They keep their eyes open for those who are going through emotional troubles, and strike at those. That was how they got my mother to be one. In her case, my older sister, she was 5 at the time when she died. They lied and told her that with 1975 coming she would again get to see her little girl. 1975 came and went, and my sister was still dead. I think it it were me, I would have left way back then, on the grounds of a lieing, and I would have seen about a lawsuit. I'm sure there has to be something about a breach of contract there somewhere.

What tactics do the Witnesses get the worldly people curious?
by Iamallcool ini will tell you one, i do remember one brother that was doing some street work, he was standing while he only showed the very back page of the magazines and his tactic did work more than you think and they asked him what the magazine was all about.

I was in a congregation back around 1985 or was it 86, anyway, I was in a congregation that was burned down. The person who was responsible for it was never a JW, his ex-wife was though. When he learned that his ex-wife was going to get remarried he was first going to burn down the kingdom hall, then kill both is ex-wife and her fiancé. What stopped him from killing her was when he torched the kingdom hall, a couple of my class mates saw this and called the police.

If I were hearing voices to tell me to do that, I would tell them to bugger off, and to get the bleep out of my head.

As far as I'm concernied, I don't give a dam what they do. They are very disfunctional, and even if they did leave it, they are not welcomed around my husband, children, or my home. They put me through hell and nearly came close to splitting my husband and me up, and even made an attempt to kidnap my children once. Thanks, but no thanks. As far as I'm concerned they can live the lie and die in it, and stay the hell away from me.

That is not nessarly night time, and I highly doubt it was. First if it was raining, that would make it dark, but most importantly there are no windows to let in any daylight.

Warwick update!
by DATA-DOG ina bethel worker recently commented that the gb's wish is for warwick to be completed 3 years from this summer.
the shortage of workers has moved the gb to even accept 50+ year old jw's as volunteers.
they are trying to get it done before the big " a" i guess.

That is nothing new, them saying we are living in the last days. Back in the 1980's they would always say, "We are living in the last minutes, of the last days." My friend who was of the anointed, would always tell me and everyone else, if we actually knew how close we are to the end, we would just pass out from fright. Yea she said those world. She was an older woman, so I don't know if she is still around (living) or not.

I have often wondered why they only have 66 different books in the bible. To me that makes it very suspicious.

For anyone who lives around the Joplin, Missouri area
by Tameria2001 inmy aunt sent me a message, and was letting me know that the joplin, missouri humane society is looking for people who can either adopt or foster a pet.
so far the total of animals, mostly dogs and puppies, is 614, and they are desperately looking for people who can either foster or adopt a pet.
i would adopt one, but i just adopted a dog a month ago, and he don't like other dogs at all.

Your earliest doubt?
by Apognophos inthis might be an unfair question for those who have been out of the organization for decades, but i'm wondering if any of you remember your earliest doubt -- maybe something odd that occurred to you as a kid (if you were a jw then).
please try to limit to two doubts at the most :-).
i think my first "doubt" was simply realizing that at the time of the flood, every animal that wasn't in the ark died (well, besides the fish, supposedly).

My earliest doubt was when I was a teen, I only wished I had paid closer attention to it. Around 1984 to 1986, I attened the Durant, Okahoma congeration. I was treated like I had something that no one else wanted to catch. The witnesses who belonged to that congeration, treated me like an outsider. I was in high school at the time, and had no friends either in school or in the congeration. I was treated so bad that I actually tried, and nearly succeded in commiting sucide. My own mother had her own problems, with dealing with cancer as well at that time. I was not yet baptized.
Then history repeated itself when I was just married to my husband. I moved to where he was living, and that congeration is Carthage, Missouri. Shorty after I was married, the C.O. and his wife (who was a total bitch) came for their visit. I had briefly met this woman at another congeration, but she did not know that I had just gotten married. Instead of saying what ever, she walked up to me and rudely asked me, "What are you doing here?" Then she went on to say, "You need to quit looking for a single brother and just go back to were you came from." It was at that time my husband heard what was going on, and it pissed him off, and he yelled at her and told her to back the HELL OFF, that is my wife you are speaking to. Yes he actually said those exact words.
While I was attending that congeration I was again treated like an outsider, someone to be avoided.
It was at that point those doubts started to make me think about those people and that religion. They say we are a brotherhood, and talk about love among the brothers.
The final straw was when that same "love" was shown to my son, that was when I decided to research them.
