  Counting time

  by Emma in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i may not have put this in the correct spot, but i do think it's scandalous the way time gets counted now.

  i've seen a cart at the edge of our farmer's market, never anyone close enough to talk.

  yesterday was a drizzly day and there were two carts set up, covered in plastic, "witnessing" on their own.

  Great picture Emma!

  While chatting with my sister a couple of months ago, (we don't speak very often as she's an innie) she'd mentioned she's been working at the airport. Went on about how fun it was, talking to people from all over the world, directing them to different service areas and suggesting things to do in the area etc... Also how nice to be working indoors, out of the summer heat. And how enjoyable it was, joking around with staff between flights. (Usually 45 min to an hour in between, as it's a smaller airport)

  My response was "I'm happy for you, sounds fun!" Then, last week she called me for a favor, which is the ONLY time we speak lol. I asked her how her new job was going (I had assumed she worked some type of information desk) She asked surprisingly "Job??"

  I responded "Yes, at the airport" She was like "No, silly! That's my assigned area for cart work!!" <aghast face>

  Things you'd never read in the Bible

  mock the week is a british improvised, satirical celebrity panel show, like whose line is it anyway?

  performers deliver answers on unexpected subjects on the spur of the moment.

  i found it quite funny and thought i would pass it along.

  Anthony Morris III Autobiography ... The Real Truth

  by Wild_Thing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the watchtower published anthony morris iii's autobiography last year ... "remembering my first love has helped me to endure" by anthony morris iii.

  i absolutely cannot believe how quickly he became a jehovah's witness.

  in the span of less than a year, he attended his first meeting, studied, got baptized, became a pioneer, and married a jw girl.

  Guide to Helping Other Break Free

  by LisaRose in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have come up with a guide to helping others break free of the watchtower, based loosely on steve hassan's book, combatting cult mind control and incorporating experiences of other jwn posters who have been successful in helping their family leave the watchtower.

  i posted an earlier draft of this and got some great feedback.

  here is the final version with some additional information and incorporating many of your suggestions.

  What Religion Are You?

  by choosing life in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know a lot of posters are not religious and others feel no need to attend a church.

  but, for those that do attend somewhere, i was curious as to what type of church they chose after leaving the jws and what attracted them to that particular church or religion?

  if you were not raised as a jw, did you return to the church you were raised in?
