i think its ok if they are in the same car with a person of the opposite sex, just as long as there are others also there, they just cant be alone in the car by themselves.

Can a witness receive a massage?
by JH in.

In the cong. i go to, you can see people kind of seperating, but i dont think i've ever seen any direct racism towards anybody. everyone talks to everybody, to be nice and stuff, but alot of the brothers and sisters, i have to say especially with the white ones, maybe because there are fewer of them, hang out mainly with those of their own race when going out places. Im white, so don't get me wrong, but the some of the white sisters in my cong. seem to be to uppity to hang out with others. I have heard talks were the witnesses will say that it might be best to marry only in your own race, because of the differences in backgrounds and stuff, but that it is a personal thing, i think thats the extent of it though.
(She also said that she should be careful on our wedding night because black mens willies were much bigger than that of white men..Cant argue with that!!)

I think in my cong. it would probably be looked down on, even if they didnt say anything to you. hugging is only done between people of the same sex, if there was a brother or sister that hugged they'd probably be counseled on it. and yea, no leaving the brothers or sisters alone in the car by themselves. there was an elder not too long ago that had to come over to my house and talk to my sister, and i was supposed to sit in the same room with them, since i would of been the only other person home at the time. and my sister wanted to know why i had to sit with them, i made some comment about how the witnesses were afraid that if the two of them were alone he might jump on her, my mom had a fit, lol, now they just think i have a dirty mind, but that is what they are afraid of isnt it?

Theocratic School Talks, they were the worst ! hated doing them, did you ?
by run dont walk inremember back to the days you were in the theocratic school and had to give talks, were they the worst or what, i remember they were suppose to run about 6-8 minutes, i had some short as 3. the talks were pointless, you would just throw some mumble jumble together and go up and talk, first the introduction (and don't forget your gestures), then read the weekly scripture and then the conclusion, all your words of wisdom.
i would rank this second on the worst list next to field service (still # 1).. how about you, did you enjoy doing them ?
did you even prepare for them ?

oh man, i absolutely hate giving talks. i still am made to do so, since i still live with my mother. but to me they are the worst things, i stress over them sooo much and dont get them done till the very last minute. out of all the things in life that i have to do in life giving talks is the worst. i'm kind of a quiet person normally so i'm really bad at getting up in front of so many people and giving talks. i think the last talk i had i even tryed to convince a couple of my friends to write it for me if i payed them. didnt work though, none of them wanted to do it either. and my mom thinks its such a 'privilege' to give them.

How relieved are you now that your finally set free?
by micheal ini was thinking back to the time when i was in my "spiritual paradise" oh about 7 months ago and i can really remember just how unhappy most people really were.
most seemed so loaded down with "privledges" and "responsiblilities" that it just sucked the life out of them.
any spirit they may previously had had faded to mere a shell of their former selves.

Which way will the Society go because of the Internet?
by be wise ini've only learned the truth about this society over the last 5 months or so, so i'm not sure what the difference is to say - 2 years ago.
do you think the society will now get even more cultish in it's methods of teaching and more heavy handed if they feel things are slipping?
i don't feel i'm being over the top here because i've experienced very heavy handed talks at the assemblies and kingdom hall in the past that are just plain scare tactics but this just makes people ask more questions ??

they will definately keep up the whole the internet is the devil thing, lol. it might already be too late for that though, considering alot of people already have the internet. so they can't go back and change their minds about how we shouldnt even have it to begin with, although i'm sure they wish they could. they'll just have to keep trying to make sure nobody visits any jw sites except theirs. which wont work because people are curious. i think that in countrys were we have access to more information there will start to be a decress in numbers of witnesses, but over in other countrys the numbers will keep going up. they'll keep taking advantage of the less informed.

lol, yea i just went to the convention a few weeks ago. i could barely stay awake. it seems to me they always just want to repeat the same things, and then the brothers and sisters always ask what you learned afterwards, and since i'm still trying to keep the peace and not get thrown out of my house, all i can do is smile nicely, when what i really want to say is that i didnt learn a thing, that they are only repeating themselves every year.
