  Shunning (again!)

  by link in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  elswhere recently started a thread about shunning and i noted that at least ninety per cent of the posters to the thread were from the u.s.of a. and canada and they had had some bad experiences with the problem.. why should this be significant ?.

  well it seems to me that the shunning problem in america is far worse than here in the u.k. i know of several persons who have been dissed but i am not aware that shunning is a serious issue for them.

  can anyone tell me if shunning causes less of a problem here in the u.k. than it does other places in the world, and if so why?.

  as i sat quietly in my apartment...staring at the computer screen, i got this overwhelming feeling of being totally alone.

  don't get me wrong, i feel comfortable alone.

  but, how did i end up this way?

  Christian priorities and holidays

  by jurs in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  even when i was a jw i thought it odd that witnesses gave so much importance to holidays.

  when i was studying, i was bogged down with how awful they were because they are pagan and how wrong it was to celebrate.

  it seems to me like more attention was donated to the issue of holidays than what the meat of christianity is.

  Told my JW Story at AA Meeting

  by COMF in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was invited to be a guest speaker at the saturday night aa speaker's meeting.

  this meeting usually has a large crowd and they get somebody with longtime sobriety to come up and tell his story of "what i used to be like, what happened, and what i'm like now" as an example for others.

  i'll have eight years in january, so i guess that makes me fairly longtime.. i told them:.
