JW's on trick or treat night
by carla inhow did your jw families appreciate people knocking on your doors on trick or treat night?
ever answer the door and tell them how pagan they were?
we had one jw house that used to be totally dark except for the porch light so we could read their sign- we are jw's and do not celebrate halloween.

woo hoo....JW Mom is coming to my wedding!
by AuSet in....my whacked out jw hardliner mom just informed me this morning that she and my entire jw family will be coming to my wedding on oct. 1st.
this has come totally out of the blue as previous to today she did not give any indication of caring one way or the other whether i got married or not, and had said to me a couple of times "oh, i'll just stay and watch over the food.
i think my more liberal jw sister has managed to talk some sense into her at last.

wierd JW sister experience
by AuSet ini was walking in uptown mpls on hennipen ave....last weekend, with my jw sister, her jw boyfriend, and my fiance..... there was this lady sitting on a park bench reading what looked like a new awake rather conspicuously , i was about to yell out to her "are you counting your time or what?
" when i noticed a small table she had set up on the sidewalk with some very old jw wts on it, and some other old literature..... my sister sees it and quickly sidesteps it as though she had been shocked...and she said to her jw bf while sucking in her breath loudly "ooooo....that's apostate literature.
wait a second...i said loudly....am i to understand that you just called the jws own literature apostate?

Old JW books & Apostate literature
by AuSet ini had a funny experience at work the other day.
i'm working at a christian college for the summer as an electrical apprentice....we've been in the library for the last couple of weeks, and i happened to discover several old, old jw books (the old paradise lost book, and many others) right alongside of crisis of conscience, and several other "apostate books" .....whoo hoo, was i excited!
all the jw literature had taped written warnings on the outside of the book covers, saying "do not read for any purpose other than to study the jw religion!!

So-called "experiences" about courting/marrying non-believers
by Gopher ini don?t remember exactly where in jw-land i heard these experiences, but i believe they were passed around through word of mouth rather than through assemblies or publications.
urban legends?
you decide.. experience #1. faithful jw girl is dating a fellow who is studying (or was recently baptized) in order to win her love rather than because he believes jw doctrine.

new kingdom songs?
by ezekiel3 inhi, my first post, although i've been lurking for some time now.
i am an active jw that continues my association with full knowledge of the organisation's tactics.
my main reason for abiding is my family and friends, although there is little i agree with in the way of doctrine.
