  We bought our new tree a few weeks ago and it is in need of some ornaments. I collect Snowmen and love blown-glass balls.

  Aug 15th WT - Pg7 par3 - it's right there in plain sight

  by passwordprotected in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  paragraph 3 of this typically un-self-effacing article is incredible for 2 reasons, 2 reasons jws are unlikely to be awake to and will more than likely be blind to.. .

  first of all the wts very grandly state that "jehovah and "the faithful and discreet slave" deeply appreciate all their past and present contributions to the kingdom work.".

  firstly, the wts have put their organisation in the self-assigned role as the "faithful and discreet slave", which we'll come to in a second.

  They aren't ready to wake up. I started watching The Matrix again the other night and the similarities to being in the cult are scarier than anything you'll see on Halloween.

  It was a shock to realize how easy it was for me to look right past what was there all the time.

  MY PROJECT IS (FINALLY) FINISHED!

  by Mary in

  2. bible

  for those of you who are interested, the project i've been working on for the last few months is finally finished.

  i originally did a thread about it back in april: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/10/156497/1.ashx.

  it seems that alot of us still have family members in the religion and have not infrequent arguments with them about some of the beliefs and practices.

  What is your family's favorite Christmas tradition?

  by LovesDubs in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was a methodist for the first 30 years of my life, a jw in the middle 13 and then from 1997 have returned to my christmas roots, albeit with a different perspective about what "religion" means to me.

  but christmas is a big package which to me extends beyond the birth of jesus.

  ive had to re-start, and invent new, traditions for my kids and i as we are alone down here in florida most christmases, and all our relatives who are down here are jws.

  Careful friends, that JC could be viewed as a Legally Binding Arbitration!

  by Oroborus21 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  total car franchising corporation, plaintiff, v. doug anderson, defendant.. .

  defendant argued against confirmation because a prior arbitration award in his favor rendered the arbitrators' award void, and an estoppel defense applied.

  outcome: confirmation denied, because second arbitration lacked a contract basis or foundation because the first arbitration dissolved the contract, the award was null, void, and unenforceable, and equitable estoppel applied to preclude plaintiff from denying the committee decision.. .

  I finally said it...I don't like jw's

  by kzjw in

  2. beliefs

  i'm vacation and watched as my wife headed out for her piosneering this past monday...i was pissed, because i'm here, but she'd rather be out there, hawking the wares of the borg as a non-paid employee.

  i stewed in the house for 3-4 hours, angry that i took vows with this woman, but she essentially is forsaking those vows for her "friends", when she knows i don't care for it.

  well the tolerance finally wore off!

  2. scandals

  the following three paragraphs are part of a startling new essay written by a well-respected poster on jwd.

  he spent much time and money to gather proof of duplicity on the part of watch tower leaders.

  marvin shilmer (not his real name) has given permission for me to put his entire essay on my website, www.watchtowerdocuments.com.
