about 5 years ago when i was in, my son who at the time was 18 needed somewhere to sleep for a couple of nights due to work commitments ,in a city 2 hours from home.
my "best man" who is an elder that lives in this city , was asked could my son stay a couple of nights .
the response was he doesn't go to meetings anymore ,he can't stay here , i ask can he sleep on garage floor instead , still can't stay .
I challenge anyone to approach a bethel after hours tell them you are an inactive JW who is stranded and could you please provide shelter for the night.
I was a pioneer - stopped in Ontario Bethel to see old friend. Friend asked Ken Little if I could have a room for the night. Little: "What are we running? A hotel?"

Thanks berrygerry. Do you know when this was made?
No, it showed up on my Youtube list.
Even then, in the video, "WT will never change."
That the molester of Simon molested FOURTY FUCKING OTHER KIDS.
Even back then, they repeatedly used the phrase "Pedophile Paradise."
There is absolutely a pedophile ring in this cult - at very high levels.

so we were talking about noah for our family worship tonight and it ended with a little debate between me and my parents about how the flood was possible.
you know, where did the water come from, how did all the animals fit, etc.
of course it led nowhere and my parents came up with some strange theories like that there was "an expanse of water in the sky" and that's where all the water came from.
Watch this (and part 2) at family worship.
so i met her at my last job that i worked & we started off as friends.
i didn't know her faith at the time & i honestly couldn't have cared less, seeing as i'm agnostic.
after about a year, i began developing emotions for her & sure enough, we ended up dating for a little while.
Can we not just set up a sticky for these posts?
It's getting rather repetitive.
Dear Dude:
Look at the multitude of other posts: I am in love with a JW girl. What should I do?

Splane has been Fred Franz 2.0 for a long time.
His sidekick, Sanderson, will be 3.0
