Serious Question
by Prisca inas we all know the society has very strict guidelines regarding conduct between the sexes.
in the cong i grew up in, it was so small-minded that if you were single, and seen talking to a member of the opposite sex, you were presumed to be in some sort of relationship with him/her.. sex before marriage is out of the question, with heavy petting also looked down upon.
dating is a serious affair, with all onlookers expecting engagement/marriage to be the outcome.

Witnet Refugee
by Prisca inthose of you familar with witnesses.net may have seen me around the site, i've been posting there since early last year, and recently i was a moderator for a short time, before its sudden closure.. i was raised in the truth, daughter of a one-time elder and am a third generation jw.
i have seen a lot of changes in the society, some for the better, many for the worse.. i am now inactive, have not been to a meeting since the memorial earlier this year and not been in active witnessing since january 99.. so i am more out than in, though i have a few family members that are still witnesses, so i try not to put myself in the situation where i could be df'd.
(easy, avoid the elders!

Just want to get past it........
by notsureofmyself ini appreciate so much of what is being said here, but frankly i just want it done with.
i don't even care if their doctrines are right or not, their conduct, their conditional love and their hypocrisy is definitely wrong.. i have given up looking for a church that has the answers, there is none.
there are no perfect churches, doctrines or people.

I'm sure I already know the answer, but...
by puppylove inwhy is it that most r&f witness can take anything the gb dishes out and swallow it whole?.
my mil takes everything she reads in the wt and calls it "meat in due season".
i guess this week's wt is about patience.

Does anyone else find this strange?
by RedhorseWoman invenus williams, the jw tennis star is at the olympics where she won a gold medal.
she has her picture in the news carrying the american flag.. all i can say is.....huh?
why is it perfectly okay for her to engage in nationalistic activities without censure?
