Love of the Governing Body
by IMHO inat a recent sad the visiting bethel brother after passing on the love of the branch committee (which is bad enough, they used to say the 'bethel family' didn't they), he then made it worse (for me) by adding that he has also been told to pass on the love of the governing body.. that doesn't sit quite right with me but i can't really explain why.
any thoughts?.

Do elders who get disfellowshipped blab about judicial committee's they served on?
by donnye inhas anyone ever worried about confessing something to the elders, only to find that they spend the next 25 years worrying that if those elders in 'the know' leave the organisation or get disfellowshipped, maybe they couldn't care less about making your misdemeanor public knowledge.
"if i'm going down, i'll take everyone i can with me".. i still worry about this scenario, and even though two of the elders in my case have died of old age, i will only feel really relieved once the last one does.. maybe current elders blab about the congregation members too.
i sincerely hope they would be too scared to do this in case there is an official complaint made against them for defamation of character and breaking a fellow believers confidence..

Am I Being Selfish?
by MrFreeze inas i watched "it's a wonderful life" for the 100th time, i couldn't help but notice the similarities between me and george bailey.
okay, maybe i've never helped finance somebodies house or helped people the way george was able to help people.
maybe it's an awful comparison.

by Lady Viola infarmville is a very popular facebook game everywhere, also in the netherlands.
i personally hate it, so i ignore every object that fb friends wants to sell to me.
but i have noticed lately that active jw's, even the very serious ones, play farmville with disfellowshipped persons.

Present day, did you have one and why?
by equinox inas a mother of two young children when i came in the truth, i felt so guilty about no birthdays or christmases, i made up to them by present days.
i usually had one on my wedding anniversary in october and one at the start of the summer holidays.
i never really excepted the no birthday rule but went along with it ( put my reasoning head in the sand} and i always loved christmas.
