Ladies: Circumcision or not?

by Wonderment in

the topic of circumcision has been brought up a few times recently.

then i wondered... .

how do women really view circumcision?

Sabin

So that useless bit of skin at the end of the penis is called the foreskin? I always thought it was called a man!

Seriously, I cant believe that any woman would have a hang up about it. WTF. Isn't it about the person. Quite frankly I couldn't give a rats arse weather my husband was or no. I love him for himself. I would not have my son circumcised if I had one unless it was necessary. I don't like the idea of putting a child through needless pain. However I grew up in one culture others grew up in another & guess that is what your indoctrinated with, we all know what that is like.

I'm interested though to ask do many of the JW's in America have their sons circumcised? If so, Why?

by wwjdnwt in

i don't post here too much..i am more of a lurker.

but, wanted to share recent conversation with jw family member.. one of my jw relatives recently went to visit another jw relative that is "serving where the need is great",.

when my jw relative returned home and i was talking with him, who is an older jw who has been in for over 50 years, was so excited to tell me about the special talk.

Stuckin, "why do they keep asking for ice-cream money?" Because they are the most Greedy Bastards.

The Curious Case Of Brother B

by pale.emperor in

there was a case in my old congregation that is shrouded in mystery that i'd like to share and get your views.

this is something i've wanted to talk about for years but it's strongly shot down if you even try to talk about it in my old congregation.. it involves a certain brother b.. in my old congregation this brother was well liked.

as a kid, we all knew him for being fascinated with dinosaurs.

maybe having a son of his own gave him the courage to speak up about what an elder did to him when he was a boy. We all know who the elders would side with on that one a.

Intro

by hillfy333 in

hi, although i signed up two years ago, and filled out the "interview with an apostate" as hillfy54321, i have since only read various posts.

then purchased a new computer and lost my password, thus no new posts.

i have since reapplied, and now go under the handle of hillfy 333.. a little about myself.

Sabin

Hello Hillfy, it is so incredibly nice to meet you. Look forward to hearing more.

Saturday Let the Games Begin

by Poztate in

the start of a new memorial season is upon us.

saturday is the day for the start of the invites to look but not touch the bread and wine.

the "observer class" is a belief unique to jehovah's witnesses.. along with the invite to the masses a special effort is being made this year by the elders to invite all the df's, da's and faders.. along with the invite a copy of the rtj will be left with them.. naturally we will still be treated as pariah's if we do attend but it is the thought that counts.. i am of the "fader class" as i don't wish to rock the boat with my wife and extended family.

I am so glad that you have all put this on here cause I didn't know. The other day my husband got me up early & out the door cause he had a feeling they would show up. Yes they did, left flowers & chocolates for me. My husband dealt with texting them & god help them if they start trying to push me around this time. He isn't the soft touch they think he is. Not anymore.

What Happens To You When You Die?

are our dead loved ones watching over us at all or are they really just gone now?

What about the Akashic Records, the belief that each person leaves behind an indelible record of themselves impressed- upon sub-atomic material & that this record can be accessed if one has the ability to tune in at that particular vibrational level.

Does anyone know the themes of this year's circuit and district conventions?

by mamacita29 in

i'm trying to get a jump ahead for my colleague.

i am making progress though and she is now willing to listen to logic.

logic and reasoning is like kryptonite to jw's.

Sabin

Freddo, you are so cool man. I split my sides laughing.

lf you had the opportunity to ask the GB a question what would it be?

by atomant in

l thought this would be an interesting exercise to read the different responses.

my question is what makes you think your gods chosen medium?and prove it.

do you think it is easier for an elder to wake up to the wtbts because of the position he is in which gives him access to info that the rank & file would not be privy to, or do you think it would be harder for him to wake up because of all the prestige/power/admiration he receives as a result of being an elder, or does it come down to something else entirely?.
