batata (literally sweet potato)
You must mean "camote"
in the early 80's when i was just a teen, i was out in field circus one day when i overheard our cobe (called president at the time?
) telling another elder that, if armageddon were to come tomorrow, less than 1/3 of the congregation would survive.
this was actually in a bakery as we were just finishing up and they didn't even notice me standing in line as they were too busy drooling over the pastries and talking trash about a ministerial servant who decided not to go to field circus that day for whatever reason.

Jesus Christ not this crap again. I'm not surprised to find a concentration amongst folks associated with the Watchtower, however.

I'm sorry, but you really have to stop pointing out the flaws in JW logic.
the norwegian branch, as well as the swedish one, are now up for sale and the scandinavian headquarters will be located at the present danish bethel.. http://www.oblad.no/nyheter/omradet-i-ytre-enebakk-legges-ut-for-salg-1.7365526.
this news even made it to the national radio news yesterday.. .

Senior housing for the neediest of the Witnesses.
Is there some sort of disconnect that they don't see the obvious?
i saw a fight break out on the platform between an elder and a unbelieving husband who accused the elder of f---ing his wife.
he then threw the lectern on the floor and pushed the elder.
it was cool.......
I attended a convention in Mobile, AL at some indoor sports stadium there. It's an old, poorly designed building and obviously not intended to house people for more than a couple of hours for the following reason...
The bathrooms! They were designed with NO ventilation and no means of circulating the air. Also, the entrance door opens to the main corridor so every time someone walks in they can have a good look inside at the action.
Now everything was going fine until the after lunch break and all the sisters had to take a dump at once. The smell inside must have been suffocating because one of the Bros. decided to prop the bathroom doors open just to get a little ventilation. The problem being that the entrance opened to the main corridor so every Dub coming back from lunch who looked right was treated to the sight of a line of feet and undies peeking out from under the stall doors.
I actually took a pic of the spectacle and showed it to one of the organizers hoping to kind of rub his nose in the shameful way they treat the sisters there but no luck; they still use the facility.
we do well to bear in mind that among the drugs, serums, vaccines, surgical operations, etc., of the medical profession, there is nothing of value save an occasional surgical proceedure.
their so-called "science" grew out of egyptian black magic and has not lost its demonological character.... we shall be in a sad plight when we place the welfare of the race in their hands.

"Air Baths" hehehehe
I know of one elder here in Pensacola who was arrested for L&L for "airbathing" in front of a 9 YO girl. The man should have whipped out his WT and explained what he was doing!
Wait for the civil trial.

If that's the best argument they can find against female genital mutilation, then I'm damned glad to not be a part of their crazy group. "Oh but see?...They are AGAINST it too! (Just not for the same reasons that non-sociopaths are against it)
this'll probably get me disfellowshipped eventually but it's been hella fun!.
so lately every time an opportunity arrises while speaking to other jdubs at the meetings or assemblies or even just overhearing their conversations about new light or new publications, service, anything really i drop little things that pass unoticed by most but make some stop and think for a minute.. for example, after one sunday meeting, a brother came up to me with about 5 other jdubbies to poke fun at me saying, "i thought you said you never sat at the front?!
huh?
