we get plenty of company men passing through our circuit, often filled with misinformation and lugging around a suitcase of guilt, they bring more guilt to the weak while praising the braggart pioneers and slapping the "righteous over much" elders.
why are the wrong people getting praise in this distorted community?
i know for a fact many of the elders i served with have issues with alcoholism, when "brother guilt" brought his emotional hurricane through our circuit, i had the chance to eat and help pay for his "seven shots of tequila", both him and his wife were not immune to over-indulgences.
For single people the sheer frustration of loneliness, in the midst of meaningless unfulfilling friendships, the constant put downs of not being good enough, the contradtictions, the nagging fear that after all the changes maybe you have wasted your life.
No time or money for anything else - booze is cheap. Drowning your sorrows and disappointments. need I go on?

NAVYTOWN has it: the gibbering buddies certainly know the important things to focus on.
Dont help the poor or the sick or orphaned or the disabled or the starving. You are in the Borg to PREACH PREACH PREACH and get money.
They control every detail of your life - thats what we all got sick of.
okay, it's just one scientist: http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/g201404/frederic-dumoulin-interview/.
but he's a very eminent one!.
for more than a decade, frederic dumoulin has worked in the field of pharmaceutical research ... studied the effects of medications and toxins on living creatures ... such design simply could not have evolved.

How could an organ of delight such as the blackbird (that bears the bell) have evolved like mine?

PANTS JUST RIGHT? NOOO Noooo NOo - you are just hiding the fact that you want to be a rapper seduced into illicit sex by homosexual fashion designers.

there's an interesting medicolegal issue arising out of tx, a pregnant women who suffered a pulmonary embolism in november and died (when she was 14 weeks pregnant).. however, the body has been kept on life-support all this time (against her and her husband's wishes), due to an ambiguous tx state law (tex hs.
code ann.
166.049) which actually blocks the ability of the patient and family to decide:.
Would the medics involved face being charged by the police and put on trial if they switched off the machines and let the fetus die?
If so, what charges? Could it ruin their career?
Most doctors are caring and compassionate. I am sure there is more to this than bullheaded stubbornness on their part.

so, normally if i go to a meeting i sit and don't say a word through the entire ordeal.
however today i just could not keep my big mouth shut.. it was funny that i even got called on....three times none-the-less.
of course 99% of the sheeple just sat with blank looks on their mugs this morning.
Are you sure they werent "DYKES" indicating a change of heart and letting women become elders?
my facebook was "lit up" today with all the out cries about the possibility of the organization's website being banned in russia.. as many of you recall this past august a court in russia banned the website and sought to make accessing the website in russia illegal.
well tomorrow the appeal by the org will be heard in court.
if the appeal is denied, jw.org will no longer be available in that part of the world, causing endless lamentations and cries of "persecution", only to bolster the idea that they are truly hated by the world because they are true christians.
The governments are all eager to control the internet, and our freedoms of thought and expression.
If we do nothing when something we dislike is banned, eventually when the governments come after US there will be nobody left to support us.
Let people make up their own minds.
one of their spiritual sisters said that since jesus attended weddings, that makes it okay to celebrate annual wedding anniversaries.
using this logic, since jesus approved of and attended his own baptism, that should, therefore, make it okay for jehovah's witnesses to celebrate their spiritual birthdays on that same day every year.
how exciting to have this new adjustment to our understanding of birthdays!
Some people started doing this in the 80s - the borg quickly clamped down on it.
The only thing witlesses are allowed to celebrate is their wedding anniversary (ie their first F***)
Who says jehoobie isnt a fertility god?
in johns gospel jesus refers to the "helper" "the spirit of truth" saying "when he arrives he will etc".
the wt justified their use of he in this instance, because in greek the word is masculine gender.. (aside from the ludricrousness of this argument - english does have neuter pronouns).
have they changed he to it inthese passages?.
Can anybody paste up the relevant verses from this Wonderful NOO provision from the Gibbering Buddies?
