they have taken so much from my family in the form of money and most importantly time, that i have developed a hatred for them.. as i cut the grass, burning gasoline and contaminating the air, i realized that the watchtower is loosing ground.

fortunatly for my family my mother married a worldly man.

IF I have kids, they will not follow the wacktower lies either.

I applaude you.

Would you like to send your love back to the xxxxx congregation?

by Bonnie_Clyde in

.

almost every time we have a visiting speaker the chairman will ask us afterwards if we would like to send our "love" back to the speaker's congregation.

everyone claps loudly.. has anyone ever heard of that "love" being delivered to the congregation?

Highlander

Can't you just feel the love?

On a side note, I never did receive this 'love' from other congregations.

how do you think the gb members along with the cos and elders should be punished for the way they emotionally and spiritually abuse and hurt the flocks of the naive r&f?

Make them read the wacktower and asleep magazines non-stop 24 hrs a day.

31. is there a dress code?

the society suggests a dress code be set up for the trip because everywhere we stop we give a witness.

I've never worn a badge, never will. Only my first day in grade school did I wear a name tag and quite frankly that's the only appropriate place for one.

If we're not brave enough to have the courtesy of simply asking someone what their name is then we should all stay home and live as hermits.

I guess most witnesses are so socially stunted they need name tags to make proper introductions. it's just insane if you ask me.

Best ways to disrupt meetings, assemblies, etc...

shine a laser pen on the outline given by the speaker at an assembly.. take notes in finger paint.. at sensitive moments, blow your nose raucously.

apologize for your sinus condition.. wear a disposable paper face mask.

tell the brothers: hey, you don't want to catch what i've got!.

Attend the convention wearing a trench coat. Upon sitting down, remove the trench coat to reveal(gasp) "all your glory"

Question, what would the bouncers(elders) do about a naked convention attendee? With all the 'hang-ups' about sex, I just can't see them trying to remove this person for

fear of touching this person in 'all his glory'

JW: "Well, Brother Snorefest, that certainly was a deep talk you gave."

Translation: What in the #$%^& were you talking about?

I can't wait to use that line when the opportunity presents itself. hmm,, wonder how well I'll be received with that type of remark?

OK believers, time to put up or shut up...

by Gregor in

apparently, a large percentage of xjw's who post on this site have embraced some other form of god/jesus belief to replace the wt doctrine.

most of them fall into the "i accept the lord jesus christ as my personal savior" class.

they are still extremely attached to the old "forgiveness of sin through the shed blood of jc" line.

After all, you say we have no proof of what we believe but for you non-believers, you have no proof either!

Yep, my thoughts exactly. To the often asked question of how did life originate. Simply put, I don't know and neither do you. Quite frankly I don't believe we will ever know for certain.
