They speak in hushed tones about the latest Trek/Wars movies coming out..careful not to "reccomend" them officially because after all, they may be pg-13.

They snuck out late at night to see the R rated Matrix.

The Star Trek technical manual is carefully hidden in their bookbags to kill time during those long return visits...

They secretly believe that the new system will contain Ewoks.

Have you ever had a "part" in an assembly?

well guys, i've been part of this discussion group for about two weeks and i must say it's been really fun!

i always look forward to reading everyone's thoughts on so many different topics.. i grew up in the troof, so needless to say it was a major part of my life.

my whole childhood was engulfed in meetings, field service, book study, bible study, watchtower study.

Huxley

I always wanted to be in a "Biblical times" drama. Mostly so I could have a Sword and a Beard. The twin forbidden fruits...

recommend a book

by DanTheMan in

any book that you like.. i am particularly interested in reading some good non-fiction.. crisis of conscience tops my recommendations, i think it is one of the best books i've ever read.

but you don't have to recommend apostate books.. currently i am enjoying dale carnegie's how to win friends and influence people.

i am enjoying it and trying to take the advice to heart - namely, don't be so negative!.

anybody an idea what they are this year?.

Huxley

I heard it from an unreliable source (my imagination) that rather than books, they are going to release some collectable dolls.

Paul and Barnabus... pull the string on their back and watch them bicker!

also being released, the "Lot and his daughters" action figure playset.

Imagine If The Watchtower Apologzed For Their Sins

by minimus in

one thing that is commonly brought up is how the society has made so many mistakes and uttered so many false prophecies.

i just wonder what would happen if the watchtower ever came out and asked forgiveness for their sins and asked to start a clean slate.

(you know, like the pope did a couple of years ago).

Huxley

To all congregations:

Sorry for screwing up your lives. You are all free to go.

Introduction

by Hope_ful in

i have been "lurking" (my apologies to anyone who is irritated or offended by that) for some time now.

i was raised as a jw - i had the dubious honor of being a presiding overseer's daughter.

my little bro and i were perfect little dubs (or is it "duds" ?!

Huxley

WELCOME!

Nice to hear your story. This board is a really nice place to be.

I lurked for a few weeks as well, and was pleasantly surprised to find out that not everyone who has a beef with the witnesses is a bitter, hate-filled monster. (As a lot of us were raised to believe!)

This board has such a diverse group of people with a multitude of different ideas, attitudes, and opinions.

I think you will really enjoy being here.
