New CO talk: Be loyal to Org. even if you get weird instructions or can prove them wrong doctrinally!
by sir82 intheme was something about "loyalty to jehovah's visible organization".. i have neither the time nor inclination to summarize the whole thing, but a few points stood out:.
even if it causes you personal hardship.
example: joshua & caleb returned from spy trip to promised land with good report, but were "outvoted" by the other 10 spies.

The Gong Show
by JWinprotest ini was watching youtube clips last night of old game shows, the gong show was one of them.
made me think how wonderful it would be if the meetings had a similar theme........don't like the speaker?

Even with all the communication gadgets they have, they still say "we miss you"
by truthseeker ini was shopping the other day and heard my name called.
it's the elder that visited us last year, the one who was very concerned that we celebrated birthdays.. with a guilty expression on his face, he apologised for not having had time to see us then told me "we miss you, when are you coming back?".
i said nothing.. i can't stand the phrase "we miss you" - what's wrong with these people?

worst privelege ever?
by rockmehardplace incollecting money after every meeting.
i could never get someone to help, and i was always last to leave.
when i did finally have one person who would help, if i used them too often i got questions about why the two of us were always taking the contributions.

Most Annoying Things That Happen At JW Meetings
by LittleSister intoday i was remembering how angry i used to get at the meetings and all the little irritations that in the end would just make my blood boil these included:.
prayers that go on foreverstudy or wt conductors still taking comments when its clear that the point has been covered 20 times alreadymeetings over running by more than 5 minsmy favourite was this one elder who would play guess the point i am thinking of.
he would keep rephrasing the question from the wt until someone would bring up the point he was thinking of.

My family is trying to gather Intel on me......through my 5 yr old!!
by JWinprotest ini don't have conclusive evidence yet, but i'm pretty sure that my mom and siblings are asking my 5 yr old questions to find things out, such as, whether we attend meetings or not, if we celebrate holidays, do we go in service etc.. maybe i'm just being paranoid.....but i don't think so..

by make yourself inmine was filled with shock and anger but mostly anger.
it made me feel that way because i have never been lied to like that growing up in the religion with it being all you know.
