I WILL play this CD in my house....my wife will be fuming when she hears the "give all your money to the Kingdom Hall" line! What a stupid talk to be doing the rounds.

I went to the meeting to please my ageing mother, big deal "Steve2" for a gay your always very critical of others...have some understanding....she's sad I don't attend anymore so I gave her some happiness.
Fair point, Witness 007. Although if a comment is unkind, it's unkind whether said by anyone, regardless of orientation. I admit my comment was unkind. Part of what I said was actually tongue-in-cheek. I'm well aware of how emotionally persuasive mothers can be! Even so, each son or daughter will have their personal limits on how much compliance their mother can extract from them! Go well.

That is very, very true and it applies to many situations, not just JW stuff. You have to set your own limits of what you will take as an adult.

The one time that I heard Samuel Herd in person he talked about disfellowshipping and about love. He said, "If you mother is disfellowshipped, you must love her less." So much for honoring your father and your mother.......

Brother: So he tells me he'll fly down and visit me....
Herd: He then goes on to say how happy brothers will be who "gave all their money to the Kingdom Hall instead of loosing it at Armagedon."
Well 007, it sounds like your "friend" won't be able to come for a visit after he gives all his money to the Kingdom Hall.
Drew: If this is how much of the other GB thinks, there will be no JWs in 50-60 years (at least, there will not be very many).
Zombie: Actually, I'm all for these crazy whacked out diatribes from the GB. It helps illustrate to people just how crazy this cult is.
Wow, looks like Herd is in 2nd place on the craziest GB list... right after #1 Losch, and #3 Lett.

This reminds me of the "Left Behind" series of books. Typical fundamentalist zealot, frustrated and perplexed over why his fornicating neighbors haven't yet been tortured to death by God while the fundamentalist looks on with a grin, creates the scenario he is obsessed with in his own head. It's Christian sado-massochistic porn. This jackass would probably get a hard-on watching "The Passion of The Christ".

You know, I’m so glad I used all my money to pay for the Kingdom Halls, I’m so glad because now that money is no good. And I used my money to help pay for that Kingdom Hall, and I sat down in there and I got the education. I was sitting in that Armageddon survival class that they had at that Kingdom Hall. They had a class on Tuesday, they had a class on Thursday, they had a class on Sunday, and I was at every last one of them. And now I’m getting ready to go through Armageddon and I’m confident that I have been properly educated, and I’ve trained myself to run, and I’m ready for Armageddon, because I used everything I had to support the Kingdom. I used my funds,I didn’t try to hold back anything knowing that that money was not going to be any good.
Here's what you should do: Call the man who studied with you and invited you to hear this talk. Tell him you've thought about it at length, and you want to know if he feels the counsel was in line with Jehovah's thinking. Of course he'll say it was, and then ask him, have you given all your money to the Watchtower Society without holding anything back, like he said we should?
Then watch him squirm...keep pressing him. Let us know how this turns out.
