I am a proud, patriotic American. I vote and pay taxes, and proudly recite the pledge of allegiance each month at my union meeting. I also contact my congressman when I want to have my say.

is voting important to you?
are you supportive of your country?.

by minimus inif we haven’t associated with the congregation in years, could it be said we are not jws?

The last meeting I attended was 1983, no FS time reported, never go to meetings, no assemblies, no memorial either. I understand they keep your record card on file forever. Am I still “technically” a witness? I don’t know or care.

Maybe if they passed out kool aid, everyone drank. No poison, just plain kool aid. Then telling everyone who drank, it was a test of loyalty.

at some point, the people whose re-ligions were destroyed may resent thefact that jehovah’s witnesses keep prac-ticing their religion.
we can only imag-ine the uproar that this might create, in-cluding on social media.

I graduated a whole year early, age 16. Got all A’s and B’s and never brought a book home. Consistently made the honor roll. Parents told me not to even THINK about going to college. 3 days after graduation, had a full time job. I refused to pioneer, I hated service for the few hours I put in, not up for daily torture.
