hi friends .
i don't believe in jw doctrines anymore but because of family i have to be a jw for now.. i am not regular to meetings, and don't answer in meeting, but i report some hours so i remain as active jw now.. .
congregation knows that i am not spiritual and i don't talk to people and i don't care what they think about me.. now, i believe it's important to observe lord's supper as a christian as per john 6:53, so in the coming memorial if i attend i want to partake in the communion,.. i believe it is a sin to pass the bread and wine inspite of knowing it's flesh and blood of jesus.. it's like rejecting jesus.. so i want to partake.. but i dont consider i am anointed etc.
If you're really up for a gag, you should eat the entire plate of bread and drink the entire glass of wine...that would get everyone in a tizzy and probably get you kicked out promptly :)
Darn, so that means you could probably only eat all of the bread before they catch on and the elders circle you like piranhas :-(
Or, just bring your own wine =D And pull it out after eating the plate of bread!
well here am i, a couple of years passed since my original post (link here), somewhat less mysoginistic, more open to relationships, heartbroken again.
this is an official "fuck my life" thread.. being chased by the elders makes one arrive at the conclusion that there is nothing better than not being chased by the elders.
i had a pre-jc meeting a week ago.
Seems like she took it as a normal no strings hookup to me. I don't see what the probo is...you got some likely needed p-tang, and she got a night off from her loser fiancé...win for everyone the way I see it. Sometimes at the end of the night it's just sex and wanting to be close to someone for 8 hrs...nothing more. Also, bars scenes are usually breeding grounds for hookups...kind of common sense.
BTW - I do believe it is poor taste to bring up that you make 6x the normal salary. Kind of makes you come off as a bit arrogant and dirt baggish, even if you didn't mean it.
the usa, claiming that the usa supports freedom, has often supported revolutionaries/dissenters in other countries.. some examples:.
currently, the syrian war commenced circa 2011 in the so-called arab spring.
it is claimed that the usa supplied weapons to anti-government forces.
illegal immigrants
Heh hmmm. I don't know what else to say really. I have know f'n problem with legal migrants that work their way to the USA and got through all of the paperwork. I believe they should come, the more the marrier. but ILLEGALLY?????????????????????????????? NO.
My wife is from Mexico. Her dad came here LEGALLY when she was like 2. She is against ILLEGAL immigrants. That should f'n tell you something.
another thread on here made me think of it.. its a personal peeve of mine.. you bow your head in prayer and the brother says thinks like thank you for the lessons we learned today like bla bla bla and for that wonderful point about yadda yadda yadda.
jehovah we know that etc etc etc therefore we must...well you get the gist.and on and on it goes.
absolutely drives me mad..
When I was "in" (physically and mentally), I would show my displeasure by not saying Amen at the end. Kind of silly, but gave me a sense of revolt. :>
This was a regular occurrence at CAs/DAs, when long-winded gas bags would get up and blather for 5-10 minutes. I never understood that crap...worthless, arrogant prayers.
Of course, now I know they were just suck up douche bags to the DO/CO, so the whole thing makes sense...
can we expect legal problems for trump to cripple his authority?
remember that trump u. is still pending as well as multiple accusations of groping.
there is that one case of the woman claiming he raped her at 13. wow america, you really know how to pick'em.
Senate too. Dem's are screwed for at least 2 years, if not 4 :-> It's a great day =D
i am incredibly disturbed.
many of the jws i'm still friends with on facebook are incredibly excited that trump won the american presidential race, posting, "yay!
i'm so happy!
I don't know who ya'll are talking to. Everyone at my job and friends/acquaintances are relieved Trump won and that we don't have to have a lying bitch, corrupt scumbag, and future convict in office. It's rainbows and butterflies for my inner circle today :->
Well, yes...as long as you don't get caught by the BOE. :> Or a snitch.
conventions always just seemed like more of a vacation to me than anything else, especially if you had to travel out of town for it, but definitely were exhausting especially toward the end of each day.
for some reason i didn't mind the special and circuit assemblies too much, probably because they seemed like more of a social event than anything else and only 1-2 days.
the memorial always was kind of boring to me.
Talks and parts - Yes.
Scantily cladded hot young girls - No (When I was the appropriate age)
as we know, every month on the "official broadcasting" presentation, a new "music video" is presented.. can these possibly be any more cringe-worthy??.
the words, music, singing are so, so bad....i mean, so bad!.
surely witnesses are not so stupid that they don't harbor secret feelings of awkwardness when they see these?.
Iown Mylife - I remember that atrocity. Actually, one of a stout elder's wife, M.G., loudly lambasted them as horrible and toneless. It was quite a scandal coming from her, as their family is very respected in the area.
it occurred to me the other day that i don't actually know all that much about the bible.
dont get me wrong, i was a very dedicated and studious jehovah's witness and i studied the bible every day - or so i thought.
i have now realised that during the time i spent in that religion i didn't study the bible - i studied jehovah's witness theology.
It was funny for me really, because I had always thought JW's were scholars when I was "in" LOLFLSOWLSSFLS
Then I woke up and learned the TTATT. After that, i noticed that except for the weekly bible reading and highlights, JWs never actually "studied" the Bible during meetings. It was more about how to witness and JW rules and regulations. That's when I knew for sure the whole thing was a scam and a cult.
I mean, even a "Bible study" isn't actually a study of the bible, just a study of JW beliefs. WTF GD SOB!!!!!!!!!
