there was a novel by the author of all the police novels that had a JW character, the wife of one of the officers. I cannot remember the name of the author, but two of his books are The Onion Field and Chiefs.
Joseph Wambaugh.

Fictional representations of Jehovah's Witnesses
by slimboyfat ini wonder if anyone has ever compiled a list of references to jehovah's witnesses in novels and other works of fiction.
i have been reading about research into mormonism focussing on how mormons have been represented over the years in works of fiction.
a similar project with jehovah's witnesses would be really fascinating.

April 29, 1965. Reverence for Life, an episode of Dr. Kildare, a very popular TV drama with Richard Chamberlain.
I remember this very well. It starred Dennis Weaver (Chester of Gunsmoke) as a JW whose wife needs a blood transfusion. After all the agony of indecision, he hoped that the court and the doctors would take it out of his hands. They did and it was a happy ending, though the last close of up of Dennis left you feeling that his relief was overshadowed by guilt.
As witnoids, we were incensed by this portrayal.

she got ripped a new A-hole!
Hardly! What a monumental over-statement!
Lemme tell ya - when this group means to rip, we RIP! And this was not the case.
Annie: Welcome! As a long-time lurker, I'm sure you are taking these comments in the right spirit and will stick around.

Before slagging off newbies read their posting history...
Good idea, LT, and done. But I don't think anyone was "slagging off" anyone (is that Scottish for 'criticizing'?), just disagreeing with the proposition of divine purse intervention.
I personally think more people who have lost a wallet or purse don't get them back, prayers or no. It is random..............well...................luck.
One Christmas-tide (gather round, kiddies), we were having very lean times and I was baby-sitting other children in addition to my own two in order to earn extra $. I was paid $300 in cash and, throwing my purse on top of the car, strapped the little ones into their car seats for the mad dash to the bank to deposit it. Alas, when I discovered what I'd done, we madly dashed back home, watching all the way for my purse in the road, praying for a kindness. It was a long kind of rural road, and whoever found it could easily see that the address on my driver's license was very nearby. My purse was returned to me 3 months later - washed up on the beach 35 miles away, gutted of anything of value - except my driver's license. Thanks a lot, Jehoobie!

Sorry about the formatting - it wouldn't take all the copy!
Final word:
He will most likely spend the rest of his life on death row. He is 32 years old.
