Jeff T, they are looking to vacate. The money is NOTHING to them, they are after bragging rights-they want to prevail and squash her lawsuit into smithereens and then be in the moral highground. Although in truth, they lost that long long ago. -

I was in high school. Two years after I was DAd, I was on homecoming float with the little girl I babysat, who was 2. I was on the committee and had agreed to babysit since her folks were desperate. Soon afterwards, I found that I left so I could live a disoloute lifestyle. . .and had a little girl. I was a virgin when the rumor started. My mom heard it at the hall. I think it softened her towards me since she knew it was false. They were pretty ugly about it. Years later a JW saw me with my son and made comments about his big sister. He might still wonder about that! -

Is Lett a real person or some kind of poorly made robot? Nothing else online has such a dysfunctional synchronization unless they are dubbing in a a different language family. Like Japanese or Swahili. The cartoons look more like real people talking than any Lett video has. So is he real or is he a virtual JW? -

40 years on - and still in Damage Control mode!
by Bungi Bill inearlier this morning, i posted off to the the institute of engineers an application for membership as an "engineering associate":.
- today being just over 40 years since the congregation's retards elders made me abandon my apprenticeship.. (in this part of the world, the pre-1975 hype was taken to that level.
not being content to prevent young persons attending university, they went one step further and treated with hostility any youngster who would "tie up five years of their lives" by entering into an apprenticeship.

Hope y'all in Texas are doing OK !
by Simon insome terrible flooding happening there.. i never realized that texas was so prone to serious floods and flash-floods because of the geography and weather.
it tops the stats nearly every year for flood fatalities.. stay safe, stay dry if you can and don't take any chances.
water is unbelievably powerful - whatever vehicle you have it can sweep it away like a twig.

I have friends and family all over Houston. I should be there now, but glad I'm not, honestly. My neighborhood has lots of flooding but my home is ok. No one I know is harmed, thankfully. Others are, tragically. -

A Tug on the Leash (The Authority Which the GB Wields Over the R&F)
by Oubliette inrecently, several comments have been made in various threads in reference to some of the recent changes to a few of the rules by which jehovah's witnesses must live their lives in unquestioning compliance.
the assertion has been made that these rules are a "relaxing" of previous restrictions.
the suggestion has been made that this somehow indicates a corresponding relaxing or loosening or lessening of the authority which the governing body (gb) holds over the rank and file (r&f) members of the religion.

Damned if they do, Damned if they don't
by FusionTheism ini see an attitude among some people here which is not very helpful.
i can understand it, but still, it's not constructive or helpful.. if you condemn the society for not changing, but then you also condemn them when they do change in a positive way, what incentive or motive does that provide for the people at the society to ever want to change for the better?.
also, what does that attitude look like to current witnesses who are having doubts?.

The WT doesn't change for the better. It changes when it has to. Technology and society made the internet go from being a tool of the devil to see blessing from Jehovah. Some unknown JWs medical condition transformed fractions of blood to a conscience issue instead of a disfelloshippin issue and more remarkably, made those fractions to not really BE blood. Similarly, other formerly forbidden blood related surgical procedures are now allowed. Nothing about scripture or blood actually changed.
Overlapping generations-time is biting them on the butt. This trend will continue.
Types and anti - types are likewise having time and history demonstrate that the teachings were false and self serving. To wipe that out with one fell swoop was self serving as they now get to dismiss so much of the nonsense that is now proven to be nonsense.
It's true,the WTBTS has shown no remorse or repentance for their words and actions. You would have been DFd for any of the false teachings had they been yours, b u t also DFd if you would have asked tough questions about the original teachings or the changes.

The worst they can do-isn't much. Mild disappointment-well, as JWs who left (in one fashion or another) mild disappointment is easy, comparitively.
I hope your dad doesn't stop talking to you, but if he does, it says something, doesn't it?

To the OP, I agree with your suspicion. I will also say that aging isn't for sissies. Take some quiet time, meditate and strategize. No rush. Much love and support here, so take heart.
