i was married for 20 years to a brown nosing, power hungry elder.
his headship was so overbearing i was basically a prisoner.
he would not let me associate with my dear parents (father an elder, mother a pioneer) because they were too liberal as witnesses (they did things like save seats at the assemblies when we were told not to).
Its just ignorant assholes on a power trip playing god games and trying to emulate 2000 year old social morals of the ancient Israelites.
A complacently stupid thing to try and do in this day and age but there you have it.
Sorry you had to go through with such personal abuse by your ex-husband and the Great and Benevolent Asshole JWS,
but these things happen within organized religion and it happens a lot within many other religions as well.
the recent threads by pistoff got me thinking that some youtube vids of the hard line positions being taught from the platform would be pretty cool.
if you're already going, why not get us some documentation .
of course it might already be up on http://www.jwproclaimers.org/ for all i know.. it's a shame you don't know what conventions the gb is going to show up at because it really would be good to get those guys on tape no matter what..
Yes I am, but first I'm going to get a full frontal lobotomy beforehand so I
can comprehend everything smoothly and clearly.
Every District Convention is just a revision of last years transcribed bullshit mostly to support a new piece of literature created by the publishing house
called the WTS. It all was started by C.T. Russell when he rented a hall to give a talk to only after his speech sell his literature and to see
if anyone would like to buy and sell his publishings........as evidence it obviously worked even to this day, a true genius of a salesman.
masturbation isn't directly mentioned in the bible but neither is smoking.
many of the reasons given for disfellowshipping smokers seem to also apply to masturbation: a form of uncleanness, a defilement of the flesh, letting an addictive thing become king over us, a form of covetousness.. why are occasional, habitual smokers disfellowshipped and shunned, yet chronic masturbators, of which the organisation is of course replete, do not even get a slap on the wrist (excuse the pun)?.
yadda.
For some men playing god is fun and it very empowering and it increases their personal stature and identity of who they are,
this is mostly the reason we have so many religions established in the world today, the one we're more familiar with of course is the JWS.
on may 19th, theodore jaracz had a stroke.
he's in very serious condition in the hospital.. that's all the information i have for now.. barb.
You've been authorized , really now from who ?
This is the cleanest and most honest site that discuses the corruption of the JWS and the WTBS.
Your fear mongering trite does nothing but reveal the brain washing control the JWS have implemented into your intellect and moral conscience.
TJ was just head director of this corrupt corporation that has killed thousands people including many children.
The blood of those children's lives is now on your hands Melita just as much as Ted's , have a nice sleep tonight.
roll call, just as it is written i am not afraid what can man do to me.
my name is shane draney i live in ogden utah, i am supposed to be going to the roy city congregation but i am not going to so there!
but you never know since i was raised in it, its been hard to shed drinking the cool aid.. .
Positive step Shane you know of what a trap the JWS are, it takes intelligence to not put your foot in that trap
intelligence you may actually possess

Is that guy still ticking ?
sheesh...... I'm going to hospital where he's staying with a blow horn and some fire crackers !
Sorry I just view GB members as the worst thing against humanity, I have no respect for them at all.
Whenever I need to reconfirm my heartfelt feelings I just look back at that cover of the AWAKE magazine,
the one about the JW children who committed suicide by not taking a blood transfusion and they were pictured
on the front cover. The JWS snare and trap didn't just cause an disturbance in their lives it actually killed them.
today i accidentally ordered a lunch sandwich that had bacon on it.
it's been a very long time since i've eaten bacon and i was shocked at just how good it is!
it must be true: everything is better with bacon!.
You cant beat a BLT on whole wheat bread with lots of Mayo, but I don't think its heart healthy so don't eat too much of it.
Have a BLT during sex it might prolong the pleasure a little further, the guys know what I'm talking about
By the way when you do have a BLT try a tall glass of chocolate milk with it, they go well together.

Rules rules I shun rules, this Sunday I'm going to my old Hall and masturbate in the back row
during the talk and find out what happens.
i'm new to this forum and am also sacolton's wife.
alot of you already know about me because he's talked about me on here before...even has posted pictures, at which he incurred my wrath upon my discovery.
anyways...i'm about to submit my letter of disassociation to my local congregation and i thought i would share it.
In any case Yippy let us know how the whole thing goes........all the best !
we all know wt's view of "apostates"and disfellowshiped persons.
they grap from the old testament quotes that "god's people, isralites" stone to death the evil doers, even the unobedient children.
the first one to cast the stone was a close relative, parents, brothers, sisters.
Good point Ziddina
Sometimes reality is so far and away for some !
If one reads the bible carefully they would find that Jehovah the god of the Israelites was
probably the most evil and violent of the gods in all human history.
Maybe thats why the JWS are so cruel, they hold him up as a role model
