Elder visit after being DF'd
by Evesapple inhas anyone ever been re-visited by the elders after being df'd or da'd for some time?
i was once in arizona about 5 years ago, fortunately i was not home, my roomate was, they asked if i was home and she said 'no', they said they were from the local congregation of jehovah's witnesses and would like to invite me back, they also asked her if she was aware that i was once associated with the witnesses and she said, 'yes, i'm very aware'....they then asked when would be a good time to get me home, she was very vague and said "i don't know really, she's training for a marathon and is very busy with school, i never really know when she's home"....they never came back, i think they got the hint, or were just too lazy to try again.
i'm sure my mother had something to do with it....her last hope i guess.

Euphemisms for cursing among JWs
by gaiagirl inin an effort to show that they had put on a 'new' personality, many who joined the wtbts would adjust their speech patterns to avoid common expressions of cursing or profanity.
yet there would still arise times when they would become frustrated, angry or disgusted at someone or at a situation, and wish to express their feelings.
here are a couple of substitutes for cursing heard among jws ...... forget you.
