  I wonder if they set up a 'dancing production committee' to organize this. Only those in good standing are allowed to dance awkwardly. Or the relatives of the line manager. 

  mm, lets all copy the world-lings!

  They will make the rank and file members believe Jehovah opened up a particular territory to them when, in fact, it was and always has been political lobbying. SHYSTERS!

  Site issues: Jan 02 Update (Sign In)

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  i've deployed a fix for people affected by sign-in issues caused by having multiple accounts associated with the same email address.

  here's how to activate the fix:.

  you must attempt to sign in using the email address associated with your account (not a username) and must have access to that mailbox.. if there are multiple accounts associated with the email address then you will be shown a warning message with the option to have an email sent to repair your account.. the email will contain a link to a page showing all the accounts associated with the same email address and allow you to select the one you want to be active (it will disassociate all the other accounts from the email address).. once you have completed the process then you should be able to sign in as normal.

  i heard a preist pose this question and i'll admit, it made me think.. if your neighbor had a dog and a monkey and his dog bite you.

  would you accept an apology from the neighbors monkey?.

  JWs Social Media and Alcohol

  by jw07 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a great part of social media's allure is that it makes some persons less conscious about revealing what interests them.

  i've noticed an interesting trend in how jws (that i know) express their use of alcohol.. i have around 600 associates on on facebook, and just over 100 on instagram.

  of that amount around 1/3 are jws, but i realise that they make the most posts about alcohol, and have the longest chain of comments on those posts.

  In our old cong alcohol was all they lived for. And not just young ones up to 30 odd. Even the po served a glass of wine or two after the book study. Every event there would be alcohol either smuggled in or bought at the venue. Something simple like the cinema turned into a 'drink what you brought ' event.

  I personally think that most JWs can not get through normal life without drinking. It would always amaze us that elders and their kids would be drunk at open air concerts, and nothing would be said of it at the next meeting. One elder got so drunk at an open air rendition of Macbeth, he threw an apple at the cast on stage and started to heckle them. Again, at the meeting, nothing was said. He even said the opening prayer. No one batted an eyelid!

  And yet paladin1, Jesus load was meant to be kindly and light.

  They are more like the temple merchants that Jesus drove out!

  Your favourite dog breed ...?

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. family

  in an earlier thread, i mentioned that i wasn't a particularly doggy person but that my parents got a husky last year that i've come to regard as a kind of brother.. huskies superficially resemble wolves and for me it's been fun to compare and contrast husky and wolf behaviour.

  huskies howl but rarely bark, and seem to have a strong prey drive and a strong pack instinct - a nod to their wild cousins.

  this is why i love huskies, i think.. do you have a favourite dog breed and why?.
