  What's the word?

  by bagpuss in

  1. jw

  if you could sum up your time in the borg with just one word, what would it be and why?.

  for me it would be guilt.

  guilt about not doing enough ministry, not enough study,doing too much secular work, the list seems endless.on the odd occasions i felt i'd done quite well you can bet we'd have a talk saying more,more more!.

  When did The Watchtower start requiring Time to be Turned In?

  by VM44 in

  keeping track of the publisher's hours is a management performance indicator that the watchtower uses to see how hard the witnesses are working for them.

  does anyone know when the watchtower made "turning in time" a requirement?.

  i am going to guess it was sometime in the 1930's.

  once, discussing the recently passed circuit assembly.

  he had interviewed a young pioneer that was able to pioneer without a car.

  she "arranged her schedule" (translation: bummed rides well in advance) to make sure she had a way to and from the hall.

  Mention of Jehovah's Witnesses in popular entertainment

  by enderby in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i don't know if this thread has been done before, but can anybody think of times that jehovah's witnesses were made mention of or joked about in music, tv, or movies?

  for example,there are a couple of simpsons episodes, one were marge alludes to being so desperate for company that jehovah's witnesses ran away when she went to get them more lemonade.

  another time, two jw's approach the simpsons' house and one turns to the other just before ringing the doorbell and asks "ruby, do you ever think we should get real jobs?".
