3 minutes and it was over....
by LyinEyes inthis is just a side thought about us disassociating ourselves last nite, it took all of three minutes.. 35 years of my life being a jw, same for wild, 11 yrs of him being an elder and it all came down to two men of the phone to finalize our departure.. what i find strange about this, is that not once did they ask us to reconsider, or if we would think about it for a couple of days and then we could get back with them.
they didnt ask for one more shepherding call, they didnt say goodbye, they didnt say we would be missed.
they were so formal almost like robots with no feeling.

friend's encounter with jws,this may interest U.
by badboy in.
my friend was swiddling with his car when he noticed a group of jws going door to door, one of them (a lady) approached him and said they wanted to interest him in the bible etc etc.. he said that jesus christ was the head of his household so he couldn't accept wt publications.. he also said u should pratise your faith or something similiar.. he also made an interesting observation,all the jws were carrying laptop computers!.
the idea,being they could beam images onto your living room wall or insert a cd rom into the laptop to show u things.. my friend believes they r carrying out a test run using laptops in their ministry.. is he right?.

YOU ARE A GOAT!
by professor inwhen i "engaged in the worldwide preaching activity"(tm) i was told i was doing a seperating work (namely seperating the sheep from the goats).
i understand this jw doctrine has changed.
who are the sheep and goats now according to wts and why is field service no longer the seperation work?.

ELDER'S WIVES AND CHILDREN
by minimus inhave you ever noticed how some elder's families are the worst example in the congregation?
some wives lord it over the rest and think they are special , while some kids get away with all sorts of things because of big daddy.
have you ever had a problem because an elder's family got away with something and you got blamed for it?

For JW's...Where in the Bible does it say...
by Wolfgirl in...that men are not allowed to grow beards?.
i don't know if this is true where you live, but where i used to live, it was against "policy" for brothers to have beards.
any man who did have one was looked down upon.

What "SIN" do elders respond to fastest?
by Dismembered in.
maybe it's just me but, it seem like "elders" respond extremely quickly to "sexual misconduct" as long as it does not involve their own family members.
true or false?

THE GARBAGE MAN COMETH (or Wait On Jehovah)
by abbagail inmany at the silent lambs' site are sick of hearing the jws say, "wait on jehovah.
" in replying to a post about "waiting on jehovah," i went off on a little story telling venture, and this is what came out... contributed for entertainment purposes... grits :-).
the witnesses are probably thinking of scriptures like ps.
