    So children go to hell, but angels let you pop back to save them. Cool.

    I blame Red Lobster.

    Great topic Blondie.

    The 'slave' between the Apostle John and CT Russell was so discrete that nobody knows who they were, where upon since the Watchtower started they've been identified and have basically never shut up about it.

    If the organisation is Jesus' True Church, what was Jesus doing the previous 1900 years or so?

    i wonder how a jw would answer this?

    perhaps eggnogg would like to give it a stab.

    he seems to know it all!

    Shun Run/Walk 2012

    i am planning a public awareness event for april 1, 2012, i calling "shun run/walk 2012" to draw attention to shunning policies of jehovah's witnesses.

    i use to help out as a moderator on the ex-jehovah's witness recovery forum on yuku, so this is a cross post from that site.

    what you'll see below is a letter i have sent to "sdb:ssy", the otherwise anonymous jw author from us branch who wrote me.

    dear friends,.

    it has been a long time since i have posted.

    time heals much pain, and finally, my family and i have been able to move on with our life outside of jw land.. many of you became our friends, our support system, and you know very well our exit story...we were labeled, slandered and disfellowshipped for having questions regarding the date 607. we sent out letters exposing the elders and circuit overseer to over 200 families.

    Exhort the audience "on the basis of love," particularly when considering the last section directed toward
    inactive ones

    followed by

    We do not know how long Jehovah will offer reconciliation (2Co 5:18-20; w98 12/15 17-18 pars. 9-11)

    We do know that destruction of the wicked is soon to come [Read 2 Peter 3:11, 12]

    Too funny. Basically 'lovingly' tell the inactive that unless they get their ass into gear and get out preachifying Sky Daddy gonna kill them SOON.

    Clear distinction of people on JWN

    this has been an interesting science project to say the least.

    here is what i have learned:.

    you have about 6 types of people posting on jwn, they all fit into a profile.. #1 you have people like me that ran the race, exemplified conduct while in the jw cult and learned through observation that there was a severe disconnect between truth, and the jw cult's statements.

    #9 Self absorbed assholes who pigedon hole people into narrowly defined catagories randomly so they can feel smart

    Yup, I was going to say that.

    Also people who struggle with everything and have delusions are not 'sociopaths'. Do you even know what that means?

    Draconian Rules for Attending "Special Convention"

    british dubs are invited to attend a special convention next summer in dublin , irish republic.

    o k, this kind of trip has been done many times before.

    however i have never seen such a crude and rigid set of rules that would apply to their own people going on a trip, at their own expense of course.
