me and the deemunz

by katiekitten in

i was lucky to have been brought up in the troof, because if i hadnt, i wouldnt have known about the demons and how they are always looking for opportunities to lead us astray by appearing as ghosties, or by making household objects float, or by getting into our house through items bought from car boot sales.. my first memories of the deemunz was quite early, say aged 5 or 6. i used to think they were at the end of the bed, and so i had to sleep with my legs curled up as tightly as possible, so they wouldnt get my toes.

i cant even begin to think what terrible things they were going to do with my piggies, but sure as the apostles i wasnt going to give them a chance.. aged 7 or 8 i knew the deemunz were after me, because i was special.

i was a jehobas witness.

During the CO visit

by JH in

friends

for those familiar with the co schedual, when during the week, does the co discuss with the other elders about inactive ones in the congregation?

or when will the co and his wife be likely to be invited for a meal at some brothers home, or be invited to a bible study with someone?.

starting tuesday through sunday, what's a typical co schedual?

As I remember it, the CO comes on Tuesday. The meeting that night is usually taken up with a session of uninhibited arse kissing followed by huge helpings of platitudes with some back stabbing by the body of elders and the CO for dessert. The following day, after having serviced the wife (missionary position obviously) leaving dirty sheets for the homeowner to sort out, he will then proceed to the field service arrangement, whereupon all those with kids will be frowned upon for being 24 seconds late and having grubby days text books. All shall go out for at least 4 hours whilst he enjoys a round of nibbles back at the house, whilst making notes on the dvd collection of said homeowner. Along to another poor saps home for what can only be described as a 5 course Sunday dinner, for which no thanks will be offered or expected, he will then proceed along with a pioneer or two to some victims home, whereupon he will then harangue that victim into attending a meeting or 10. At the evening pioneer meeting he will castigate the pioneers for not making enough time on the ministry whilst making too much money on the window cleaning round. After all, you only need $40 a week to live on. thats all he gets, the brand new car is a gift from god!! At the following evening meeting, he will enjoy another round of arse kissing, which is much needed, after all, he has been eating rich food all day, and his ringpiece is REALLY itchy. He will then proceed to bollock the congregation for not spending enough money on the kH or giving it to the Society. How can the governing body manage on a mere 4 billion a year? After all, they have overheads!! The days will carry on in much the same vein, the only differences being the table he eats you out of house and home at, and the colour of his tie. His wife will simper and giggle at every inane joke, even though she has heard them all at least 10 000 times before. Its more than her life is worth to not do so. He will then proceed to give a public talk on Sunday, invoking everyone to buy into the gash served up by the WTBTS and implore them for more money. He needs a new car soon, his is really dirty and no one has offered to wash it. After making a couple of promotions within the congregation, publishers to servants and servants to elders, all depending on how well they manipulated his ring he will then say goodbye, only pausing to comment on how the garden of the KH needs more high maintenance plants, not those unsightly flags and tarmac. Rubbing his hands in anticipation, he then proceeds to his flat for a couple of days, no doubt concentrating on rogering his doormat of a wife whilst thinking about sister Jones and her heaving bosom!! That answer it for you?

what with the job i do and possibly my internal make-up, its really quite rare that i see something that i find moving.

however, seeing bob geldof bring on the beautiful african lady who had 10 minutes left to live 20 years ago, who has now finished her agricultural degree in africa and has grown up due to live aid's efforts, i felt i had to post something here...

so if you haven't been to www.live8live.com and signed the electronic petition then stop whatever you're doing and do it now!!!!!

I like a lot of people am not too sure how this will change things for the better, but if it makes one person live a better life then who are we to complain about that? So spend a minute of your time to add your name to the long list of people and lets get some pressure applied worldwide to G8. Then lets hope they take note of it.......

Bad examples of intelligent design?

by gringojj in

i am trying to think about examples of animals that would be bad for the intelligent design theory.

i like to use the ostrich because it has wings but doesnt fly.

Pink Floyd Song. Wish You Were Here. '...we're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year...' For all we know, we're part of some kids lab experiment and right now he's looking in his insectarium pissing himself laughing at all of us wasting our time wondering whether there is a god or not. Fuck it!! Live a little. Stop bothering about the existence of a god or not, get out there, meet people, have a drink or ten, jump out of a plane or climb a mountain. Doesn't matter. JUST STOP BOTHERING ABOUT GOD. HE DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOU IF HE EXISTS. God is more likely to be some alien that landed here thousands of years ago and decided earth wasn't worth eating.....

True, maybe not in the case of the dodo, but who killed off dinosaurs? Cavemen??

S8... God that takes me back. In fact, I'm gonna have to do some serious drinking now to stop any potential nightmares over that one. And what about the form for saying how good/bad/shite your talk was? what was that one called?
