  A Techno-phobe seeks advice.

  by Phizzy in

  this may seem simple to all you young folks(under 50) out there, but this old fart is just wondering, how much can people see on facebook in the way of comments, if you have privacy up and running so that, i thought, only those you have friended can see what you comment ?.

  i am not overly bothered, but it occurs to me that since in recent times i have been more active on fb, my outspoken comments against the jw scam may be visible to those who are not actually "friends" ???.

  i am just wondering if i should expect (as in monty python) the spanish inquisition ?.

  Don't forget that even if people don't directly see your comments, those that can may always take a screen cap of what you wrote.

  Basically, when you post on FB, you have to assume the entire world can see it.

  A MAN OF GREAT TASTE__A short story by Terry Edwin Walstrom

  a man of great taste.

  (a short story by terry edwin walstrom).

  the turnoff from the main highway had possibly been the only sane choice for cal hector and his 48 ford woodie station wagon.. the endless roadway, straight as the edge of a ruler, sprawled due west into the evenings red sun, blinding him to oncoming traffic.

  Do US JWs Still Knock on Doors?

  by cultBgone in

  this may sound like a silly question, but do jws even door-knock any more?

  the few i know only speak of "manning the cart" at some public location, and because they get defensive if i even ask an innocent question like this i thought i'd ask it on the forum.

  thanks!.

  The amount of territory they cover is going to vary greatly by region and congregation. Some still cover their territory every few weeks and some do it once or twice a year.

  Regardless there is absolutely no question at all that door to door is THE WORST method in the year 2015. Anyone under the age 0f 65 doesn't give a fuck about what two people knocking at the door have to say. Magazines and books just end up in the trash.

  JW Elder Lawsuit Update: AAWA Fliers are Illegal and Uncle claims he is "Going to Kill us in Court"!

  by ReligionOfHatred in

  hi, my uncle made the first move by taking my mom, dad, grandma and grandpa(all in good jws in standing and non have put out anti-jw fliers or speech), that's who he is taking to court.

  i have left the organization but than again, i was only a unbaptized publisher.

  my grandma (whom i love so dearly was shocked to learn "i am not going to marry a pioneer and i don't want anything to do with any pro-jw females, i feel this religion is one of the most hateful religions mankind has seen).

  monday is a holiday.......so a super zealous brother asks me....."are you going out in service then?.

  absolutely the last thing i would want to do!.

  if i do go again ever, i think my presentation should be " i'm so sorry for ever bothering you with the absolute crap we're handing out.

  The service overseer in my last congregation actually wouldn't go out on holidays because he knew it just pissed off householders more than usual. He was right on that one. I suspect the CO talked to him because he doesn't do that anymore.

  JW Threatened me with Violence Today :)

  i popped into the supermarket for a few things after work today and found myself walking up an aisle alongside a couple who used to be in my tuesday group.

  i see them reasonably often and always say hello much to their obvious annoyance.

  i noticed that ian was sporting a shaggy beard.

  VA shooting suspect was raised a JW! He mentions it on his Twitter account

  by WingCommander in

  anyone in the usa following this morning's shooting "on-air" live tv will know what i'm talking about.

  bryce williams (not real name, but on-air name) shot and killed 2 people on live television this morning in roanoke, va. he was wearing a go-pro camera, and uploaded his first-person video onto his social media accounts.

  i've seen his twitter feed (before it was taken down), and not very far down he mentions being raised a jw.

  Nothing like a shooting committed by someone tenuously linked to the WTS to bring out the gun nuts
