  by avishai in

  i've had people point, make comments under their breath, give me dirty looks, after i was declared "bad association"(because even though i still was going in service, i refused to turn in a timecard.

  )

  usually its because of jealousy, i think they envy that you no longer have to go door to door or stand around street corners wearing a suit in 90

  degree weather. you dont have to try and place literature evertime you conversate with normal people. you no longer have to bs and lie and

  dupe people and be afraid of everything and avoid everthing and sneak around etc. you are free of it and you can do whatever you want with no

  one spying on you or tattling. when they yell they are just jealous of you. dont even turn your head to see whos saying it. know that its

  someone mentally challenged.

  "Jehovah's Witnesses Really Don't Love People, Do They?"

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this was a comment that was made to me when i expressed that witnesses shun or disfellowship people and refuse to have any normal contact with them, or that they "mark" them and give a public speech about ones that even date a non-jehovah's witness.

  after the statement was made, i stated that witnesses were more interested in numbers such as how many knocked on doors or went to a meeting......................it is a sad but true commentary.

  after stopping a study elders and other witnesses told me god was going to kill me for leaving. I said well not today.

  one minute they were so nice then they were sneering and going down lists of all the fun things im allowing to get between me and god.

  i said i will continue to study the bible just not with you. im not leaving god im just leaving you. hey were like he's gonna kill you with all the rest t armageddon.

  i said no he wont ,i know you want him to but he wont.

  ok, just catching a little snippet of matt lauer's interview of madonna right now.

  a few things come to mind.drop the fake ass british accentamerica is not interested in a "spiritual" pop starkaballah is just another religion, regardless of your argument that it is not.

  (doesn't everyone say that their religion is not a "religion" but the "truth.

  i think it is stupid to look at any celebrity or pop icon as a role model thats just retarded.

  they are in the public spotlight for the money they create a fake persona, life style ,creed etc for the money.

  it is not their responsibility to be a role model for anyones child. there are alot stars that however choose to be role models

  but remember at some point people have differing opinions about what is and is not acceptable lifestyle for a role model.

  people forget at some point you have to teach children to be their own person and these public role models have a right to be themselves good and bad. you cannot follow each and every single thing someone does and clone your life after it.

  i love madonna and as long as she lives she will be a star and taken care of by the public. We grew up with her and watched her go from village groupie to wwstardom.

  i dont want to have sex with him. there are literaly hundreds of young beautiful strapping men single men that i could fornicate with if thats what i wanted but it was really strange for him to do that. so far ive been peering around the corners before i turn them and looking around everywhere i go. i mentioned this to a male friend of mine who wanted to know where to find the bastard as he put it. so i think if he comes around again or is at my study my friend will come along from now on and i will have him talk to this brother on the spot.

  perhaps i should just study with another religion, or take a course in a university.

  i skipped my study last week. no im not studying with him i study with two sisters but some times one cannot make it.

  he was invited a few times and we were talking about the world and relationships and immorality. I got the feeling they were trying to find out what type i am if iam active sexually, clean or what. So of course i don't want to look immoral so i say no i don't sleep around i find guys my age are stupid and don't care about relationships just sex. I told them i d prefer older men meaning more mature but this guy has to be in his late fifties.

  when he comes to the studies he is enthusiastic, very attentive, sort of emotional and just has an exciting way of talking about the bible stories. so obviously he knows where i live and regulary witnesses in my neighborhood i think.

  He did call me which was strange i try to think what the hell did i say or do to make him think i was so loose and immoral.

  on the study we talked in depth about all the different types of people have different preferences that are immoral acts or considered fornication.

  i think i said too much. i know a great deal about what is in the world because i read and i know people that are living and working in the sex world. i guess i never thought he would be tempted being who he is. He knew many things himself for a bethelite.

  Do Dubs believe In Arranged Marriages?

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i recall that they once advocated arranged marriages.

  this would be in the 60's when they were having a phase of dire warnings about the suitability of marriage partners.

  during this phase, many odd ideas surfaced.

  i hear reports that they dangle goodlooking brothers in front of sisters who fall in love with them then snatch them away telling them they are already engaged or married. then the sister all pent up and ready for marriage has anumber of brothers thrust at her and to escape scandal of trying to steal someone elses boyfriend when they put him in front of her to begin with she just picks one she hardly knows and is quite bitter.

  the bible says we are obligated to care for our families regardless of what they believe. i know that they the jws will have families put their teenage children out in to the street if they don't obey watchtower.
