  in he's nephews book i could not believe some of the things he mentions.

  when his father died fred franz told his mother he could not go to the funeral because he was just too busy at bethel.

  she spoke to rutherford who ordered him to go.

  I can't believe I bought into this bullshit in the 1970's. I'm so glad I'm over it all and out and living a life at 65.

  Freeloaders is what I remember most of them to be. If they could get by on someone's nickel then it was ok as long as it was free for them

  And then they acted like animals.

  The elders want to see me also

  by MsGrowingGirl20 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i mentioned a few times,that in terms of making my time for the past few months have been really difficult.simply because i cant teach something i don't fully believe...so my service has gone down,i used to comment a lot--haven't done that in a while----meeting attendance like normal but now i don't stay back after...or come early...or help with cleaning..... .

  so some weeks ago the cobo asked me a completely irrelevant and in no way helpful question---"you did't think that i notice how upset you look these days----that's not a fruitage of god's spirit!".

  yeah so today he saw me and asked me a series of question....all which i gave really short answers to...long story short--he says that he would like for me to meet wih the rest of the elders after memorial........ .

  Tell him that your personal life an problems are "YOUR" personal life and problems and that you don't want to tell any body of elders or anyone else what your problems are. It's none of their damn business. Just say that they will be worked out in time and in the mean time.......give me some space.

  They are not trained or educated to help anyone with any type of problem.

  She might be a winner on the tennis court but she is a loser in so many other ways. She probably doesn't even know the latest beliefs of the WT society.

  A mega millionaire wanting Utopia! It ain't gonna happen unless he is a window washer or janitor and will jump when she says jump. (not bashing self employed people. Some of them make more than ones with degrees.) But......I doubt if she even understands the JW belief in headship".

  by leavingwt in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  in the late 70's, my father gave me an 8-track recording of flatt & scruggs' carnegie hall concert from 1962. i became an instant fan.

  earl passed away yesterday, but his music will live forever.

  he was among the greatest banjo players the world has known.

  How Did You View The Elders?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know some who truly believed they were "gifts in men".

  they needed their approval and wanted to be well spoken of by them.. i know some who can't stand elders and regard them as pests, always looking for some dirt on somebody.. i know some who liked maybe one or two but regarded the majority as unqualified.. how did you view the elders??

  ?.

  Before I became an elder, I believed they actually had Jehovah's spirit (holy spirit). When I finally told them to shove it 5 years later I knew that they were a bunch of coniving, self serving bastards with no conscience or concern to the actual problems of individuals. They had their own agenda.

  Phone call from the local JWs this evening...

  by Jim_TX in

  2. friends

  gosh i wish i was better at having religious discussions with jws.

  this evening, as i am at home trying to relax, i get a phone call from the local jws who are evidently sitting in their kh dialing out.. i got this man who starts off by asking me if he can ask me a question.

  "okaaaaay..." i say slowly.... "do you think..." he starts... and then stops... obviously losing his place in his pre-prepared sermon....

  This is why I love caller ID. I don't answer if I don't want to talk and if it shows just a phone number without a name, I don't answer that either. I also have my voice mail deactivated so no one can leave a message. In the past 10 years I only got about 5 or 6 calls from JW's.

  My cell phone is another thing. The only names that show up are those I have programed into it. If I get a call from a number I don't recognize, I don't answer.

  Why celebrate Lent? It is a Catholic tradition and is more false than any other Christian teaching.
