They are not supposed to have friends out of the religion and spouses who fall out of grace are not counted are "real" spouses since they will not be re-incarnated or survive after Armageddon

1975 True Believers -- 201 (part two)
by JAVA inin "1975 believer -- 101" at http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/88161/1.ashx we discussed how a jehovah's witness with a conviction is a hard person to change despite overwhelming evidence that the conviction is wrong.
this new thread introduces conditions under which we can expect to observe increased fervor following the disconfirmation of a belief.
there are five conditions the true believer class needs to increase activity, even when others within the movement decrease involvement.

I feel the need to speak personally to Brother Johnson.
I bet I know where he will be tomorrow!
Anyone know what time the public talk starts in his congo?
When the Brother who answers asks why I need to speak with him I will say Ï want to congratulate him on his starring role."

Told to shun DF ones in august 2002 KM
by purplesofa inin the vidoe of the elder that went on how the word "shun" had a bad stereotype and said that jw's don't use that word............it baffled me that so many of us have heard that word used in regards to disfellowshipping and this man that had been a po for 30 years denied it.. in the august 2002 km there is an article.
display christian loyalty when a relative is disfellowshipped.
in all fairness i would like to post the whole article but can't type it all out right now........but will when it is not so late....... on page 4 par 12 it reads.......... benefits of being loyal to jehovah: .

WTF is a "FLESHLY SISTER?"
Anyone who can speak that term in front of a gathering without laughing because of the obvious pompous and self-righteous hypocrisy involved in inventing and inserting a word like "fleshly sister" to mean, duh, sister deserves to be an Elder at least.
These Boobs make me laugh with their stupid crap.

I already asked about S.Twins and twins, triplets, etc. en vitro. Both scenarios involve the direct sharing of blood components. It was not until fairly recently that science proved that multiple pregnancies share circulating blood. The WT chooses not to notice this in their review of the blood issue.
The answer I got took three weeks to get and supposedly went all the way up the line. It came back as "Jehovah works miracles." I was less than impressed but everyone else is very satisfied. Really the question raises doubts about the Bible in my mind because as we know, "God never makes mistakes" and you can't force abstention upon a soul who is unable to accept or deny the concept which would pretty much describe the conditions unborn babies operate under.
It would be great if all of you would ask WT to ask why not all of God's creations have to abide by the blood ban.

Zealous JW`s having children......
by jambon1 inwhen we had our children we planned them.
we made this known to any in the cong who asked if we 'got a surprise' when we found out we were pregnant.
we basically said, 'no, we wanted children'.

If the GB really felt that "the end were near", they would be making plans.
Buying 6 Billion body bags would be on the list, condo conversions probably not.

What do you make of the Daniel Book
by lost_light06 ini went to my first bookstudy in at least 4 weeks the other night.
we were studying the daniel book.
this particular study had to do with the king of the north and the king of the south in our modern day.

That crap pile is one of the reasons I stopped going to book study.
I almost broke out laughing when they began to SERIOUSLY discuss the statue near the beginning.

Have any been attacked while in FS?
by Check_Your_Premises inhow many times were you attacked physically?.
how many times were you attacked verbally?.
how long were you a jw?.
-
MinisterAmos
Door partners verbally assaulted twice in three years no physical assaults (I'm pretty imposing physically.) Don't worry about your kids because Jah will protect them just like the Elders promise! At least that's what they told me when I mentioned that switching us from a congregation 15 minutes from our home to one an hour away, across a literal sea of titty bars, along the deadliest, most Red-Neck per sq mile, beer swilling section of highway in the country with a School that lasts till 9:30PM on Friday drunk night, might not be in our best interests.
Actually they could give a rats ass about your best interests. Everything is geared to putting feet on doorsteps, or as we say in "the world" putting asses in the seats. There are many examples and it really doesn't take a lot to see them.

The thing here is that even though the ritual might change, the R/F is going to keep it up just because the leadership is so weak or the instructions so vague.
That said, the WTBS still finds those who
wastegloriously donate their lives in full'time service as the most spiritual.Ask me about the couple in their 30´s who STILL are unfamiliar with the mechanics of sex after 7 years of marriage, or the 30ish FT Pioneer couple who will have their kids in the ´new system´ even as Brooklyn is planning 20 and 30 year construction projects.
Hope someone goes postal there one day for all the lives these jerks have wasted.
