thanx

It is done unselfishly; it does not harm anyone; on the contrary, it does much good. (pp. 284-285).
It doesn't harm anyone...except the traumatized molestation victims who were TOTALLY not threatened with disfellowshipping if they went to the police.

Have you ever intentionally said crazy things from the platform?
by B_Deserter inlike have you said stuff that is just outright insane like "each and every one of us should be ready and willing to die for the society" purely in the hopes that you'd turn someone off?
i imagine for most of us trying to fade that would be the most difficult thing to do, but some people are really good at shutting down and just going with a flow, too.. .
i ask because it's the only possible explanation i can come up with for some of the really bat-shit insane stuff i've heard come from the podium.

I don't want to worship a God that.............
by oompa inwould kill billions of people for any reason.. would require family members to not speak to a member of their own family.. would require a parent to stone a child for being a bad boy.. would require probably millions of animals to be slaughtered and make smoke for him.. would let a rapist of a young girl have the privilege of marrying her.. would let mankind suffer for thousands of years to prove something to his heavenly creatures.. would let horrible "natural" tragedies occur, killing millions of people, when they don't have to happen.. would communicate to mankind by writing to them.....but not keep any originals around....like pyramids.. would want to be worshiped in the first place.....i just don't get it........................you can add your own if you want..........oompa.

...requires us to pretend to believe something we don't in the interest of "congregation unity" because he hasn't gotten around to correcting his "earthly organization" yet

Doesn't it seem strange that people would make such a big production out of themselves giving blood if it wasn't somehow connected to JW dogma?

As a Witness I Hated Personal Study- How About You ?
by flipper ini started a serious thread on cult mind control- so i figured i'd start a sarcastic funny thread, or serious, your choice how to explore it , on personal study !
i got so sick and tired as a witness with that expression being crammed down my throat !
" personal study " they told us !

cog, I'd rather let this go. I'm tired and not thinking straight. I didn't even get the situation right. She's not engaged, she's dating, expecting to be engaged. I don't know why I screwed that up, but I did, so take that as it is. As far as signals go, I think she was sending them, but I didn't reciprocate. She may have just settled for this guy, or not, who knows. When we talk it's always for hours and she's ALWAYS complaining about him, too. That's as much as I can remember or think about tonight. I might revisit this tomorrow.
