So I just got called a narcissist

by sabastious in

my family knows that i post on this forum (they have a packet of print outs of topics i have started) and they know about my videos on youtube.. they have made a demand that i cease all internet communication with the apostate community and then they will have me back.. i have refused.. they say i am a narcissist because i am ignoring the feelings of my family because they are very hurt by the things i am doing on the internet and speaking out against the religion.. interesting since they had to search out my posts and videos to gather evidence of apostasy.. -sab.

If it was a witness, isn't that like calling the kettle black?

CAN SOME ONE EXPLAIN TO ME.... re:elder hides serious sin=no df, no removal?

by ?me? in

jw
friends

that is one part of the new ks 10 that is crazy... i don't have the bbs skills to paste the exact words, but.... .

we all have heard that if you are an elder (or ms, i guess) if you have a serious sin, including adultery, come to light "a few years ago, or a number of years ago" you can get a free pass and remain an elder basically as long as no one else knows?

or you "maintain the respect of the cong" or you years of service show that jehovah has forgiven you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They are loosing more and more Elders, MS's, and pioneers so to do away with that would lead to less warm bodies to fill those positions. They are just that warm bodies cause they ain't qualified to lead.

Poked a pioneer in more than a year,

Get a pass for that piece of a**.

Abused a child you liked,

forgot for awhile that's alright.

I gave up single sisters years ago,

said elder bob with glow.

I am blessed by God as you all know.

Keep the elder body together

Because we will all be together forever.

Wife swapping for years in this congo here,

but as we aged that kind of fades,

and we're all ok now after these many years.

Why the JW's mental image of Paradise is a pipe dream

by Sour Grapes in

yesterday during the witchtower study, every one was.

talking about how wonderful paradise will be with no food.

shortages, perfect weather, no pollution, no disease, and be.

It is quite a large sized carrot.

They are told to meditate and see yourself in paradise, to make it real to you. Well, if the GB knew that is was going to come then they would prepare the R&F much more differently than that.

Any body with half a brain would know that after a all out war between good an evil there will be plenty to clean up with little to no comforts.

It just shows that they GB really knows the truth about the "troof". If they really believed then the prep would be much more like some of the cults like the Branch Dividians, guns and all.

Thought stopper: "We are the only ones doing what Jesus did."

by sabastious in

this is one of the top thought stopping phrases here.. it invalidates any argument presented against the organization.

it basically says this:.

"it doesn't matter who did what in the org, it doesn't matter how bad things get, we are the only ones doing what jesus did, therefore all errors and corruption are disregarded as we await the end.".

When he sent out the 70 pairs of men, he told them to stay at the homes and teach them. Then they returned to Jesus to tell him their experiences. Then one would assume that they went home. They didn't go back out into the ministry.

Even then they would be called missionaries because they stayed in the territory.

I sound like a freaking witness.

DMCA Complaint from The WatchTower for links to KS-10 'Shepherding' book

by Simon in

yes, that's right, they really do not like people being able to read that book so they wanted links to it removed (it appears they have also been going after the hosts of the content itself as well).. unfortunately, i had to removed the links (which were dead anyway when i checked) and i'd ask that people don't re-post them (sorry).

i'm sure there are lots of alternative ways for those with the information to get it to those who need it.. here are the discussions on the book:.

I tend to agree with Dan. When the borg is pulling the very fabric of your being apart, i.e. your family, without taking into consideration that you are a good provider, good spouse, and a great father you tend to be a little defensive.
