lets put all of our memorial stories/thoughts on one thread.
mine: 45 mins.
quick and boring.
Funny: Hall is totally uncomfortably quiet while the wine is being passed around-old sister says right out loud, "I just always have to smell it". LOLJez
gotta love those "older seesters"
-this was the first time in 32 years (note i am 32) that i didn't go to the memorial. i didn't even have the desire to do so. it was a great night for me, i sat at home drank wine (no, i am not of the 144,000) and chatted with friends.
so i went to the meeting today.. i've been absent for a lil while.
my husband says "remember to smile and be nice.
" kinda gives you the impression that i'm not always...lol.
I always felt if you allowed "sister's" to sit on like say, "Judicial Committees" and allowed sister's to "be there" for "the flock" to go to for "help" you would have a MUCH more balanced and beneficial result. Of course, what the hell am I thinking anyway, Brooklyn has the final result on these things so it really doesn't hardly matter who is on the JC or in the position of Elder/Counselor.

i remember being told if you partake of the emblems and not be of the anointed the bad things will happen you or at the very least christ will be real made at you.
i have always believed the witness's to be presumptuous on their part of this issue to make such a statement, who are they to say who should and who should not.
does not the bible/christ, say to do this always in remembrance of me, concerning his followers are we not his followers?
I'll probably have some wine tonight at home. But then that's not really anything new...
if they any of them had or have children that needed a blood transfusion to live, i wonder if they would deny their children blood and watch them die for the watchtower society?.
or would you see a quick change of doctrine?
ie: new light?.
This is really a non issue. Who would ever get impregnated by those old bags anyway?
what book are they studying at the book study now?
i went to the kingdom hall for the very last time.
i went in the door in my guns n roses t-shirt and ripped up lucky jeans, new earrings and goatee.
i went up to the po of the congregation and told him i needed to talk to him.
the kingdom hall where i used to go has the theocratic ministry school and service meetings on tuesday.
i have finally come to grips with my need to exit the jehovah's witnesses forever.
i told my parents today that i'm leaving the jw religion behind forever.
Hey! What's wrong with Barry boy anyway? Co...copa cabana....!!!
