looking back on my two decades as a jehovah’s witness, i’ve come to realize how the constant theme of endurance is playing a detrimental role on the individual's psyche.. jehovah’s witnesses have become far too good at keeping going.
they’re experts at surrendering to the demands of the watchtower, living up to what’s expected of them, and getting on with the priorities that those in power have defined and imposed upon them.
they keep showing up, presenting themselves a dutiful pioneer or ministerial servant.
Very well written.
I've often told the story that about 20 years ago, I took the time to take an inventory of the ones seated at a weekly meeting. As my eyes moved around the K-Hall, I made mental notes as to who I knew that were either on anti-depressants, or were suffering some new stress related ailment. Virtually every family had an individual, or more dealing with it.
It hasn't changed. Just more new ailments. So sad.
it looks like justin trudeau and his comrades caved in to kinder morgans artificial deadline and bought the transmountain pipeline for 4.5 billion taxpayer dollars.
its not a bad deal if they actually finish the expansion.
if not we just bailed out an american company and are on the hook for 4 and a half billion.
my ex-god had an unusual sense of justice.
you see, his human son broke the law.
so, my ex-god thought there needed to be some form of justice.
My Ex-God had an unusual sense of justice. You see, his human son broke the law. So, my Ex-God thought there needed to be some form of justice. So it thought it would sacrifice it's first born son to himself (My Ex-God) to balance out the wrong, to himself, so that justice was done!
I think that's right, no?
so, once again the society has produced a cringe-worthy, spew-inducing piece of "cinema".. i don't recognise this religion anymore...... enjoy this review:.

The brother said.... "sorry about the interuption". Wow.
Did anyone else get a creepy feeling watching the brothers gather around and with a monotonous tone recited the instructions from the society about how to handle these things?

female martyrs will be chief of 72 virgins the fairest of the women, and plus she will made beautiful , happy and without jealousy .."whoopee" their paradise is worst than jw's paradise..
Just serving their men will be paradise enough..
this just in from the 2017 annual meeting:.
1. watchtowers and awakes won't be released regularly, at least three watchtower and awakes per year.
6 magazines a year.. 2. a new book is being released: remain in god's love, more of an update like how they did for the what does the bible really teach book.
Going digital makes things a lot simpler. Less cost, and much easier re-writing of history.
