Any JW who is "IN" would see that as a request made with humility.
My thought exactly! Fake humilty.

Stephen Lett: "Pray for us to be faithful and discreet!"
by cedars inout of interest, i have just been scanning through the four latest available watchtower study articles (july thru october 2011) and in doing so i am reading them objectively for the first time.
i have been shocked, outraged and amazed by some of my findings.. as one example, take the article "a history-making meeting" from the august 15th watchtower, 2011. the article, beginning on page 18, discusses the 126th annual meeting of the watch tower bible and tract society, and begins with a summary of the opening talk by governing body member stephen lett.
it concludes the highlights of his talk in this way:.

Feel like I'm living a lie....
by mochamint22 init's been a while since i've posted on the forum but im needing to get how i'm feeling out of my head and out in the open.
i don't know what's going on with me but sometimes i feel overwhelmingly sad and my eyes well up like i'm going to start crying.
i'm not thinking about any one particular thing when this happens.

I am no counselor, but it sounds like you're suffering from learned helplessness. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learned_helplessness
You can break this cycle, and you must for the sake of your kids. Talk to your therapist about it, and get away from this toxic man as soon as possible.

by PenelopePaige inummmmm.....isn't she not supposed to do this?
i saw the story on tmz today, sorry don't know how to post the link....what's up with this?.

Talk is cheap, but it takes money to buy whiskey...at least as far as the Watchtower is concerned. I bet Mrs. Jackson has donated tons to the boys in Brooklyn. Micheal even took a page from their playbook when he paid hush money to those accusing him of child sex abuse.

Hold your head up and realize the insanity of all of this. These vipers are df'ing you for an alleged "sin" when at the same time, they refuse to call the police when one of their so-called brothers commits crimes ike child sex abuse or domestic violence. It's all well documented, my new friend. Stick around and see just how vile this corporation is!
Hate the fact my parents wont talk to me anymore. I hope they will still see their grandson though
For the love of all that is holy, please don't permit any jw, family or otherwise, unfettered access to your child. Jws shunning you is teaching your child inhumane practices and disrespect. Aside from that, these loons will find it necessary to indoctrinate your child, not to mention the pedophiles that are running amok in this organization.

Hurricane Irene Relief funds
by OnTheWayOut indear brothers and sisters,.
we have searched the entire east coast to find at least a handful of your spiritual brothers and sisters that were adversely affected somehow by hurricane irene.
having found them, we would like to address the dozens and maybe hundreds of letters and emails and phone calls that are sure to come any minute now.

P.S. Please ignore the fact that we'll have brothers and sisters sign over their homeowners insurance checks to the Watchtower after volunteers fix the damaged houses. Your monetary donations are still expected. And for Christ's sake, don't earmark the funds for disaster relief. After all, Jehovah needs all the money he can get to pay off child sex abuse victims who have the nerve to bring lawsuits against his earthly organization.

My husband worked on our van all weekend so we can be there. What time does this shindig start? How about noon? Neither one of us can see to drive at night, so we'll need to get started back home during late afternoon.
Edited to add: OutAtLast, have you heard from your friend in NOVA? I told our friend in MD about it and that he could ride/room with you, but I doubt he'll come. Also I'm still working on one of my friends from Pittsburgh to drive up and join us, (you know who you are, my sweet girl so come on!).

Startingover, I think you mean page 13. Anyway, this all sounds super "worldly" to me! Both of them have graduate degrees, both of them work, and they attend functions like class reunions. WTF? Yet college is compared to drugs, alcohol and immorality in the ragazines? Young jws are encouraged to skip the prom? I wonder why Judah and Amber aren't out washing windows and cleaning houses, so they can pioneer. Hypocritical assholes!!!!!!!

Snakes = Married
by SnakesInTheTower init has been over a month and a half since i have even been on the board, and that really only to ask about gps units (got a tom-tom) and mention the new job.
way too busy with life - post jw now 4 years.. of course, the new job has benefits, health insurance, etc.
(including unlimited use of the company car for personal use and the company pays for the unlimited gas for about a $25/week out of my check -- huge benefit) and this has enabled toni and i to finally after a two year engagement, to get married.
