Apart from "My Book Of Bible Stories" and the "Paradise" book?
by Crumpet incall it my anal retentious streak, but i've rated every book i've ever read since i was 7. i had phases of favourite writers.. i was an enid blyton fan - the faraway tree, famous five, secret seven, mallory towers series.
then i got hooked on franklin w dixon's hardy boys and judy blume's eye opening, straight talking stories about growing up which really taught me everything i knew about what life was like for a normal girl not growing up in the jw world.
i started reading agatha christie when i was 9 and remember taking the maximum number of books i could from the mobile library van that came to our village and being as impatient for its fortnightly return as i was for the afternoon icecream van.

was anyone actually proud and happy to be spreading the word(ministry)
by looloo ini can only think of one person who actually seemed to have "joy in her heart "on the min when i studied , and even the dubs used to hate being put with this person, it all seems so obvious now that it has nothing to do with a love for god , but doing whats expected of you

do you think it is actually just part of the routine and nothing else? do you think they think its bullshit but have no choice but to do it ?

1973 Drama about Rahab
by betweenworlds inlol!.
this drama opens with a typical jw family after their weekly watchtower study.
the son asks a question regarding how many people will be destroyed during armageddon and how long it will last and the proceeds to give statistics for how many will have to die per day if it lasts for one year!

my dissfelowshipped hub not happy about our child visiting grandma
by looloo ini have finally got grandma to agree to seeing her grandchild , and hubby does not want it , he thinks that if she cant be bothered to make time for her then i should not chase it up , this is his mother , im not a dub , i can see his point but think it important to try and keep in contact .
any advice?

i think she does want a relationship with her grandchild but dosnt come to visit her , i think that must be because she is told not to visit by the elders , which is quite likely as i have a rep for being anti witness and my hub is disfellowshipped
