i knew brothers who would not allow a television in thier house.
you were lucky if you were around any that listened to music.
we would jokingly among older ones talk of going out and pulling our earth wind & fire albums out and taking them for a spin.
The main lights had been turned off and a few red lights scattered around to try and make it look like a disco lol I don't remember what was playing just that it was awful the same as the sisters trying to dance modestly to it but looking like it was the best night out that they'd ever had.
Having DJ'd during the late 70's-early 80's I would bet they not only had a good time, secretly they probably wanted more.
i was told that ( by the husband) that child molesting is brought up often at the meeting and how it is up to the family if the police should be notified.
now i know it is not favored to call the police but has anyone heard these talks on molesting at the meetings?
anything about molestings?.
Kls, I have asked my wife who goes to all the meetings, she has heard nothing about it.
the blood letters by r jensen made riveting reading.
thank you to the posters who advised about the availability of these letters: a lone elders attempts to elicit some sense from the rigidly nonsensical watchtower's pick-and-choose blood transfusion doctrine.
the guy was probably doomed from the start, but i so admire his persistence and courage!
All good posts here. I always wondered why you couldn't store your own blood for an upcoming operation? The lame response was that the blood left the body. OK my response to that is, Hasn't the blood used to make fractions also left the body? When we have blood tests done, itsn't it supposed to be poured out on the ground? Some have told me that its only a small amount of blood to due a test. So I guess size matters now. What does it matter, whether you get killed by a small bullet or run over by a tank! Hypocrites!
.
what shall i do with it?
medium size - side 1medium size - side 2. large size - side 1large size - side 2
Leave it on the back of your toilet bowl, for those emergency times.
anybody have the current 'time requirements' for reg.

also, can you tell me what are the duties of a ms besides holding the coveted microphone?
As far as I know now its:

what did you used to do out witnessing to make it a little more fun that it really was?.
my best friend misspeaches and i were regularly partnered up to go door knocking.
I remember as a teenager I hated the door to door work so I pretended to ring the doorbell and then said to my partner, " no ones home lets go to the next house." Boy I had a lot of "not a homes"
well, not really rebellion but that i've wanted one of these for a long time so i went and did it today, and i love it!
my little sister came out for a visit this weekend and i told her everything about leaving the jw's.
she has pretty much left about 6 months ago when she went away to college.
Good for you freedomlover.
october 8, 1986 awake!
i did all of the research for awake!
editor and senior writer, harry peloyan, for the 1993 booklet, "what is the purpose of life?
I read in Ray Franz books that many of the articles now being published are not by the FDS anymore. Guess if Jesus came now he would have to reject the FDS for not doing their JOB, huh! The sheep are feeding themselves now. Does this mean they qualify for heavenly life now too?
for those of you who are out (or going that way) are there any names or terms that dubs have used to describe you that you make you laugh?.
my personal favorite (out of many) is that i'm an "enemy of everlasting life" .
by a former elder and friend.. yup, that's me...i want to see everyone die!!!!!!
How much time do you have?? lol. Seriously though besides the typical apostate, I've been told I'm weak spiritually, don't have strong faith. Paleeeeezze!
word has it in new york city that the cozy days at nassau colisseum are over.
(for those of you unfamiliar with new york, the district conventions have been held at an indoor colisseum for for several years now.
prior to that new yorkers were forced into sitting for 3+ days in a hot, humid, sometimes rainy outdoor stadium.
Lets just hope the Yankees are playing! LOL
