stupid things jws do
by logic in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i like this site because you can say what is the truth, the things you would like to stand up in the congregation and say.

for just a few: the last par.

in the watchtower study says "what are we going to study in the next article" and then some moron always raises his hand and answers....... calling everyone by brother this and brother that.

thank you for this place in cyber space, this is therapy for me.

there is something about writing things down, that helps put things in perspective........ the day i left it was pouring rain........i really screwed up, i found out the night before, as i was packing things up, that i had way under estimated how much stuff i had.

i had two large suit cases (that i could barely shut the lids on) and a large army duffel bag.

The Delusion of Certitude
by IsaacJS2 in
1. watchtower
2. bible
the delusion of certitude pt 1. and how we, the "the lost sheep," help them maintain it.

no one has enough information about the universe to truly know if they have "the truth.

" to me, anyone who claims to have the absolute, ultimate truth of everything is literally claiming to have absolute knowledge.

black thursday september 1972. knorr gathered all the bethel "heavies" and gb to the kh in the 119 building.

the three freds (circuit overseers).............and about 50 brothers.....thats right only 50. the other guys chickened out, they knew it was going to be a blood bath.

i was there with 7 others from the launrdy............... it started out with dan smoally (not even 30 years old and partaking) telling about what max larson (head of the whole factory) told him "there was no way he was one of the anointed!

back to the food..........the saying was "its the best food in the world before they cook it" the coffee was the really bad.

they would take a 55 lb.

bag of good coffee beans and boil the shit out of it.the joke was if anyone could find the guy that made the coffee, and kill him, our production nwould go up and armageddon could finally come.

because of the length of this, it will be done in two parts.

part 1. i when to bethel march 21,1970. at the time you had to be a pioneer for two years to apply, by the time i left in 1974 they were calling people in who had never pioneered..........average stay was 5 months ( they had signed up for 4 years)..........the reason they left was......well, it was hell.. one of the reasons was, knorr hated bethelites, but he loved the gilead students and why?

because when they screwed up they were thousands of miles away!........just before i got there, they had kicked out over 60!
