My Witness Mom Asks " What Doubts Have you Had ? " - My Honest Reply
by flipper ineven though my 82 year old witness mom has been a jw since 1951 - we have always been close, able to talk about anything as she is not your typical mind controlled witness - she is reasonable and values family over alleigance to the wt society.
in my 5 years being out of the witnesses as a fader both her and my elder dad have respected why i stopped going ( initially over injustices by elders ) and later as i've told them , the child abuse issues , view of higher education, etc.
so when we were having a friendly mom to son chat - my mom opened the opportunity for me to share more about my doubts - and you guys know me - i carefully dived right in.. it started by my mom expressing concern over my fading witness niece blaming her witness parents ( my sister & husband ) for her problems as an adult .

Any News on Pioneer Hrs Decreasing or Whether COs will be Ending?
by Seeker4 ina few months ago there were some fairly authoritative threads that the pioneer hours were being decreased.
that has not happened.
also, there was a thread that the co arrangement was going to be dramatically changed in the next year or two, and i got some private notes from some excellent sources attesting to that.

Widespread speculation you'll never see in print?
by Mickey mouse injws are very good at whipping up speculation without ever putting a word in print.
maybe they learned something from 1975.. what are some of the things you remember hearing that are not "official doctrine" but lots of jws believe it anyway?.
i've heard a lot of speculation that armageddon would either happen on nisan 14 or in october around the time they reckon the gentile times ended in 1914.. name some of the topics you've frequently heard unsanctioned speculation about.. .

who go ONLY to the memorial???
by oompa ini was planning on going to a meeting or two with my wife.......maybe one or two a month.....but if i do...... i still really do not want to ever go to another memorial......they have weirded me out for years and most of jw friends know that........but you know once you skip a memorial it is like you are marked for death already....i mean word gets around fast "omg...i just heard oompa did not go to the memorial!
so how is this gonna fly if i go to a couple of meetings a month, but skip the memorial?
and if was gonna try to appease my wife by going to some meetings.......should i just bite the bullet and go to the memorial........and then maybe only do the memorial?......i always thought that was sooo funny that we had a bunch of once a year jw's.........they loved coming and rejecting jesus every year..........oompa.
