Jw kids setting off fire alarms in hotels
by purrpurr ina friend of mine is staying at a hotel next to one of the big convention sites this weekend.
yesterday she tells me one of the hotels had to be evacuated and the fire brigade called when the fire alarm went off.. it turned out to be a bunch of jw kids having a prank.
she had been speaking to the hotel manager who told her that this happens every year and only when the jw's come to stay!.

Getting rid of disfellowshipping?
by BashfulAshG inif they did that, it would be the end of the jws because they won't have members.
when will be the end of this religion?

If they ended disfellowshipping. I believe it would help with many of their current issues. Instead of the elders. Let the courts / police handle abuse and other legal issues. All other sins or wrong doings will be forgiven by the org and Jah...if the wrong doer gives a generous donation to the worldwide work! All is forgiven.
Why they will never get rid of it? Makes too much sense! Also it follows the bible guide lines to forgive one another instead of judging them! Never going to happen! Not with this GB in charge.

"5.) Jehovah gave the woman the "boldness" (Brazen conduct!!) to tell the snake in the straw-hut out-house to "get behind her", so she could proceed to take an almighty dump? Well that settles it, Jehovah truly looks after his people"
Thanks WingCommander, I needed the laugh today. I laughed for 5 minutes on that one. Loved your post!

'Parents' magazine cover with JW.org cartoon kids
by undercover inmaking the rounds on facebook among jws is a photo of a 'parents' magazine cover that shows the cgi jw.org kids on the cover, and an article headline about how wonderful the teaching tools on jw.org are.
(i don't have the time or the desire to hunt the photo and post it - sorry).
i immediately suspected some bored and naive jw doing some photoshopping.

I wonder if all the CO's and their wives (COW) are bitching because the R & F are emotionally checking out. They forget that respect is earned, not given.
I wish the Org would make a video showing home many ordinary members work their fingers to the bone so they can donate their time and money to pay the CO's, Bethelites and GB members expenses.
These fairy tale videos are sickening. 99.9% of the CO's we have met are high and mighty asses and feel they are entitled to be wined and dined. They come into the Congregation with their Special menu requests and their bill for all the weeks expenses. Feed them hot dogs and beans and see what happens. Anyone feeding you and your family? Not mine. We work for EVERY dime! Let's make a video about that! Reality!

It is sad to see all the damage that has been done to others. Watching this just confirms even more the decision to leave. I think of those all the time that have suffered the abuse. I hope they all get the help and love they need. No one deserves that love more than these ones.
