I too was excited when they came out with the varicella vac. But that didn't protect my sons from getting the chickenpox, and they both had the vac twice also.

I was talking to my neighbor about the flu shot (he has two daughters in elementary school). The bad thing about getting the flu shot in August (this is when school starts here), it will be a hit and miss thing, because at that month they do not know which strain of flu will be the one affecting people. Those were his words.

Before anyone calls me one of those people who are against vac, this is not the case. Both my children had all the required vacs. I'm just opposed to forcing people to get the flu shot, from my own personal experience with it.

Send the state of Massachusetts the hospital and or funeral bill for those who have issues with the Flu vac. also the bill for lost wages for those who do get ill from this poison.

For any who say aren't you being a bit extreme on this, the flu vac. nearly killed me.

How do I find a woman who is a Jehovah's Witness during COVID-19 Pandemic?

by Silkythefresh in

hello there, fellow believers!

i'm here today to talk about something that has been bothering my mind and my heart.

i truly want to find a woman who knows jehovah's name and worships him.

You said you are 16, don't worry about finding that special some whom you are going to spend the rest of your life with. I say this because what appeals to you now, won't when you are 25. This pandemic won't last forever, eventually, it will pass, pandemics always do.

Just wanted to say one little thing, I did not meet my husband at any congregation meeting, nor assembly. At the time we lived in two different congregations in two different states, Neither of us was looking for that special someone.

GB teaching - Gays and Lesbians will be resurrected as Gays and Lesbians

by Listener in

the final talk of the saturday afternoon online convention is given by lett, sporting a creepy looking combover, which for some reason, looks creepier than normal.

he talks about how those resurrected will need to come into line with a new moral code otherwise they will be destroyed.

he uses an example of gay people having to turn away from their inclinations even though they may feel that they are perfectly acceptable.. this demonstrates that the gb feel that being gay is a taught behaviour rather than an imperfect unnatural desire, otherwise they would be growing out of that desire as they develop towards perfection, as they teach.

I'm extremely happy that I left those nutters when I did. They're bonkers if I say so.

Remember Daisy, the BB Gun? Some early history

by FatFreek 2005 in

i was still a jw at the time and my four boys were always anxious for me to bring home a daisy product.

i did just that during a weekend for a lab tryout.

ha!

My husband's uncle used to work for Daisy until he retired.

Are You Afraid of Contracting The Covid Virus?

thankfully my best friend who got this terrible malady is doing well after being in the hospital for more than two months!

i see some people who are still petrified over this virus.

they are still virtual prisoners in their own homes.

Tameria2001

No, I figure when my time is up, it's up. But seriously at first, I was a little freaked out by it, but now just wish this thing would get behind us. I don't use hand sanitizer, never have, never will, I've absorbed too many chemicals when I use to be a JW janitor. Now it is just old fashion soap and water, and only the mask when I have to enter a public business because it is mandatory where I live. And before someone goes on about the high-risk folks, I am what they would call high risk.

My letter of disassociation, what do you think?

by James Jack in

dear brothers, july 27, 2020. in 1919, the president of the watchtower society made a bold prediction, “millions now living will never die”.

that quotation was constantly repeated by the organization till the year 2000 when they realized that everyone in attendance at that assembly, who listened to j.r. rutherford repeat those words, are dead.. that teaching has guided my life.

statements were repeatedly made at assemblies, conventions and in print that there was no career in “this system of things” so you don’t need a job with benefits or retirement, your fulltime job is to “preach the good news”!

@LongHairGal,

I did send my JW relatives a heads up before the announcement was made, but it didn't make any difference. They still chose the lies that were spilled and even made up a few of their own. Learned this through other relatives who were not JWs.

There is nothing wrong with writing a letter, in fact, it is quite therapeutic, but I wouldn't recommend sending it. They will not read it past the point they realize what you are saying. By sending in a letter of disassociation you are allowing them to have power over your life. My husband and I both disassociated ourselves back in 2001. After we left we were treated just like a person who was disfellowshiped, including having our names slandered. If I could do it all over again, I would have just walked away, never to return. If any did attempt to "encourage" me to return, I would politely say I'm not interested anymore. Never put anything down on paper that can be used against you. During this time of the "pandemic", it is very easy to just slip away.

From reddit...How old were you when you became a publisher?

by Biahi in

i was six, not given any choice.

i remember being in the old kh, and my dad told me the brothers wanted to talk to me in the back...i was terrified.

i actually thought they knew i didn’t want to be a dub, my dad told them to just add me as a publisher, so no back room meeting.

Tameria2001

I was 17. My folks bounced around a lot when I was growing up. Dad was never a JW, but mom became one when I was quite young, and half of the time she was inactive, and the other half she was all zealous for it.

I just watched No Safe Spaces Recomend this to all

by wolverines in

this is a great movie.

it documents how dangerous the left is.

its on the verge of destroying the country.

Tameria2001

I agree with woiverines. My son who is in the military called me not very long ago and informed me that I need to purchase more guns and ammo. He couldn't go into any more than that.
