  Wierd District Convention experience Pioneer/Elder claim disapointment he's still not a C.O???

  by Witness 007 in

  melbourne australia district convention last saturday this jackass pioneer/elder gets on stage and relates how he and his wife have served where the need is great in many congs hoping for the "privledge" of being a c.o couple....he expressed "disapointment and discouragement" when he was not appointed....he moved to a new assignment in the chinese cong.. the speaker thanks him for his "honesty" but i was thinking what are his motives for serving his brothers?

  is this a good example for pioneering?

  must be a reason his ambition...... sorry i mean, goals could not be reached.

  I knew an uber witness couple (pioneers/elder) in our congregation who were absolutely dying to become co/co's wife. The amount of arse licking & sphincter fondling that they carried out was cringeworthy to watch. To my knowledge they still never attained their ambition. The thing with them was that they loved to be treated like royalty. They too had travelled between local 'need greater' congregations for years.

  I can still recall this peice of shit bragging about how he and his wife had attained however many years of continuous pioneer service since they left school. Honestly it was enough to give you the boak.

  A horrible couple who looked down on & judged many, many people in our circuit.

  They perfectly summed up why I didn't want to be part of their lame shit little religion.

  Horrible people.

  Besty Unplugged - My Life Story Part II

  <<part i. i dont recall discussing the great disappointment of 1975 as a family.

  i was only 5 and my older and wiser brother was 8. what i can remember was the muted sense of excitement we both felt in 1977. shortly after elvis died my dad announced we were moving off the island back to the scottish mainland.

  i didnt connect the death of elvis with our big move, and rightly so.

  2009 Drama Synopsis and Comments

  by jabberwock in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this year's drama was based on the parable of the prodigal son.

  the theme was "your brother was dead and came to life".

  as some have probably heard, it is a modern day story based on that parable, so there are no fancy costumes or fake beards.. .

  Bad things happen to everyone who leaves the truth.

  How utterly predictable, yet sad that people have such a low opinion of worldly people. I actually had to leave the truth because I felt that I was surrounded by arseholes yet when I went out and made friends with worldly people I felt so much more refreshed & happy.

  I had one of those discussions this weekend - Am I getting anywhere?

  last week during bible highlights, a sister commented on leviticus 19:28 about not having a tattoo.

  i also commented, saying that we are not under the law, but the principle should be taken into consideration.. a sister i don't speak with very often called me.

  she is in the same congregation as some of my family.

  They go round and round in circles and more or less say the same thing - whatever the WT says is what we should do & if you don't then you're fucked.

  Welcome.

  Never mind what Jesus would have done. You'll never be that perfect so give yourself a break huh?

  Jehovah's Witnesses who shun others are pure filth IMO. I just don't see any humanity in people acting this way.

  At one time my neighbour JW elder smart ass decided he wouldn't speak to me (even though I'm not d/f'd). Fair enough I thought. Lets see how he likes it. So I shunned him back.

  A "My Book of Bible Stories" tale that I've always hated

  by JimmyPage in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've always hated story #53: "jepthah's promise".

  i always felt sorry for the daughter who had to spend the rest of her days at the tabernacle because her father made a numb-nuts promise to god.

  who did he think he was, making promises for other people?

  The lady clinging to the rock with the baby in her arms. She's about to be killed by the rising water.

  Classic JW child mindfuck.

  Jehovah's Witnesses & their cynical lust for negativity

  by jambon1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for me this is one of the most hideous things about the jw's.. it's like they are willing on the next world disaster.

  they are gleeful if anyone that they know comes into some sort of trouble if they are not following 'bible standards'.

  they simply aren't interested in anything good.

  Yes, in my own case I started to feel utterly depressed due to feeding my mind on their doctrines & viwpoints. I wanted to just kill myself. Like nothing was worth living for.

  Then I gradually began to re-associate with worldly people who were lovely & refreshing to be around. It made me sit up & take note of all the good things that are happening in the world.

  Also, when I went to meetings I was getting a hard time from people despite being a m/s & trying very hard to live a good JW life.

  When I associated with worldly people, I was being made to feel good about myself & all the positive aspects of my life.

  I began to realise that it was time to get off the WTS 'nothings-ever-good-enough' merrygoround.

  Life is good. You only get one chance. Live it!
