  Trying to find an opportunity to discuss the TTATT with my Father.

  just recently i've been thinking about trying to talk about ttatt to my father.

  i'm just trying to find an opportunity.

  i know he will never leave it - or i would be surprised if he did.

  Im not too keen on trying to wake my mom up, i need all the help with her that will hopefully come her way,lol
  

  shes so unreasonable and cannot make heads or tails of anything said, that i have not let her drag me into what basically turns to me defending my right to use my brain, and nothing more. it just goes around in circles.

  now if you and your father have an awesom close relationship and you have known him t oopenly question things in the past, and hes a man who has read things outside the org, like ANY real news magazines or documentaries. you might be able to slip in a comment every now and then

  but ask yourself this, as I did.

  what is your desired result? will it improve his situation or yours, or the families? or is it simply for the purpose of him knowing what you now know? is he financially secure, and can survive in the old way till he passes? if so you might not really benefit.
  

  my mom knowing what I know would not change her one bit, shes still opinionated, think shes right about everything, does what she wants how she wants, and can live in a world with no other books accept the ones the watchtower wrote and thinks it equals a college education! lol. and she would suddenly not have anything to look forward to Sunday morning and Thursday night. she would loose what little social life she has now,[my sister already suffers from 'too much mom'] and shes in her early 70's her health is starting to suffer, and within ten years, she will be needing help, and me, I plan to be too busy making up the last freaking 40 years of my lost life to be driving her to the kin dum hall .

  Why Is This New Batch of Governing Body Members So Stupid?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  well there are lots of reason for sure, denial, delusion, wishful thinking, ego maniac, infantile understanding of ancient writings, satanophobia, xenophobia, out of touch with reality, limited choices scrapping the bottom of the barrel,and many more.. listen to this ted talk and see if you can pick out something that helps explain why these guys are such ass holes:.

  organizations are often run according to the superchicken model, where the value is placed on star employees who outperform others.

  and yet, this isnt what drives the most high-achieving teams.

  nice ted talk, im going to post that one my Facebook page and see if any one actually watches it. lol

  as it applies to all of humanity as a whole.
  

  I always wondered, were those in attendance at the convention where these guys gave these blubbering opinions, allowed to bring newly interested one? or stream the talk onto someones private tv or computer?
  

  can you imagine what these people thought upon hearing all that?

  a sure way to alienate everyone id say

  WT Society Makes Light of Child Abuse Crimes by Portraying them as Cartoons

  by flipper in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i commented on this on another thread- but i believe this has enough importance to create a thread about this situation in and of itself.

  at the current district convention as you know the wt society released a " sophie & caleb " video allegedly warning parents about the dangers of child abuse.

  they don't really use the words " child abuse " in the video - but just say if " someone tries to touch you in a manner you aren't comfortable with " and portray it as a cartoon !

  [Flipper, use real humans as real actors portraying real situations? Are you serious? I can just see it:]

  had the same idea that i had only i think it should be a live drama at a convention,lol after all arent the dramas supposed to be warning examples? lol how to identify satans tools? [no pun intended]
  

  I can see it now, in front of a live audience, a full grown adult man with a little girl or boy on his lap in pajamas reading a book, slowly stroking the little tot's back and leg, until relaxed, and then.. his hand into the no no zone,
  

  how would that go over??? grandma would pass out, lol

  so, if its true, someone needs to get hold of one, any sort of flag, and burn it in the trash heap, or toss it in the garbage, or use it to wrap muddy shoes, lol, while there are a few jw onlookers, and see the reaction.

  if they get upset, its idol worship indeed.

  wow, If it wasn't for the fact that I would start laughing and have to leave, Id go listen to that talk just to hear it myself. i haven't heard a peep from my mom, so maybe it isnt something popular here on the east coast pa new york area?

  to place people in this constant state of anxiety, is what places them on anti depressants,lol

  good heavens, did not it say in scripture something like stop worrying about tomorrow there are enough anxieties for today? gee I wonder what sort of article they would print up on that ONE scripture.
