.
Oh yes, I did make a point to tell all my relatives there that Dateline will be talking about the JW, gave them the day and time. They all said they are going to watch it. I did not tell them what it is about, though. I'll let them make up their own minds about it.
I almost forgot, they did see the flags on my shirt, and they did see my husband smoking (which was a first for them).

Dateline May 28th at 8:00 p.m.
by writerpen ini checked the nbc time line for shows on may 28th and they have dateline listed as running at 8:00 p.m. est.
that evening with the nba game following.
normally dateline runs at 10:00 p.m. on tuesday, but they must have changed it for the game.

I checked out my local tv listings and Dateline will be on earler that night. I live in Kansas and my local tv schedule says that it will be on at 7 pm (central), and then there will be a ball game one afterwards. I think for any one NOT to miss it, it would be best to check your own local listing.

I would defantly say HELL NO. When my mom first became a dub, she would try to study with me. I would have no part of it, and I was only 5. As an adult, I know I would have done research on it, if I was later contacted by them. That is just part of my nature. Beside I love the holidays too much, I even did when I was a child. Actually my grandma's religion intrested me more than my mom's.

Talking about destroying the earth with all the paper. A question one must ask themselves is this: Do you really think God will allow such a group to inherit the earth if they are destroying it now?

The key to leaving: there is no difference.
by joelbear inwhat is the key to leaving the witnesses?
seeing that there is no real difference between them as a group and any other religious group.. they claim difference and preach difference, but they do not live and practice difference.. oh yes, they will tell you, we don't vote, we don't do this, we don't do that, but get to know them as people and you find out they have political leanings and they pretty much live just like everyone else.. so, basically, their claim to being god's chosen people is just that, their claim.
they have no proof to back it up.

They are the same people who thinks the end of all the (and their) problems is God killing almost everyone off at Armageddon. Take for example my JW sister- For some reason we had gotten on the subject of AIDS and Africa. We got to talking about how many people have gotten it and have either died, living with it, or are affected by it. I told her, that I heard on the TV how some countries over there have been really affected alot. One of the first things she said was, "I'll be glad when Amageddon comes, that will fix the problem." So I thought to my self fixing the problem, by wiping out people. Won't there be more people dead that way? I have seen photos of death and destruction. It is not a pretty site. But that is what she is looking forward...MORBID. Her solution to the problem is to kill every one off.

Here are some ones I can think of. Sorry if I have repeated any that was already mentioned.
Get the odor of lets say some one who is speaking on the plat form. Then take a bunch of blood hounds and release them.
Release a bunch of pigions indoors. Or a bunch of cats. Or may be doing this all at the same time.
I almost forgot. Don't forget the skunks.
