i left in the 90's and marriage partners were similar in age at my former congregation.

i ran into a former jw friend from my childhood.

i haven't seen him in 15 years.

yes friends.....this is the comment said to me by an elder!.

"your bad attitude is evident because you don't bring your meeting bag anymore!".

Having tablets legal at meetings is so cool, .....all ya gotta do is sit between two elderly elders and play pac-man ....and they both will totally think your lookin up scriptures, n stuff..

Has anybody been guilted/emotionally blackmailed into attending the 2015 Memorial?

by Bucholz in

hello everybody, i was wondering if anyone has been guilted or emotionally blackmailed into attending the memorial this year.

something along the lines of "if you loved your family you would at least attend the memorial".

i myself haven't attended in 5 years.

brandnew

Its so funny to see alot of people who only show up once a year , freely speak with all the witnesses, while all along like me ....been to every meeting this year, and cant say hi to anyone.

Hypocritical ???????....yes.
