what are your favorite urban legends that you heard as a jw?.
here's mine:.
a brother, through his work, was asked to give a speech to the united nations.
There is also the story about the two sisters that are in service and come to the door of a serial rapist/murderer. Later on, after the guy is caught, he tells the police the reason he didn't harm those two JW ladies was because of the great big guy standing behind them. It was an angel protecting them, or so they say.....
Love these kind of threads.
i'm sure many of you have been wondering why the wts has stuck to it's adamant viewpoint of higher education.
let's settle it once and for all.
this will prove conclusively why it's in young people's best interests to avoid higher education.. candace conti has inspired hundreds, perhaps thousands of young girls across america to successfully take on the wts.
I think the hallucinatory drugs can help her put it in "lamens terms" for everyone. It's LAYMAN'S terms. Seems like Recovery is a product of the WTBS policy on Higher Education---LOL.
I
finally opened my eyes about a month ago.. born in male from texas.
mid 20's.
suffered/suffer from general anxiety which i feel is a direct result from my childhood and teenage years in the org.
WELCOME!!! You will be amazed at how peaceful your life will become in time.
Me and the hubby may be there.
how long do i let it last????
he called my dad the next day and he said it was basically a distant grunt....until those magical words (sorry sparlock) "i was reinstated last night"....and then tinkerbell started spreading her fairy dust and all was well....my son is still hopeful he can still fade and will quickly rattle off to me the short list of successful faders he knows that have a pretty normal life.....i told him i so want to tell dad and my ex and the other most self-righteous ones that he is just like me and figured it all out by himself despite my best efforts to wake him up for years!!!!!.
but that would be toooooooooooooo easy toooooooo in your face doncha think???
Good for him! Now, he can begin the fade. I wish him much success.
hi all you fellow michiganders.. i wanted to make you aware that the meetup site entitled, "ex-jehovah's witnesses of michigan" will not be disolved.
i decided since today was the last day before it would be no more, i should step up, and so i gladly did.. seeing that there has not been one meetup since it's inception, i plan to change that.
i know there is at least one person from here who is registered with our meetup.
AKM-I am not on the Meetup site yet. But, meeting you and the others sounds wonderful. I am unable to attend this weekend, work project. But, the places you mentioned aren't very far from me. I'll check out the meetup site .

I'm interested. I"m in Lansing.
I like to drink canned Pepsi. Before I drink it, I put it in the freezer for about an hour so that it can get super cold.
Yes, me and the hubby got into an argument about my putting my can of Pepsi in the freezer. Still not sure what the real issue was
coz it teaches that life exists on other planets.
grease.
think it was banned in a watchtower.
At my congregation back in the 80's-anything by Michael Jackson was banned because he DA'd himself. It was mentioned that it would be like inviting him into your home to visit if you played his records/cassettes. And I LOVED me some Michael Jackson-still do.
i like the "sudductive woman with long dark hair", for one.
very funny pictures..
My favorite is the one that every 'wordly' person is evil, selfish, hateful and greedy.
LMAO--JWs are the epitome of clean wholesome living, girl or boy next door type, sitting round in a circle playing guitar... I've never been around anyone playing a guitar unless he was on stage at a concert-LOL
