It always amazes me that there are so few threads on JWN about sports. Is it because we weren't allowed to participate in school? We live and breathe sports in my home, but that is because I live with a sportsaholic.
Oh and BTW GO BRONCOS (I think it will come down to the Seahawks and my Broncos)
i knew two personally, in my congo.
i suspect this is pretty rare.
not that man people die of refusing a blood transfussion i think.
There is a brother in my parents hall that has luekemia. He received a blood transfusion and was privately reproved. Then he received another one and the elders disfellowshipped him. As if he didn't have enough on his plate already.
did you have any favourite books by the society when you were in ?not that this book was my fav.
yet it was the first book i read learning about jw`s.
" from paradise lost to paradise regained " i know , it was designed for the young , however my mentor thought that since i had no understaning of the bible it was what i needed.
Well said Steve (as usual)
they were a hoot weren't they?.
First Monday of every month in Rice Lake, WI. The entire circuit would show up. Couple dance with Kent Erickson to Bee Gees How Can You Mend A Broken Heart .....Good memories. We held hands - what a rush
years ago, the society's speakers used to give many off the cuff statements.
a lot of personal opinions and questionable remarks.. anything ever stand out for you in this area?.
The Searcher.....that is hilarious. At a public talk the elder stated that we will all be vegitarians in the new system, but Jehovah can make trees that grow bacon.
i dont see anyone else mentioning it, so i will: last night at the service meeting there was a letter read, from the most holy 8.. a request for more workers!
and this one with new addendums!
i am pulling from memory, but pretty sure i have it right (feel free to correct me if someone else hears the letter too).. .
Fathful Witness....I asked my mother the same question. Her reply was so the resurrected ones will have a place to live. You can't get much smarter than that - good thing she got her college education from reading the Awake magazines
i seem to remember chess was frowned upon by some jws.
is this like the oral/anal sex policy?
just ignore it and hope it goes away...
If it is fun then it must be wrong
i know we talk about how the " life-saving rescue work" is a joke and not effective.
well, here is good example involving a faithful eldub... i meet a contractor at work.
he knows one of my co-workers who is an elder, and nice btw.
We really are that low on the totem pole
it was 11 days after i received the email from my sister, informing me that she is no longer going to communicate with me.. i was never a jw, so i don't fully comprehend this decision, nor do i understand the games jw's play.. i talked to my mom yesterday, and she (baptized within last year) is getting more and more fed up with the nonsense.
she has been trying to get everyone to come together, and she is seeing more and more extreme behavior from my sister and her husband.
my mom is blaming my brother in law, but my sister has clearly spoken up and said she is speaking for herself also.
It is all a game. I am disfellowshipped, but my elder father and pioneer mother communicate with me everyday. Your sister probably thinks Jehovah will give her great blessings for cutting you off.

Life Everlasting in the Freedom of the sons of God. I read it every March before the Memorial. I threw away every JW book (including my bible) but I cannot part with that book. I also loved Faith on the March by Mcmillon
