  Rush's 2112

  by TheClarinetist in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my fiancee and i were discussing what rush's 2112 is.

  for those of you that don't know, 2112 is a piece, about 20 minutes long, divided into 7 movements.

  we can't quite agree on what to call it... "song" doesn't live up to the full effect, as it has more in common with an oratorio than a pop song.

  "_____ Is No Longer One Of Jehovah's Witnesses."

  by BroMac in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  im not exactly sure when this change came in, but when i was a kid i remember it either being.

  "____ has been disfellowshipped or dissasociated".

  if someone has been announced to the congregation as no longer a jw then they are the same as any other non-jw.

  Have You Ever Gone To Meetings While Under The Influence Of Booze Or Drugs?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i had an italian elder friend that regularly drank his wine (daily) and it was obvious that on some thursday or tuesday evenings, he was clearly under the influence of alcohol.

  quite often, we would have a 3:00 sunday afternoon elder's meeting and once again, i could tell he had been drinking.. nobody ever brought it up but i knew him well and he loved his vino and martinis!.

  we had a number of people on meds that would either act like zombies at the meetings or cry or get aggressive.

  The Little Aggravations: Things I Don't Miss

  2. friends

  there are some major problems with the jws, doctrinally, socially, and organizationally.

  from shunning to crazy elder bodies to guilt trips, there are many things that were really bad.

  this thread is devoted to the small, insignificant things that just really really irked you.
