number 5.
'forget' to announce his visit - or totally downplay it.
( this really gets 'em mad but i know some.
However I have a point which is quite disturbing really....when do they actually have sex? and whose house do they do it in?DB74
I know a CO and his wife; I sweare they did it on the stage when no one was around. She was good-looking and rather young for a CO's wife.
Payne was his name.

hey, you big boys in brooklyn.
you read this board.
i have yet another challenge for you.
Calling for a debate is affective for reaching some doubters it’s like a battle cry, rally, or call to arms. Most must realize that the WT will never answer or acknowledge such a challenge their arrogance precedes it as if they are above all with divine guidance.

i wanted to share this story.. we were (many years ago) going out in service.
i was in the car with annointed one driving, his wife and the person who had 'brought me into the faith' and my daughter.
we went through an intersection where this old man (annointed one) was not paying attention.
I think the so called anointed are treated special out of a fear motivation in most cases. They can get you from heaven very easily. That idea stems from how the congregations are, they are out to get each other.

god said his animals were "good.
but something perfect has no defects.
otherwise, they wouldn't be perfect.
The WT circular reasoning pointed out very well.
i have been around enough to recognize certain patterns in dub membership.
for instance there is a very common situation, where a dub gets df, marries a worldy promising never to return, has a kid, gets reinstated, and then we have to console some poor sob who shows up here trying to figure out what the hell just happened to his/her life.
i think i have isolated another common dub type; the weenie husband, whose wife joins, and then he joins too because his wife wears the pants and he does what he is told.
So is this fairly common in your observations? Could we put this down as a common dub classification? What would be a good name for this sad shell of a man?
Yes, Yes, and Some of them wind up with old gray dead skin. We could call them aliens

.
has anyone ever seen a situation where the wts disfellowhiped someone who is autistic, retarded or otherwise mentally challenged?.
i wonder if the elders give them more leeway knowing that they are not always capable of making decisions as well as a normal person.. .
Yes I remember a case that involved a mentally ill person. The CO stated we would be dfing the sickness to keep the cong. clean. Somehow that made it all right.

after many years of repression do you now find hard to restrain you natural feelings?
it doesnt have to be wrong as one cousin told me, you admire beauty of the sunset, the song of birds; you appreciate exotic meal and equally you can now more appreciate the natural beauty of opposite sex.
reason why im asking is because today ive met a dub from my former congdubgration who immediately assumed i was "immoral".
What makes you think I didn't have one while I was in?
HCM (Just kidding of course.)
at one of the last bookstudies i ever attended i heard a comment that really struck home to me how desperate these people really are getting, to the edge of insanity.
an older woman commented, "you can tell the end is coming.. its in the air.. you can feel it.. there is something in the air.. times are just.. different" and the whole time she was manically glancing around the room.
the conductor agreed with her.
It's just more of the same type of "group think" and paranoid pressure as always. Call it what you like, get as animated as you like it still doesn’t make it happen. I can still remember that same sentiment and it makes me cringe with disgust now.
HCM
regret, anger frustration?
how about sadness, sorrow, sympathy, understanding, even yearning!.
it can be quite confusing at times.
I guess I feel compulsive. The other day a slow moving vehicle going by my driveway was a former fellow elder in service. I quickly yelled/blurted out "pedophile" then giggled.

a lot of people here have posted their photo's, but i think the majority haven't... i sometimes wonder when reading posts on here, what person making those posts must look like, not that i want to see their photo, i just find it interesting... i recently got to see a photo of someone i have talked to on here since i first joined, and i had to say the person looked an awful lot like i had imagined, so i wondered if anyone else wonders about things like this?
is there a particular poster you have a mental image of?
care to share it and see if the person really looks like what you think they look like?
