  so, talking with my wife yesterday.

  she was out cart witnessing (barf) and one of the people she was with claimed to have know prince, or meet him or something like that.

  well anyways...they or her or someone (they are all braindoogled) speculated or fantasized that since prince did not have any relatives or something or the other.

  If you now think screwing around with people and playing games with their emotions and their psychological well being, then stop it and acknowledge it was wrong to yourself and others who might need this bit of information from this kind social behavior..

  A bit harsh. I'm assuming the people he's been seeing are men. Growing up as a witness for a gay man must be purgatory.

  Oh dear.

  Are you still married? What family have you got that are witnesses and how would you feel about cutting contact with them.

  The reason I ask is for the sake of your sanity I can only see this ending one way.

  And the sooner the better as you can then start living your life the way that you want to.

  george cook, omg, george f'ing cook, whattttt!.

  caption: elder george cook (right), one of the nine elders of the small 90-person congregation, said prince regularly ‘witnessed’ alone in the community and in groups.

  he was very detail oriented and very eccentric.

  I think it would be unfair to cremate him just because he's 81!

  "we are saddened to hear about the death of prince rogers nelson, who was baptized as one of jehovah’s witnesses in 2003," the church said in a statement obtained by people.

  the church said that prince "found fulfillment as a witness and in sharing his faith with others.

  I saw that same thing about cremated within a week, never heard that one before.

  It was the Daily Wail. Don't expect anything it says to be in any way accurate. Ever.

  Starting threads

  any chance of people resisting the urge to start new threads when the subject is already being discussed?.

  the prince threads are a good example.

  instead of one interesting to read thread with lots of replies you end up with forty threads with one or two replies.

  To be fair he is 81. Less a case of the mghty have fallen than a case of the mighty getting old and wanting a more settled life.

  Being Positive around family that are still in.

  by freddo in

  if you are a fader or you have reduced activity markedly - say resigned as a pioneer or an elder or ms or gone inactive and still have some relationship with your immediate family or spouse - how do you stay positive around them when you feel like shaking them out of their stupor but believe deep down it would be counter productive?.

  thoughts from all most welcome..

  Conversation ends with an eye roll and dispear. How do you reason with someone like that.

  You don't. You leave it alone. They have the right to their beliefs just as you have the right to yours.

  My mother is still a witness. I wouldn't dream of laying into her with whatever this week's forum hobbyhorse is. As long as she is happy that's fine by me.

  We talk about the kids, holidays or whatever. If I was constantly attacking her faith then it would make for a strained relationship and why on earth would I want that with my mother?
