  It is very immature to start a flame thread against another poster. It's sad that it's even allowed here because nothing of any substance will come from it other then the topic starter looking pathetic.

  This article also confirms it. I am not sure how they can legally refuse treatment of a trauma patient being that they are a trauma center. When I worked as an EMT we had to treat everyone and could not refuse treatment unless our lives were in danger from doing so.

  If You're Annointed and You Know It Clap Your Hands...

  by VoidEater in

  ok...i see there are a fair number of posters here that have a "heavenly hope".... i can't help but wonder - what would it be like if a group of annointed (those that know in their hearts they will be resurrected to heaven) were to step up to the wbts, claim the authority the society vests in them as the true intermediaries between the great crowd and jesus, and try to give input to the gb?.

  how could the gb posisbly say they are not part of the fds?

  i suppose they would just paint everyone with the apostasy brush - "because i say they are and they disagree with me" - but wouldn't it be a marvel to see a group come forward to assert the authority and responsibility the gb says is vested in the fds?.

  The Jack in the box sirloin bacon cheeseburger. It probably has 5000 calories but I can taste each one. I go with the grilled onions and cheddar cheese.

  Tell Me About Your Jehovah's Witness Mother...If You had One!

  by new boy in

  so since no one picked up the ball, after my thread on "your jw father".....here we go.... my mother (bless her heart) was born in kansas in 1926....her mother died in 1934, when my mother was 8 years old.

  she died trying to give yourself an abortion with a coat hanger.

  it was the "great depression".....she was 34 years old 4 kids and a 5th on the way...my grandfather would blow through town just long enough to "knock her up" and leave....no money....no hope.

  Mine has been a JW her whole life and appears to enjoy the sickness. She was physicaly abusive and used guilt trips to manipulate everyone around her. In her eyes my wife and I can't possibly be good parents because we are not raising our daughter as a witness. Last weekend I asked her several questions via email about her cult and she refused to address a single one. In twisted way I have her to thank for leaving the cult when I did. Both of my JW sisters avoid her and my dad do to thier inability to communicate without critism and self righteousness.

  We had the bookstudy at our house for several years when I was in my teens. Her abrasive critism got to the point it had to be changed due to the problems it caused. She is a very unhappy person and I always hold out hope she can somehow find some happiness. As long as she remains in a doomsday cult that may never happen.

  Avoiding an Elder

  i'm almost six months past walking away from the religion, and one of the elders has risen and thrown a monkey wrench into my entire plan.

  things have been great actually.

  since i've managed to shed myself of congregation responsiblities, the elders have gotten off my back quite a bit.

  Get your camcorder out and do like this guy did when the elders visited him.
