i called bethel recently asking a question.
the question was do you have a bible example of someone that showed pricipled love to anothet human by giving them the silent treament for months?
answer well bro are you a jw yes well we will aens the elders over to help you.
we will "aens" the elders
One of the key words in your post is misspelled, what is aens supposed to be.
isaiah 8:1 the lord named this person"mahershalalhashbaz".. king of babylon 2 kings 20:12 "berodachbaladan or merodachbaladan".
king of assyria 1 chronicles 5:6 "tilgathpilnesar".
and then we have "do do" in 1 chronicles 11 :12. i never heard those names mention in the ministry school.. i wonder who had a hand in naming do do, satan or god..
Well I never knew the name DoDo was in the Bible. I remember finding out when I was kid in the mid 60's that the name Gomer is biblical, it was the same time that the show Gomer Pyle was on TV.
When the name Salome came up in one of the meetings and a child was doing the reading our answering the question you just knew they were going to pronounce it "salami", and a few adults pronounced it that way as well.
lots of great potential to help those sp that are being sent off without any financial help from the wtbts.
i think that it would be a great way to get some exposure on this topic and how the wtbts thats those that dedicated their lives to the wtbts only to be sent packing at a late age.
then someone can take the funds to one sp couple, possibly, and give it to them in honor of the apostates that know what is really happening.
notjustyet - Are you Band on the Run (BOTR) using a new log in name or something, because I can't follow the two different things you're saying in your title and first post and what you're saying above

it's been 4 years since it happened to me.
an almost overnight experience.
i read ray franz coc in 3 days and that was it.
I was born into it, but never baptized, I haven't attending a meeting since the 1980's, way before the internet, but what REALLY sealed the deal was when I read Crisis of Conscious, really breaks it down on how it's nothing but a cult. THe internet helped as well, there were certain boards around in the 90's. I remember being a part of Tisihie's board, probably some folks here were on her board too.
or do traces or attitudes still rear its ugly head of your past involvement with the witnesses?
No motherf*^*g way to think I act like a JW now. I hate them for who they are and what they stand and how they totally destroyed many, many lives. Be it just having a normal childhood or those that gave their lives because of the blood issue, but now, "Jehovah" (as in seven old guys in Brooklyn) says you can have blood fractions. . . give me a break.
Take Sides with Jah is an oldy but goody, I remember that one from the green songbook from the 1960's. Speaking of that particular songbook, does anyone remember #1 in that called Hail Him? Well, come to find out back in the 1960's they choose that one to often because it was so close to an old gospel type song, I remember we sang it one time in the mid 60's and one did kinda get you rockin' and rollin', unlike all the rest of their songs. But I remember a lot of the songs and another one from the green book was Dedication, which said verses, like "take my hand and take my feet" yada yada yada, whatever, but that was pretty good (to a kid like I was at the time). Remember the #19 from the purple/pink songbook that sounded Hawaiian ??
isn't it ironic - the one day of the year you can pretty much guarantee that most people are not only home but anticipating people people calling at their door ... and jehovah's witnesses don't go out that day.. heck, if the householder isn't receptive they even have the get-out option of claiming it was a joke and they dressed up as jehovah's witnesses for halloween!
:d. of course we know the aim of the ministry for most is to avoid talking to people.
that's why they do it during the day midweek or on sat morning or sun afternoon when people are most likely out..
I never heard that Halloween was the day that the Dubs don't out, I don't think anything stops them. If they go out on Xmas they go on Halloween for sure. I guess it depends on where your location is though, since nothing they do has all the Dubs on one page.
what is your opinion of prince nowadays?.
one of the worlds raunchiest rock stars, prince is in his stacked heels and flamboyant suit strutting from house to house around an ordinary suburban estate.. from: http://www.mirror.co.uk/celebs/news/2010/07/06/prince-how-the-rock-legend-turned-his-life-around-115875-22384807/.
flanked by minders, he goes up a garden path, knocks on a door and politely asks the householder: would you like to talk about god?.
I heard that story about Boy George today too, plus the fact that I heard his new single on the radio this week and he's back to singing suggestive lyrics. If some brothers got together and formed a band and the singer sang the same words, you know they'd be reported to the elders and in that back room in no time, however, Prince can get away with it.
