my parents were of the "you're gonna get it when we get home" class. I got a few spankings at the KH but I had it pretty easy compared to some.

Kingdom Hall Spankings
by JH inmost meetings i went to, children were brought to the washrooms in the back to be disciplined.
often i could hear a child yell or cry due to the spanking given by the parent.
people in the hall would have that look on their face meaning that it was alright to discipline a child by spanking him.

Did you cheat on your monthly report?
by JH ini was always honest with my field service reports, until the time when an elder came over to give me hell because i had only 1 hour that month in the field service.
i told him that i was working 50 hours a week, had a 4 day district convention that month and couldn't do miracles that month.
he never accepted my explanation.. .

I used to guesstimate and I'm pretty sure I always gave myself the benefit of the doubt.

i am in the process of reestablishing my credit so i know what a pain bad credit can be. if you are in college they give away student credit cards to pretty much anyone, thats how i messed up my credit, but if you are smart with them they can really help you.

God is a plagarist
by RunningMan ini was doing a little research into some of the bible stories that originated from other sources.
i was aware that many of the bible myths, such as the story of moses, the flood, solomon's wisdom, and the queen of sheba are simply copies of myths or stories borrowed from other cultures.
but, i was surprised to learn that portions of the bible are actually direct quotations from other writings.

LT, i thought you were still a devout christian post jw, maybe i havent read enough of your posts but i do enjoy them all. oh that is beside the point of the thread, which i find intersting but not surprising since i am very cynical of all religions.

Hands up those who don't give a rats arse about religion / spirituality.
by Holey_Cheeses*King_of_the juice. in.
is it just me, or there others who have no room for religion in their lives?.
i appreciate that others are entitled to their beliefs and opinions concerning such beliefs, but i am amazed at the number of posters, who, after years of being oppressed and mislead by religion, still manage to garner some sense from the whole notion of god / religion / spirituality.. cheeses the cynic.

Religion, IMO, was an invention designed to keep the masses in check and it has worked beautifully dont you think.
So yeah I dont give a rat's arse about religion.

by El Kabong inwhat are some of the foods you remember being served at district and circuit assemblies.

My earliest memories of WT assemblies are of the food and the dramas. I really liked the food when I was little, the breaded chicken sandwiches and the burritos were my fav. I remember one time at a circuit assembly they had mcdonalds food. And a couple of times we had really good puerto rican food, like a giant potluck or something. In the Spanish district/circuit where I was they didnt make too big of a deal about people leaving for lunch. I do remember the tickets, my mom would give me a book of 10$ for the three days. I dodnt know if this happened everywhere but at our assemblies people would start forming a line even before the session ended. funny memories.

if you are a good squad leader your squad will hate you if you are a bad one you will feel the wrath of your drill instructor for everyone's mistakes. but since you are not really in basic yet that might not be true, I would avoid leadership postions in basic. it didnt help anyone i know, they were just the most hated people in tech school.
