They take off like a turkey in a corn field. They are afraid to look me straight in the eye.
It took me years to get to this point, they have no power over me anymore and they can
sense that.

it's 6 months since i da'd and two and a half years since i've been to a meeting.
there was a witness there (unless she has left, i wouldn't know) we made eye contact!

i was straddling the fence on that one, just in case they were right.
i don't recall.
telling anyone this is your last chance.
Phizzy: good for you
Londo 111: "Society never said 1975", but a lot of people ran ahead and no
one was told them you guys are not teaching truth.
Slidin Fast: I wonder when did the GB realize the R&F was out preaching speculation?
They were also waiting to see if it was BS.
i live between two cities that are big enough to have their own metropolitan trolley cart arrangements organised at circuit level.
the 3 congregations at the hall i attend have trolley schedule noticeboards.
i see trolleys in the high streets and markets locally.
The wife took a picture yesterday of two sisters with their cart. The problem is
the location. There is NO walking traffic and one of the sisters didn't look in
good health, she looked to weigh between 300-400 pounds. She was soaking wet.

umdertoecho: they told a BIG lie and they shun you.
freddo: so many brothers gave up good jobs, homes and common sense.

william: I can understand those of you who were young at the time, your parents or
older men in the congregation wouldn't lie to you, right.
blondie: That's is what my mom kept telling my sister. LOL

prologos: also moved where the need is great, but I learned a new trade so
it worked out good for me.

telling anyone this is your last chance. My sister went to my mom and told her, you
have one year to become a JW. My ex- told her folks the same thing. I guess Jehovahs
spirit wasn't working on me, because I still had some doubts. Thankful no one has ever
told me, didn't you tell me back in 1974 we wouldn't be here today.
You think one would be embarrassed, credibility down the tube.
just wanted to post here real quick, as many have joked about it.
we had an announcement in our cong last week about the upcoming one day assembly.
the title of the assembly is "imitate jehovah".
Someone else's journey(especially Jehovah) may not always be applicable to yours
because we each have different circumstances, resource and strengths. Furthermore
in an ever dynamic world, conditions are seldom identical for two people.
We know the bible don't accurately document Jehovah's ways, at one point he is
out of control (OT) and then in the NT he tell us to love our enemies. So which of
the two are we suppose to imitate.
within the past couple of days, women in nyc are going around topless in public.
i read in a news article, that in new york city, there are no laws against women going topless in public.the article says that family people are getting offended and they want to stop topless women in public.
in europe women show their breasts on on tv, the beach, and breast feeding in public.
Think about it, in the 50's you were lucky to see a woman thigh, the
70's the mini-skirts , when was the last time you went to the beach.
Holy sh--t there is nothing left to the imagination. Some folks believe there
will be mass rapes of women..LOL
there is this jw husband and wife i knew from the 80's when i was a child.
they got a divorce a few years ago and never remarried.
they are older now and unable to afford to live on their own.
The wife and I divorced over a year, she came to my job to see if we could work it out.
We gave it a try, she sneaking around visiting my place because I was DF.
One night I'm visiting her, our four kids not home. My oldest daughter
came home while we were sitting talking in the kitchen, she screamed "dad what
are you doing here, you know you shouldn't be here with mom alone". I was
speechless and very upset, the wife didn't say anything. I walked out and never
returned. A year later she married a brother(elder) who she had spent nights at his place.
That one daughter, I haven't seen or talk to her in 13-16 years, a year ago she divorced
and will remarry this November. It's funny how life works, she have two girls and he have 4
kids, three boys and a daughter.
