The cult mentality seems to give them the impression of unaccountably and isolation form Satans big bad world. Flights from USA to Sydney typically take around 14 to 15 hours. Not enough time for even a glance at the transcripts???? So glad none of my cash is paying her fees anymore!

I watched Mr. Jackson last night with my super cult minded parents
by Magwitch ini have seen some ask on this site how the active jw's are handling what is happening in australia.
here is my little experience from last night........ my parents were baptized in the late 30's as children and have never faltered in their determination to survive the great tribulation and live forever in paradise (even though they actively associate with all their df'ed kids).
my father is still actively serving as an elder and my mother has always been by his side.

I hold my elderly parent responsible for the fear that he instilled in us fear of worldy people, education, celebrations, thinking and reasoning as intelligent autonomous human beings and fear of reprisal when we disappointed the organisation.......My parent wholly owned body and soul by the organisation and is not able to love me unconditionally which really leaves me parent less, him childless (although he did tell me that if I wouldn't love jehovah and his organsation he could find plenty of spiritual daughters in the organisation) and now that he is a very old man will the organisation look after him when he is very frail the organisation??? Since they are happy to keep in the spirit of the two witness rule may be they will apply kings 1.1.1Now King David was old, advanced in age; and they covered him with clothes, but he could not keep warm. 2So his servants said to him, "Let them seek a young virgin for my lord the king, and let her attend the king and become his nurse; and let her lie in your bosom, that my lord the king may keep warm." 3So they searched for a beautiful girl throughout all the territory of Israel, and found Abishag the Shunammite, and brought her to the king.… Another theocratic use of young women hot water bottle! -

going back to the blood bit Stewart said 'one time jws at one time would not accept whole blood and fractions [ wt61" jws will not accept whole blood or fractions of blood"], but then fractions became acceptable in 2000. Jackson.. we do not go past the things written". What happened to 'let your yes be yes' was that not 'written'. Who does one say got that wrong, man[gb], or Holy Spirit. mr possum -

Preparing for Friday's Feeding Frenzy
by Esse quam videri inmany hundreds and perhaps thousands of people, worldwide, are eagerly waiting for the questioning of geoffrey jackson at the australian royal commission on institutional response to child abuse.
this is the day that many have hungered for.
finally, a member of the governing body being questioned and compelled to make full disclosure, to the best of his knowledge, the very best of his knowledge.

"And what happened next was simply unbelievable!"
by Terry ini always sit in the same spot, just outside starbucks in a vestibule area with a table in the air-conditioned space.
i say "always," but not today.. somebody with two laptops and a table filled with business ledgers was in "my" favorite spot!.
so, i took a tiny wooden table inside the coffee shop on a long padded bench next to 3 other identical tables.. as the clickbait banner ads like to say: "and what happened next was simply unbelievable!".

Pedophiles in Good Standing
by UnDisfellowshipped inhere is a very good quote you can use against the society from a watchtower publication that everyone knows: .
you can live forever in paradise on earth book, pages 187-188: .
"if church members who gamble, get drunk or do other wrongs are permitted to remain in good standing within their church, what does this show?

Smiddy, if I had been an obedient/submissive elders wife an never permitted to see the "Elders eyes only" books I'd be a bit pissed off by now...a worldly/catholic drip under pressure has beaten them to it. Great point !!!!
