Weird Logic
by loosie inlet's hear the weirdest comment or suppossed logical thought you've ever heard a witness say.. i'll start: out in service once a sis and her son were in the same car group as i was.
he was having a nose bleed and told his mom that the blood was running down the back of his throat.
his mother said " well don't swallow it yo uknow how jehovah feels about blood don't you!".

Bookstudy Group Disbanded......haha
by Mary ini just got word that the bookstudy attendance in one of the groups at my hall has dwindled off to numbers so pitiful that they're dissolving this particular bookstudy group and splitting up the remainder and shipping them out to other bookstudy groups.

They told us to turn our backs on loved ones!
by paws ini would like to raise a subject that i bet all you long-time posties have already discussed:
when a person enters the org having already had a life outside it, he/she is told that family and friends must take a back seat.
further to that, some individuals will even 'council' you that total departure from those you love would be wise and indeed expected!

Those that would never miss a meeting or field service no matter what...
by JH in.
did you know a few in your congregation that would never miss a meeting, no matter what.
even if it was 20 below zero or 100 f or if they were sick, they would be there anyways.. these people irritated me, because they wanted to show how good they were.. did you know any like that?

JW Distinctions w/o a Difference
by Amazing1914 indistinctions without a difference:
issues regarding jw beliefs and teachings bugged me going into the religion, and bugged me until i left.
they are those oh so all-important claims they make that other religions are doing such bad things ... yet they do the same thing ... but, they manage to draw some kind of technical distinction that really makes no difference.
