Ran into the JW table at San Diego airport...
by Confession inyes, my ladyfriend and i were entering the san diego airport for our flight home to phoenix late yesterday afternoon, when i noticed a forty-ish man and woman sitting down behind a table loaded with wts publications.
i stopped to glance over them with joy.
i made familiar comments about some of the publications, noting the newer soft covers and trying to casually engage the pair in conversation.

They Skipped our House
by Thirdson ina short while back i posted the conversation i had with two jw ladies where i challenged them to explain the doctrine (and pretty much the only unique doctrine) of 1914 from the bible.
well, last weekend another car group arrived in my road.
it was early saturday afternoon and i saw a car turning round using a neighbor's driveway.

The Reasoning Book is Inspired
by Thirdson inthat is what 2 jw ladies who came to my door recently told me..
to start at the beginning, periodically, these ladies have called and spoken to mrs thirdson but always on a week day.
mrs thirdson is always very polite and has accepted the mags saying that i might be interested in reading them but making it clear that we are christians and not interested in joining their religion.

Ex-JW's in Telford, Shropshire
by grahammaskill inhello, i am an ex-jw new to this site.
i was wondering if there was anyone from telford in shropshire, or indeed in the county of shropshire itself, that would like to drop me a line.
i have been out of the religion for some years now but even now am having to deal with the emotional repercussions.
