a couple of saturdays ago i and my girlfriend (who happens to be baptised into the greek orthodox religion, but practises greek catholic...no, she's not greek) were on the virgin train from glasgow to london.. we had reserved seats on the quiet zone of the train, because y'know, a 5 hour train journey shouldn't be sullied by mobile phones ringing and noisy conversations.. somewhere around the lake district a very tall woman sits at the table across the carriage from us, a table already occupied by a very chatty, bearded man in his late 50s, along with his wife.
this man was directing people where to stow their luggage and asking random travellers questions about their journey to the point where i sent my girlfriend a text message (easier to communicate that way without others overhearing us) asking if he was the "train boss".. he struck up a conversation with this new passenger about his travels, but i wasn't really paying attention as i was watching a movie on my ipad, wearing noise cancelling headphones.
after a little while i noticed they'd stopped chatting and the woman was now reading.
A fellow Scott? I think I would either move (although this is easier said than done with Virgin Trains reservation policy) or better still actually say to the JW woman I DA'd myself due to the watchtower's question nothing doctrine. What would she do with a so called apostate sitting a couple of seats away from her???
Now that would be worth watching lol.
the elders did not stay long and it wasn`t an official visit sanctioned by the boe/cobe because they were not from my (ex)congregation.
we talked a little about my situation and the fact that my wife does not talk to me and how non-scriptural her behavior is.. then they mentioned the rc and how it was the best convention for the last 20 years.
one thing they did mention was the fact that the borg was clearly preparing them for persecution.
The so called persecution will be a direct result of the watchtower and it's ramping up of hate speech that is currently happening.
The watchtower are just about throwing everybody under the bus at the moment, I have a sneaky suspicion that the watchtower could be making waves deliberately.

a visit to my ophthalmologist yesterday.
he told me i have 22-20 vision, so .
i ask if i have 20-20 vision why do i need glasses to read the news paper.. he laugh and told me most people need glasses after they reach 45 years of age,.
i don't know if i have shared this with everyone, but there seems to be a new theocratic term, at least in my circuit.. the term is "final push.
" wtf does it mean?
well, an eldub said that the gb are "all in" with warwick and they might spend all their money on the project.
how many times have elders read their bible in its entirety?
these are the leaders that give counsel to married couples, to teenagers, to single girls and single boys on everything from marriage, education, sex, association, dress, and recreation..
how well do they know their bible?
i really need to change my username.
could someone assist with this please
its inevitable that at some point in time, people will look back and see that the exjw community was right about the watchtower organization and the bible..
i have some friends who are catholic, protestant, and some who dont associate with any religion but believe jesus will come in their lifetime.
we are such a small minority compared to christians that we are viewed as ignorant when it comes to religious matters.
I believe it is already in motion. You only have to read between the lines regarding the talks to see the watchtower are preparing for their own get out clause.
Something that struck me is the current watchtower on the great tribulation. The governing body will suddenly dissapear. Yeah, through the back door and whisked away to spend the rest of their lives in luxery - top secret of course! Its happening now!
it's been levelled that the talks you can find on youtube are fake and that they are not the words of morris, such as the one below.
it'd be really helpful to me if there was a way to verify and prove that they are his talks.. cab anyone help?.

Most Tony Morris videos are in fact him speaking, and yes he is bat shit crazy. As steve2 said, some have been embellished with silly immature songs.
There are raw unedited Tony Morris videos on YouTube if you search deep enough.
