My son was murdered today

by truman in

i have been on this site daily, almost from its beginning, since i left the jws in 2001, but i have been more of a reader than a poster, as you can see from my post count.

i know few here know me, although i know many of you through reading your posts.

maybe it is not right to ask for support, when i generally stay quietly in the background of this forum, but i want only to speak a human misery of the deepest kind.

yeah in the section on attending the convention, you will find this gem:.

"therefore, we should give attention to our dress and grooming while in the convention city, including when we check in at the hotel.

arriving in shorts and a t-shirt would not reflect dignity.".

LOL...

Check out those Kardashian "birthin' hips"!

I am disturbed by this video and am not sure what to make of it?

i warn you, there are some graphic images.

it seems like a young person who was insulted by a fellow jw made a video about burning her and the rest of the jw's in the kingdom hall.

what do you make of this?

The kind of dribble love-sick fantasy-prone girls write.

Hmmmm....we've got a couple of those here!

How Will the Society React to the Hundred Year Anniversary of 1914?

it's only a couple of years away now and what a headache it must present to the gb - providing they have given it much thought already.

there probably is no elegant way of presenting the hundred year long failure of the end to come; the fact that the "short period of time" of satan being cast down to the earth has now stretched beyond any credibility.

but they have to deal with it one way or another.

It will give them another opportunity to ask "Is It Later Than You Think".

Behind the scenes, they'll be celebrating the centinial celebration of a great Corporation. The bestest organization ever!!

What's the JW reaction to new 16 page mags????

by diamondiiz in

if you've been to the meeting when the letter was read, what was jw reaction????

just curious if it was just another sign that the end is nearer or did any wake up for a second to realize the corporation is downsizing due to costs..

The bro that gave the talk said something that I thought was telling. He mentioned that the work was being simplified. Then he mentioned that it seemed that most of what we are doing now is inviting people to our special events. Pointed to the Memorial "campaign", then the invite to the "Special" talk, and that soon we would be inviting folks to the summer conventions.

No more 5 minute sermons with 2 scriptures read and applied?? Those were the days.
