    And it won't make a blind bit of difference to the rank and file, young ones in particular. Bor-ing.

    Another couple used to be loved by their family and friends when they were in the world, but once they learned the truth - they were shunned.

    That line is actively offensive, this guy needs a good swift kick in his nucking futs...

    Let me condense every single e-mail sent by JWs that's ever been posted on this message board.

    Ignore EVERYTHING that's going on in life, ignore when brothers do bad things, ignore any information contrary to what JWs believe, ignore any doubts you might have.

    There's paradise close-by because we're in the end, ignore EVERYTHING and ONLY think about PARADISE.

    Example of two young brothers who were beaten and pressured to pray (in school). The young boy refused and told the headmaster, that he could not be a Witness at home, but then be someone else at school. Another brother was tortured and vomited blood for 90 days, but he kept his integrity and prayed that the other brothers being held would
    not surrender, but stay loyal.

    One sister battled cancer for 17 years but never quit going to meetings.

    I continue to be amazed that these goobers just don't get it, with accounts like this.

    This kind of thing is horribly demoralizing to the hundreds of thousands of JWs suffering from various illnesses, physical, mental, and emotional.

    The unstated but very plain implication is, "If Brother X vomited blood for 90 days, what's your excuse for not showing up? Do you vomit blood? Have you had cancer for 17 years? No? Well, why the $#%F aren't you at every meeting then? Hmm? What's your problem, sister? You must lack appreciation for spiritual things!"

    Um....I'm calling bullshit on this one. Vomiting blood for 90 days? My first question is: When he first started vomiting blood, why didn't someone take him to the hospital? My second thought is: Wouldn't he be dead long before he hit 90 days of vomiting blood?

    Another couple used to be loved by their family and friends when they were in the world, but once they learned the truth - they were shunned.

    Gee.....good thing Jehovah's Witnesses don't shun their family and friends once they learn the truth about 'the Truth' eh? Smileys

    What a pathetic email.......but not really surprising. I wonder how many hours the Dub who typed it up, counted on his Field Circus Report.

    If you tried to hold it indefinitely, you would eventually suffer long-term internal damage.

    Yup. But if you were to do so in the New System of the Paradise Earth, you could do so indefinitely without even noticing it.

    Because it's not about how heavy the cup is, it's about how long you hold it.

    Yeah, well I finally put the WT's cup down - I had been holding it for damn near 43 years...didn't realize how heavy it was until the last...

    I recently got sent an 'inspirational email' about an article written by WT's favourite son, J. Eng*ardio re: Michael Jackson - "Heaven Can Wait" - (google it for some real entertainment!) Can't believe the sh*t that gets sent around by witlesses that is supposed to be 'encouraging'.
