  You are a sweetie.I luv ya too!
  It does get difficult after being slammed so much by trolls. I understand where you're coming from,and I see you understand where Im coming from-and that's a good thing(wink)
  AS you said ,time will tell.....Im basing my premise on 'past behavior being a good indicator of future behavior'......and I would love to be proved wrong here.
  Thanks for the kind words sis,much appreciated!luv,Tina

  Why We Come Here... or Go There.... or Don't..

  greetings to all... and may you have peace!.

  the answer is quite simple: we are a 'social' species, albeit some of us prefer socializing a bit more than others.

  and some quite a bit more than others.

  American / European Incomprehension.

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  reading through some of the posts re the mcveigh debate, it's obvious that there is a huge divide between the usa and europe over many issues, in particular with reference to the way that society should deal with deviants.. i think that there is a lot of other cultural differences between our societies, and i'm just wondering if this is why the wtbts has had a far higher "conversion factor" in the usa than in europe.. some of the phraseology contained in the watchtower magazines is incomprehensible to europeans.

  i remember that words that are in common usage now, were, when first used in the wt, totally baffling.. the expression "no way" wasn't in common use until years after the wt featured it, like wise with "points up", also "right on" meant nothing to anyone.

  indeed, many return visits to placed magazine householders resulted in them asking a bewildered dub for an explanation of these then strange terms.

  I'm not so quick to jump on a welcome bandwagon here for this reason.

  Seems like Americans have more wacky religions,because it's such an evangelical culture.
  The phrases the wts uses are usually archaic anyway. Most people don't even speak that way here. Part of the 'conformity' they use.
  Take care.luv,Tina

  Troubled teen? or pretender?

  by wasasister in

  last night in chat, just as i was about to log off and go to bed, a person unknown to me came in.

  i did not recognize the name, so i introduced myself.

  with me in chat was another new person, who identified him/her-self as a 19 yr old da'd person on the east coast (us).. after the initial introductions, the new person stated he/she was a therapist working with a troubled 15 yr old witness girl who wanted to quit the religion over the objections of her mother.
