In the minds of the WT/GB if an unmarried couple are alone together for more than two seconds, all their clothes fall off and they are at it like rabbits in no time.
Oh, the strange sexual fantasies that a life cloistered in Bethel brings on !

3260 yr. old needs chaperon????
by red21 inso, a female relative of mine who is 60 but inactive in the truth had their mate dying in the hospital.
the older sister + husband and old brother (of dying man) (active witnesses) come to visit and stay at their home.
the old sister is staying at the hospital around the clock for the duration of the visit but tells her sister-in-law that she must have a chaperon at the house if she is going to be there with her husband and her dying husbands older brother?

That is a wonderfully written and well reasoned letter ! if only JW's will read it and take its message on board !
Just one gripe from a super pedant, you might want to change the spelling of "discrete" to "Discreet", personally I don't care that much, but JW's will find one mistake and reject the rest.
I am sure the G.B think of themselves as "discrete" but the scripture has the similar word with a different meaning i.e "discreet", which of course, they are also not.

Funny how ,as an active JW ,I would have seen this letter as reasonable and right. I now view it as part of their sinister plan to keep a lid on the paedophile problem.
That was , and is, their only concern, minimise bad publicity. The victims do not matter, implementing an active programme to protect the vulnerable was, and is, of no interest. The WT/JW religion is a Paedophile Paradise indeed.

Going back to a Kingdom Hall
by hotspur inpart of my 'rebirth' after my leaving jws was to rediscover and undo the 38 missing years of my love of music.. before i was baptised i was playing a trumpet in bands and orchestras... then came the empty years (we all know the stories).. long story short, i relearned my instrument through a music school.
from there i joined a brass band, but recently we moved house and it was some way from the band i played in.
so, i searched for a new band and found one more local to me... they even have their own band room.

A little example of how severely the contributions for the Society are drying up
by sir82 injust a little tidbit from the congregation i attend..... the congregation has approximately 120 publishers.. well over 1000 magazines per month are picked up, not to mention all the books, brochures, and tracts that are picked up.. there was a "local needs" part on the service meeting recently, asking for more contributions.. it seems our congregation has averaged just about $300 per month contributions to the "worldwide work" over the past year.. .
assuming 1500 magazines / month, that's just 20 cents per magazine - and that completely ignores all other literature that is picked up.. the last price the magazines had, 20+ years ago, was 25 cents per issue.
with inflation that would have been about 50 cents each now.. just another sign of how severely the contriutions to the society are drying up..... .

How long before the design of KH's and Assy. Halls is modified so that they are even easier to sell ?

life of Job
by raxxxx injust wondering if that book made anyone think about god in the bad light?
it seems to me after thinking about it that it was god who was all in all responsible for jobs suffering.
satan was only the vessel but at the end of the day it was because of god job has been suffering and what is worse it was also him who was feeling sorry and repentat for something that he didn't do?

I agree that Yahweh doesn't come out of the story all that well, if you take it as literal truth, which it plainly is not.
This is an allegorical story, an extended parable, vary ancient in origin probably, certainly pre-dating by hundreds of years the kind of worship that the Jewish faith evolved into after the exile, probably pre-dating the formation of the nation of Israel.
Having said that, even just drawing lessons from it as a parable, Yahweh is still a bit of a dick.

Notorious A**hole Christopher Hitchens Thrown Into The Eternal Flames Of Gehenna
by Philadelphia Ponos inthe first time i heard of christopher hitchens was today when his named was mentioned multiple times in the comment section of a youtube video.
after reading a brief summary of his life, it became clear that this guy was a complete douche-bag.
a very arrogant sarcastic bigoted f**k who looked down on everyone who didn't share his beliefs.

Hitchens was a wordsmith, he wrote well, he could actually use the English language to good effect, and he could spell !
Where does that leave your poor efforts at communicating PPonos ? down in the gutter, whilst the stuff Hitchens wrote is on a pedestal, revered.
