Do witnesses quit smoking more easily?
by JH inwhy is it that witnesses can quit smoking quite easily compared to people of other religions?.
every new person who joined the organization who smoked said that they quit quite rapidly.
i heard some say that they tried to stop smoking and never was able to, but since they joined the jw's they were able to stop.. .

South East England - love of the greater number cooling off
by truthseeker inhi everyone, in the congregation i grew up in, it was very cold and unloving.
