  What's the latest status on ol' Brother Prince Rogers Nelson?

  by NoRegrets in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  i was last affiliated with a minneapolis area congregation a few years back.

  we saw prince and the larry graham entourage at a sunday meeting once and at many assemblies and conventions.

  i know he was affiliated with a congregation in a city named chanhassen at one time.

  help appreciated...any success or failures at truly conscious efforts to make new friends after a life in jwland? As a very social person i still only seem to have ex-dubs as my new friends...

  as a jw...at least if you were social...you could walk into about any hall and find other social jw's you could become friends with...yes they are conditional...perhaps more so than other friends, but i did have some great friends there and i still miss them.

  since my wake up....then departure....now df status....i realize that i have had only seven or so real friends and five were found here..... five are fairly local, one is far away, and one is an old high school friend i have reconnected with (lives a thousand miles away).....and i have met some nice people through these friends but they are more aquaintances than close friends.

  the bar scene did not really get me anywhere with guys or girls...and i tried meetup.com but as of yet have not connected with anyone....so what worked for you?

  the new, new, new, new light on the generation: just believe it -- or else!.

  the watchtower, august 1st, 2001 issue, page 14, paragraph 8:.

  "first, since oneness is to be observed, a mature christian must be in unity and full harmony with fellow believers as far as faith and knowledge are concerned.

  The Watchtower hates the word, "You"

  dozy brought up a good point a few months back about how the wt uses third party terminology to obscure their real motives.

  i thought it was a good idea to revisit this wt writing technique.. (http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/184897).

  look at the nov 15th 2009 wt, "treasure your place in the congregation" and compare what happens when we replace the third party terminology (words in bold type) with first party words.
