  It looks to me like Justmeok2 is involved in 'spiritual catfishing'.

  chapter 13. they get my heart, soul and my body.

  saturday morning i was up at 6:30. it was fun trying to share small bathroom with seven other guys, all trying to get ready in 20 minutes.

  i threw some cloths on and headed to first “morning worship.” gilbert said i could sit on his table since there was an extra space there.

  Keith, I remember my first breakfast. Boy did I fu@k up! I left a small amount of food on my plate that I didn't feel like eating. The table head chewed me a new a$$hole and acted like I was stealing $1,000,000.00 from Jehovah himself and his organization.

  2017 Convention Recording: JWs Applaud 10yo Girl For Shunning Her Own Sister

  by pale.emperor in

  this poor girl was baptized at 9yo.

  .

  she isnt old enough to buy alcohol, to vote, to decide her own medical treatment, to buy a pet, to travel alone... yet she was deemed old enough to dedicate her life to a religion that will cut her off from her family if she ever leaves.. here she is applauded for shunning her own sister who tried to keep in contact with her after waking up.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yzgnfda8ki.

  I feel very sorry for this little girl. Unbeknownst to her, she is being manipulated by the Circuit Overseer, the Elders in her congregation and her Watchtower trained parents or parent to be an innocent 'public relations face', espousing the EVIL pontifications of the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses. She is having her 'moment in the sun' or '15 minutes of fame' now. Unless she becomes a Pioneer in the next few years and later marries someone with a position in the organization, she will be relegated to the unknown masses of ignored single sisters waiting patiently for Jehovah to 'save' her from the life she was 'unknowingly' forced into.

  "How old would Br. Franz be today if he overlapped himself?"- waton

  Isn't there a limerick that deals with part of this question?

  'There once was a man from Nantucket..............'
  

  There is no mention of the mans age in the limerick but there is something in there about where Franz can 'stick it' for his part in this whole religious fiasco.

  Why is the "faithful slave" not declaring the COMPLETE kingdom message?

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower

  w16 january p. 26 par.

  15 - "during the last days, jehovah has continued to select those who will make up the 144,000. if he chooses to wait until late into that period to select some for that privilege, who are we to question his wisdom?

  during the past 80 years, thanks to the "slave's" direction, j.w.

  "There are NO new remnant." - This is a direct quote from Nathan Knorr, third president of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society and member of the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses. He said this at the dedication of the Natick, Massachusetts Assembly Hall in the early 1970's. I guess 'ole Nathan was an Apostate and didn't even know it!

  I second that! What in the holy, flying fu@k is THAT all about!? Forty years ago you would have been reproved for conduct like that. (On a lighter note, at least the new, repackaged Jehovah's Witness religion gives the appearance of being normal and fun.)

  "........or some you have known in the congregation." - Mann377

  Why yes, I am reminded of many 'Bethel' Elders back in the day that wouldn't know the truth if it jumped up and bit them the ass! One that comes to mind is Aldoph Jones. He'd lie when the truth would do better.

  My mother died in the year 2000 because she would not accept a blood transfusion. She had an unusual form of Thyroid cancer. I don't envy you for what you are going through. My mother was in the hospital almost 5 months and I visited her nearly every day, signed her surgical orders, worked with her doctors and still ran my business. The whole affair was soul sucking and life draining. Take care of yourself and don't let this experience crush you. Witness parents don't always realize the 'hell' that they put their children through. I am sure that you love your mother, but respect her wishes and let her go in peace, if you can. My thoughts are with you because I understand the agony you are going through.

  I voted twice. (Sorry)For me it really is a tie between Tony and Mark. Mark Sanderson looks like my ex-pioneer partner, has that same stupid sneer/smirk and has an air of false humility about him.
