  grateful to my Elders..No talks, no FS time, no privledges....no problem!

  by oompa in

  2. beliefs

  so one year of lots of questions and showing doubts, and missing quite a few meetings but still going out in service, doing mics, reading, hall projects...then i get the new light from society regarding the letter i sent them (wow, stunned me, blew me away) and i let them know how i felt about it and i quit the ministry after 40 active years.

  nobody says anything about this, no counsel, no will you go out with us on saturday.

  not a single "were is your time for the month" phone call.

  The same happened with the elders in my hall. They came and talked to me once when my wife told them I had visited "apostate" sites and then they didn't do anything after that. When she questioned them about it they said "He'll come around." Turns out that she got tired of waiting for them to help me so she came around instead, but to my point-of-view.

  During that year of inactivity they'd send a message home with her every now and again. I remember her saying at one point, "Bro. PO said that if you don't turn in time this month you'll be officially inactive." I said that I didn't care about that to which she said she figured I wouldn't but she didn't know why they didn't tell me themselves, maybe try to encourage me or something. It wouldn't have made a difference. She left shortly after that.

  there would never be a good time to have this conversation.

  quite different from most people raised a witness, i have very few horror stories about my upbringing.

  my family was just a family, my mom and dad fought and argued, my siblings and i misbehaved and got in trouble.. .

  it's a great book if you have a sense of humor about god and christ in fact he quotes voltare in the begining.

  "god is a comedian playing to an audience that's afraid to laugh".

  MY DAD MIGHT DIE DUE TO THE 'NO BLOOD' DOCTRINE

  by Mary in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  i don't have much time to post as i'm headed back to the hospital, but my father collapsed this morning and had to be rushed to the hospital.

  in a nutshell: he needs a blood transfusion as his hemoglobin is dropping (bleeding internally), but thanks to this fucking cult, that's not an option...........he'll accept the fractions but those bastards from the blood liaison committee have already shown up to ensure he doesn't cave............... for those of you who still believe, i'm asking you to say a prayer for my dad........and if anyone from crooklyn is reading this: you better hope my father doesn't die due to your fucked up rules, .

  Ouchiewawa! It looks great. Excellent design. Looks like it will be hard to reach. I hope you have someone to apply lots of natural coco butter to it while it heals.

  Yes, my wife is around to put the moisturizer on for me. I'll have to do it for her when she gets hers in a couple months.

  How much time did you spend in the chair?

  It was an hour and a half all together. Not too horrible, but I don't think I'll be getting one done on or near my spine any time soon. It smarts!
