  Congregation given gagging order after mugging

  by ballistic in

  in a congregation near to me, an elders son made headline news in the local paper after mugging someone to steal their wallet and coat.

  although the newspaper named him and reported that he had been arrested for the said crimes, an elder made a serious toned announcement at the following thursday meeting that any gossip about the matter would be speculation and possible slander and went on to admonish everyone from the bible to not carry on loose talk.. the reason i bring this up is not becuase of the conduct of the lad who had obviously decided to leave the land of jw, but the announcement.

  the fact it was an elders son got this special attention - at least i think so.

  Gee, I guess talking about a news article NOW qualifies as slander and speculation in J-Dub land-that is, of course if the subject of the article is an elders son. That is the ONLY reason the elders put the "gag" order in effect. Lemme tell ya-any other dub would have been fair game to the normal talk of such an incident. I know, I have been there. No elder gave a hoot about whether I was innocent till proven guilty-in fact, they DF'd me in pretty short order. Eventually, the charges were dismissed for a very good reason-I was FALSELY accused, and the person who did so lied before fleeing the state.

  The elders you speak of are just protecting one of their own.

  Arrogance Beyond Belief

  by Farkel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  all down through history, men and women have stepped forward and proclaimed that they clearly understand bible prophecy.

  they've all been wrong.

  that's supreme arrogance.. but in the last one hundred years, men of the watchtower have stepped forward and proclaimed that they not only clearly understand bible prophecy, but that they themselves clearly are bible prophecy being unfolded.. they are the latter day fulfillment of noah, abraham, moses, elijah, elisha, ruth, esther, naomi, isaiah, jeremiah, ezekiel, nahum, zephaniah, habukkuk, zechariah, john the baptist, the apostle john and the good parts of the revelation.

  I'd call em a bunch of FIP-DUCKS who have convinced unsuspecting book-selling followers that their OWN press release is true.

  What's Your Favorite Quote?

  i ran across this recently.

  so, i guess its my new favorite quote.

  "the difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'.

  Anybody Still Searching For The Truth???

  or is it something unattainable or not even real?

  I am certainly not searching for any kind of religious truth-there are simply too many religious organizations with their own spin on things. Christian, Muslim, Jewish, etc-they all have differing views within their own belief systems.

  I prefer to be concerned with my own inner spirituality, and not base it on any man-made religious rules.
