i was reading a article about a national acclaim charles lummis for.
his poetry.
in 1884, while working at a newspaper in ohio, he was offered.
Great thread!!
question: how does the leadership of jehovah's witnesses instruct its members to prepare for the eventual elder care of its members?.
answer: it pretends it will never happen!.
is this responsible leadership or some kind of cognitive dissonant malfeasance?.
Powerful post, Terry!
now that i've been away from the cult going on 4 years, one huge absurdity that sticks out in my mind is that we were doing things out of service to an invisible king.
let me repeat an invisible king, whose only proof that he existed was through a global public relations magazine distribution campaign.
no visible show of this king's sovreignty, no activity by this king to act on his campaign platform.
Thinking About: Yeah, good one!

This experience is absolutely mind-blowing!! I remember much of this as I was at Bethel at the time, but upon learning even more of the details, I have so much respect for Mariuca. And what a pathetic cult JWs are - anyone who thinks they are God-directed needs to read this experience.

Darth Frosty: You're on point w/those observations. Completely agree!

I feel Mariuca's story has the potential to be as powerful and impactful in scope as someone like a Barb Anderson, because it gives you some of the inner workings of things at Bethel!
funny picture in new public watchtower.
evidently there was a digital camera taking pictures about 3,500 years ago.
noah had family worship night in the ark, so all you slackers have no excuse!
Wow, this is truly absurd!

Darth: Yes, that line really puts in perspective how pathetic the JW concept of dating is. Because you really don't know a person until you live with them. But in JW world, you go on a dates in a group setting (museum, etc) and with chaperones. Its even worse at the Bethel level. So its no surprise that there's much sexual incompatability along with the emotional and psychological incompatability.
