I really hate when somebody sh*ts all over your thread. They start having a personal conversation off topic or something like that.

I admit having used the "shock and awe" topic title tactic to draw in unsuspecting posters. Im becoming power hungry like the GB.

so many times we second guess god or our conception of him and we discuss why this or that does not make sense or could not be, or is not fair.. then how would you if you were god (with unlimited power) handle rebellion?
For one thing I would let them SEE me so that they would actually know that I exist and that there will be consequences for their actions. I wouldnt make up stupid rules that are not important for the well being of the civilization either.. basicly the only rule I would have would be to treat other people the way you want to be treated. If they really screw up I wouldnt murder them - I wouldnt make people pre-disposed to anti social behavior like stealing and murder.
All in all its a tough question to answer because all we know is the world we have now, and the way we inherently think. Id change basically everything.

the latest awake has, on its final inside page, a section called "for family review" that consists of questions.
that witless families can ask their kids after they've read the magazine.
this new feature follows questions.
:Come on guys/gals...what are you doing better before you condemn?
hmmm... not running a f**cked up religious cult come to mind.. not cohersing people to deny life saving blood transfusions, not shunning my friends and family, not having sex with the alleged wild beast of Revelation, ect. ad nauseum.
I think helping formerly brain dead cultists out of the dubs is better than forcing people to sell religeous propaganda. IMO.
from the new organized to do jehovah?s will (od) pages 18, 19. this is from a new chapter (3) in the book ?trusting the faithful and discreet slave?.
why trust "the faithful and discreet slave".
there are many reasons to have complete trust in the slave class.
:"If you have God's spirit, you will understand the deeper things of the bible and his organization."
OMG, so now they are claiming to have special 'spirit' powers. They have never gotten anything right but they have the special powers that nobody else can question. So funny.

:Are the stones going to cry out and tell us how coffee is made? How film are produced? What a butterfly is? about the world's libraries?
LMAO. It's not like any of the witnesses read this junk anyways. They could be writing articles endorsing the UN and nobody would notice.. wait.. they already are..

I find it so hard to believe now in retrospect that I bought this kind of circular reasoning for so long. Just insane. Interestingly enough they arent mentioning much about their alleged appointment via BS chronology these days.

cheers!
I've been to Seashelt lots.. I absolutely LOVE it out there. I don't know any witnesses from there though that I recall.
GBL
i am so upset right now that i cannot even get my thoughts clear enough to explain what just happened.
i just know i need to vent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
background: my 17 yr. old neice doesn't want to be a witness.
Man I was in the same boat when I was a kid. You have to go to meetings while under their roof. They constantly brain wash you to get baptised. You can't have a witness girlfriend unless you are baptised and you can't have a worldly girlfriend period. You get baptised. You move out on your own. You realize its all bullsh*t. You disassociate yourself. You can't talk to your family.
Obviously its all her fault.

Mine was really simple. They arent going to read it anyway. I just wanted the announcement.
