  Ouija Board Hysteria

  i always wondered why jw's were always so afraid of ouija(pronounced as "wee-yaw" not "wee-gee") boards.

  does anyone have any speculation about who started these jw myths?.

  anyone who has actually tried the board and would like to give their opinions are welcome.

  I tried it with some friends a few years ago. One of them had apparently had some previous success. It was hilarious, just like Blithe Spirit with our own Madame Arcati! Nothing happened. I think our friend was normally aided by drugs, and on this occasion our fun was merely fuelled by Cheeky Vimtos. It was fun transgressing another JW taboo.

  The Dublin "apostasy" after Ray Franz incident - searching for the audio testimony of John May

  by Nostromo in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  google is not my friend anymore, it seems, i cant find a thing.. i was searching for the audio file where john may, the elder from dublin, tells his story when he traveled to brooklyn to find out the truth about the ray franz incident.

  i do not mean the talk of his that you can find on 4jehovah.org or 4witness.org, this was a different audio testimony where he just basically tells what happened to him and to his irish elder friend merriman when they wanted to discuss the rf issue with the gb.

  i had this file once but cant find it anymore.

  apologies if I was incorrect. I knew one of his relatives back in the mid nineties and he was in touch with him. The longer I'm out the more nebulous the details get. Hurrah!!

  what is your myers-briggs personality type?

  if you're unfamiliar with it, you can take a test here: http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp.

  be warned that the test can be wildly inaccurate.

  Ach Paul, I just had you pegged as a Perth wide boy and it turns out you're more interesting than that! Which island(s) did you live on? I've got a pal just back from Bernaray and utterly obsessed about buying a blackhouse that's come on the market.
