Elder John Doe-Able to handle anything!

by D8TA in

friends

(start the d8ta ironic, sarcasm machine).

yep...elder john doe, you know him, we all know him.. in my lifetime i would have to say i know about ooooh 30 some odd elders, and a dozen co's and maybe 1, 2, do's.

and ms's...can't even put a count on those.. and i reflect back, and look presently, as to who these people are.. now, i know this isn't every single "elders" story, but from my experience...these are the one's i knew:.

hi tweetie,

i know what you mean about appointing liars.....i just couldn't believe my eyes in my cong..........the appointments were given to complete liars who didn't have any morals.........all they had to do was kiss up.

and then when they sit on a committe meeting making decisions, there was a "infuence there"............they always seemed to come up with a wicked approach, a bent answer for everything.......even when the "truth" was apparent!.......they would come to a completely sick conclusion.

DEAD LAMBS!

by moman in

of course the sexual abouse of children is horrible, but what about the "slaughter of the innocnents" by the borg?.

a child does have the chance to recover from abuse, but not death!.

the watchtower knows that its blood policy is based on misinterpretation of schripture & bad science, yet they allow this insane policy to continue, as more die every day, after all, "jehovaha's people are a happy people!".

hi mo.......

what are you so upset about?..........just cause the gov body claims to be god's mouthpiece and goes around causing their members to die?
like in malawi........where they told them to go ahead and let the brothers and siters be tortured to death over a .25 cent citizenship card?
or just cause they teach members to disobey god by letting themselves and their children die over a blood issue,,,,,,,when blood represents saving lives........not taking lives.

or are you mad about all the members who have been so intimidated into thinking that all the corruption and slander against them is really just "god working out his will".......and so they commit suicide cause they come to the conclusion that god hates them.

now why would you be so upset as to want a class action, just because of stuff like that?

LETTERS TO BOE/DON"T WATCH DATELINE?

by ARoarer in

jw
friends

has anyone seen or heard of any letters going out from headquarters to the body of elders directing them to inform the congregations not to watch dateline?

i was wondering if this is really true or just a rumor.

if it is true, this is terrible that they can actually deny members freedom of press or punishment.

crawdad2

hi roar,

if they do inform the congs not to watch it,,,, it will only serve to make them sooo curious that they will want to watch it......or tape it and watch it later.

i doubt that they will make a specific annoncement about it.
maybe just a general talk about watching apostate programs or literature.........they have to be sly, you know.

"Jehovah's Witness School"

by Jacinta in

i posted my experience on this board and took for granted that some may have never heard of the jw school.

i don't know if they exist in every state (apparently not), but the one i went to is named new world education center.

all of the teachers had to be baptized jws and the principal as well.

i don't remember brook,,,,,,but i remember that last name.....and the steelmans.....

the greys were very nice to me........last i heard he was so upset with certain elders (he was an elder) that he moved away to michigan........so sad that they are still captive.

i'm sure he will experience the same bs in michigan.

how about aaron amador?........remember him?

Wait on Jehovah!

by jerome in

i have just been thinking about the "wait on jehovah doctrine" for a while because of the silentlambs fiasco and a thread started by you know.. i think that the jws have a certain amount of lead way when it comes to this teaching, i.e this wait on jehovah doctrine is not all bad because the bible teaches that you to trust in god and to have faith, which is totally understandable.. the bible further teaches that 'faith can move a mountain' but i dont think that this verse should be necessarily taken too literally because i dont know of anyone who has moved a mountain simply by faith alone.

but thats just me mabe some of you have move literal mountains simply by faith.. i think that scripture mostlikely refers to the problems in life that you have little controll of like can put food on the table, dont have a place to sleep and you just cant see a way out of your troubles so you put them in the hands of god and have faith that the lord will bring you through to see a brighter day.

hi machis,

why would you want to wait on false prophets? matt 24;24.....deut 18:20

do you like listening to them while they pretend to be god's channel?
what makes you think they are god's channel?.......because they boldly claim to be?........haha, false prophets are always haughty and boast alot.

some of the really haughty ones start organizations........then they claim that's evidence that they are god's channel.........all the while nothing they ever said stands the test of time........so they keep modifying it to avoid having to admit they are lost.

hmmmm......the blind leading the blind......naaa.......more like snakes.......ya.....the pharisee kind.

hi jacinta,

i had friends who had their children in that jw school in phoenix......it was a very messed up school......(around 1982-86)

they had alot of problems with the teachers (no teaching skills).

also the transportation was a big issue, and the cost of everything.

as i recall, the school had so many problems it was shut down.

i didn't read your original post, as i can't seem to navigate this board very well.............anyway, i probably know some of your friends.
