How weird is that? Did your KH have ugly mustard yellow plastic molded chairs?
I don't remember seeing the chairs...but the Hall did have a drab inclosed clostrophobic feel to it....kinda like real life.
last night i had a really strange dream.
i was at the hall (that in itself was strange) and jim jones was there (funny thing...he looked just like powers boothe) getting the kool-aid ready.
there were "brothers" at the doors holding ak-47's, and all the doors were locked.

There were "brothers" at the doors holding AK-47's, and all the doors were locked. Now, if the above wasn't strange enough....I somehow mangaged to get out, and went to call the cops. In the parking lot, I ran into a brother that was coming in late. I told him what was going on, and he told me to keep that appostate stuff to myself!
The above can only be because of my post on Kool-Aid, and the other comments I made about what my wife says when I put "the truth" under her nose.....but still, it was a very unsettling dream.
my mom just informed me that a 17 year old has been disfellowshipped at her hall.at least 7 others have been kicked out within the last 5 years.the publisher count is only 56 .why do they let the teens get baptized so young?
i was 14 and only got baptized because of pressure and the end was coming.if you weren't baptized you would be destroyed.. why don't they wait until everyone is at leat 21?
all these teens haven't come back and you won't ever see them unless they return.i haven't seen my cousin in over 2 years.no one went to his wedding,isn't invited to any family functions and is to be avoided at all costs.. the watchtower society should be ashamed that they act that way and the parents let them get away with it..
And to think....the "Society" gives the world a hard time for baptising babies...when they basically do the SAME thing. I have seen NINE YEAR olds get babtised!
how is the society getting around this....."those that saw all these things, will not pass away before the end comes.
"...seems to me, those that saw the events of 1914 are getting pretty long in the tooth.. .
Same crap hash re-heated and served on a clean plate.
Yup, sure is! BUT....the gravy is getting really hard, and the potatoes are starting to turn green.
the society's completely nonsensical and contradictory stance on when god's kingdom comes is really brought home in this awake!
the dec 06 awake ("jesus - who was he") has as it's second article "the life he makes possible" (referring to jesus).
in that article is the subheading "evidence god's kingdom is near" which reads as follows:
I think I remember hearing them say words to the effect of "Generation" could mean any number of years.
there are three cult leaders (opps, i mean elders) on the jc, right?
does it take a majority or all three to agree to df you?.
can anyone give the outline on the standard jc?
Naw, it's just the sick and twisted since of humor that being raised in "the truth" gave me.

I take if you haven't read the 1995 WT explaining the "adjustment" in the understanding of "generation"?
Yes, I did. I didn't understand it then, and I don't now.

But do they keep a record of the minority discension?
The Minority Report maybe? Hmmmm....I wonder what Tom Cruise would think?

Are you gonna go before the firing squad, J1?
No. Not as far as I know. But now since I have decided not to take ANY more crap from these people, it may only be a matter of time. That and I have let my "OpSec" get rather lax on this board, and if they REALLY wanted to, they could probably at least accuse me of being J-1. Not that I would admit it of course.....or maybe I would. I'm just getting really close to the point of not caring what they do.
