Why is Jehovah invisible ?
Is it because he couldn't get any clothes to fit him?
i don’t remember having any invisible friends when i was a really little boy, i don’t know if such a thing actually exists, i’ve only ever seen it in movies?
of course it might have looked to others like i was talking to someone on occasions, but i’m sure it would have just been me talking to myself.
the thing is though, i got introduced to an invisible friend in my pre-teens, and i kept the relationship going well into adulthood.

in my case; 27 years.
7 of which were as a ministerial serpent ... sorry, i mean 'servant' ;).
i was about 9 when ma got religion.
baptised at 14. left school at 15
pioneered on and off till 20
then got married. wife was pregnant when i was 23---got me really thinking.
so--i quit.
been out ever since. i'm 69 now.
this can only be a good sign.. my old congregation in liverpool has had a lot of money in it's bank account for years.
for a long, long time (almost 8 years) they've been looking for land to build a new hall.
the one they're in now is literally falling to bits.

was for sale as a commercial premises---right next door to tesco superstore, macdonalds, and a large car sales business. a sort of business park area--not at all residential.
i remember it being quick-built. i think most of the congregants have grown old and died off now. very few young ones--just a few born-ins.

same here. local hall has now got a buyer--i understand. ( asking price £500.000.
dwindling membership. sharing with 2 other congregations at a hall 10 miles away.
i had 2 at my door recently---and asked them what was to happen with the money---their reply was its to be used to build more halls in other countries ! i put them right about the true use of it.
i'll start: stilton cheese.. (it was a toss up between that and sweet pickled beetroot).. thank you folks..
give us this day our daily BIGMAC!
for those that dont know--i used to be Bigmac on here till the site got reincarnated.

just a bit of fun..
hey Nic--your second pic--the KH----has the watchtower mob sold it yet ? it would make a nice medical center.
so, on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is absolutely pro-jw, 5 is neutral and 10 is youtubing nutjob apostate, where do you stand?.
i'm probably around a 6. i have the view that jws are a nothing marginal religion.
if i hadn't been brought up as one i doubt they would have ever entered my consciousness.. the reasons it's a 6 and not a 5 is that i have some concerns over their child baptism and safeguarding procedures, but i think it's down to them being a bit dim rather than any pro child abusing ethos.

i draw the line at disrupting their meetings. simply because i wouldnt want to enter a hall or an assembly.
their inhuman shunning policy is wrecking families and causing totally unnecessary stress, misery--and even leading to some poor souls taking the final exit.
as regards the no blood policy--i think the estimated numbers of deaths is way more than reality---but even so--one death is one too many. can you seriously imagine Jesus encouraging a parent to let a child die for want of it ?
ive no issue with the watchtower teachings re: armageddon--resurrection--new world etc----if people choose to believe that nonsense--good luck to them. never gonna happen.

jehovah's witnesses have been involved in vast amount of pedophilia cases.
JW's outside Disneyland ?
perfect
both make believe.
i have some tricks to play.
i know it may sound childish but i feel that creating havoc and forcing the memorial to be postponed will be the highlight of the night!
wish me luck!.
kpop--what is your situation in the congregation ? are you planning to go out with a bang ?
wouldnt it be better to keep a low profile---and try to talk to those who you think might respond well to your viewpoint ? maybe take a few out of the cult with you---rather than alienate all of them in one dramatic gesture.
