  Interesting piece about Stephen Lett and family: property developers

  by Diogenesister in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  another very well researched programme by the blue envelope exploring stephen lett's bio and his family interest in property.

  interestingly his parents were pioneering until the new service year 1975 , when they immediately changed tack and began investing in properties along the gulf coast.

  once again, highly recommended veiwing.. https://youtu.be/9qh0jbvsdrc.

  Will you attend the Memorial 2020 ? - Covid-19 (Coronavirus)

  by bats in the belfry in

  2. beliefs

  ... or rather listen to the advice on their jw news website:.

  show love to others.

  while we all know the importance of attending christian meetings and participating in the public ministry, if you are sick, it is best to stay home to avoid infecting others.

  What Makes. Person A Pedophile?

  by minimus in

  it seems the news always has another report of a pedo stalking children or hurting them.

  i know this has gone on forever but i read another report of an illegal alien with a history of abuse taking advantage of another poor child.. i just don’t understand why some people do this.

  is there an actual brain abnormality?

  the danger with capital punishment for rapists and paedos is they would be more likely to kill the victim to reduce the chance of being identified.

  if one man on his own can use technology to track down and expose these lumps of vomit who think they are human beings, then why can't western governments' security services do the same?.

  i no longer have my landline plugged in. all i ever got on it were fake calls from a phoney Talk Talk caller in India, --telling me my internet was going to be cut off in the next 24 hours. unfortunately i need the landline for the internet, or i would cancel it. i know Talk Talk never call their customers, which i am.

  i wonder if these "Talk Talk" phone callers even know they are part of a scam?

  Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.

  latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.

  the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

  why should the watchtower cult be concerned?

  we are living sooo close to the end and a few dubs that could catch it--and die--will get resurrected anyway.

  Name one POSITIVE thing you took from your experience as a Witness

  by geodude in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was thinking about this at work the other day, and realized the one positive thing i can truly credit the jws with: .

  i have no fear of public speaking.

  i was a shy kid, fat, clumsy, with crooked glasses and worse teeth, who wore hand-me-downs in one of the wealthiest counties in all of america, who sat still while classmates got up to salute the flag or recite the pledge of allegiance.

  not a born in--but the watchtower cult was all i had known since a pre-teen. i was baptised at 14, pioneer at 16, servant at 18. it was all i knew. married to a born in at 20 ( for sex ). wife became pregnant when i was 23..and i was already having a lot of doubts. the blood policy really got to me as a father to be. i never had any real interest in the religion..it was all a sham to please others.

  so i quit.

  when i cleared my late jw dad's house out, i dumped all the books, 50 years worth of magazines--all filed in empty corn flakes boxes, congregation records..the whole damn lot went to the tip. i should have taken it all to the hall and burned the lot in the car park.
