You have good insight Terry and your explanation illustrates how ridiculous the mythology is thanks for that.
Mankind is made to suffer because of an act of a God who has had his nose put out of joint so to speak it just don't make sense.
in certain instances, in society's courts of law, a false accusation takes place.
a wrong conviction happens and only a heroic effort on the part of family, friends and attorneys can save the wrongfully convicted person from penalty, imprisonment or death.. another possiblity might also occur:.
if you are wrongfully accused and convicted but saved by the very person who accused you--what then?

He or she is not "strong in the truth "
You are not a Witness unless you are Witnessing.
It's been mentioned previously but the phrase' heavy petting is wrong during courtship' always made me say Oh Eck ! whenever it was mentioned.
We don't believe in luck.
Heard quite often, " it's not your question that's bothering me it's why are you questioning "
Spritual indegestion especially after trying to figure out new light.
Heard on a few occasions "Who needs money more than the Society "
Just to cover the cost of the printing.
Spiritually weak.
That book is a bit deep if you are new in the truth.

Now brothers and sisters listen up we have more erotic fiction for you.
Once upon a time an extremely handsome brother, who should have really been pioneering instead of trying to earn a living ,was sitting at his desk with his biceps exposed due to it being a very hot day so hot in fact that he had to roll his shirt sleeves right up, you know what I mean riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight up . This hunk would not let anybody kick sand in his face down on the beach during a Kingdom picnic he had muscles to die for his cockles were not half bad either. Ocasionally on very hot and sweaty summer days he was allowed to go tie less with two top shirt buttons undone exposing three strands of chest hair..He was so attractive in all the right places that other worldly women and the occasional fella used to linger longer around his desk causing him to have sensual thoughts and temptaions beyond what other normal less endowed mortals like us have to endure.
What to do ? What do do? He went home each evening and before he got into bed read his Watchtower 68 times he was going to make it 69 times but that number caused him to have more bad thoughts. He lay in bed under his sheets which now resembeld a big top at a circus tent and suddenly realised what he was doing wrong .The fact of the matter became clear the brothers needed to read scripture to him and on this thought he turned the light off turned over and went straight to sleep problem solved.

our friend, oompa, has passed away.
just recieved the news a couple of hours ago, and have almost no details.
it happened today or yesterday, he took his own life.
Very sad news R.I.P. OOMPA can't help thinking that the Watchtower Orgs. policy played it's part in contributing to this very sad ending it certainly didn't help that's for sure.
i've finally turned my attentions away from anthony morris iii (just for the time being!
) and done a video about another governing body member... gerrit losch.. in this video, taken from a 2008 talk (given in sydney, australia), gerrit gives us his grim predictions for the future.... .

Jehovahs Witnesses greatest achievement is about to commence so get ready to start up your diggers crank up the bulldozers and sing a Kingdom melody as you breathe in the stench of diesel smoke and rotting flesh. First prize goes to the Witness who recognises the bodies of children who lived in the same street as the burial party.
My eyes have seen the gory !!! Talking about bodies will the G.Body be doing any of the outrageous covering up of this illegal mass extermination spree . Me thinks this is a crime scene.
By the way they will tell you when they come knocking that it must be true because it's in the Bible.
as some of you have noticed the asl video warning against masturbation (another guilt trip) is creating waves.
this is not small fry.
1. it is humorous - most topics (like other policies) are serious/depressing (blood, shunning, pedos).
If there is a judical convened for a deaf person with allegations being made say for instance of fornication does someone have to sign the evidence of the act and then sign for the defense because it could become very animated and not to mention very confusing to the commitee.
this advert appears every time i click on the active topics link.
please make it stop.... .
I know what you mean it's annoying especially when my wife asks " reading anything interesting dear?"
many of you will remember the august 15th 2012 watchtower article in which guy pierce admitted that the governing body was uncertain of jehovah's will regarding the plans to move the world headquarters upstate, but were pressing ahead anyway.. for those unfamiliar, here is my article on the subject.... http://ex-jw.com/governing-body-admits-doubts-over-new-headquarters-plans.
now there is a video promoting the move on the link below.... http://www.jw.org/en/news/by-region/americas/united-states/video-clip-warwick-plans/.
you'll notice there's no narration, just images of the site put to music.
It looks as if Ben Elton is part of the project management team then!
