i was talking with a friend of mine who knows a few people in the home department at bethel.

apparently, prince was, as i noted in the title, on the board of directors.

he apparently was sort of a silent partner or advisor in the whole thing.

If it's on the internet, it has to be true, so I completely believe all of this!
I heard he paid a lot of money to the Watchtower so Anthony Morris would stop chastising him for his tight pants. I have my sources.

In congregations of Jehovah’s people today, it is very unlikely that we would be treated unjustly
Haha! I think they mistakenly put the "un" in front of likely!

george cook, omg, george f'ing cook, whattttt!.

caption: elder george cook (right), one of the nine elders of the small 90-person congregation, said prince regularly ‘witnessed’ alone in the community and in groups.

he was very detail oriented and very eccentric.

I'm sure "Brother Nelson" took care of his lack of retirement fund situation. It's a wonder not all of the old JWs casted into retirement didn't flock there.

so today was the one day assembly or whatever it's called now.

fun times.😳.

use resources wisely:.
Wild_Thing

My family went to their one day assembly, too. I wonder if you were at the same one.
A few questions for you ...
1. Was there any mention of shunning family members?
2. They really said to watch no superhuman shows???? My God! The JWs I know in this area go to Comicon every time it comes to town, including my sister's family. Her elder husband's favorite shirt is his Superman shirt.
3. Anything about education?
Thanks in advance!

I would be okay if he stole the spotlight from Prince, like he did Taylor Swift. Let them switch places!

i'm sure prince has already been talked about to death on this site, but a jw family member just liked a video posted by a jw group on facebook that is an interview of prince about his conversion to jw.

it's the comments made by jws that this post is about.. prince was a great artist!

and the world has lost a musical genius in my opinion, but he lost me after he converted.

I'm sure Prince has already been talked about to death on this site, but a JW family member just liked a video posted by a JW group on Facebook that is an interview of Prince about his conversion to JW. I'm sure everyone has seen it. It's the comments made by JWs that this post is about.
Prince was a great artist! And the world has lost a musical genius in my opinion, but he lost me after he converted. He has always been weird, but after converting, he just became a different shade of weird and I didn't like his new music ... post JW. I still have his old albums on my iPod though and love them! This is not anything against him as a musician.
But reading the JW comments are making me feel a little nauseated. They are talking about how they can't wait for him to be resurrected and how they will see him in "just a little while" in paradise. And they are all so excited to finally meet him when he is resurrected! I am pretty sure they are hoping for a post paradise concert or something.
And then there's this gem:
Food for thought my spiritual family. We have to be careful with what words we use when someone dies. Unbelievers get confused when the word passed away is used thinking we believe in after life.
Yes, yes ... that has always confused me, the whole "passed away" phrase ... not! I couldn't read anymore. If you need a good purging of your dinner: https://www.facebook.com/Jehovahs-Witnesses-Examiner-241479099370852/?fref=nf
