I Am Legend JW email
by Descender inso my sister-in-law, who is a pretty hardcore jw, showed me an email that looked like it had been passed around quite a bit, so i figured someone on here had probably seen it.
supposedley it's a picture from the movie "i am legend" where will smith is walking through new york and all the buildings in the background are in ruins except for the bethel building, which stands out, undamaged and clean.
i watched the movie and don't remember seeing anything like that so i just figured that some jw photoshopped it and sent it out to the jw community to show that the bethel building is protected by god even in a post apocaliptical world run over with zombie vampires.

Marrying Young
by Descender insomething has been bothering me as of late.
my younger brother, who is 17 years old plans on getting married right after he turns 18 this upcoming year.

Witness memory
by Descender inhave any of you had a similar occurrence when you were a witness as this?
i was 18 years old and had taken a trip with my witness buddies to new york.
one of them had been drafted into bethel and we decided to go along to tour the place and visit new york and patterson.

(Fluff) Bald Heads
by Descender inso, yeah.
this isn't a religious topic or even important, but i figured that there were so many other posts about miscillaneous subjects that i'd post my own.
i have a receding hairline, so i shave my head twice a week or so and i usually keep a goatee.

Fitting In
by Descender indid anyone else have a hard time fitting in with non-witnesses when you left the witnesses?
i never had a hard time fitting in with witnesses since i grew up as one, i was always popular in witness circles and could usually strike up an easy conversation with someone as long as i knew they were a witness.
but i just can't find any common points of interest with anyone anymore since i've been disfellowshipped twice and then finally faded away a year and a half ago.

social skills and JW's
by Descender init occured to me the other day that many jehovah's witnesses have very bad social skills outside of the kindom hall.
my brother, who still goes to meetings but isn't a strong believer, and his wife, who is a 4th generation jw with very stong beliefs and a very self righteous attitude asked my wife and i if we'd like to go for a hike at a local national park the other day.
i faded years ago and my wife is not and has never been a jw and isn't religious.

Strange Situation
by Descender inhey all, so over the past three months i've been going to the highest mountain to the depths of hell trying to win my wife back against the better judgement of everyone that knows anything about my situation.
anyway, the other night i went to the strip club where she works as a cocktail waitress and while i was there she introduced me to a stripper that used to be a jw.
she sat down with me and talked about jw lies and who we knew from old congregations and such.
