They are Sooooooooo Over-rated !!
by ScoobySnax inever listened to someone who goes on and on about someone or something (and i don't mean jehovah's witnesses here!
) like they were the best thing since sliced bread.....and try as you might you just can't see the attraction?.
my brother-in law must have every sodding elvis record/picture/memorabilia thing going, and he goes on and on about him.

"Jehovah our Rock, our strength, and our might..."
by Fleur inin among the bags and boxes of keepsakes that my mother gave to me from my grandmother's belongings, something of an emotional nuclear bomb was hiding on me.
or more like a landmine; because i didn't realize the damage it could do until it was too late to do anything about it.
mom had given me first choice of most of grandma's things, knowing how close we were, and i had wanted the box of ancient k-mart brand cassette tapes, now 30 years old, which had recordings of her voice, and mine, when i was tiny.

jw meetings and obedience to the society
by boy@crossroads inin what ways does each of the jw meetings play a part in instilling obedience to the mother organization?
or maybe put another way, how does each weekly jw meeting contribute to the overall jw mindset?.
this thought came to me whilst drifting in and out of the watchtower study this morning.. ministry school: helps jws strengthen their speaking skills for better defending their beliefs.

Is it worse when they say it or worse when they don't?
by Sirona inwe met a jw at the supermarket.. he is the guy who my hub pioneered with for a few years.
they were "big shots" together when they went where the "need is greater" back in the early nineties.
so when we saw him he did that really annoying thing.

Cute but very disturbing... Send your kid a letter from Santa...
by Elsewhere ini love to get into the whole christmas spirit thing, but i never take it to the point of lying to or deceiving children about it.
i try to teach kids that it is the spirit of christmas that matters... then i saw this thing.
parents are actively trying to deceive their kids by offering them "proof" that santa is real.
