WT Advice

in all the years that you were an active jw did: 1. going out in the ministry when you were down or felt depressed every make you forget your problems and cause you to feel better?

2. going to meetings when you had to rush around and practically yell and scream at your husband/wife/kids to get there ever cause you to feel better that you went instead of staying home to relax?

these are the top two elder solutions to jw problems.

Fading With Children

i have, for the most part successfully faded.

no elders calling, my parents know i don't attend meetings, but have a don't ask/don't tell policy.

they don't ask if i went to a meeting, i don't tell them i haven't.

NotaNess

What I would do is show up at their door, wearing a Santa outfit, holding an Easter Basket and a live turkey on a leash. When they open the door say..."we need to talk".

I'd love to see their faces with that!

Seriously, I hope it all goes well for you.

This site is BAD for me!!!

by Metamorphosis in

jw
friends

it's making me want to rush the convincing of my wife - i want confrontation now, and i want it to go good, and i want her out with me!

how can you folks do this to me... before starting on this site i was just trying to get by myself w/ my decision - see what you've done!!!!

now i'm convinced i have to talk to her and make her see what i see!!

NotaNess

Separate, and she'll start wanting to listen to you.

Sounds pretty straight forward and blunt, but I think this is what it will take. She can't be with anyone else, she'll have her mate gone, she'll cry to her "sisters", and she'll be compelled to listen, just to get you back home.

Will stink to have to go through it, but in the end, the prize will be worth it.

Make sure she knows from your heart that you will not be unfaithful in anyway...this is very key. And, be careful how you word your comments/notification of separation, so the elders don't give her "scriptural" reasons other than adultry, to divorce you. I believe they can't though, only for separation, true, but you never know with these flip floppers.

Just another angle to look at.

Study ended because he asked too many embarrassing questions.

nothing new here just a reminder to those who havent been to hall for awhile.. a workmate just had his study cut off.

there were some things he was being taught that he agreed with (trinity) some he didnt (faithful and discreet slave being a group of old men in ny).

here are a couple of interesting facts:.

NotaNess

I say he should try and get setup with another congregation (KH) and ask the same questions again. Maybe 2 JWs can have that seed planted, and atleast 2 will be released possibly.

If anything, that would be a positive accomplishmnet for your friend.

Got my invite to this year's Assembly finally

by NotaNess in

jw
friends

i was wondering when 1 of them at work was gonna give me an invite.

i asked if it was about the "follow the christ" theme.

they said yes, and followed with..."savior".. i just left it with, "i've read about it online".. thanks to you all!.....

NotaNess

Just a verbal invite. Since they are in different congregations (the people at work), Some have already had their assembly, and I heard that at one, there were so many people, you could hardly find a seat.

I was also told..."You should go for the dramas"

by NotaNess in

jw

just curious to hear any stories on any "brothers" or "sisters", you witnessed getting into a fist fight or getting physical at a k hall or just in general anywhere?.

how about maybe some major cursing arguments?

i know this would probably be pretty rare, but...... any stories?
