disgusting!.
Mom: "What can you tell Carrie at school?"
Sophia: "Well, I can tell Carrie about paradise and about how her mommies are going to die right on the cusp of it in a fiery Armageddon. Afterward Carrie and I can help bury their bodies once the birds pick them clean and we can live forever happy, because you know, Carrie won't even miss her mommies."
That's how it should have ended. Disgusting.
today's wt has the below scripture as it's theme.
friday of the rc has the same as it's theme.
the silver nwt is alone in using the word loyalty in this verse.
i was reading this week's study article on remaining loyal to jah.
found an interesting contradiction on shunning.
they cite two experiences.
Jehovah's standards are unchanging. Let us never imitate the world in popular styles of dress or grooming. Let us shun their entertainment. But let us imitate their media so as to indoctrinate more people. You shall be no part of the world, not as the organization is no part of the world.
Hypocritical a$$hats.

i am a male, born into the jw cult(ure), baptized as a teen, now mid fifties.
most of my life i dreamed of hugging pandas and lions, punctuated at times by nightmares of armageddon or jw drama and politics.
still going through the motions for still-in wife.
I wonder how many found 2014 to be the end for them. My wife and I quit altogether after day one of our international conventions in Indianapolis. We left about 3/4 of the way through with my wife in tears and me angry. The relief felt after walking out was instantaneous, and we never returned. It still took until September of 2015 for us to officially disassociate. We had started doubting years before, but the idiocy spewed at that first day, then Tony's ridiculous remarks, the ARC hit, it was just a year of gut punches to one finally waking up. Not to mention the passive aggressive assertion that 2014 could have been our final memorial. I could see when that was written that it was control wrapped in false hope.
I'm sorry that your wife isn't along for the journey yet. We all have to do things on our own time. Good for you though, and welcome to the forum!
why do people care so much about celebrities?
The Watchtower Bible & Tract Society will be celebrating an annual Memorial of Prince's death on Nelson 14th according to the Lunatic calendar.
Nathan Natas just won the internet for the day, lol.
if this is true, and we will have to wait and see.
prince could give everything to the watchtower.
so that's his $300 million fortune.
zalkin proposing huge sanctions if jw leadership fails to produce documents.
unredacted this time!
feds need to get involved with this.
interesting article i found about prince and the jw religion.
i guess they are trying to get their 15 minutes of fame.
i find it disturbing that the elder stated if prince had an addiction to prescription drugs, that is a personal matter but the hundreds of intrusive jw rules like going to college (not scriptural) and growing a beard (also not scriptural) are not also considered a personal choice.
