  I did email my father the official findings report last week from the Australian Royal Commission , and said calmly to him "oh I thought you might like to be aware of these official governmental findings so that when the Elders school addresses the need for reform in dealing with such cases, you would have the details close to hand..."

  He didn't bite....

  Yes ADD, I am also surprised that it is 1 week long!

  Hopefullly none of the window cleaning elders would lose income during that time. Ah, but of course, the Society would help them out with expenses after all...right? 😳

  i went to the atm to get out my housekeeping and budgeting money.

  ($650) this covers large bills and everyday shopping for food etc.. made the withdrawal and as i fumbled my wallet the atm took the money back.

  a bank staff member was present helping another customer with the other atm and saw this.

  My friend the 'Super-Dub.'

  by joey jojo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i speak semi-regularly to an old friend of mine who i would describe as a super-dub.. he knows i am inactive but over the years i have peppered him with a lot of questions about the org.

  that i hoped would make him at least pause and think somewhat rationally about the reality of being a jw in this brave new- post gb 2.0 world.. we have discussed everything from the generation changes, to the u.n. , failed prophecy, flip flops, the reduction in size of the wt magazine, the closing/ consolidation of bethels including lay-offs, jw broadcasting, cart witnessing- etc, etc.. what do i mean by super-dub?

  he is a born-in, has missionary parents, he reg.

  Yes, their motto is:

  "why allow FACTS to get in the way of one's beliefs?"

  Anyone?

  I would love to see the details of this school...

  I mean, what can they seriously talk about for 5 days straight?

  Apparently the "pre-study" he had to do took him DAYS!

  Just Bumped Into My JW Sister And Brother In Town

  by pale.emperor in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so im walking through town today on my lunchbreak and spot the unmistakable walk of my younger brother.

  this is the one who left watchtower... well it turns out he's returned to the vomit after stupidly turning up to the 2017 convention and a few elders filling his head with seeing our dead dad in paradise and to "wait on jehovah".. a few meters behind him was my sister.

  she spotted me first, then hurried up her step to my brother.

  Oh PE, How DARE you make them feel awkward or bad. It is all your fault you know!

  YOU dared to even breathe the same air as them! How evil are you?

  You should have run away screaming and crying with grief when you saw them...just to show how upright their attitudes are, and how wrong you are now that you "left Jehovah"

  Shame on you.

  Does anyone (hello wifi bandit?!😉) have the program, talk outlines or content?

  I would love to be familiar enough with it so I can open a discussion with him...

  Why "fancy dress" and "theme weddings" were BANNED by our Congregation!

  by Witness 007 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  our kingdom hall was in a boring town of 30,000 people so to spice things up me and some special pioneers living with us decided to have a fancy dress up party!

  what could go wrong?

  nice clean fun, and no booze (oh crap!).

  Fancy Dress was banned in all forms, as I was told by an elder once "we do not believe in Fairy Tales or stories about Superhuman beings!"

  Hmmm...
