I could ask my wife lol.

please pardon if this a repeated topic.
i have had virtually no contact with any witnesses beside my mother for the past few years.
she watches tv constantly and claims she has never seen anything on the watchtower abuse cases.
Showed my wife. She didn't seem phased as expected.
30 minutes and a km article of 13 paragraphs to consider how the field service group should be 5 mins brief!.
how ironic!.
(find this in the kingdum misery for march).
I feel like because I am mentally out the length and redundancy of these parts is unbearable.
but then sometimes I start to sense its not just me. My wife seems bored. And the person giving the part seems bored.
Have you ever been walking around a city with someone who drags there feet and barely moves? It's more exhausting than actually walking faster. This is how I feel about these parts. Dragging out to fill time. Mind numbing.
Like having a paragraph in the watchtower about hitting your wife. OK granted there may be cultures somewhere in the world that is not frowned upon. But I try to not live in those places. Clearly that is Grossly despicable. Why are people commenting on it for 5 minutes!? it's wrong. Not because the watchtower says it is, because it just is. And I think 100% of the hall I am in already is well aware. Its not nulite. Of course it's the whole watchtower article and the km parts. I feel more than ever they are stretching a 5 minute talk to we'll beyond its tolerance level. Taking simple information and drawing it out to be filler.
yes, today is the forum's 15th birthday!.
i never thought for one moment that it would survive this long or have so many people post so many great subjects over the years.. it is still humbling when i get pm's or emails from people expressing how the site has helped them and of course thanks goes to all the posters who have shared their experiences and make helpful and supportive comments to others who are in the sometimes difficult process of learning the real truth about 'the truth'.. the site has gone through several different incarnations over the last 15 years running on different platforms, different databases and different hosts but we've been able to keep all the old topics.
the current site is still being developed and i'm hoping to push another major upgrade soon.. i also may have some other news to share soon about the future of the site so stay posted.. until then, here's the the next 15 years!
happy birthday
richard white was mentally unstable.
apparently he went off the rails and attacked the tsa at the n. orleans airport.
they shot him to stop him chasing down people trying to hack them with his machete.

"apostates capitalize on errors or seeming mistakes made by brothers who take the lead.
our safety lies in avoiding apostate propaganda as though it were poison, which in fact it is.".
I mentioned something along these lines with my wife the other day. That we make never ending concessions for @$$hole elders, GB, and so on in this Org because they are after all imperfect men... but you know what, if you are not a witness, if you are on the fringe or fading, if you are disfellowshipped or anything other there are no f%$#ing concessions for you.
They are suppose to be on par with god's decisions, when they make "mistakes" then we give them a pardon. It's a paradox witnesses cult minds are not able to think out of.
i learned this past week that my wife is now awake.
i just shared the pbs newshour segment with her with no comment other than something along the lines of, "jw story on pbs.".
she is furious at the arrogance of these men.. thats what happens when you get a momma angry!.

in a recent thread someone mentioned that the wtbts uses mind control techniques.
do you think this is a conscious ploy?
if it is it would mean that the leaders of my religion (i am still an active jw) set out consciously to control people.
watch this. I don't believe most are concious to it. But unaware. Products of an existing system. Like disfellowshipping. Most jw would never consider it emotional manipulation outright but also not hesitate using it for just that.

18 you are to make two cherubs of gold; you will make them of hammered work on the two ends of the cover.+ 19 make the cherubs on the two ends, one cherub on each end of the cover.
20 the cherubs are to spread out their two wings upward, overshadowing the cover with their wings,+ and they will face each other.
