  Tea Partiers Say They Would Absolutely Abolish Social Security

  by sammielee24 in

  please, please, please let the libertarians, republicans and their offshoot the tea party, run on this issue.

  oh my heavens what a joy it would be to line up all the runners and tell half of the americans - the vast majority of those who actually live on their social security, that they want to take it away.

  abolish it.

  Hmmm, given the horsepower of a Prius and my current car, I might as well go with a horse-drawn buggy. I'm not going electric unless it's a Tesla.

  Perhaps the Amish way isn't so bad. I wouldn't have to shave my legs or armpits and would really save on other beauty treatments. And, I have been trying to grow out my hair. Longer does seem better.

  Given their vegetarian Paradise Picture, why haven't the JWs gone after PETA?

  Think about the publicity! PETA for Jehovah!

  Finally got my memorial invitation

  by keyser soze in

  i had a message left on my cell phone letting me know about the memorial on tuesday night.

  it was some local elder whom i've never met.

  i can only guess that he got my cell number from my oldest brother.. i found it rather condescending the way he actually described to me what the memorial was, as if i'd never attended one before.

  I got mine in an e-mail, telling me that I needed to reconnect with Jehovah and what a wonderful opportunity it would be for my husband to learn about the JWs. And, as an added plus, since so many people go to Memorial, it might not even be in the KH!!

  Whoopee!!

  I declined with my silence.

  I'll drink a glass of good red wine at home and have a toast with my husband as we watch TV.

  Is Rock music satanic?

  in the following statements, rock musicians testify of an outside power that has taken over them while writing and performing rock music.

  some of them have actually identified this power as demonic: .

  Obviously, which is why many of us are here.

  We've heard Satan's Siren Song and climbed on board.

  I first heard his sweet voice at my first concert. It was REO Speedwagon. I knew then that I had to leave the grip of the JWs and become an apostate. Why?

  I wanted to R-O-C-K.

  See how simple Satan is?

  Amazes me how elders act.....

  by LoriJis in

  most of you know that my husband (iron hill) and i have been trying to do the fade from the witnesses....here's the update!

  my husband's ex wife who is disfellowshipped decides all of a sudden that she wants to get reinstated - i guess cuz we decided not to go anymore - and the guilt of their daughters dying in armageddon is killing her.

  but anyway, she asked us if we would be ok with her coming and taking the girls to the meetings on the weekends that are ours.....my husband denied.

  Sorry to hear about the treatment you received.

  Nothing surprises me about the way Elders act. Nothing.

  Except, perhaps, the thread on here which is an Elder apologizing for the way he treated everyone. That was amazing.

  My sister and dad were DFd without them being there by Elders with an agenda. So, it happens much more than the average JW realizes.
