Brilliant!
It takes back the control from the Elders / Society.
an elder in quebec, has just quit as a jw.
he did so by emailing nearly a thousand jw’s with the explanation for why he and his family are quitting.. i have spoke to him quite a bit, interesting guy.
he’s quite the loss to wt, he’s an elder with a serious career in chemistry, a professor no less.. catch his story here, apologies if this has already been posted;.
Brilliant!

they will come back to you and deny your request, ask them to ask the service department to get organizational procedures.
if still denied refuse to attend with out your lawyer present.
and then ask them who has fairer judicial practices satan's world or jehovah's earthly organization.. no recordings allowed, and definitely no lawyers!
Yes.
Also remind them that any similar meeting that would be required in a corporate or work place, would ALWAYS have an independent person present to witness the procedings.
so, jehovah's witnesses and many other biblical literalists think that the "whole world" was flooded during noahs day.. they take the "accounts" in genesis literally.
so that means that areas as far away as australia, russia, argentina, greenland, antarctica were all visited by noah and his family to gather animals and preach before it happened right??
they then took everything back to the middle east to board the ark...uh huh.... yet, the same expression in the bible for the "whole world" is also used in the account about the "worldwide famine" in josephs day!
Funny clip Joe! Thanks for sharing

Great comments island man!
i find it funny that our watchtower today was about encouragement, which was absolutly mind numbing during the meeting the way they conduct the watchtower in my hall and beat a dead horse trying to milk points out, (everyone was half asleep and the conductor had to repeat questions to the audience multiple times lol).
but anyways, i’m seeing some post witnesses are making about the convention saying things like, i really need to get my act together and we need to make adjustments.
wow!
Sorry Addison!
ah well, you know what I mean.
after almost a year of thinking and eh feeling, not sure... i decided to throw a small birthday party for my son.
this feels so strange, i have never been to a birthday party.
my husband doesn't feel comfortable with it but he decided to play along lol.
We celebrated our first birthday last year (unstuck and I have a birthday one day apart)
It was more of a celebration of the ability to celebrate if you know what I mean? Kind of a way to regain our own choice to act for ourselves rather than do what the cult told us to do.
We found that it was more about the people we had there!
So I would simply say, enjoy the day for the occasion it is! A family day to celebrate your lives and show gratitude for all you have.
Enjoy! And "Happy Birthday!"
firstly, i want to be crystal clear how grateful i am for jwn.
it's been my place of support for over seventeen years and it's the first online space i direct anyone to if they are taking steps out of the cult.
i am not bashing jwn - i love this place and appreciate the hard work and expense simon puts in to keep it going.
How did this very thread become about the very thing we didnt want it to focus on? Politics.
i found this gem in the watchtower online library that now goes further back than the year 2000 publications.
an extra bit of evidence for those cult members that deny that their governing body gods lied to them.. even a lapel card was printed for all attendees to wear (see my avatar).
kingdom ministry 1970 july in the announcements section.. ◆ a new circuit assembly program is scheduled to begin in september.
Great thread!
Yes, the time left is URGENT! (Except when it is not)

Thanks for the comments.
Oh, dont worry - I literally laugh at the very concept of the biblical flood. I just find it an interesting game to use biblical references to combat JW doctrines....

Ah man...that sounds so painful.
Good luck buddy! Keep your dignity and calmness...
