debating this was going to be the last day in field service was not hard after dealing with a nasty mess because i was grouped with the misfits of the kingdom hall!
i was reading this website on my phone while something started to stink in my car and one of the weird kids nobody wanted to work with yelled "hey, you leaking all over my seat, he was freaked out too!
" the older, retired elder, his pioneer daughter had forgotten to put his depends on and that became my problem.
no one over the age of 70 should go out i service. [god, how embarrassing these poor elderly women with their hideous legs in knee high stockings... struggling to get out of the car. only to stumble with a presentation at the one door they got to go to in the whole morning]
did not the levites retire at 70? since jws think they are part of an [imitation] nation of Israel , then they should retire from the 'temple' at age 70 and go home and play with their cats
i was on the jw.org website today and decided to watch a video entitled 'respect jehovah's authority'.
to my surprise approximately 3mins 25secs into the video, as the opening title began to fade, a symbol of the all seeing eye (eye of horus) appeared on the screen.
the scene was not set in egypt, but in a hebrew tent in the wilderness where praise was being sung to jehovah!!
ive seen the images in older books, i have these books, and its too obvious. some people have enhanced photos on line at websites, of what they claim are hidden images, and even myself feel some are a stretch of the imagination but there are some pretty obvious ones.
i have not watched the video yet, but some images/pictures/symbols cannot be seen by everyone, as in the case of magic eye art, some can see these some cant. so lets not discount anything at this point, lol
so, i've got the assembly tomorrow, or so the wife says.
i should have bought this in preparation..... .

my mom would make sure she was able to 'survive' taking us kids to the assembly with a wide variety of 'quiet' snacks, gummy bears, jelly beans, mints, gum, cheerios, placed in quiet containers, tucked in quiet book bags or her giant quiet purse. then we have the assortment of books, tablets, coloring pencils, blanket ,pillow, THEN, to make sure we behaved, she carried a quiet wooden spoon in her purse, which my brother was smacked with in the ladies rest room, quite a bit.
after all, those snacks and coloring pencils always assist a child in siting still.... lol
calling you bible scholars!.
i was asked this:.
how can this apply to jesus when he was not in the grave for 3 nights?.
i havent gone to meetings in about 1 year and a half.
one of my neighbors who is a jw-lady told me that the co on the last visit said that its very likely that right after armageddon (which is just around the corner) the present governing body members will be in charge of the united states since they are familiar with the culture.
and that the apostles and early christians will be in charge of areas like china.
how old is this person? maybe they have dementia. that's abut the silliest thing I have heard in a long time. completely impossible. [oh yea thats right nothing is impossible with jehov. accept making sure his 'org' has enough money.]
[plus Armageddon is not an event its a place].
here in matthew chapter 19 jesus tells a man the commandments he has to do to gain life... which apparently did not include partaking of his flesh and blood.
so this means that this man could have everlasting life and not partake of the emblems.
they knew not of them.
'shall be perfect' sounds past tense . as in when you go to heaven. its impossible for human to be perfect, we cant do the impossible. which is why we were supposed to be forgiven always. ancient Hebrew is so difficult to translate when already mistranslated. although he was only speaking to few disciples, not the crowd of people as he went away from them. and again, only for those under the law. he says in matthew he did not come to end the law but to fulfill it. not one letter was to be changed.

i know it's old but i never saw this one before.

omg [ not only at minuet 4] but here in the video around minuet 9, he starts with the whole finances thing.. statements like.
the masters resources .
spending jehovahs money .
apparently Jehovah hasn't blessed them enough, that they are begging for more funds, why the proclaimed shortfall?
is the faithful slave squandering 'Jehovahs' money so they are running out? how are they wise if they need more?
surely operating a costly tv channel couldn't possibly have been a necessity,
surely expecting all congregations t o buy large screen tvs so people can sit in a room and hear the same crap that has been coming off the platform for decades, was a wise use of money.
are they soon to become a sort of prodigal son? take the inheritance go out and blow it on real estate investments that may fail, and then come crawling back to 'Christendom'
i was just pondering the other day, is it more likely that a man will leave a religion, or a woman?
is there a way to know if the men on the site outnumber the women or vice versa as to who found out ttat first and left.. im going to suggest men.
basically because men in general, do not like to be told what to do.

the first ever billboard has been crowd funded on reddit and will be going up.
i'm curious to know if it will cause a spark in any jw's who already have questions or doubts and lead them to research into the child abuse cases and lead them to the thought that the wt and gb are not inspired or gods mouthpiece.
at the very least it will provide people a topic of conversation and questions to the jw's who knock on their door: "so whats this whole sex abuse in kingdom halls thing about i saw on the billboard down the road?
maybe it should say 'congregation', instead of khall.
and have more than one website for other cult like denominations as well. the blue is a dead giveaway tho lol
