My JW Elder Brother Passed Away
by minimus inhe was basically a good man, just a believer in the religion.
when we were both elders we were best of friends and then things deteriorated when i was not an elder for a while.
then after becoming an elder again, i slowly drifted away from the religion and he drifted further away from me.

Zappa

it is going to be a date night, and the person i am taking never had the chance to see his father frank in concert.

"Faithful and Brilliant Servant Class in Brooklyn" ???
Lol always with the bragging.
Interesting claim "Theosophists and others" are taking credit for the "new light X-Rays" as being part of their "deception outfit."

That's a mouthful. Although, "JW" is ambiguous for the uninitiated.
Borgcasting sounds cooler though.

I agree DD the only way forward for JWland is to become something other than what it is now.

True Sir true.
But, being morons hasn't stopped them from becoming billionaires, either. People who have made money then need to keep it. Unless of course they have so much money they can afford to be idiots.

I don't think the borg gives a crap about older women full stop.
But I also think the borg is trying to future proof itself by catering to a younger demographic, I mean, they would be fools not to.

Jehovah's Witnesses in Russia Interrogated by Masked Police
by pale.emperor inhttp://www.newsweek.com/jehovahs-witnesses-russia-ban-police-903021?utm_source=quora.
i guess the gb's idea of writing to the russian government last year didn't help?
now they have their names and addresses in which to raid their homes.. i sometimes wonder if the gb knew this would happen and wanted it to happen to ensure they'd be persecuted thus creating their own fulfillment of prophecy..

Hmmm if they had only followed their own advice "Do not put your trust in men to whom no salvation belongs."
