I just had a wicked idea :)
by CornerStone ini don't normaly encourage militant behavour but when it comes to the watchtower i somtimes feel like malcoum x, or mabey jerry springer.. what if, durring a district or circuit assembly, someone, ( anyone with the marrockkass ), takes a small tote bag and have an auto-inflating balloon installed inside.
upon pulling the cord, the balloon inflates to the top, ( way top!
), of the audotorium or assembly hall.

Hello All,
I don't normaly encourage militant behavour but when it comes to the watchtower I somtimes feel like Malcoum X, or mabey Jerry Springer.
What if, durring a district or circuit assembly, someone, ( anyone with the marrockkass ), takes a small tote bag and have an auto-inflating balloon installed inside. Upon pulling the cord, the balloon inflates to the top, ( way top! ), of the audotorium or assembly hall.
Written all over in BIG BOLD BLACK LETTERS is:
HAS A JW PEDOPHILE MOLESTED YOU OR YOUR CHILDREN?
GO TO SILENTLAMBS.ORG FOR COUNSEL AND HELP TODAY!Oh, I can just envision the scene now. Nobody but NOBODY has the means of getting the 'offending' message down from it's dizzying hight. Not even a beebee gun around. :) ( Gun = bad you know )
The platform speaker is 'admonishing' fellow JW's NOT TO LOOK UP! Elders roam around taking the names of those who sneak a peak. Harsh words are sure to be exchanged. A video tape to the local news would be great!
What do you guys think?

Bum Fights
by simplesally inomg..... i was watching tv and there is a new video out and its about las vegas bums/homeless people.
these guys go out and pay homeless people to do stupid things like fight with each other, jump into garbage bins, set their hair on fire.
there was even a spoof on the alligator guy who wrestles them (the guy from australia).

Yes, I've heared of it. The 'producers' thought up this idea to help pay for bigger projects they wanted to conduct. But this idea seems to be getting very popular.
I think this idea is sad, and VERY exploitive. Don't get me wrong, I,m not a prude, ( much ), and I enjoy a good laugh, buuuut this is kind of like laughing at the man who just got his hand cut off in the meat grinder.
I say this because I, like many of us, will give a little spare change to street people, from time to time. The majority of them need medication, which they don't get or take, and all are subject to the street scene.
Sometimes I will take time to talk to them. Always shake their hand, dirty or not. They are like older folk or children, the weakest and most exploitive segments of our society. So I'm not too thrilled about the strongest element of our society, rich educated white guys, taking advantadge of and dehumanizing they weakest elements of said society, poor, mentaly and emotionaly damaged homeless people just so they can drop a little extra coin in their pockets.
Well, I'll get off my soapbox now, sorry for ranting.

Elders not careing TR?, NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Why, I remember one el-dork shareing his compassion and concern with me one bookstudy evening by telling me point blank, "We don't care what you think!"
I believe he was speaking for the collective. And since if they did'ent care what I thought, they must not care how I feel. And if they did'ent care how I feel, they must also not give a damm about me as a person. Guess what?, they did'ent. Hang in there.

It better start burning those long kept 'reccords' on the 'friends' or they may find them sitting on some DA's desk along with detailed reccords on how the watchtower abused justice by making 'silent lambs' of child sexual abuse and glossing over the sins of child preadators all to protect the IMAGE of the wretchtower.
I think the bethel drones are going to be up extra long these nights changing the 'depends' on the governing body every time one of them reads the words district attorney and grand jury in the same sentence.

Being conscience of my own mortality. My human weaknesses and fears about NOT-really KNOWING whats on the other side.
I HATE the idea of having to take things on faith. It's not in my blood.
However,
My hope in Jesus Christ gives me the courage to 'look up' despite my fears. It has been my experience that putting faith in Christ untangles the web of fear that grips the human heart.
So I have great fear, but I also have even GREATER hope for the future.

The JWs are the best people myth
by Leander ini'm sure most of you are all aware of the myth that the wts perpetrates.
they boldly make the claim that jehovah's witnesses are the most loving, compassionate and kind people on the face of the earth.
thats a really interesting statement considering some of the things that i have seen.

Sister Y was married to Brother Z. Brother Z is afflicted with a terrible degenerative condition. After some years Sister Y's love for Brother Z begins to fade. He's just NOT what she wanted.
Brother X, Z's BEST friend, visits often to "check up" on Brother Z. You know, to see how he's doing. Brother X has had marrital problems of his own for years.
Anyway, as you probably can conclude, Brother X leaves his wife and "steals" Brother Z's wife from him. X and Y are dissfellowshipped. They do their time on the "outside" but make all meetings, knowing reinstatement is on the way.
Conclusion: Brother X and Sister Y are back "in", married. Their in "good standing" with privilages. New home, many "friends", vacations, money, etc.
Brother Z sits in a wheelchair. 1 or 2 good friends who help out alot. His congregation IGNORES him. They NEVER visit. They don't even go out in service with him. He's a good guy. Never did them wrong. He just happened to make the mistake of being associated with and marrying one of the "best people" on the earth.

Wrong type alternative service
by Yadirf inquoted below is the testimony of an ex-jw (one of the posters here) who faced the draft in the '60s.
notice the form of "alternative service" that he would've been required to do had he been drafted.
not civilian, but as one who would work in a military hospital ... which would be aiding the war effort -- a breach of one's neutrality.. .

Yadrif,
100% proof beyond a shadow of a doubt? No, of course not.
However,
As a witness, in name only, I KNOW the Borg masters consider their OPINNIONS as coming from Jehovah God. They would waste no time in administering sanction or punishment against ANY witness who acted against their collective will! They absolutely DO NOT BELIEVE that a witnesses opinion contrary to theirs on Biblical matters has ANY validity whatsoever.
It is therefore REASONABLE to assume that a witness, (FARKEL), would be PRESSURED to adopt the opinion of the Borg masters, on pain of punishment or sanction, to the EXCLUSION of his own conscience descission.
They had no right to act as his own conscience!
If they were truly Christ-like, they would have developed his conscience to stand on it's own, not threaten it into obedience.
