  What's The Point?

  by AllTimeJeff in

  it's been 12 years since i submitted my resignation letter, and stopped playing by their rules.. in a spurt of manic rationality, i blew up the bridge, sky high.

  knowing that the diseased organ would need to be forever removed, away from anything remotely functional in my mind, body, and soul.

  lest i be tempted to return.... so, i left.

  i have a trove of old watchtower literature.

  i know of course, and for example, to keep the three first volumes of the watchtower (bound) and a bunch of other items.

  (and i handle them delicately.).

  When I joined this religion in the 1980's, everyone had a good personal library. In fact the larger your personal library, the more spiritual you were considering. I ended up with an awesome sized library, that was until WT announced that all old books be returned to them or disposed of. Then I was pressured from my JW relatives to dump all these, because every thing we needed was now available electronicly. Most books have now gone, but I have managed to keep a few of the good old ones.

  If that was the case, why didn't they move further away from NY. To be extra safe.

  Has anyone heard if they are safe where they are? That area may have also been hit hard.

  Are not all kingdom halls dedicated? Would a witness allow their child to attend this child care centre?

  Watchtower headquarters should be sending some money back
  

  Will ever happen. They will be busy writing letters reminding all congregations that your yes means yes, so your monthly pledge payments need to be fulfilled. This is what happened to the congregation I am in after it fell short in $$ for 2 consecutive months.

  The convention will be available via stream from JW.org in August where we can all sit in and watch it. No monthly GB broadcast that month. Just another sign that Jehovah is looking after his organization as the end closes in. What wonderful evidence we have that we are in the truth. And all the other promotional propaganda that witnesses convince each other with that I am hearing...
