Did you shoot-down Dates with Lame Excuses?
by Dune inthe semester started last week and i was walking to class today and i found this girl that i've known since my freshman year.
anyway, she seems to be very interested in my because she always invites me to parties and outings with her friends.
for the years that i've known her i've been giving her lame excuses as to why i cant go to the movies, restaurants or parties with her.

Ethnic and Social Campaigns of the WTBS.
by Dune inso i was coming to the kingdom hall from field service yesterday during the spanish congregation's meeting.
i was amazed because our congregation averages about 85 people for meeting attendance weekly and about 8 (when its supposed to be 25) for the book study.
but the spanish congregation had over 170 and to add to that, they just split about 4 years ago!

What was your first Apostasy?
by Dune ini'm re-reading 1984 and the similarities between the wtbs and the "party" astound me, but anyway, it made me think of the time when i started to get doubts (thoughtcrime).. i remember once at this book study a sister commented about the 1914 and was reciting it's historical accuracy.
anyway, she went on to mention that the demons were probably learning everything about biblical prophecies from the wtbs.
i was 13 at the time but the comment made me cringe, i was thinking "why would superior beings need humans to interpret the bible for them?

My conversation with an elder
by Dune inwell this happened to me a few weeks ago, but i chose to post it later because i'm paranoid.
anyway, i was riding in field service with an elder and our conversation turned to apostasy.
well, he turned it to apostasy because he usually dominates 99% of the conversations we have.but i digress, this is how our conversation went.
