Tinker told me about this documentary and I finally got around to watching it. I thought it was great. I'm wondering if anyone else has seen it. I'm also wondering what you think a JWs reaction would be to it. I plan on watching it with my wife. It will be interesting to see what she says.

I'm thinking Camp Pendleton. Then of course there's the nasty old nuclear power just south and overlooking the beach.

Known Pedophile takes young boy to bathroom at circuit assembly....WTF?
by QuestioningEverything inmy mil's circuit assembly was this past weekend.
she came over for dinner to our home after the assembly.
in conversation, it came up that a known pedophile was seen walking to the bathroom holding a young boy's hand-no relation to the boy at all, although that wouldn't make a difference!

The purpose of escorting a child into the bathroom is to protect them from perverts. It would be better to let the child go in on his own and take his chances than to have a known perv go in with him.
If the kid is that young then why wouldn't the mother just take him into the womens bathroom with her? This makes no sense but then again odd things happen in JWland.

MsGrowingGirl20 is no longer one of......
by MsGrowingGirl20 ini am no longer one of jehovah's witnesses(well mentally that is)---however i am a christian...i recently started reading different translations from www.biblegateway.com...jesus is so different to how the jw's teach....and god...i mean, i still am learning and confused about certain things but i am in love with them.... it's obvious that the jw's are not an organization of god.i don't think god is working through an organization but through individuals...however i am going to speak to an elder tomorrow about my issues---all of them---and i'm going to tell him everything--what i've been reading,where i got it from---everything!!
i'm not hiding anything!
i have done no wrong....i just want to be a true christian and if they disfellowship me for seeking answers then this is not where i need to be.

That's great MsGrowingGirl. It is always nice to see someone who is willing to stand up for what they believe even though they know it won't make them very popular. Before you say anything though make sure that you are ready for the repercussions that will follow. In the Watchtower you can go from having what you thought were hundreds of friends to none of them even willing to give you the time of day overnight just by saying you no longer believe that the WT is God's organization.
And don't expect them to answer your question because they really don't have any once you see through the lies. Once they know how you feel they won't be trying to find answers to your question. Their main concern will putting you on trial and getting rid of you. Remember now that you are out of their mental control you have no obligation to attend any meeting they may plan for you unless you want to participate. If you do decide to go then go on your terms. Tell them you want to bring a friend, a spouse, a pastor or whoever. You can also tell them you want to record it so there is a record of what transpired just like in a real court. The should pretty well put an end of them wanting to meet with you. They like to do their deeds in the dark hidden from public view because they know that they wouldn't hold up to scrutiny.
Congratulation on your escape.

Why Is The Watchtower Liquidating Itself?
by metatron inin 2009, they reported 118 branches.
in 2011, they reported 98 branches.
a net loss of 20 branches in 2 years.. they are selling off kingdom halls, here and there - sometimes packing several congregations into one hall where one per building was the rule.not compassionate where weather or other traveling factors could injure publishers..... and they're selling off some assembly halls, too.. brooklyn et al is being sold - and you already know about all the many cutbacks, layoffs and the downsizing of magazines.. why?.

Funny you should mention that Zeroday. I usually go out for breakast by myself on the days my wife goes to her assemblies. I'm at the Gypsy Den in Santa Ana having breakast right now and two women just walked up and peeked in the window. Right way I could see that they were JWs in service. In one of there bags I could see a magazine or large tract sticking out that read in huge letters " ARMAGEDDON". There still out there counting time and trying to scare others into there miserable lifestlye. You have to feel for them.

Life Is Short
by mrsjones5 inin honour of the fact that life is shortwear your white shirts.
get them pressed.. use your good dishes everyday.. shave on weekends.. do not wait for special occasions.. do not tuck your best away in the drawers, in the back of the closet, in your heart.. dont wait for holidays or invitations.. declare that your today is the special occasion.. call instead of emailing.
(it feels so good to connect.).

I like this. Great way to view things.
And I'd add if you're a JW in here sitting on the fence don't waste anymore of your life in the Watchtower. Get out and do something useful and fun with the rest of it.
