Whole day ruined because it's a meeting night?
by veen inat some point nearly every day of the week was soiled by the prospect of some 'spiritual' activity.
it took me years of inactivity before i started seeing tuesdays and thursdays as enjoyable, without a shadow hanging over them.
wednesday was always my favorite day of the week.. .

So I did the unthinkable
by veen ini decided enough was enough and had a no holds barred conversation with a room of around a dozen 'believers'.
a number of things had been troubling me all night, but the final straw was when my brother-in-law said 'isn't it funny how the acronym std can stand for both, sexually transmitted disease and satan the devil.'.
i couldn't stand the frustration anymore so i pointed out how irrelevant that fact was, and how if we spoke a different language the same conclusion could probably not be made.

Bethel wifeswapping phenomenon
by veen inso i've got some friends who are international construction volunteers, and have spent the last few years traveling to different bethels around the world.
i was talking to one of them in the pub on the weekend, and she said that they have separate saunas for men and women in all the bethels because every bethel she's been to has had a problem with wifeswapping taking place in them.. .
how mental is that!

Help needed answering someone on another forum.
by veen ini've been having a debate with some guys, non jw's, on a different forum.
how would you reply to this?.
most of the things mentioned in revelation are perfectly believable and likely to happen, like asteroid/meteor impacts, wars, famine (food insecurity is going to be a major problem as the world's population increases).

"Read the bible daily"
by veen incorrect me if i'm wrong, but i used to think that on one of the brooklyn bethel buildings there used to be a big sign saying, "read god's word the bible daily", or something along those lines.
well i went there recently and i saw a big sign saying, "read the watchtower and awake!
" not necessarily daily though, that was not specified.
