My son best friend (both raised in borg) met in high school and remain friends over
20 years. His friend father left the family when his mom became a JW, 5 boys a two girls.
A few years back one of his older brothers was killed when the car he was working on fell on him,
and just this pass week another brother killed his wife (or girlfriend) and killed himself in northern
California.
Over the years my son has learned the truth about the truth and they both have had many discussion and
both have come out of the borg healthy. Both married with lovely wives and kids.
My son and his friend worked together in a store in HS and one day my son said his friend father walked into
the store and he introduced him to his father. My son said it was very awkward, it was if his friend was meeting an
old friend, very cold. The mom and the two daughters are still JW but the five sons left as soon as they were old enough.
IT's sad because I know his friend well, very nice young man.
But I wonder about the boys(his brothers), no relationship with their father and mother. I realize these things
happen to people that are not JW but still I wonder how much of an effect it(raised a JW) has had in their lives.
My son and his friend both in their mid 30's, his friend is the younger brother of the five.

Wikipedia: WT prediction were held for the arrival of Armageddon in 1975 but later
apologized to members by the GB. So it seems like everyone knows about the prediction
except the JW. LOL

Looks like JW is the way to go !!

on the local nyc 6pm news a reporter interviewed a guy behind bars for burglary to ask him how they scope out the people/house they hit, this guy just said he even put on a tie and pretended he was a jw while scoping out the place to see what their schedule is, to see if anyone is at home.. have to say smart move on the burglars part, but of course not a smart move at all to break in and take other folks property.

How about arresting the Pedophillia that knock on your door.....

Yes I have been preparing for the big one (earthquake in Calif) for years. I figure we need
enough supplies to last for two weeks and a gas generator. If the other Big one comes (Armageddon)
I'am sh--t out of luck...LOL

Are the Elders harder on Women
by Steel in
1. jw
2. experiences
i was having a discussion with an old friend last night.

her parents are divorced and his mother never became “one of jehovah witnesses “ .

long story short she claims elders are generally hardier on women than men.

The sisters were a lot smarter than the bro's, I realized that when I became a elder.

"You will never grow old in this present system of things" -- some campaign tools

i am approaching 76 years old.

i can clearly recall that awake!

statement and similar during the pre-1975 hype -- "staying alive in '75", et al.
James Mixon

Outlaw; "Dementia", a funny thing about we never proclaimed that message, worldly
people remember it well. Over the years I have been told by a number of folks who were never
a JW, what happen to 1975. Try telling them we never scared the Sh--t out of folks at the doors
your time is short and we got it from a very reliable source, GB= Jehovah...
Wouldn't it be funny to take a census just to see the people around in 1970's non-JW and what
was the message JW proclaimed at their doors, Matt:24;14. Yes we had covered the earth
with our message.LOL

Yes, new ones today will say the WT never said those things. We ran ahead proclaiming
the end is near. I wonder what gave us that idea.
