The use of toilet paper at the kingdumb hell is influenced by the principle that God's people do not waste the precious resources (ie MONEY) that shoud be directed to the Faithful Slave.

Therefore Christians take a morphine-based anti diarrhoea medicine before attending, so there can be no bowel movement before returning home. Anti nausea/vomiting medication is also advised, so revulsion at the blasphemy and manipulation does not result in a soiled carpet.

Unbelievable Assertion!!!!!!!

by The Searcher in

we had our special assembly day this weekend.. what the district overseer stated in his talk totally stunned me, and made me feel sick to my stomach.

he said, "christ is directing us through the governing body, and we cannot get holy spirit except through them!".

i do not wish to reveal all my thoughts on his statement, but i pray to god that it acts as a wake-up call to at least some of the audience.. suffice to say that the gb is now the mediator to our mediator, and from now on, i will have to pray for holy spirit through the name of the gb!!.

"If you, although wicked, know how to give good things to your children, how much more will your Heavenly Father give HOLY SPIRIT to those asking him."

Who said this? Pretty ignorant wasnt he?

They actually printed a definition of "WICKED". it was in a Witchtower in the early 80s.

People are wicked if "they are of no use to Jehovah" ( read "Watchtower Organisation"). In other words:

Anybody with common sense, who refuses to let the Gibbering Buddies squeeze out their juice screw them over and then tell them "it's your own fault for having expectations - you CHOSE to believe it."

Enjoyed it immensely. For exdub exes, this will give so many helpful pointers. So sad how their mother has alienated them.

EVENTUAL truth and the claim of being "corrected" by Jehovah

by Terry in

we've all heard the old saying:.

any job worth doing is worth doing right the first time.. but, this would not seem to apply in the only organization on earth claiming to be solely guided by jehovah!.

in the watchtower society, the governing body gathers in a board room and prays, discusses and votes.

How can the light get "brighter" when they go back to an older teaching?

Yet a WT said that the Borg cannot go back to a teaching that was "thoroughly discredited by the scriptures". ( they did that in the to ing and fro ingabout the "generation."HAHAHAHA)

Remember the Witchtower study last year that said that what the Churches of Christendom teach is "basically worthless?"

Yet they quote constantly from dictionaries made by Rev. Dr. Vine and others.

The Churches taught the meaning of the parable of the mustard seed, and the leaven as being the growth of the Christian Congregation from small beginnings.

The WT said it was a prophecy of massive apostasy.

Guess what? They changes it to the same meaning taught in the "basically worthless" books of Christendom, then say jehovah's Spirit guided them.

Same thing happened with the parable of the dragnet...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Incident with the Jehovah's Witness babysitter...

by garyneal in

jw
friends

my youngest daughter is so cute, she loves singing and loves being festive.

when i put up the tree, she loved saying, "it's christmas, it's pretty...." her babysitter, a witness from my wife's hall, lives next door to a neighbor who put up decorations in the yard like i did in front of our apartment.

when we leave her house, she would run next door to look at the "christmas" as she would say, "look, the christmas.

NEVER EVER leave your child alone with a Jehovah's Witness.

Why is the WT idea of personal responsibility so skewed?

by hamsterbait in

if an adult member of a congo invites a few grown-up people round to his house, he is responsible for their conduct.

if for instance a couple sneek away into the garden for a bit of smack and tickle - he is held responsible for this by the elders, even if he was unaware that it had happened.. yet a child is the sole responsibility of the parents, even if they are not there when a predator molests them.

(didnt the "defence" in the california cases revolve around the argument that the elders have no duty of care for children in the congregation?).

Why are the parents responsible and not the predator who invited the CHILD for some "spiritual activity?"

Why is responsibility not placed squarely on the shoulders of the adults who indulged in wrongdoing?

A few years ago there was a party at a hired hall. The word got out and there was a huge number of uninvited gatecrashers, who either did not know how to behave properly, or thought whatever I do it will be the mug who organised it who will be in trouble. Things got out of hand. The well -meaning Brother who organised it was dragged over the coals by the elduhs and was so hurt by the behavior that he no longer wants Da Troof.

Any other examples?
