have you had the pleasure of hearing this doozy??

i believe it was presented at the circuit level first, it has filtered it's way down.. the poor eldub opens with this definition of the word fantasize:.

"to conceive fanciful or extravagant notions, ideas, suppositions, ect.

Babies live in a world of statistical truth. They MUST have their every need met by caretakers so that they can reach adult maturity.

Adult Jehovahs Witnesses live in a world of wishful fantasy. They WANT their every need met by a caretaker God so that they can be infantilized.

RELIGION:

1. Boundless conceit concealed as utmost modesty.

2. Justification for regulating one's own behavior and coercing others to regulate theirs.

3. An inexhaustible mine of meaning for the mentally lazy.

konceptual99....if two men or two women that are unrelated stay in the same house overnight nothing is ever said or implied. Unless of course they 'may be known in the community to have homosexual leanings'. Watchtower morals and medical practices are confusing, corrupt, criminal and crazymaking!

What Assembly were you baptized at...

I still have my "YOUR WORD Is a Lamp to My Foot" book published in 1967. On page 220 is RECORD OF CHRISTIAN BAPTISM and it shows that I was baptised on January 30, 1971 at a Circuit Assembly in Nashua, N.H. I was 15 years old and didn't believe a word of it in my heart. I was a precocious little ba$tard and had read most of the Watchtower and Awake bound volumes from 1958 onward, most of Studies in the Scriptures, The Photo Drama of Creation book ( it was my own personal My Book of Bible Stories....my mother would encourage me to show people the 'good' people and the 'bad' people in the pictures) and The Harp of God as well as listening to many of Judge Rutherfords speeches on phonograph. So at a very young age I knew that something was remiss in this religion. At any rate, my mother kept putting the emotional pressure on me (she was an expert at mind screwing and emotional blackmail) to get baptised because Armageddon was coming in 1975 and I would die because I would be of age and not baptised. Wanting to know what was the right thing (I had no father or male figure that I could pour my heart out to) , I approached the Congreation Servant and the Bible Study Servant with my findings. The admonition of the Bible Study Servant was 'just stop reading those old books....they will only confuse you.' The Congregation Servant took things a step further. He said 'stop reading those old books. Everything you need to know is written in the "Jehovahs Witnesses in the Divine Purpose" book , "All Scripture is Inspired of God and Beneficial" book, the Bible and current Watchtower and Awake magazines. Study those, get baptised and keep busy in Jehovahs service. Armageddon will be here in just a few years and all this will be behind us.' My mother is long dead, the Bible Study Servant is long dead (he died in 1975.......) and I believe that the Congregation Servant is on his last legs. The 'invisible Armageddon' must have come in 1975 but I just seemed to miss it. However, TTATT is still TTATT.
