It stops me right there, the request to not record a message of truth. That wouldn't disturb anyone to record. Just an 'alert' right there!

Drinks with my father last night...
by bluesbreaker59 inok, so i've been df'd for almost a year now, and out of the blue my dad asked me to go out for drinks with him.
this is big because he's an elder in my former hall.
he's only seen me once in the year i've been out, at my (step)grandfather's funeral (his father in law).

I am so impressed with your experience w/your dad. The love & respect you have for each other gave me a tear of joy. I am so impressed that he would never 'disfellowship' you and he is showing 'unconditional love' as a father should. That he encouraged college and programs or classes and acknowledged your valuable talents was amazing. Possibly he is going thru a personal "crises of conscience." So many best wishes to you both.

Dutch courts consider banning JW's adopting children due to blood doctrine
by inrainbows inon wednesday the dutch radd van state (council of state) heard a case regarding the adoption of children by jehovahs witnesses.. heres a rough translation of this news item;.
http://www.volkskrantblog.nl/bericht/185201.
the hague - a couple from veenendaal that are member of the jehovahs witnesses (who are against blood transfusions) cannot adopt a foreign child.

Glad to see this. In the U.S. a 14-yr boy was accepted and placed under guardianship (when he was 11 yrs old) of his JW aunt. He recently died because the JWs were able to mind control him into denying a blood transfusion when he got cancer (there was a 75% survival rate). The Seattle, Washington court judge accepted the boy's ignorant decision. It is so sickening to me!

I remember even reading here months ago, a couple different comments stating even a circuit overseer or two had said 8 out of 10 JW youths were leaving the organization anymore. So the organization knows and is not ashamed of that, nor gives a damn.

Talk with My Mom - My Elder brother Explains Bethel Changes to Her
by flipper intalked with my witness mom, 80 years old this morning - and apparently she is pretty stoked up about the bs my ex- bethel brother ( a cloned elder of 35 years ) said to her about all the changes at bethel going on.
obviously he still has inside ties at bethel.
to avoid being redundant ( as i know most of you have heard some of this stuff ), my mom explained to me that my brother told her , " they are selling off most of the buildings in brooklyn as in the next 3 years they plan to move the entire operation to patterson and upstate new york.

He said that the non-GB Bethel movers & shakers tried getting the GB to move up to Patterson, but they didn't go for it. Too set in their ways, established in their respective congos, etc.
The GB is used to Brooklyn Bethel being the "Most Holy" place. Of course, they get their choice, while some other non-GB Bethelites have to accept their assignment to go 'where the need is greater'. The GB rules.

Then she said, " Also they aren't going to send brothers and sisters overseas anymore to dangerous countries as the political climate is too scary for them to be in some places in the world. "
What about missionaries or Gilead students? Is that ending too?

The Governing Body though older don't have much more experience either,,most no children,,not a real job in the real world, yet they think that they are qualified to 'govern' people all over the world. Their reality wisdom and experience is zilch.
