Hi Shanna,
WELCOME! I just discovered the board a few weeks ago too... One word of caution, just like the WTS it can overtake your life!
Also... watch your language.
Ms. Mouthy will "Bust that A$$!"

Sorry! I've been giggling about this one all weekend... I crack myself up!
Anyway... Looks like they'll be $16.50 plus $5.00 shipping
If there's enough demand, we can get the price down a bit. -

For the active JW on the go it reads, "I DONT THINK SO! ... I read the Watchtower"
For everyone else, it says, "I don't think.... so I read the Watchtower"
Just in time for Christmas!
Who wants one?

Hey R6laser,
Dude... I think you're missin'the goal.... It's not about promoting MY views... It's warning others of the possible dangers in studying with JW's.
I take it from your handle that you ride... (Me too, In fact I've got a 1000 Yamaha that I just put Ohlins front and rear legs on for the next track day... can't wait) anyway, I don't see it any differently than listening to some rider say that you can push into turn 2 without scubbing any speed to a newbie WHILE you KNOW that there's oil in that turn. There's a time to mind your own and a time to speak up.
What the listener does with the info is totally thier decision. But there are times that not saying anything is a criminal act. If you were a JW in the past, don't you wish someone had taken the time to warn you... or by being here, didn't somebody share their insight with you?
Would you feel any differently about this if I made a picket sign that said "JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES KILLED MY BROTHER" and just stood at the end of the driveway and never said a word?
Sincerely...Thanks for giving a crap enough to post your opinion.
It's appreciated,
Gordon
P.S. Please let me know if you do ride/race. -

R6laser said,
"How can this be considered a good idea baffles me, but I guess to each their own. I mean I have better things to do with my time than what basically constitutes stalking people just to settle a grudge."
Maybe this will explain it:
I'm sittiing in my apartment one day and smell something like propane. I pick up the phone and call the superintendant who says, Yes there's a terrible gas leak! For God's sakes... get out of the building NOW!!! Your brother is already dead from the fumes and the whole place could go up any minute!!
I grab my wallet and race out the door. At the stairs, I pass my lifelong friend who asks, "Where ya going in such a hurry?" I reply, Nowhere, just gonna go outside for a while. In the lobby a see a couple of people discussing the gas smell... they Say hello as I pass and I smile and nod back at them. On the way out the door, I have to pause as a group of people that I had never seen before are heading inside... luckily, I squeeze past them and run across the street.
Once there, I meet another person that I knew from the 3rd floor, They too had called the super and got the warning. So there we stood, discussing our day, Talking about how terrible the coming disaster would be, and sharing our stories of how much we never really liked living in that building anyway....with all it's stupid rules and tenant committees.
6 million people live in that building... a lot of them are my family. -

Not Effective??????
This is for the householder... not the dub.
Who here would not have thought twice about accepting that free in home bible study.
If there are over 6 million dubs now.... aren't THEY effective?
Could this possibly demoralize the witness?
Any chance they might read my handout just to see what I was saying about THEM... if so, isn't that way more apostate info than they would probably ever get through any other means?
Irritate the householder, Possibly... I would think that handled properly... it might be more amusing than anything.
Sincerely....Thanks for the input! -

SKally's post made me ashamed of myself! How Ballsie!... How effective!
If SHE can confront them, certainly a 6'-2", 235 pound ex-cop should be able to!
I told my wife and she said, "Great idea.. just finish the new countertops first!"
Ok... I've just about worked up the courage for this and the Silestone is coming on Friday.
Thanks to Buttlight and Mary, there are some ideas in mind for a counter-point tract to hand out that tells the rest of the story.
Doubt that I have the balls to act like Chevy Chase when he would mimic people (behind their back) on SNL news. But do think it would be easy to hit the doors a minute or two after the Dubs do. Just say something about the information that they probably didn't mention and leave.
The only problem is possibly running into my father if he's out with them... If I'm confronted by any other witless, that's fine... Not going out to look for a fight. But with respect to Dad... might want to travel a little way. Houston has lot's of congregations.
I don't know... I'll probably chicken out but if anyone has some words of encouragement, warnings, advice on what to say or how to do it, PLEASE share that info. +++BETTER YET+++ anyone in the Houston area wanna go with me???? Just PM for contact info! -

Sorry...
I was writing while you posted your question...
I made the assumption the you were an active JW, here to see what was being said about the religion...
My bad!
