Watchtower Investments.

by gumby in

hello my dear brothers and sisters, gumby here.. here's a good read about jehovah's loving organisation.. http://www.geocities.com/wtgreed/article.htm.

There are some grammar problems with this story that the author might want to fix if he/she wants to sound credible, most notably:

"None of the Watchtower’s "Sister Companies" fabricate neither bombs nor ammunition of any kind."

It should be of course: None of the Watchtower’s "Sister Companies" fabricate either bombs or ammunition of any kind.
Since the sentence starts with the word "none," the double negatives "cancel each other out" so that you end up saying the exact opposite of what you mean.

Sunday's public talk...

by kzjw in

went with the wife this week for the public talk (i simply will not sit through the watchtower study), the subject was about how poorly governments are taking care of thier people in disasters.

the speaker(who had a british accent) started by saying "burma(myanmar) had 2 tsunamis and the government sent flat screen tv's as aid for the refugees..." needless to say this dillweed lost me for the next 30 minutes of his talk about how man can't care for god's people.

i left during the study as always and returned at the end of the meeting, still burning over the glaring lie told by this "brother" which by the way no one even batted an eye in the congregation!

One of the last meetings I went to the brother said that it was the fault of people that natural disasters happen, and he gave the example of people living in Bangladesh where they KNOW there are lots of floods but they live there anyway which apparently, according to him, makes them accountable before Jehovah for being unwise in their choice of where to live. So if everybody moved out of Bangladesh to where there were no floods, there would be no major disasters there. I approached the brother afterward and asked him if Jehovah would hold him accountable for living where he knows major earthquakes occur (Los Angeles.)

I thought my Great Pumpkin Defence would garner much praise and laughter, as well as being a really good analogy. Anyone want to pat me on the back?

Automatic reinstatement if teaching gets reversed?

by Fatfreek in

let's say your spouse admitted to having sex with animals, you went to the elders and they told you that you were not free to remarry -- but you went ahead, divorced the scumbag, and remarried someone else.

you, of course, got disfellowshipped.

since then, the society reverses its position.

Good point lrkr. Now, how long are you going to keep me in expectation?

Long list= Brothers who have ripped you off! $$$ has this happened to you?

by Witness 007 in

1. the elder i was in a bissness with decided a hand shake was not a contract, and paid me $500 dollars instead of the $3,000 he should have....i felt so stupid, but quit with him and treated him like a disfellowshiped person since....also he would pay me half a days wage when i worked from 8am till 3pm ???????

when told about this he said sorry but "couldn't work out how to re-emburse the lost hours.".

2. my elderly mum sold some furniture when moving, to a sister who promised to pay from her single parent pension in small installments........nope!

I hurt my knee on the job working for a contractor named John from Azusa. His wife accused me of making it up. Turned out he didn't have worker's comp insurance. I couldn't even sue him. He hired only illegal aliens, other than me.

How many left - then went back?

by AK - Jeff in

i became 'weak' in the early 80's after being treated badly by a body of elders.

i had not sinned.

quite the opposite.

I was out free and clear, no DFing until I met a stupid bitch JW in a college class and thought like an idiot that god was calling me back. Fuck, what an idiot I was! Then I got DFd, when I never wanted to go back in the first place.

Adultery of a JW

by hurt by JW in

i have a question for jw's.

i have a problem with a jw .

its been going on for a year now.

If you too weak to confront that bitch and slap her down then you don't deserve your husband. Where's your fight for christ's sake? Grow some balls. Turn her in to the church. That'll fix her wagon. Take her family from her like she took yours from you.
