JW sisters reaction to the cutbacks

by umbertoecho in

i had gone away for a rest and came back to pick my animals up.

(yes we share one common thing.

the love of animals).

I think WT operations will become such, that eventually everything can be controlled remotely from the US or maybe some secret undisclosed location. We all know how paranoid they are, couple that with the fact that now they actually have reason to believe people/victims/lawyers are in fact out to get them and I can see them making strategic withdrawals all over the globe.

An elder bought my son a suit

by Clambake in

i guess being two months old and coming to the kh in his onesee was kind of offensive .

how rude of me.

i am thinking about returning to him.

Hey clambake, you can buy pacifiers with moustaches on them, would look great with the suit 😉

Tell the guy he only wears his moustache pacifier with his new suit, and he'll counsel you to stop dressing the baby in the suit.

You gotta fight fire with fire with these people. Beat them at their own game.

Which bible character do you hate the most?

by Bonsai in

the more i think about it, the more i feel an extreme dislike for the apostle paul.

he was on par with hitler in his treatment of the jews before he "saw the light".

he replaced jesus teachings of love and mercy with a more legalistic, pharisaical concept of devotion to god.. any evil person can come to believe in god and worship him if the scales were literally and miraculously removed from his eyes.

Ahh.... the bible, so many jerks, so little time.

I think I was off the day they taught ...

by Simon in

does anyone else have those things that everyone else seems to know ... except you?

it's like you were off the day it was taught in school and you don't know that you don't know about it.

but everyone else does.. i have a couple .... first, days of the month.

The whole time I was "in the jw compound" was like I was "sick that decade" re world events and current affairs (which interest me a lot BTW.)

I have a theory that whilst being a dub we severely underutilize our brains memory and learning capacity. It makes me think of an electronic device that is always charged when the battery power is at a certain point and after a while the device will stop working at that point even when there is still power left on the battery. Because it has been trained to stop working at a certain point never allowed to "max out" as it were so it's capacity becomes restricted.

Anyway, probly makes no sense but my excuse is, I get my left and right confused also, maybe it's a female brain thing 😮

Paradise sharks will eat seaweed and lions will eat pineapples...What ?? Dinosaurs ate patatoes!!!

by Witness 007 in

yes my friends if you went to "witness college" you would know dinosaurs before "eden" ate tomatoes.

and in paradise snakes will give tender kisses to your ankles!!

what would david attenborough animal expert think of this nonsense.

LoveUni - "...hard-boiled or soft-boiled?" Probably scrambled, the weather being so bad and all.

Actually the guy in the vid (wish I could remember his name) reckoned it was to hatch them when the ark landed.

Sort of like a Jurassic Arc situation. LOL!!!

ATT: WARNING

by EJ257 in

please be aware of everything that is happening around the world at this moment in time.

this goes to anyone, ex-communicated, removed, serving, believer and non.

at this point in my observations i have realized many religions/ideologies know there is some sort "end of time" or a transition into a new order of living in this earth.

EJ257 - you say "...in terms of biblical honesty this religion is completely correct in the context of the bible."

You haven't researched the WT's record of "honesty" then.

There was bro in my hall that went around recommending a video from some christian scientist who claimed that Noah took dinosaur eggs with him on the ark.

You're right, it all makes sense, it's all part of the plan, of course (slaps head) stop preaching and withdraw into your interior rooms until the denunciation passes over.

So that's why the GB are so intent on getting rid of all non-essential bethelites and getting Warwick Mansion completed. It's so they have luxury interior rooms to withdraw into! Duh!
