I like the idea that since Adam and Eve were
naked and not ashamed then as a major, or
in my case a minor fulFILLment, then all the
survivors and res'd ones would also be naked.
I love to float this one out when ever sisters are
present when post A conditions are discussed.
hahahahahahhahahahahahhaha

(of the NO costum Klass)
this fact appeared as a rumor on this board some time.
ago.
i can confirm it, as i once saw it with my own eyes.. a c.o.
Patricia,
IMHO i also think this would be most difficult due to "cult"
mentality that exists. If a dub deviates the very slighest
from the daily double dubspeak he/she is immedialely to
be marked, passed over and if this persists that person
is removed and labeled. Very, very tight control.
best wishes to ya,

where did all the fun times go?
i was looking at the june 1, 1985 watchtower, pg.
29-31 with its legalistic baptism vows, where one recognizes their association with gods spirit-directed organization, when i was struck by the context of the article.. essentially it gives a last minute warning about proper decorum with swim-wear used for baptism a serious and solemn occasion.
The ARC of da covenant is long missing
but relieved to hear that there is an ARC
(Anal Retentive Class) in brooklyn. LOL

you gotta love the watchtower printing corporation.
they sell air and they make a bloody fortune doing it!
knorr was selling air that made people feel good, even though they couldnt explain exactly why it made them feel good.. here we have some comments about a watchman classtm whose main sin is not wanting to sell watchtower books.
Dear Spiritual one,
Before i buy some of that spiritual air I wanna noe
does it come in different scents (or cents). I heard
it waz suppose to be free. So wots up wid selling
this stuff. Could I make a tax free donation instead.
Go Farkel, go.. you be da man LOL

while it is not impossible to have a happy marriage in the jw religion for many it is hard, for some it is very hard to maintain happiness in their marriage.
the watchtower raises the bar so very high in every aspect of life, marriage included.
the watchtower literature encourages a jw married couple to be practically perfect, or at least that is the goal set before them.
Dear Golden Golpher,
Sounds exactly like my situation. WOW that
hurts!!!! All you other poster are also just great.
It helps with the healing process to put a finger
on what the hell really happened.
Yikes,

a "Badger" fan
in the april 1, 2002 issue of the watchtower, an article appears entitled "keep on serving jehovah with a steadfast heart".
paragraph 14 of this article states: "if jehovah's organization knowingly endorsed false teachings, advice to read the bible would never be given to jehovah's witnesses and those to whom they preach.".
i am withholding comment on this statement, because i'd like to hear from any who would like to post a response.
To all of the above: just how do you define "is" ? The GB
are just like slick willie. puke

i've noticed in my congregation that attendance does not have the priority that it once did.
it seems like on any given theocratic ministry school meeting there will be at least one or two subsitutions.
some of the younger elders and ministerial servants tend to miss quite a few meetings and others have the habit of arriving 30 minutes after the meeting has started.
Hiya Lea,
you be right about that. i have noticed the same thing.
I haven't been to a meeting in over a year and missed the
last two memorials and basically they leave me alone.
just grew a beard and still no interest. we will see what
happens this summer when i remarry and if they consider
me "free".
i consider my self very free at least until i get hitched.
things are getting so boring i am the only one even
responding.
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

so much of jw belief is based on just one or two scriptures, while they ignore the thrust of true christianity!
here are some examples:.
1. the faithful and discreet slave--mentioned once in the bible.
Hi Lisa,
Hi again. Matt 24:14 talks about preaching through out
the entire inhabited world, not specifily "door to door.
To the best of my knowledge no where in the bible does
it talk about "door to door". In fact there is a scripture
that admonishes one NOT to go "house to house". The
fav scripture about the "door to door" type (antitypica hehe)
comes where Paul is explaining the type of work that he
did, not instructing them as to what they should do. The
correct translation there is "in your houses (of worship)
absolutely NOT from "house to house".

Hiya Lisa,
Very good post. My only question is on
5. Door to Door Work, mentioned ONCE in the Bible.
Where is it even mentioned once? IMHO I do not
think this stewalrt of "true chirstianity" even appears
once. hahahahahahahahahahaha

the watchtower society must indeed suffer from a severe lack of humble people.. in their search for an example of humility and humbleness they actually name their second president, j. f. rutherford, a man still known for his complete lack of anything resembling humility.
hoping for the usual total ignorance among the r&f the watchtower wrote this:.
*** w93 2/1 19 what godly subjection requires of us ***.
<godly subjection was once furnished by Joseph Rutherford,>
The operative word is "once".
"Once" in 30 years is not bad.
Everybody should be humble at
least "once" in their entire life.
hahahahahahaha
