i personally have a very distinct sense of style and fashion which many of the fellow jdubs frown upon.
recently, i was told by a few specially self righteous ones that i looked like a prostitute in a pair of white boots!
a pair of 3 inch heeled, just a little taller than the ankle boots, with skirt that came down to my knees and a black long sleeve shirt that came up to my collarbone.
Aged 15 I wore a black pencil skirt that came well below my knees and had a 1 inch slit in the back, the PO bellowed at me "purrpurr! Your skirt has a dirty great tear all the way up the back!" A$r3h@/€!
I remember one friend of mine aged 16 telling me off for wearing ribbed tops that went all the way up to my collarbone she said it was "too booby"...
and yet today's watchtower and indeed the bible condemns the israelites for moaning about having no water!
it's never occurred to me how unjust this is!
and how could a so called loving god not provide a basic human need?!.

Oh and this stupid thing of Moses's word choice of "we" rather than say "god" seriously! ? One word slip in the heat of the moment was enough to ban him from the promised land? After he had done so much and been through so much for his god and his god d isowns him after one slip up!
i have just watched the glass smashing on the wt video on education.. please consider these experiences from the opposite side of that "coin".. i have heard young ones say out-loud on the mike in the kh that "jehovah is my special friend.."these ones who were at the top of the wt 'tree' pioneering, putting in the hours etc but, it followed that soon saying that pivotal statement they dropped their pioneering, faded, picked up the girl/boyfriend and suffered being dfd.. so where did their wt "education" leave them?
it left them as young adults naive to the world, unskilled, with no qualification to offer any employer and having to replace their former family/associates/friends with new ones.. ( dont get me going on shunning) in some cases with little success as we have read here where they moon about for months or longer unable to emotionally heal after the leaving or df'ing and also others with such a turn around they would never have believed it possible... there was a wt that related how a brother (!
) followed an interest in history and left the truth.
What is this glass smash video? Can someone tell me the gist? So i dont have to watch it or go to the borgs website
do you remember those families where all the sons and daughters had weird biblical names?.
i recall a " machlon" , "eunice" , even a "jehosafath".
can you believe it..
All kids in my cong are biblical names except one lil girl who has a modern non biblical name... It caused alot of comment in the cong and the parents found themselves having to justify it!
had a warning talk on chat rooms last night.
not sure if they are really that big of a deal with jws.
i have a been to a few and have talked with a few sisters actually.
Jw Tom, why are you messaging people asking them if they watch porn?
1 timothy 2:11-15let a woman learn in silence with full submissiveness.
i do not permit a woman to teach, or to exercise authority over a man, but to be in silence.
for adam was formed first, then eve.
As the baby boomer generation dies out and the lack of men in the congregation gets worse I predict that the gb will STILL not allow women to teach, I bet they would rather centralize the meetings beaming them direct from the gb themselves than use women.
The suppression of women in the Borg has always made me furious, especially since it seems to be getting worse with the whole head scarf thing, and the whole no trousers thing. Do they not realise that it makes the women look odd and out of place?
Ewwwww! Sick! Sick! Sick!
They are so numb to their perverted peadofile ways that they make jokes about it now?
another fantastic increase i mean stagnation for the jborg chariot .... cardiff, wales, uk convention july 27-29th 2018. attendances 3500/3600 (friday) - 4150 (sunday) approx.. baptisms - wait for it ... drumroll ... 10..
The jws used to be able to boast "we don't baptize children like the churches do" well they can't say that anymore!
there are many here who think they can infiltrate my web-site.
be warned that we administrators of jwtalk call the listed congregation on your application for membership in our site to verify if they know you!.
some of you have slipped through the cracks and got into our site, but rest assured, we will find you out and ban you!.
Sounds to me like someone is feeling threatened. ...? Teehee! And I agree there's no way that the OP calls up the individuals congregation, for if he did then the elders would a) not give out any info cos they would hear the words "internet forum " and immediately assume that it was an apostate one and b) they would come down like a ton of bricks on the individual jw themselves either putting them off the OP's website OR the elders would behave in such a way that the scales would fall from the jws eyes and they would see the Borg for what they really are, in which case that jw would probably end up here instead!
Either way, calling up congregations is a sure fire way to stop new members from signing up to the OP's website!
again from the shepard the flock book, this is about dealing with child abuse, it gives the elders points to think about and discuss when deciding on child abuse cases.... "(5) what is the.
body believe that he can be trusted with children?
the following questions should be answered with re-.
Yes, the whole of these questions seem primed for enabling the elders to side with the abuser and blame the victim, "oh you were abused little one? Well if your father hadn't let his ministry hours fall maybe you wouldn't have been!"
