after all that we had drummed into us about not the cross, and particularly about not venerating the symbol itself, i have been wondering about this issue.. so, what are your views about wearing a cross around your neck ?
is it just a fashion accessory, or does it mean something to you ?.
inquiring minds would like to know
To answer the subject question: Not for a million dollars!!!
Not only is it meaningless, but it is also one UGLY piece of ornament!

we saw it with raymond franz.
but do you think we could ever see one of the current gb members or future ones, make the same choice?.
to leave, and expose it..
Those men do not have integrity. No way will they give up their lavish lifestyle, adulation and worship.

Excellent!!!
Too bad is an election year. I wish the mainstream media brought this out to the forefront more. It would be nice to bring the fire to their main HQ here.
I know of this Spanish brother that got convicted and is still a JW in good standing. Then there is this sister whose husband molested the grandchildren, and she/they, the parents too, covered it up and just relocated. The guy still a JW in good standing. Disgusting!!!

Do not choose higher education. The New System is near enough that you will not get old or get any use for a profession. (Awake 1969?)

mum phoned last night to see how we all are.
after fifteen years away from meetings and my old jw life you'd think my fade could be called 'successful' and for the most part it is.
.. my resentment at being lied to and having wasted over thirty years of my life has left me like a glass of water full to the brim, it only takes a tap to make a mess.
You can check out anytime you want, but you could never leave the WTBTS.
An argument and sleepless night over a dog, and semantics, though?! There have to be better battles than this pettiness.

good morning from the east coast.
i have a question.
a friend of mine texted me and one of the things she said was that they were getting a lot of great responses with the campaign because they are showing the video.
Video showing is now part of what we HAVE to report monthly.
One more thing to be judged on. One more to be a liar about. 😕

at luke 21:8 jesus is recorded as telling his disciples:.
"look out that you are not deceived; for many will come on the basis of my name, saying, 'i am he', and, 'the due time has approached.
at revelation 1:1-3 we read:.
Revelation was written under a drug-induced trip.
John got hungry then ate some wild mushrooms and had the craziest visions and hallucinations ever!!!😜

the memorial is on march 23 this year.
but all the official jewish calendars has nissan 14 as april 22!
april 22 is the start of passover!
Who cares really?!
Such a silly, worthless, time wasting, meaningless and repetitive ritual each year. Sick and tired of it already. A holy hiccup in the middle of my week. Is he not a glorious king in heaven now? Why is he not solving our issues down here already? It is all man made up bs.
What is more important is where are we going to eat and hang out afterwards?
Amen and pass the biscuits.😜

just got this from my son: .
http://nypost.com/2016/02/23/jehovahs-witnesses-selling-watchtower-building-for-220m/.
somehow i really thought they would be talking about much more money.
They sure are making a killing with the sales of all that property, plus building a more state-of-the-art compound upstate NY and some other places around the world.
Actually, its good they're getting all this money. Takes the guilt away completely about not donating anymore.
