  What will you do when the Great Tribulation Begins?

  by Malkiel in

  2. experiences

  i've always wanted to ask this question to those that have decided to leave the organization.. what will you do when the great tribulation begins?.

  right now folks, a lot is happening in the political world.. gordon brown (prime miniter of england) last week gave a speech to the un stating that it is time for the un to step in and solve the world's problems, (specifically mentioning the economy and hunger crisis worldwide.).

  barrack obama is shaping up to be the next president, a fellow who sure knows how to persuade and lead great crowds.

  What was your saddest day as a JW?

  i had many days like this but i will never forget the time that a 'prominent elder' publicaly declared that he wants to see the worldly people die at armaggeddon.

  "i hope that i can look out the window & watch it all happening".

  i went home and thought; 'wtf am i a part of here'?

  My baptism. I had to do it in order to be "accepted" into my wife's family. Sad that I sold my soul to an organization.

  The letter of changing the book study

  by JWRESEARCH in

  i had a second and a third chance to read the famous letter.. here a few details.

  it starts by saying we are in the last days and those who oppose are making things more difficult.

  adds that the gb wants to follow the 1st century example (not to add more burden) and quotes acts 15:5,28. mention the raise of gas price (and the dificulties of some families) and suggest to use the free night to family study.

  Even more silly is that this doesn't take effect until January 2009 ... I guess Jehovah has a 8 month delay.

  So, is the GB concerned for the R&F now or eight months from now?

  Okay, so let's keep up the burden for eight more months, Brothers.

  Crazy!

  ... and yet, at the Assemblies we are treated to hear stories how one sister walked 30 miles to attend meetings. It's sickening to hear how they use the excuse for high gas prices (they haven't seen anything yet ... $150/barrel soon!). Where's the faith in Jehovah?

  AND SINCE WHEN IS A NIGHT OF SPIRITUAL FOOD A BURDEN?!!!

  Oh, the hypocrisy!

  Fact: JWs interpretation of Mathew 24 is beyond repair.

  Don't forget John 1:1:

  "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

  No brackets should ever be inserted to understand the meaning of this scripture.

  penis theft panic hits city...thu apr 24, 2008 9:47am edtby joe bavier.

  kinshasa (reuters) - police in congo have arrested 13 suspected sorcerers accused of using black magic to steal or shrink men's penises after a wave of panic and attempted lynchings triggered by the alleged witchcraft.. reports of so-called penis snatching are not uncommon in west africa, where belief in traditional religions and witchcraft remains widespread, and where ritual killings to obtain blood or body parts still occur.. rumors of penis theft began circulating last week in kinshasa, democratic republic of congo's sprawling capital of some 8 million inhabitants.

  The CDC has been talking to Ron Jeremy as a possible host for an antidote.

  I might try to grab a few of those antidotes myself.
