OldSoul that was such a marvelous line....my brother and I would rewind that part about 3-4 times just to get a laugh.
Kill You.....Mutha F**ka I'll Kill You!!!.....Blade Trinity...(Blade to the cop dude)
that was so remarkable....i wish i could be artistic like that....
i am, right now, watching vh-1's history of the jacksons and in particular, the charges filed against him.. they just showed how mrs. jackson became a devout jw, showed the kh, and a few wt mags.
then, without expecting it, there was bill bowen!
talking about the epidemic of abuse in this church.
Just a thought.....
I wonder how many people up there in Bethel are watching this right now or watched the earlier broadcast....getting together some new ideas for the KM or other publications about how much they are being mentioned today in a very...no pun intended...."NEW LIGHT".. because i know alot of people are probably watching it and paying more attention to it now because of the court cases coming up........just a thought i had as my coworker and I are sitting here watching it and I'm able to give a "witness" lol about the witnesses......

bikerchic, i''m watching that right now...
I just checked the t.v. schedule, and it is on at 9 p.m. EASTERN time tonight, also
and the one on VH-1 is coming on again at midnight CST..so i dont know what time that is other places...
as you posters know my mom has been a "devout" jw for over 40 years and just won't bend when it comes to the faults of the wts.
i have talked until i was blue in the face for over 10 years since da'd myself in 1993 but just can't crack my mom.
well she made another ridiculous comment to me the other day in her attempts to get me "reinstated" back as a jw.
From my many personal experiences and from observation...and i know many of you here may not agree.....but IMHO when some leave the organization they act like they have just gotten out of prison....and even tho you can compare it to that...it's what they do when they actually have that freedom that can put them in the example crowd..."oh so-and-so has been having it soooo hard since they left the borg" or you have the ones that appreciate their new found freedom and just are happy that they now have an inner peace....those are the ones you never hear anything about.....
From my own circuit...when i was still in the borg i would hear gossip all the time about ones that have left ONLY when BAD things happened to them and they'd become an example..."poor so-and-so has been having it so bad since they've been out"....but on the other hand when you leave and live a normal life the only thing you hear is "have you seen so-and-so....they just disappeared".......
so it depends on what people do with their freedom that makes people talk or not talk...or in MJ's case....well i can't explain his case but with all the cases of molestations and so forth in the borg today..who's to say they wouldnt support him along with all the other molesters that are being "hidden" among the borg...if he was still in the borg maybe he wouldnt have all the hoopla.....
ok imma stop now because what's in my head that i want to share is not really coming out like i want it too..and i don't want to come across wrong....
free your minds!.
root for new england!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
i love you all!
xjw i did that too a long time ago (probably why i did poorly in geography)....
I'm rooting for the Patriots too ONLY because my team The Atlanta Falcons didnt make it and Philly beat them so yes
Go Patriots Go!!!
my mother told me today that its going to be held a special meeting in all congregations worldwide at march 7.. .
some new information is going to be released, and its very very secret indeed.
we are not supposed to tell anyone what we heard at this meeting to the ones who have the meeting later the same week.
reading over this and the other thread it reminds of when my step mother used to tell me about one day all the "faithful" witnesses will be allowed into the kingdom hall and Jehovah will not allow any of the "unfaithful" ones to come in...and then a "big secret" will be given to all the faithful ones and they won't be allowed to tell anyone who wasnt there to hear it for themselves...wonder if thats what finally gonna happen???
someone informed me today that in two months time there will be a "special announcement" to all congregations.
everyone must be present at the kingdom hall for it.
my elders already know what it is, but won't tell me.
and the saddest part of it with all these changes is that instead of seeing direct u-turns/corrections to what was said years ago....all will just accept these changes as "new light" instead of the "new lie".......IMHO if God is directing someone (as dubs say they are being directed) would you continually follow someone that gives you wrong direction and then have to turn around years later and go back the other way....
In my bible and many other bibles it says God can't lie so if you say something this year and then next year change it...doesnt that make what you said this year untrue..or rather a lie.....why does God...my bad....JEHOVAH keep giving them wrong info only to give them the correct info in a few years.....why is it so plain for us to see and none of the dubs.....brainwashing is a mutha f#*&^

is that all??
i am at work and i have just over heard one of my colleagues speaking to another colleague about religion.. i was on a call with a customer at the time, i could hear him speaking about jesus and the randsom.
i thought i was hearing things, then the penny dropped.
i knew he looked familiar.
i posted this a long time ago, but i started a new job as a receptionist and a girl there i recognized as a dub...but anyways..she was talking to me everyday....talking about books we've read that she has or hasn't read...one that she had read was by ZANE...if any of you know about her..she doesn't write any PG books....know what i mean? anyways...i then came to the conclusion she was still a good litlle dub but doing some things un-dublike and so on and so forth..anyways..i never told her i was df'd and she never had any idea that i used to be a dub....anyways lo and behold my dubbie mom came to my job one day and they had a big dubbie greeting extravganza....lol...and my mom mentioned to her i was df'd....she stopped talking to me cold turkey.....it only pissed me off because she was doing stuff that i did and we laughed and talked about it but then because im not a dub no more...im the bad guy......so stupid....but she's the better person in their book because she still had the title of JW.....screwy people they are....
