  Three examples how the borg twist the thinking of their flock. (1) A few months after my parents were badtized my mom was expecting me. She would always tell me the story how shameful she felt being pregnant with me because the end was so close then one day out in field service with another sister they walked by a clothes line full of clean diapers. All this sister could say was "all this world can think of is sex, sex, sex". This sister soon had 4 children. (2) when my wife was first pregnant sisters would come up to her and say "woe to the pregnant women in the last days" (3) Ex circurit overseer would always complain about his wife getting pregnant, so they had to leave the circurit work. The bad thing was he let everyone know as a joke by calling their child circurit breaker. I knew their son as a adult and he was messed up. Very sad. This is how twisted the cult is.

  I Am Still Here! Another Birthday look back at one helluva lifetime

  when the doctor pulled my screaming body out of mom all those 7 decades ago, i landed in a post-wwii world.the world of 1947--compared to today's world--an alien planet.. the world i live in today has nothing in common with the world in which i grew up.. there were no cell phones back then--there were black telephones with a dial-tone and an operator who placed your call.

  everywhere you found telephone booths!

  a call was a nickel.where did all those telephone booths go?i dunno.where did my whole world go?i dunno.. tv sets were huge boxes with tubes and small screens.

  Just saw this thread so Happy Birthday. Born in 1954 and raised in central IL I was 8 years old before we got a dial phone. Before that it was a oak box with a crank on the side hanging on the wall. Turn the crank real fast to get the operator. Then we had a dial phone which was on a party line. Our ring was 2 shorts and 1 long. Most of what you brought out I lived through. I love my 8 track player. Take care. Still Totally ADD

  a comment from a friend's page.

  "why does a heavenly organisation need earthly headquarters buildings?

  surely jesus said that god is a spirit and should be worshipped in spirit and truth?

  Anything that sounded like rock n roll. I was told by a elder that only country music was acceptable. Then another one said only classical music was OK. So I listen to Emerson Lake and Palmer and one of Deep Purple records. They mixed classical and rock n roll together. I guess of could have listen to ELO also with their song Roll over Beethoven. Lol. My dad would tell me only kingdom music was good to listen to. So I listen to all the rock music. Still Totally ADD

  Hidden history of the Watchtower religion

  by TerryWalstrom in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the deeper you dig--the less impressive jw’s become!___________________you may think you know the men who are vitally important to the birth of the religion--but chances are good you’ve been kept in the dark.. _____________.

  did you know?the 1st case heard by the supreme court of the united states concerning the watchtower society involved a director (an officer) of the watchtower, william franklyn hudgings.. a brief description of hudgings and his character.hudgings was an attorney, quack doctor, self-identified ‘scientist’, a pro-zionist, and religious enthusiast who over the years held various director and officer positions in the watchtower society, and the affiliated people's pulpit association and international bible students association.

  at the time of this particular case, william hudgings acknowledged being the corporate secretary of the people's pulpit association and acknowledged that his daily duties included the administrative charge of printing of the watchtower magazine, the bible student's monthly, the kingdom news, and other watchtower publications.. (hudgings was also re-elected to the watchtower society board of directors in january 1919.

  Im with you on this zeb. It's a phone not a typewriter. Get your face off the screen and pay attention to whats around you. When walking it is amazing how those light poles and curbs get in their way. Lol. The thing that really shows how addictive these cell phones are is when a family is out for dinner and they are all sitting there with their faces in their phone instead of talking to each other. It seems both sides of the pond has this crazy problem. Take care and watch out for those cell phone drivers. Still Totally ADD

  This really SUCKS! I feel very sorry for those who are being kick out. It shows how Amoral the borg really is. I seem to remember the wt use to say to young men to make a carreer at bethel. It may have taken me until I was 54 years old to wake up and leave but at least I never took the bait to make bethel a career. I think this is one of the reason they make them sign a letter of poverty. That way no one can come back and sue them for back compensation. I may be wrong but I would never put it pass them.

  If My Dad Were To See The Watchtower Org Now

  by pale.emperor in

  2. experiences

  as we all know, this org has metamorphosized from one ugly creature to another continuously since it's inception.

  but more so it seems in the last 30 years.. i got to thinking what my dad would think if he were to be brought to life for 5 mins to see the way things are now.

  how would he even react?.

  My father died in 2009. I am sure he is rolling in his grave over what the wt. has become. Dead for almost 10 years if he could come back now he would not recongized it. They would most likely df him for believing old teachings and its been only 10 years! Still Totally ADD

  Theramin Trees: Responses to Child Abuse, Jehovah's Witnesses in the dock

  by Diogenesister in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  theramin trees, psychologist and ex jehovah's witness, has done simply the most carefully constructed, rigorous and utterly damning reveiw of the role of watchtower in case 29 the australian royal commission into institutional responses to instances of child sexual abuse.. although the ex jws community have gone over the carc ad nauseaum, anyone who is familiar with the work of theramin trees or his brother ;qualia soup, will surely be aware that the quality of their work ensures this will likely be the definative video on the subject.. cannot recommend highly enough, people!.
