How would your respond?

Convention Hotels
by Billzfan23 ini have heard an experience a thousand times (in conversation as well as from the platform) of a person who had a talk on the district convention program that did not stay at a hotel on the recommended lodging list.
this person was spotted by a fellow conventioner and was asked why he was staying at a hotel that was not on the list and happened to be just across the street from the convention location.
his reply was that he has a part on the convention and it would be more convenient for him to stay there than use one of the approved hotels.

JWD as home page
by Billzfan23 inso...on my home pc (which my kids use all the time) - i set my internet browser home page to here - even though i don't visit here every day or post very often.
i notice that when they open the browser, they have been looking at the active topics just for the sake of browsing them.
my daughter did a lot of poking around the site the other day (even though she attends meetings with her mother occasionally - my son does not attend at all and hasn't for 3 years).

Post an open statement to your old or current congregation
by Billzfan23 indear congo,.
i was df'ed for apostasy (brother-in-law caught me on this web site in march of 2007) and since my judicial committee in april of 2007 and subsequent divorce in october of 2007 i never looked back.
3 years later, my son (12 years old) is completely out (has only attended the memorial since leaving), and my daughter (10) is fading as best she can.

Billboard Space anyone?
by Billzfan23 inhow cool would it be to take all the "poz-tates" in the world, have them pool some cash together (perhaps do some fund-raising) and have a huge bill-board in every major city (airport route, main traffic artery, etc) and put up a "learn the truth about jehovah's witnesses" billboard with a nice link to jwd, silent lambs, or some other great expose' site...

By their fruits you will recognize them...
by Billzfan23 ini always thought those were powerful words when i was a jw... now, i realize that is precisely the "fruits" of the witlesses that are driving so many newbies to this and other boards... stranger than fiction....

Strange thing - the menatility of the disfellowshipped
by Billzfan23 ini was in target the other day with this girl that i have been dating for a few weeks - we were browing around, she was getting some housewares for a new apartment that she is moving in to..but that's neither here nor there... .
i turn the corner - and there stand a couple of dubs that were assigned to my book study when i was an elder last year.
one of them is 24 years old, the other is around 18 or 19 now.
