  I began the fade right after I was married in 1976. I attended one memorial when my daughter was about one year old, which would put it around 1981 or 82. Aside from my mother's funeral talk in 1993, that was my last time at a Kingdom Hall.

  Do You Love Telemarketers???

  ok, i'm getting worn out from these guys.

  i always tell them to never call again and some do take me off the list.

  it seems they are getting more agressive.

  Several states, New York for example, have initiated do-not-call registries in which you can ask to be listed. Once there, telemarketers must check your number against the list before calling and face a fine if you are on it and they still call you. There are exceptions to it, for example I believe that charities and political campaigns can still call.

  I live in RI, and a bill is in the works to institute such a list here. There is considerable pressure from the telemarketing industry against it, since there are many call centers located here.

  A Heads Up On Potential Heads Off...

  by hillary_step in

  hello,.

  some of you who have 'drifted' from the wts may not be aware than in recent months the wts has required co's to report the names and circumstances of those who have become 'inactive'.

  the elders are required to visit each one and report to the co on his next visit as to where they are, who they are and why they have gone 'inactive'.. as ever there may be mixed motives with this arrangement, but it as well to be prepared.. best regards - hs

  Glad to hear about this. In the unlikely chance that someone from my distant past does stop by, I will prepare a little "information packet" of some choice items for their review.

  Why all the disrespect for Tua Pek Kong?

  by bboyneko in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  now i understand completely that most in this forum are 100% against jws and the watchtower.

  what i don't understand is the disrespect that has been shown for such a sacred occasion that is the birthday of tua pek kong.

  whether you agree with jws or not, the fact is that birthday of tua pek kong has a lot of meaning for poh hock seah's.

  Wasn't TuPek Kong killed in a drive-by shooting after one of his concerts? Or am I getting my Gods of Prosperity mixed up?

  I live in Rhode Island, right on the MA line, but none of those names are familiar. Of course, unless they lived in Southeastern Massachusetts I would probably not know them.

  On www.freeminds.org, there is a database of former witnesses from all over. You may want to take a look there as well.
