i needed to reboot so i did a normal shutdown.

no big deal.. it shutdown and started to come back up but never got past the post.

so i rebooted again and got the same thing... i opened it up to see what was going on and noticed there was a lot of dust collected on the cpu cooling fan and fins.

Shocker!!!---leading up to my plan

well folks, i started writing a big post and then the keyboard acted up on me, so i lost everything i was saying.

first of all amanda was right, this isnt anything i can just walk away from, it is'nt something that i can just put behind me and move on.

this involves my sexuality and my childhood experience growing up in the jw cult.

Bryan

Dave, I hope you're well and it's great seeing you take your life back. Be patient. There's no Armageddon looming over your head now.

Best,

The Mystery behind the Conventions and Assemblies

by The wanderer in

jw

the mystery behind the conventions and assembliesin the organization, the idea behind the conventions was to unite gods people under one roof.. .

looking back and knowing it is not gods organization raises.

a few questions about the conventions and assemblies.. what was the real motivation behind the conventions?did the watchtower hold conventions to show the world god has a united people?.

Bryan

I agree with Farkel and would add that the assemblies are good ol' time revivals. Something to keep the rank and file thirsty for more propaganda. Unlike the traveling Baptist preacher, the watchtower not only manages to collect monies, but they also get the JW's to pay for the event.

i used to go to strip clubs with another fellow elder when we would go out of town on "business".

i believe those lapdances could've gotten us removed.

don'tcha think?

Bryan

I knew an elder (League City, TX) who had an affair with a ministerial servant's wife. She left hubby, 10 year old boy and 6 year old daughter.

when i was a kid,kingdom halls still had windows.thats a while ago..as a kid i was told in the last days,jehovah`s witness`s would be rounded up and be put into concentration camps..i was told,when the government came to take me away and seperate me from my parents,i should wear my warmest coat and boots.as i would have to fend for myself in the concentration camp..i was told never to give up my faith.even if they tied my parents to a stake and was foced to light the fire that would burn them alive.....jehovah`s witness`s are the "happiest people on earth!

".....do you have any happy memorys like mine?...outlaw

Bryan

Yes, I was told we had to make the meetings because you never knew when the elders would tell us to meet in secret after the authorities came for us.

I also discover in the last 2 years that one of my stepsisters still is dealing with her fear of 1975. She was 13 then and was sure Jah was going to destroy her. Funny the lasting effects of cult mind control.
