  How do you feel about Christmas?

  by AJN in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do you enjoy it after so many years of not celebrating?

  does it have any relevance to you now?.

  i live in nz and it doesn't feel like xmas to me cause it's the middle of summer - it just doesn't compute so that helps really all in all.

  I know

  by Jesus Christ in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know that my grandmother died before her time because she refused a transfusion that could have saved her life long enough to see her grandson get married.

  i know there was nothing i could have told my cousin back in high school when he said he didn?t want to disobey god by taking blood to fight his leukemia but even more importantly didn?t want to die.

  i know i have a cousin whose wife loves him but unlike most couples doesn?t expect to spend forever with her husband because he?s the only one that will be going to heaven.

  My wife stole my books!!!!

  by dmouse in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i had an interesting conversation with a jw last week, who insisted that she was not 'brainwashed' and would be prepared to look at any evidence i had that the 'truth' was not the one true truth.. so i went to my book cupboard to get my copies of 'crisis of conscience' and 'signs of the last days - when?

  ' in order to lend them to her.. and they are gone!!!!

  i am absolutely certain they were there only a few weeks ago.. i can only assume that my jw wife (whom i'm not on the best of terms with) has taken them.

  engaging in the xmas shopping rush is never boring when you've got shunners in the mall!.

  will they just stare?

  will they perhaps smile?

  1. jw
  2. friends

  how would you discribe a true friend?

  and do you think you ever had any real freinds while you were there?

  i think its hard to have a real freind if you need to be careful about everything you say and do.

  They have nothing to loose by shunning

  by garybuss in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if my attitude toward the shunners is to be waiting for them with a full pardon, waiting for them to quit shunning me so i can shower them with love as their reward for being jerks, they have nothing to lose by continuing the shunning.

  they don't have a dog in the fight.

  if children who shun parents were notified by the parents that they will loose their inheritance if they continue the shunning, all of a sudden they have something to loose by shunning.. .
