Do they try too hard to be 'normal?'
by LDH init has occurred to me recently, that a lot of the behavior of jws in good standing is done to trick themselves and others into thinking they're normal.
when in fact, they're not.. example:.
when a young jw man goes to a 'gathering' he will drink one beer loudly and proclaim how good cold beer is!

My husband embarrassed me this weekend....
by LDH in....without even knowing it.. we went to a wedding saturday night and sat next to a close friend who is dating the mother of the groom.. he is white, and the groom's mom is half filipina/half mexican.
he was telling my hubby and me how in love with her he is, but he was worried about overcoming 'cultural' differences.. then my hubby tells him it's no big deal we also had to overcome big cultural differences.
(i think he's gonna say how he grew up poor in the south bronx, i was traveling the world or how he was a college basketball star, i never finished college, or how he's black, i'm 1/4 black and never made any effort to identify with 'black churches' or "naacp" or something.....).

The JDubs and Amway--a match made in hell......
by LDH inthere are many perceptive posters here who have picked up on the mlm amway/jdub connection.. however, there are some who are not familiar with what we are talking about.
i thought for them it would be nice to list some similarities between the two organizations.. btw, amway has a new line of business, they're calling it quixtar.
so if you get approached for this, be aware it's just amway.

Ask for your "Ordained Minister" ID C...
by LDH inwith all of the discussion going on on the board lately about "all jw being ordained ministers," i thought i'd point out something that may be new to a lot of you.. your local congregation has wbts id cards which states the 'cardbearer is an ordained minister.
' they won't volunteer these to you, i had to reg pio for two years before i got mine.
however, they can come in handy when traveling!

'Legally Blind' JW pensioner who 'loves to read'
by LDH in* http://members.fortunecity.com/liz1948/mylittlecorneroftheweb/id1.html.
i am not presuming to know all of the details of this lady's life.
however, it did ring a bell with me because there were many in my congregation who pioneered while being supported on welfare etc.. their claims of being so sick as to not be able to work, oddly enough did not disqualify them from 'pioneering.'.
