1. jw
2. friends
growing up a jw, we always had family from out of town visit or we would go visit family.

it was fun to get together with my other jw cousins over christmas.

(however, it was hell going back to school in january as the only girl without a new sweater).. as a married jw though it was a different story.

Are you suspicious of LURKERS?
by VampireDCLXV in
1. jw
2. friends
we all know they're here but we don't really know who they are.. they are people who sign up here and then never comment (or rarely ever do).. doesn't that make any of you regulars here at the very least a tiny bit suspicious?.

why would a person sign up to a forum like this and then never say a damn thing?

it seems to me that there is a primary reason why some folks sign up and then never comment on anything: to spy.

Are You For Or Against The Death Penalty?
by minimus in
1. jw
2. friends
i clearly am for it if it's proven without a doubt that a person murdered another in cold blood.

recently, in connecticut, a man was convicted of killing 2 young girls and their mother.

the animal raped them and almost killed the defenseless husband/father who could do nothing while these atrocities were being carried out in his own home!.

[i'm sure this thread comes up several times a year by us noobs but it's new for me.

btw, i'm not advocating or opposing the celebration of holidays, just giving a perspective we've taken recently.].

DO YOU THINK THIS WOULD EVER BE A 'CONSCIENCE MATTER'?
by Mary in

2. medical
begin outter wrap scientists at mcmaster university, hamilton, ontario have been able to convert skin cells into blood cells.

this is very preliminary and i imagine it's going to be a few years before it's perfected, but i wonder what crooklyn's stand on this would be.

do you think they'd make this a 'conscience matter'?.

Yoga
by letsslatejws in
1. jw
2. friends
why was there such a fuss about not doing yoga?.

i did my first yoga class today and whilst you are encouraged to not think about your days worries, you can hardly consider this vacating your mind, so as to let satan in!

it was more about holding stretching limbs and simply holding poses (such as holding your leg out straight etc).
