So funny they label gays when out in service or around other Dubs, but I'm sure there's a few gay folks in their congregation, but then they say "Jehovah will clean out his organization in due time". I've told the story here many many times why I choose the moniker of ShirleyW. which shows the hypocrisy of homosexuals in da troof in the congregation I grew up in.

Is it possible that someone who gives really gushing comments might still be awake?
by Isambard Crater inof the 50% of congregants who regularly participate, many of them give gushing answers about how appreciative they are, how wonderful jw.org is and so on, which makes me think nobody in my congregation is awake.
but maybe it's possible for someone who comes across as super spiritual to be awake?
i can't see how, though, as surely it's emotionally draining to fake it like that?

many try with the Ralph Kramden get rich quick schemes, but never pans out.
They've sold every product under the sun but that doesn't last very long, just how many cleaning products can one person buy when you invite the same crowd to the same "gathering" ? Even had some elders in my area start some kind of insurance company which turned out to be a scam, which resulted in coverage in the newspaper media here and they were DFd

by charity7 inis this a slogan that was recently come up with for jw's?
i've seen it used as a hashtag on instagram for jw's, key chains, cakes, about me biography description... the first thing i thought was, isn't that a little pretentious?

I was always amazed at all the problems these group of people had. I've never seen a religious group of people have so many issues with each other. i always thought, well that isn't Christian. And actually when I reflect on things, I've never been treated so poorly from some of "God's true people." I've never experienced a group of religious people with so many mental and health issues as the JW's
You nailed it exactly! Best life ever is what they try to convince themselves that they're leading, although inside their minds, well, read the part of your post that I quoted above. Cult like mentality, trying to believe it themselves and make others believe it.

Have you been featured in a Watchtower publication or on jw.org?
by George One Time inmaybe you were considered a good example or a picture was needed.. can you give some background of the procedure?
how about the vetting?
if you cannot give away your identity, that is fine.

About ten years ago Sister's teenage daughter was included in one of the pics in the Watchtower, so I guess the Elders in the congregations pass the word about certain families that appear steadfast for da troof. I wonder though, since the mom in this family told me back then they were getting HBO for free without paying TimeWarner and she used to run a su-su , that's like the pyramid scheme where folks put in money every week and one person gets paid off, I just wonder if they shared that secret with the Elders, or maybe the person that recommended their daughter was in on the cable and money scheme as well ?

Was looking at my childhood book "From Paradise Lost to Paradise Regained" I found something interesting.
by Still Totally ADD ini was showing a friend of mine what kind of books my parents allowed me to read when i was very young.
no children books that was age related but the so called orange paradise book was my only children book i had.
she was taken back on how violent it was and showing little kids being killed by god was just unspeakable.
