i have been thinking a bit on this topic and came up with a question.

Your right. I was a lurker for awhile before I took the plunge and signed up. I feel that there are people that visit this site "lurk" a bit glean some info and move on. On the other hand they just might sign up and become a member of this forum.
It also wouldn't surprise me if dubs visited this site to see if they can figure out who the posters are. I remember how nosy some in the org are. Always looking for a chance to trip you up or get you in trouble. Not really spies but troublemakers IMO.
I was thinking mostly about spies in NY or in other branches throughout the world. I think it is possible but as to whether it has happened I don't know.
I know I would feel sorry for the poor sap that got the assignment though.lol

I guess I am a bit paranoid..lol. I was thinking that with all the scandals rocking the religious groups today that governments may take a closer look in their own backyard when it comes to religious groups.
Thanks for your reply Prisca:)

I feel that they can and probably have to some extent. I of course have no proof of this but it makes sense that they keep track of what the religious groups are doing.

What's The Worst Thing a "Friend" Could Ever Do To You?
by minimus ineveryone thinks they have a friend or even many friends.
have you ever come to know that your "friend" was really no friend after all?
what happened??

Wolfy
I can relate to this question.. I had a so-called good friend turn me in to the elders about something I had done years before. We had been talking about some of the crazy stuff we had done in the past. I get a call a couple days later from an elder in his hall. I had a JC of 5 elders and ended up getting put on reproof.
To this day he doesn't understand why I want nothing to do with him. I have a couple close friends. I have learned that you still have to be careful about what you say even to your best friends.

Did you pioneer?
by JH indid you ever pioneer in your congregation?
i was an aux.
pioneer 4 or 5 months a year when my seasonal job was over.

I was a regular auxillary pioneer for 6 months or so. I full-time pioneered for a year and it was hell. I was pressured to be the "good example" and so of course I did.
Yup..I just loved taking the group in the morning and no one show up. I loved getting chewed out for not having a BS(when the CO came to visit) or not "selling" enough mags. I loved being out until 11 at night so I could make my "time" for the month. I loved it when I had to go door to door while my friends spent the summer at the beach and partying.
The list goes on of course. When I look back it saddens me that I was once so blind and that I had wasted so much time working for this "cult".
Being a JW has caused me alot of pain and sadness

It would be my Grandfather. He was from China and saw his family killed. Long story...:(. He was always asking if I still belonged to that crazy religion. He was a smart man and I miss him very much.
In the present it would be my wife and childrenThey mean the world to me.
