The old "spiritual competition"! These people are so insecure. Once they run off all the thinkers/common sense people these types of people (the competitors) with devour one another. Have you ever seen 2 Alpha Dogs in a cage together?

17Jehovah's Witness pi$$ing contest
by hoser inok more about the jw wedding i attended.
there were these two couples at our dinner table that were having an all out pissing competition as to who was the most spiritual.
they were comparing who was in "the truth" the longest, who pioneered where and for how long.

"I'm so glad that I've brazenly defied this advice and always treated my wife as (gasp!) an equal. Sure makes things go easier when you treat your wife like a person."
We agree 100% OneEyedJoe! This is why we have survived for 32+ years together. We both respect and take the other into consideration when we decide things.
I have seen so many wives in the org who have a WTF look on their face. Then you see how the husband treats her. Some of the wives treat their husbands poorly too. The road goes both ways.

Elders Starting To Poke Around... Advice?
by Garrett inas many of you know, i've been out of the organization for about a month now.

Garrett,
We were ignored before we left then some elders and family started poking around.
Ignore them. Don't answer the door or return their calls. If you happen upon one of them tell them you are doing fine and if you need them you know where to find them. Use the sick, depressed or busy work schedule excuses. NEVER tell them how you really feel. They WILL hang you. They can't hang you if you give them nothing to hang you with. This is how we have played it. Don't worry they will forget about you soon enough. Play the game your way and don't allow them to bully or abuse you. You ARE in control.
You are in a fortunate situation, you have no family in.

I used to drink after the meetings (alot). I know how you feel Cappytan. Once I left I now enjoy an occasional glass of wine. I REALLY enjoy that glass. I no longer need a straw in my bottle of wine. It's a wonderful feeling.
It goes to show the the effects of this cult. I know lots of alcoholics that are still in.

Prank call to Governing Body member Anthony Morris III gets through
by Watchtower-Free inalert..............alert.....breaking news .......... john cedars of jwsurvey has pranked called governing body member anthony morris iii at bethel .

I think it was funny. Someone at Bethel will be hung out to dry for letting that call get through.
I am glad Cedars got to say his last statement to Morris about him being deluded. Any other issue Ceders would have raised, i.e. disfellowshiping, blood, UN affiliation would have been handled the exact same way...a hang up. This is how these guys, roll...run, run, run. They can't answer so they run!
Brother Morris stood in front of over 1 million people (some very good people who would give their last dime or meal to these guys) and insulted everyone.
Let's go beyond the tight pants thing . We have several family members who are going through some tough times (all JW's). Having to struggle financially in their golden years with hard labor due to pioneering back in the day. They are struggling with aging and health problems and Morris makes the statement that some feel Jehovah understands my situation but then goes on the say "that's not the Jehovah I know." Really? How do you think that statement made the ones sitting there feel, that have health/age issues, that have given their all in their youth?
Shame on them for what they have done to some wonderful people that I know. The GB knew he was giving that talk (he had given the talk in Italy before the US) and they were all behind it.
I am pissed and I'm glad someone got to call that so called loving Brother deluded! I wish I could have personally done it myself!
Thanks Cedars!

I just had a thought about the new KH design
by JeffT ini've been trying to figure out the purpose of the new (bland, commercial style) building that the gb is pushing.
it is not a design that attracts attention, nor does it offer a lot in future resale value.
it will be more difficult to build than the wood residential style buildings, meaning they can't use their cheap unskilled labor force for a lot of the work.

The organization does not have to sell the buildings. Remember there are tons of investors that own commercial real estate that make money leasing the commercial space. It's a huge business. If "things" don't work out they can become Landlords. Big money in it.
