Went to a conference and....
by Crafty Lady ini went to a three day conference for work held at a hotel in rochester, ny.
the rooms all had the highest beds i've ever seen.
had to stand on tiptoes and put one side of my rear on the bed and then sort of jump and wiggle up.

NOT AGAIN! That's right folks, once again we are now 'very close' 2 the end
by needproof ini have received word that we are now 'very, very close'.
at the sunday meeting, according to my trusted source, the speaker actually said that 'it is no longer years, nor months - yet weeks and days'.
so they need you back, now!

If The Elders Decide To Get You-----They Will!!!
by minimus inplease never think that you can reason with an "older man", a "spiritual shepherd", an "elder".
elders already know what their agenda is.
if they want to talk with you, they control the format.

How about birthdays?
by molybdenum inhi... i'm a newbie here.
i have been associated with jw's for quite some time however there is one aspect of being a witness that i can't quite come to terms with that is the prohibition on celebrating a person's birthday i have of course read the arguments for this but find them somewhat unconvincing.
is it really the case that everyone follows this direction?

Why go to schooll if you are a jw?
by fullofdoubtnow ini just watched this video about the watchtower view of education at the end of the 1960's, when they were looking forward to the "end" coming in 1975. they haven't changed their attitude much either, from what i've read of late.
