  The issue of the world ending in 1975 brings to mind THE most embarrassing memory of my time in the borg apart from the public reproof and df'ing of course.

  I was in my first year of high school and you know what teenagers are like, they just love a target.

  Welllll..... my dear dear father - god bless him - made a huge sign up to sit on the top of the '57 chevie he owned, which I might add was the only one of its kind in our SMALL home town, and the sign read

  "WHO IS GOING TO CONQUER THE WORLD IN 1975"

  with some blurb after it, can't remember what the rest of it was. Well do you think we didn't cop s&%@t ? Damn right we did. He drove around with that ridiculous sign for almost a year LOL.

  I can laugh about it now but I remember wanting armaggedon to come sooner or the earth to open and swallow me up whichever came sooner. Did anyone elses olds do this?

  Thanks for the memories Mulan.

  Marrying a cousin

  by A_Revelation in

  1. social
  2. family

  i was wondering if this is seen as wrong in the eyes of jehovah and wether it would produce unusual children.

  i was just interested.

  also wether it is legal in britian (where i live).

  I had an ex brother in law (expat brit, not the one we all know from this forum LOL) that fell in love with his first cousin in the UK and they were married over there. Since they were allowed to be married it seems it is not against the law.

  They have since had a son and a daughter who are now in their teens and are very bright. Nothing wrong with them at all and I know that for sure as I have met them both fairly recently.

  I must say though that I was a bit perturbed when I found out that they were to wed but since they did all the tests to establish they were ok to have kids it made me feel a bit easier about it. I don't think it is illegal in Oz either.

  Subliminal Messages In WT Pictures???

  by Sentinel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  please don't be turned off because this is rather creepy and has "reference" only to the occult.

  because the information was found on a website that i got from a post on this forum.

  i was curious.

  This is really interesting stuff and I have seen some examples of those subliminal pictures.

  Here is something else to ponder.

  I have read on this forum that only canned music is allowed at the meetings now and that got me to wondering why.

  Could it be that there are subliminal messages in thier canned music as well? I myself have a couple of subliminal tapes and cds and have heard of subliminals being played in shopping centres to get people to buy. Has anyone thought of that aspect also? I wouldn't put it past them because they are so evil in so many other ways.

  Rainbow covenant... a fairy tale?

  by LyinEyes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  yesterday evening , after a little rain storm there was the most beautiful rainbow in the sky.

  it reminded me of the promise that god gave that the earth would never be destroyed again by flood.

  so every times it rains , all over the world , you will usually see a rainbow.

  Hi Lyin',pomegranate, willy_think and any otheras reading this,

  I had no faith in the bible and still don't so with that in mind here is a little something that may help you to work out what is fairytale and what is not.

  It was advice given to me by one of the posters on this board and I am so glad they did as it confirmed a lot of what I was thinking.

  Go to the Google search engine and type in bible+astrology+zodiac and settle down for a good read. It will show you why Russell and co did/do not want anyone reading anything that is not from them. One really good site to get your teeth into is on page six and it has esoteric as the first word of the heading.

  It even mentions Jehovah in relation to mythology. GASP!!!!

  Enjoy

  Don't buy into Ray Franz's stumbling block.

  by Bleep in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  ray franz wrote, "i was baptized a jehovah's witness in 1972 (three years before armageddon came) and served as an elder for a good number of years.

  all i can say is put franz book to the test for yourself.

  1)he is making money off a dumb idea.. 2)he was expecting 1975 to be armageddon.

  I wish you the best of luck Bill. Hang in there, you've got them looking like real ponces to the media and hence to the public. Don't let the bastards get you down. You are doing the world a huge service and I for one am grateful as I am one of those silent lambs who is not going to remain silent for much longer.

  Best Regards

  I also got this e-mail from this Mario whoever he is and I didn't even open it, just hit delete. I am not stupid and when someone offers me the opportunity to make $20,000 in a week I smell a rat.

  Maybe this will give this person the message not to even bother to send me anymore of this crap. I am very suspicious by nature and will not open anything that comes from someone I have never heard of. Saves time and money with the virus aspect even tho I have an anti virus program installed. I have heard of some virus or other that can actually attack the anti virus program and wipe it out so wether it is true or not I am taking no chances.

  What "SIN" do elders respond to fastest?

  by Dismembered in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  .

  maybe it's just me but, it seem like "elders" respond extremely quickly to "sexual misconduct" as long as it does not involve their own family members.

  true or false?

  Cath

  Personally I think they are all TOSSERS so they get thier kicks out of listening to sexual misconduct stories and THAT is why they are so fast to respond to the "sins of the flesh". A'holes!

  Actually I did generalise but I knew not one decent elder so if anyone is offended at my calling them ALL tossers take your complaints elsewhere thanks.

  Jan,

  I thank you for your e-mail regarding this and I hope you have had more responses privately than you have had here.

  Yes I am a victim of JW abuse and yes I do want this to stop for the sake of the little children caught up in this cult through no fault of thier own as I was.

  Yes I am scared stiff but I want to let others know here in Oz that they are not alone and that there IS something they can do. Perhaps just knowing that there are others out here will help some to make the decision to speak to the media, so it is with this in mind that I have replied to your post even though I have already told you in reply to your e-mail that I would be willing to speak out.

  Any who doubt me may read my story from this link http://www.geocities.com/freepeace2000/Cath.htm

  As others have said "RUN WATCHTOWER RUN". Lets stop this evil beast that is the WBTS.
