this weeks video on older ones stepping down
by road to nowhere inwhat i caught was how they were baffled by having to be in "the world".
then any and all help came from friends offering money, food, apartments, jobs.
can't anyone see how they people are used up and then discarded?.

What Are Your Rights?
by Simon inrights seem to be everywhere nowadays.
say hello to someone in the wrong way and you've violated 101 of their human rights.
people imagine they have the right to all sorts of things - food, healthcare, housing, internet ... so many things are labelled basic rights and then you get onto their human rights - a favourite of the do-nothing bodies such as the un to declare.

National Socialist German Worker's Party (Nazi's) - We know how that turned out!
U.S.S.R. : Union of Soviet Socialist Republics - We know how that turned out!
"From each according to his ability, to each according to his need."
No thank you. I'll live with imperfect capitalism until something better is contrived.

I was baptized 48 years ago tomorrow. January 30, 1971 in Nashua, New Hampshire. I was 15 years old and did it to get my god-intoxicated, religiously fanatical, dyed in the wool Jehovah's Witness mother off my back. I did not believe in the religion since I was a very little boy but got baptized anyway to shut her up. The rest as they say, is history.

I still have one of those 'puffy pirate shirts' from the late 1980's. If I wear it sometime and happen to die or be killed, will I be resurrected in it?

"Never stop your enemy when he's making a mistake" - Napoleon
by JeffT inso yesterday when i went to the library there were three older gentlemen in suits standing around the front door.

Apparently even Noah found it much easier to stand with his cart just outside the ark door entrance. 'Life saving work' my ass!

What new cuts might be coming
by pepperheart inwhat new cuts might be coming for the watchtower ?.

I agree with Vidiot. Watchtower may soon consider those properties redundant, sell them off, reap the financial reward and reassign all those loyal Bethelites 'to the field'. Wallkill would make an excellent addition to the SUNY educational system. ( Not to give the Hateful Eight any financial advice or ideas!)

Welcome rolliepollie and please keep an open mind. There is much good information to be learned here from a multiplicity of deep thinkers. I for one would like to believe in a higher power but find I am unable to reconcile reality with wishful thinking. If there was a God or Higher Power and he was really concerned about the human race, his message to us should be clear, concise, convincing, and conceivable on a rational level. Instead we are offered the Bible as holy scripture and it's message is cloudy, conflated, confusing, and crap. On top of that, we are told that we need a third party religious authority figure to interpret it's arcane message. No thank you.

Neil Young - The song LAST DANCE
That song reminds me of being a Bethelite and that if I had chosen to I could live my own life.
"You can live your own life
Making it happen
Working on your own time
Laid back and laughin'
Oh no, oh no.
No, no, no."
Chrissie Hynde and The Pretenders - The song KID
That song reminds me of unrequited love from when I was 23 years old.
"You think its wrong
I can tell you do
How can I explain
When you don't want me to."

I am a proud Jehovah's Witness Defender
by Matthew Jefferson inmy name is matthew j and i have just ended my study with the jehovah's witnesses.
no, i did not stop studying because i believe the jehovah's witnesses are a 'cult', i left due to the minor beliefs that i hold that remain separate from the organization.
i called my elder who is still an amazing man and great counselor, affirming that i do not wish to continue my studying.

Welcome Matthew. I found your post intriguing at best and naïve at worst. You say that you are a 'Jehovah's Witness defender and friend' and your loyalty is an admirable trait. However, since you are not a baptized member of this religion, they feel that you will die in the impending Armageddon. They are not your real friends. They just tolerate you with their false façade in hopes that you will join their religion and become just like them. Cofty has made an excellent point in saying that you are now 'among experts'. You were exposed to this religion for 9 months. The combined months of the posters association here runs into the thousands. Please stay and learn from those posting here that have far more lifetime experience with this religion than a mere 9 months.

"You have the right to remain silent." - Miranda warning in the United States
Some may want to consider that warning before they post here in order not to elicit replies that they find unpleasant , distasteful, or in direct opposition to their 'pet' ideas. That would include those who accuse others of bigotry, Nazism, and Watchtower 'cult' thinking.
