They could give a rat's ass about wild beasts . . . that's not why they're Witnesses.
But that IS why they're Witlesses!
i have been doing some research recently on the society's most recent teachings and statements about the united nations.
as we all know, the society has made some very extreme, very negative statements about the united nations in the past, even as recently as 1999: *** dp chap.

2 days ago i received a phone call from an elder that recently moved to the cong i was in.. this elder is the type that feels that he is a big shot!
he gives parts in dc and ca's.. he asked me if he can come to visit, i told him that my husband had to be present and he had to call in advance to make an appointment.. this elder is so obnoxious and treat women as a 2nd class citizens.
any suggestions?.
Wait...can you get DF'd for kicking an elder in the balls?
Only if he has any.
the apostle paul told the christians in the ancient city of philippi: "this is what i continue praying, that your love may abound yet more and more with accurate knowledge and full discernment.
philippians 1:9
similarly, accurate knowledge is needed for you to be motivated to believe in god.
I think he means Satomail.
for several years there has been available a pay attention to yourselves and to the flock book in pdf and html format.
this book has proven to be extremely valuable in exposing the morally questionable activities of the watchtower society.
now we have a new version that is even more valuable because it contains the hand-written notes of a presiding overseer, some notes as recent as late 2005. these notes are frequently dictated to elders by a circuit overseer or district overseer in order to avoid liability (the wts can deny every giving such instructions).
The book was obtained by an operative of the elite Mission Apostate Force (MAF) who infiltrated the records depository of a local unit of the nefarious WATCHTOWER Corporation. Unfortunately, the actions of this operative were discovered by an unknown third party who exposed his true identity. The operative was liquidated by WATCHTOWER agents soon after his identity was revealed. --VM44
Hmmmm...sounds like MI 4 is in the works.

Not going to be easy post-cremation BUT on the plus side, easier for them to go out in FS. Obviously in a group.
Yeah....stacked like cordwood and delivered to the door.
i know that this is a morbid topic, but i often wonder what kind of funeral that i should have.
i mean, i'm not associated with any religion.
i don't want a preacher there speaking about the afterlife or trying to recruit followers.
oh, and make sure you all use up the rest of my bulk buy paints on the walls.
Some Peter Max-type stuff O.K.? Always dug the 60's art.

Funny how Jehovah lowers his standards that way ain't it?
That's correct-o-mundo Gumdude. Just like lower hours for pioneers, blood fractions can be used, college is O.K. now....yadda-yadda-yadda. They'll probably find some way to "spin" infant baptisms if the numbers go down enough...maybe even baptize the dead like the Mormons do.

Or does the fact that I'm the biggest "apostate" in my state mean I might not get in?
Uhhhh.....yeah.
