Actually it is about both love and numbers:
Jehovah's Witnesses 'love' their 'numbers'!
in the org did anyone ever tell you that its not about the numbers...yet the reality was that it was all about the numbers?.
i ran into a pimi who asked why my family and i were awol.
i told him that it was private and personal and i wasn't at liberty to discuss it.

some people say that’s the least we should do while others say no way!

what do you think about dispensing reparations?
I think I am the great-great-great grandson of this child millworker in Lowell Massachusetts. She worked for pennies a day and worked 12 to 14 hours, 7 days a week in the late 1800's. I know she is Caucasian but that shouldn't matter. I want my money and I want it now!
i know i would be miserable if i could remember all my dead relatives.
all my dead children, parents all my worldly family members and friends, yes and the billions of other people too.
all the people jehovah will be killing off in the years to come.
Jehovah God...the Great Lobotomizer!
"And the former things will not be called to mind, Nor will they come up into the heart." - Isaiah 65:17 NWTRevised
the world is getting worse, for example children are getting more cheeky!.
proof positive!

'The end is near because...( insert social, political or personal difficulties HERE)
Might I remind those zealous proclaimers of doom and gloom that just called on your daughter the following scripture:
"But the end of all things has drawn close." - 1 Peter 4:7 NWTRevised
Those words were written by Peter 62-64 A.D. , almost 2000 years ago. How near is near? How close is close?
is there any transparency in how many hours on the ministry the governing body members do on the ministry?
by this i mean the physical act of going door to door in their area.
i guess it is plausible that they would count overseas trips and working on publications as part of their ministry, but this is not what they encourage from the jw on the street.. is it possible for a gb member to be reproved or otherwise for not going out in service?
Marty and Gertie 'clocking in time' out in the ministry.

Ding...it's been done already. Smile for the camera, Sammy!
Make it look real, Markie!
but i believe in jehovah god, and i read the bible every day.. i believe the bible is god's word.
and i pray to god every day.. it's somewhat off topic.
but i'd like to find a friend who loves the bible and want to read and find the truth of the bible together with me.. i live in japan and i am a japanese.
Keith, you could read the Bible naked, pray and then talk about whatever pops up!Together, you may come to some interesting conclusion
once we found out we were all witnesses, we all hugged.
now we just had to see if our kingdom hall was still standing.
when we came to the hall we had such a huge shock.. there were so many people there.
Well here's one Jehovah's Witness that was probably glad that the 'ancient worthies' hadn't arrived by 1920. Judge Rutherford would not have had his built in excuse to build a mansion in California if Abraham, Isaac and Jacob came that early. And besides, they no doubt would not have allowed him to waste Jehovah's money in such an extravagant way.
i grew up with steve pare who is now an elder in southern california.
he sent me this note after i talked to him on the phone and sent him my book.. "the super-abundant blessings i have received in the advancing the earthly organization of jehovah have been fantastic !!!".
"jehovah is not behind in creating the paradise & his mighty of 9,000,000 will work with 20-50 billion to be resurrected & in 1,000 years the paradise will be done on time!!
It was exciting times in Pastor Russell's day...and then he died.
It was exciting times in Judge Rutherford's day...and then he died.
It was exciting times in Nathan Knorr's day...and then he died.
It was exciting times in Fred Franz's day...and then he died.
It is exciting times in Steve Pare's day...and soon he too will die.
Every human that has ever prophesied about or looked forward to paradise, nirvana, 7th heaven, utopia, ouranos, Valhalla or Elysium has died. Each of us posting here will die. No one gets out alive!
i dropped my old computer 2 weeks ago and had to get a new one.
i tried to log on under "new boy" for over a week and since there was no way to retrieve my old pass word i gave up and started a new profile as the bethelite.
i just want to thank everyone for the help in getting my new book out, in fact i put this website in the dedication in the book.
