Getting some more help
by Cagefighter ini have talked before about what happened to me as a jw.
i was baptized at 12 and two years later i was in a judicial committee for sexual immorality after having an inappropriate relationship with an older woman.. it was handled just like any other kh would have handled it.
after a humiliating interrogation by my elder father in front of my mother, he dropped the dime on me.

Terrible thing to go through at 14. This organization has raped so many of us.

26% drop in auxiliary pioneers in "special month" between 2011 and 2012
by sir82 ini don't recall seeing this posted on this board before, my apologies if the topic is duplicated..... in april 2011 and march 2012, the gb made a "loving provision" to allow jws to sign up for the auxiliary pioneer work with only a 30 hour requirement instead of the usual 50 hours.. in 2011, in the usa, about 500,000 signed up to be auxiliary pioneers.. in 2012, per the august 2012 km, only about 370,000 signed up.. that's a 26% drop in just 1 year!.
granted, in many parts of the us, the march weather is far worse than april's.
but on the other hand, there were 5 saturdays in march 2012 - you could get your "time in" with 5 long saturdays and nothing else.. .

Outsmartthesystem...Participation trophies for everyone!
That is a brilliant idea! Give out those little plastic trophies, with an engraving saying"Aux Pioneer", as a prize at the end of the month.
That should get some of those slackers off their asses.

sisters wearing pants/trousers?
by twinkletoes inmy sister-in-law has recently gone back to the org :-(.
she has been wearing trousers (pants to us members ) now she has been told to expect a shepherding call from one of the elders about her style of dress!.
has anyone any good ideas or even scriptural comments that she could use.. .

Wearing pants equates to being equal to a man. Can't have any of that going on. We need to know our place.

Thought Reform and the Psychology of the 'Safeguard Your Heart!' 2012 Convention
by breakfast of champions into make attendance at my second district convention "mentally out" both a little more bearable and meaningful, i decided to take some notes of key points as if i were an outsider studying the thought reform methods of jehovah's witnesses.
at first, i was only going to share these notes with my therapist, but inspired by the "parsing the watchtower double-speak" thread, i figured i would share my amateur analysis with everyone.
here are some of the highlights:.

BOC...Enjoyed reading this so much, excellent analysis!
The comment "The heart naturally inclines to "bad", and is attracted to "wrong". I could not disagree more. I have been in the "world" for 6 years, and maybe I just have great friends, neighbors, workmates and family, but most everyone I know is inclined to good (Okay, there is a bad apple here and there). And attracted to wrong??? Do you think they meant that the majority are attracted to "FUN"? Which of course is "Wrong"
Anyway, thank you very much!
And many thanks to Aussie Oz for making me laugh so hard with this comment..............
Are there perhaps rumblings among the faithful with 2014 so close? I can imagine the question: has Jesus really spent one tenth of his thousand year reign doing bugger all?

Yesterday was my Son's 21st Birthday
by 00DAD inyesterday was my oldest son's 21st birthday.
as many of you know, i've been disfellowshipped for over 3 years now.
in the spring of this year i did write to the local boe and request my disfellowshipping be rescinded.

So sorry00DAD.
My oldest just turned 21 also. I do not know how I would function if I had your situation. That religion is so despicable. If ever you are in Colorado I will buy us a great bottle of scotch to share.

Did You Expect To Live Thru The Great Tribulation & Never Die At All?
by minimus ini always had my doubts about that but i was at least hopeful that all would work out as they said.
i saw so many "faithful ones" who were true believers expire before they got the prize, that i started to think it probably wouldn't happen in my lifetime.. what a bunch of suckers, huh?.
