A New Breed Of JW Emerging?
by Englishman inis there a new breed of jw emerging, i wonder?.
i know that there are lots of real brainwashed dubs around who see demons behind every car boot sale item and who scuttle off to the elders with every bit of tittle-tattle imaginable, but, i think that there is a new type of dub who quietly does just as he / she pleases.. this is what i think: many of the long-serving jw's who have seen the 1975 failure and the 1914 generation change are now approaching old age with something of a jaundiced eye, and are choosing to do their own thing in their remaining years.
in conversations i am picking up it seems that the elders are being regarded somewhat derisively by many jw's.

anyone else ever feel like this??
by lydia ini've been mulling over this and i'm finding that its common with several of my extended family who were raised in the org.
- seems that the feeling of never doing enough for the org.
( to obtain a place in the "new system" ) has spilled over into other areas of our lives.

butt-bruisin' CO puffed-up with CO2
by wheelwithinwheel intwenty years ago our congregation had to live with a real butt-bruising presiding overseer.
he had plenty of counsel for everyone.
when ministerial servants or other elders were on the platform, giving a talk, he would raise his hand and comment, even when the km didnt suggest audience participation.

new assembly procedure?
by wheelwithinwheel ina brother just told me about a new assembly procedure.
during the program at his d.c. this past week-end (cornwall, ontario) the chairman asked everyone to pick up their belongings and leave the stadium immediately.
everyone gathered in a nearby park.

Urban Legends!
by ISP inits amazing the extent these circulate in the wt world.
i am not so sure, but it develops a powerful folklore amongst jws....often with a moral at the end!
typically these circulate as experiences given in talks and are then adopted by the masses as truth.. for example, anyone hear the ul about the married couple where the wife had to have a routine blood check.

I agree, LW: Women Should Know Their Proper Place!
by JanH inlike lonewolf, i am much dismayed at the haughty nature of many women on this site.
what is this world coming to, when women dont know their correct position in subjection to men?.
thankfully, gods channel of communication to mankind (tm, patent pending) have always been aware of the matter and addresses the respective positions of men and women.
