Ah my favorite topics :) The sanctimonious self righeous telling of other people how to live their lives!
I pray everyday that Thor prevent me from being an exjw.....
this is a damn serious question.
you must know by now that jerusalem was not destroyed in 607 bce and that 607 was initially picked by ct russell by using his "pyramid scheme" measurements.
there is no hiding these facts yet you continue to preach this nonsense.

a special message to her daughter, ann marie if you are watching this site.

i 'm sorry all of this is not in order.
i'm writing as all this comes back to me.. .
my first room assignment was room 33 in the 129 building.
ok i don't mean to put all of them into just one box so to speak, their are some that are smart successful etc.
but my god most of them are just wasted space, ignorant, no drive, horrible jobs, make nothing for income and the only thing in life they have going for them is this title.
no wonder so many will not wake up and hold on to this stupid cult, it's all they have.

Former elder here, have to disagree with the premise of the OP. Its easy to take shots at the supposed authority figures of the cult but in the end they are just guys. Some are jerks some are good guys, they are just people. I was never a loser or in any what you described. I made 6 figures this year, have always been a driven and dedicated guy, fairly intelligent (certainly not a dummy) and at the very least my kids and dog would disagree that i was ever a waste of space. On a good day a few others may stick up for me as well...
My only point being, painting all of any one group with a broad brush is a bad idea, be it all of a race, all of a gender or even all of a religion.
for those that lurk or havnt decided to post yet.... living a lie is difficult.
nobody would likely disagree with that... many of us lived or are living the wt lie for the sake of friends or family.
it can eat at us and put us in situations where we frame half truths, try to find tactful way to avoid telling people what we really think.. there is great freedom in being able to admit truths.
someone at bethel dinning room was hogging all the bread rolls!!!
would a brother on the writting dep.
dare vent his frustration thru the spiritual food our watchtower???
Two things:
1) the article didnt say "fat" people but rather gluttons. It was highlighting the attitude not the the weight or relative body mass.
2) you dont have to go back to 1974. The current elders book says the exact same thing. Its still, in 2015, a df'ing offense.
see www.avoidjw.org/2015/12/jehovahs-witnesses-rules explaining that jw's have to apply to 230 rules.
Thats incorrect. Paul, stealing from greek mythology, said the disobdient angles were thrown into tartarus, or imprisioned.
Any google referances to "larger skulls" (as in nephelium) are clearly hoaxes. Its ok, former brother. Its a long march to truth :)
i just watched this clip on youtube....i can't begin to say how it made me feel.
, i'm not sure who i am more annoyed about.
the bloke doing the commentry, the punk shouting at a serious and should be respectful religious event, or some of the youtube comments that follow.. and i find this so disrespectful.
