ok, no one seemed to notice, but the annual general meeting came and went around october 4th i think.. did anyone go, know anyone that went, or know what may have been discussed?.
apparently, there are a limited number of tickets issued.
part of the meeting is a business meeting.
My brother and his wife didn't mention too much about what was said at this annual meeting. Except that "We're in 235 lands and over 300 languages".
One older sister from my congregation who was invited a couple of years ago said it is supposed to be kept quiet, what is said at the annual meetings...that it would be untheocratic to tell others at the KH what had been discussed.

something strange happened to me yesterday on the subway coming home from work.
an awake article, the one about "the internet and pornography, who does it effect" fell right at my feet.
i looked around to see who dropped/threw it down but didn't see anyone.. my first jw-paranoia thought was that i was followed by a jw spy and they dropped it so i could see it.
Thanks shera,
You're right...I wish I could kick out the JW paranoia terror I feel sometimes!!! I don't know if I will ever outgrow it.
Thanks again for your post!

My first JW-paranoia thought was that I was followed by a JW spy and they dropped it so I could see it. It stayed on the floor of the subway the whole ride home. It is an old issue, so I didn't think it could have been placed with someone and then that person may have thrown it down.
It is kind of funny...when my roommate and I first got our computer, I had gone to the post office with my cart to pick it up and on the way home I was approached by a local brother and he went all over me about buying the computer..."You know that's one of Satan's tools". Yea, well why does Bethel have so many of them.
LOL...I'm just the biggest exjw pervert in the neighborhood,

***the mole*** a response from comments to my sister on abuse.
several elders showed up to my house last weekend and i had no clue that strong resentment was brewing.
only several weeks has past now and i find myself in a midst of a storm.
hi (((((((mole))))))),
welcome to the forum, haven't read all of your story but from this thread sounds like they treated you rotten. but take courage, because it is true people like you who are bringing to light the sexual abuse within the organization. And standing up for what you believe and for what is right is far worth more in God's eyes than following along like a mindless soldier.
i can feel and understand your rage!!!

as a lifer in the jw community and having done a fair bit of research about 'our' heritage i completely agree with judge rutherford on only one thing.
religion is a snare and a racket.. .
(jehovahs witnesses say they are the third largest religion in france)
why144000, yea me too...i agree...religion is a snare and a racket.
they like to use that word selectively...good when it suits them (3rd largest religion in France)...and bad as in get out of False Religion/Babylon the Great if you do not wish to share in her fate...
welcome to the forum!!!

i have some unique and troubling news.
i just got off the telephone with scott boer, vicki boer's husband and before that vicki.
her honour, justice anne molloy, has just ruled on the legal cost issue in the boer case.
(((((((Vicki, needs_lots)))))))
while i am typing this the song on the radio is "Lean on Me",by Bill Withers....."I just might have a problem that you'll understand...if there is a load that you can't bear..."
This is the first I've heard of your story...(been watching too much Law and Order reruns lately)!
I can't imagine what you must be feeling, but it makes me sick to read your story and about the ruling.
First, I hope you can appeal the decision. and Second, if you do eventually have to pay the b@st@rds!!! I will help in any way I can. Third, I am in New York, and although I've never been too much of a fighter I will try and do what I can to get this to the media here!
You've got a friend in New York
