the watchtower published anthony morris iii's autobiography last year ... "remembering my first love has helped me to endure" by anthony morris iii.
i absolutely cannot believe how quickly he became a jehovah's witness.
in the span of less than a year, he attended his first meeting, studied, got baptized, became a pioneer, and married a jw girl.
I dedicate this song to you millie210! A.M. III is so self absorbed, he doesn't even know what an ignorant, uncouth, ill-mannered BORE that he really is.
My favorite line from this song is somewhat prophetic:
"Caught up in the fable, I watched the tower grow."
so just the other day i happened to look out my window to see the cobe and the elder who studied with me on the doors.
it got me thinking.. i remember one day, during my study that he said he loved me.
although he meant this as a "brother" it actually sent me into, what i can only describe as shock and alarm!
"Robot love is forever"......................unless you are a Jehovah's Witness robot.
The SPIN DOCTOR himself............working his Theocratic Magic.
he asks the barkeep for 13 glasses of water.
he turns to his 12 companions and winks....
I heard this joke from a 'worldy' friend of my DEVOUT, fanatical JW mother:
Mike the good Irish Catholic died and was met at the elevator to heaven by Saint Peter. "Oh", says Saint Peter, "I know you Mike. You're the good Irish Catholic boy that loved the Lord so deeply. You will be going directly to the top floor, since that is the Catholic heaven!" As the elevator made its way upward, they passed the 2nd floor and heard chanting, bells ringing and smelled incense. Mike asked, "Who is on this floor?" To which Saint Peter replied, "That's the Eastern Orthodox floor of heaven." They continued to move upward and at the 6th floor strange languages were heard and lots of commotion. "And this floor" Mike asked, "which denomination is here?" "Why the Pentecostals, of course." came Saint Peters answer. Approaching the 9th floor beautiful choir music filled the air. "Let me guess", said Mike. "Is this the floor for the Mormon heaven? The choir is singing beautifully and in perfect harmony." "Yes, yes! Very good observation Mike. It is indeed Mormon heaven" said Saint Peter. Suddenly, Saint Peter stopped the elevator at the 12th floor. "Why are we stopping?" inquired Mike. "Well," Saint Peter admonished him, "You must be very, very quiet as we pass by the 13th floor." "May I ask why" said Mike. "Certainly", laughed Saint Peter, "That is the floor that the Jehovah's Witnesses are on. Even though there are only 144,000 of them, they think that they are the only ones here. We must not upset their delusion by making any noise when we pass by their floor!"

Nice short story, Terry. Seems to be an interesting retelling of this excellent documentary. It's certainly worth a look.
I respect you and always read your posts, but I must admit that this reeks of plagiarism.
i would love to compile a list of the education obtained by the governing body members both past and present.
can anyone provide any information to get me started?.
it still amazes me they think they can translate ancient languages with an 8th grade education.

What is the Education Level of the Governing Body members?
I think it is safe to assume that the majority of them made it this far!
