you gotta love good old russell.. http://pastorrussell.blogspot.com/2009/03/beware-of-apostates.htmlpastor russell said (in 1908).

all who cut loose from the society and its work, instead of prospering themselves or upbuilding others in the faith and in the graces of the spirit, seemingly do the reverseattempt injury to the cause they once served, and, with more or less noise, gradually sink into oblivion, harming only themselves and others possessed of a similarly contentious spirit.

if some think that they can get as good or better provender at other tables, or that they can produce as good or better themselveslet these take their course.

They are ready to say and write contemptible falsities and to stoop to do meanness.”

i was that one way to increase my field service time for me and my wife was by standing at a truck stop and hand out tapes to truckers in the early mornings.

this is the same lot that is frequented by drug dealers and hookers.

another time, while studying, i said i did not understand the blood issue.

i have decided to leave this organization!--a letter from a first century christian.

hi, brothers and sisters.

yes since 1914 in this I accept Jw teachings it makes sense, the same bible chronology led people to be expecting Jesus's arrival the first time, also I look around me and see that we are heading towards self-destruction, our willful blindness to consequences is what will destroy us. we are to powerful.

If some had said to us 10 years ago and bet some did the dangers of all the unlimited borrowing with the banks throwing money at us would lead to a worldwide recession would we have listened?

We didn't listen and there are many things we are still not listening on, as we cut through the last of the rainforests and use all our earthly resources. Feeling safe in our current luxuries.

Gee, I bet you're a scream at parties..

If your husband won't take the lead, you've got to do it all.

Bastards. You try bringing up 4 rebellious male teenagers who all don't wanna go to the meetings/fs etc with a hubby that can't be arsed either. But still not have the status of being a "divided household" as hubby is still technically a brother.

Yep, dear James Potticary, that elder that said I have to do everyone's job as its my responsibility alone. I even remember the scripture he used to justify his stand.

Something about "not forsaking the law of your mother......."

what is the one thing that made you want to NEVER go back???

for me it was when my elder dad put brusies on my arm, drug me down the hallway making me hit my head and broke my finger which resulted in surgery...and then he blamed it all on me!!!!

made me go to the meeting with my cast all druged up on pain killers and tell everyone that asked me what happened that it was an accident.

f***ing loser!!!!!

It was the day my dad said he wouldn't tolerate the cruel shunning I was receiving while we were all dealing with my mum's battle with cancer. He was all fired up to defend me so asked me to accompany him into a room to meet the PO about it. As soon as we got in there, he immediately switched, and I mean immediately fell in line with every crappy excuse the PO came up with, leaving me standing alone arguing with both of them.

A lot of the love and respect for my dad died that day and I can't get it back. That was the day I vowed I'd NEVER step through the doors of a Kingdom Hall again, not even for his funeral.
