AGAIN with the college bashing

by Pistoff in

ok so the mate took good notes at the ca and here is the newest on "higher education:.

the usual bashing of motives: those who want great wealth, prestige and seek it in a college educationcollege graduates don't always get jobs in their fieldsdrugs, drinking and sex are "rampant" at collegesthose who want to "snatch us away" are near if we go to college (isa 54)if we seek a college education, we are not spiritual mindedthe most disturbing for me was this:.

those who choose college will not get blessings from jehovahand of course there was the obligatory interview with the college graduate who disdains the education whe received.. .

Drugs, drinking and sex are "rampant" at colleges

how are these three not true?

there are some who want great wealth, etc... and love of money IS biblically wrong, if you believe that sort of thing... so yeah thats not good. Me? I just wanted to have a better job to pioneer with. Now? I want to be a teacher and have all my time to myself :)

the other two make sense....

ok so you have the remaining two.

Did you know you could get kicked out of your religion for veritably ANYTHING and be shunned by your family and friends for the rest of your life? (bring up "loose conduct" loophole)

Why I'm Happy Ted Jaracz {governing body} is dying! Comments?

by Witness 007 in

he was responsible for the child abuse mess and voted on the blood, organ transplant, nuetrality issues which killed many faithful witnesses and left others with serious mental problems.

he was from all accounts rude, arrogant and i believe he would have sacrificed witness children an an altar if he thought it would help the "mother" organisation as he called it.

he is the ultimate brainwashed freak who would step on brothers knecks just to make sure things are "theocratic.

mraimondi

i hope witness007 dies.

now.

im glad the jws stopped the bible studies @ ppls homes, but having to have a permit for it is utterly ridiculous. If this is why JWs discontinued it, it proves they are such pussies

Sad ending to a sad era ...

while i am new to this network, the evidence seems to be overwhelming that the wbts is in decline.

while many voice their pleasure at this prospect, it is in many ways sad for me:.

it is sad that so many have spent such a great quantity of their early lives supporting a cause that appears to have been a waste of time.

mraimondi

yes, yes, keep agreeing, and building up this backwards thinking, very good.

keep falling in line...

mraimondi

you have a huge chip on your shoulder because of verifiably bad things that have happened to you.

that doesnt reveal any intelligence on your part, and your attitude puts you RIGHT in line with them.

you ARE what you hate!

My grandfather drove the green bus in NYC for his whole working life. He got beat up by "niggers" he called them.

his only experience with blacks were these "niggers" - he was robbed and harrassed by them.

He applied his knowledge to an entire race due to his bad experiences.

my grandfather was racist.

you are just as bad.

I hope you die with some resolution, and not with this nastiness in your "soul".

I strongly doubt many know its "wrong" or are "cowards" --

these are projections! And reveal alot about the people saying them.
