Intelligent People on this Forum
by BenV insomeone had a thread about "smart people" in their congregations.
while i readily admit there were some "good," and "kind" jws in the congregation i grew up in.
and maybe it was the location -- my dad was asked to move there -- but for the most part it was an intellectual sahara.. yet i've noticed that on this forum there are some incredibly "smart" people.

JWs at the door
by HB inyesterday, my 23 year old son mark was the only one in our house and was just drying off after a shower when the front doorbell rang.
he was expecting a friend to arrive, so he pulled on a pair of underpants and went to open the door and let his friend in, only to find two sweet-looking, demurely dressed middle aged jw ladies on the doorstep holding magazines.
mark was not particularly embarrassed, but the ladies were visibly taken aback by his appearance and were speechless for a couple of seconds.

Just wanted to say hi, also have a question
by exwitless inhey, everyone.
you probably didn't miss me, but i've been away from the board for a few months.
i guess you could say i'm an "irregular poster", and i'm "weak", and should do more "personal study".

Do elders actually read a DA letter?
by digderidoo ini have thought about daing myself over the years.
i see it as putting that part of my life behind me, however i will not at the moment due to my mom.
at some point in the future i will do this and close a chapter of my life.. i have always wondered though whether the elders actually read the reasons as to why a person does this.

I can only laugh
by treadnh2o ini was just reading through some post(not intending to actually start a thread) and a sister calls to confirm our families service plans for tomorrow.
the funny part is i told my wife earlier this week that this organization is complete b.s.
guess i'll be cool about it because my wife was not all that upset or surprised.
