Mean or just obedient
by Debz inwas thinking bout xmas and all just recently when i wondered if anyone has had my experience of `meanness`..we all know that xmas, birthdays and easter are outta bounds for jw`s and when my parents started to study (when i was 8) we were told that although xmas`s etc would`nt be the same it would be made up for during the year - guess what it never was!.
now being english folks and all i know they can be inclined to be a bit sparing on the pennies but hell are they mean....no way known do they go outta their way to give anyone a gift for anything!
i don`t think this is a good way to live for anyone - it teaches people to be mean hearted and is not a sign of love...i think!

The coming "disassociations"
by Elsewhere ini have seen several threads about how the elders are going to be going around asking people if they still consider themselves to be jehovah's witnesses.
this will undoubtedly result in multiple da announcements in the coming months.
i'm curious how the average jw will perceive this and respond to it.

What Would You Have Done?
by Dutchie inthere was a middle-aged woman in our kingdom hall who was a long time pioneer.
she was a very warm and loving woman and so when she announced her plans for a family vacation one year some of us got together and took up a little collection so that she would have some extra money to spend.
after all, she was working hard for jehovah and werent we supposed to show our appreciation?.

Mom - Why do you treat me like the damned!
by zenpunk innot that my mom would ever visit this site - but i have to just vent.
last night my mom promised she would meet me at home to help me move some furniture.
she made it seem like it was a tremendous deal and the only reason why she would be by would be because she had something else to do in the neighbourhood.

Assemly food tickets - WHY??
by home_and_dry ini was laying in bed last night thinking how lucky i am that i havent had to undergo the mental torture of attending the district convention.
then i started reminiscing about the old days and i suddenly remembered those ridiculous tickets you had to buy to pay for food.
they were those brown cheap cardboard type efforts with i think 10 tickets per sheet.

They're everywhere
by Elders_Kid ini went to work last night and stopped by the employee break room and you'll never guess what i found... a copy of the watchtower and awake!!!
of course i immediatly filed them in the trash can, but seeing them there has raised quite a concern for me.. you see the problem is that i work at a correctional facility, and all entrances are completely secured.
that means that one of the officers left the magazines one the table, and the bad part is that it appears as if someone had been reading one of them.
