Jehovah's Witnesses as "a people......"
by ScoobySnax inwho out of all you nasty old apostates (tm) will agree with me, that if you take the gb that you dislike so much, and the watchtower that you hate out of the picture, will agree with me that at the end of the day, and on the whole, jw's really are a good bunch of people.
i did my same old rekky last sunday at the gillingham convention, and will have a good look around next sunday at twickenham convention.
i've been in lots of crowds, at stadiums and arenas, but an assembly is something else, it is somehow unique, its somehow different from any other crowds, there is a deep sense of "togetherness" i've not see any where else.

You can strip everything else away from the Witnesses, but I don't think you can take that away.
What do you think......?

Anyone going to GILLINGHAM Convention 2moro?? (Kent, UK)
by dorayakii injust come back from the first day of the gillingham, kent, uk convention.
it was the first convention there, because i think they wanted to take the pressure off the twickenham rugby stadium... my cong was assigned to twickenham stadium, not to gillingham, but i "volonteered" was volonteered by our po (the same one who's on a rampage to appoint me as a "mini"... .
i didn't do much today, was assigned to car park duty, then went to sit down for the 1st and 2nd talks... took some notes, then decided to walk around to look for "poztates"... i didn't find any... (we should have a way of noticing each other), i didn't write my name or cong on my badge, so i thought that might be a little sign which might go un-noticed by the r&f, but i didn't attract any attention apart from a couple sisters who looked at me and called me "brother blank"... .

You know Steve, at the risk of getting some wrath here, a "good witness" (tm) was given by the whole thing even if by just some. I came back to work today and the domestic on my ward who lives next door to the stadium in Gillingham said she'd never seen such a crowd of such well behaved, polite people coming in and out of the stadium, and that she wished Witnesses rather than football fans came every week!. She said she spent some time talking to them from her front garden as they walked past. Also even more suprising was the comment from my P.A, she is a Mormon and lives close by too, she said that she was dreading the "invasion" of 8000 witnesses, but as it turns out found them to be co-operative, polite and so very well "organised" and that it reminded her own church and how well they "behaved"......Praise indeed from a Mormon......lol I think "Organisation" is an even bigger word in the Mormon world.....
....Anyway I enjoyed it.
Be good Bro.

with baited breath here......... ;-)
ya know I never knew of your parking place at Beechings Way in Gillingham in the field. I just wound up the local neighbourhood by parking in a street near by along with 8000 others..........Blimey they must hate us even more!! I had to walk a mile to get to the stadium.

She's a fag hag little toe........ha ha
No just kidding, she's my best friend who came along, and I loves her to bits! I used to love Zante too, last time I went there in 1999 it had got too lively and Spain-ified. I think in a few years Kefalonia will follow, which will be a shame.......so enjoy it while I can!
Hope you are doing ok LT.

Thanks for the comments. And seriously, if you ever get the chance to get to the Greek Islands, book up for Kefalonia, its just to the west of the Greek mainland in the Ionian Sea. It really is beautiful and unspoilt. We hired a car out and travelled around the Island finding hidden coves and beaches that just had little shacks on them that served just freshly caught fish and maybe an ouzo or beer. Its my 3rd time there, but I absolutely have fallen in love with the place.
