  Remember the two elderly sisters?

  about a month ago i posted what had happened to two elderly sisters who were reprimanded by a couple of elders for crying because the jw broadcasting was going to be stopped at the kingdom hall and it was up to each publisher to learn how to use the internet.

  if you recall the sisters got together with my mom and talked about it and it resulted in all of them declining to make meals for the pioneers.

  here is the link.

  Just remember time is on your side, take a deep breath and proceed.

  There are good people inside the organization and there are good people outside

  There are bad people inside the organization and there are bad people outside

  Only the religion makes good people do bad things

  take care of yourself

  Don't get baptized.

  you have time on your side to work this all out. The most important thing is not to commit to anything that will in effect imprison you.

  Start with not making any decisions such as this, start doing more and more research, try to keep your cool and maintain peace, do lots of research and make careful decisions.

  this is what i found in the transcript related to the date august 14 2015 (royal comision of australia):.

  18 q. and if they don't actively disassociate, then they 19 will be disfellowshipped as apostate?

  20 a. no, an apostate is someone who actively goes against 21 what the bible teaches.. this is a half true.

  god announces plans to slowly wean humans off religion.

  the heavenssaying that the various belief systems had a good run over the last few millennia but that it was probably time for humans to get by on their own, the lord our god, he who is seen and unseen, proclaimed monday that he would begin slowly weaning humanity off religion.

  religion was definitely helpful for humans when they first started out, but now it seems like its pretty much served its purposetime to take the training wheels off, said god, who argued that while the transition from religion might be difficult for a large segment of the population, ultimately humankind would be better off without it in the long run.

  God Announces Plans To Slowly Wean Humans Off Religion

  NEWS IN BRIEFAugust 17, 2015

  VOL 51 ISSUE 33 News · Religion · God

  THE HEAVENS—Saying that the various belief systems had a “good run” over the last few millennia but that it was probably time for humans to get by on their own, the Lord Our God, He Who Is Seen And Unseen, proclaimed Monday that He would begin slowly weaning humanity off religion. “Religion was definitely helpful for humans when they first started out, but now it seems like it’s pretty much served its purpose—time to take the training wheels off,” said God, who argued that while the transition from religion might be difficult for a large segment of the population, ultimately humankind would be better off without it in the long run. “It’s not like I’m going to get rid of religion all in one go or anything; I’ll wind it down gradually over the next 500 years or so. Really, when you take a good look at it, the negatives are starting to outweigh the positives anyway.” At press time, God was implementing the first stage of His plan by effecting the opposite outcome of every prayer He received.a
