What UNUSUAL MARRIAGES have you seen among JW's?
by BonaFide inthese are couples that i know personally.. a brother i know married a sister 36 years older than him.
he was 35, she was 71. they are still married 5 years later.
they do not get along, and they make that known to the entire hall.. a brother that has been married twice and is 50 years old recently married a 19-year old.

The Biggest B.S. stories you've heard from a talk
by superman ina few years ago at a convention, they related a story of a jw who was shot during service.
but rather then stop and get medical attention (like a normal person would have done) they moved on to the next door to finish the street.
when they got to the house the householder just so happened to be a (you guessed it) nurse!

JW's feel God will destroy all those involved with the military, but when a crisis hits and they come to the rescue, they become a Godsend.
by kitten whiskers injust had to laugh and shake my head today.. hubby's cousin, an ex-jw too, keeps in touch really well with his folks who are still in.
they moved south to kentucky to where the need was greater along with some others from our old congregation.
one couple, very well loved and sweet as pie, moved to south america to where the need was great again.. recently, the husband, was attacked and beaten nearly to death.

I hate the CO
by superman inso i was talking to my mother the other day, and she was distressed because she was saying that if my little sister isn't baptized or working toward it by the time she's 18 (which is coming up soon) she may have to move out (more then likely she'll move in with me and my girlfriend, or my older sister if that happens).
my little sister is a great kid (high honor roll, no trouble, hard worker, etc), that many parents would be grateful to have.
i asked my mom, why would they take parenting advice from a guy who doesn't (and hasn't) ever had kids?

Is this true
by superman ini've been faded and moved out of the area where my records are kept (the old hall i last attended).
the elders there don't bother calling me anymore and even if they did, i've moved so far away that they couldn't stop over for a visit anyway.
since i am in a new area now where no jw's even no that i exist, life is pretty good (i can live a normal life without having to look over my shoulder).

Vote:DO you think the WTBTS will end with a BANG or a WHIMPER
by superman inpersonally i think it will end with a whimper.
i think that they will always have members, but after the "system" continues and more and more people get discouraged, df'd, da'd, or fade after a long enough time they will slowly continue to consilidate halls (lose members) until it finally get so small they eventually go by the wayside or switch to something like e-meetings or web-meetings or once yearly conventions.
any takers??
