went to the movie theatre over the weekend to take in jack ryan (not bad) and saw the trailer for "noah" (russell crowe and a solid cast) whats the bet the dubs will be given a rule encouraged to examine their own consciences when attending this movie.

from what i hear its fairly true to the genesis account, but hey its hollywood with cgi at their disposal.. .

my guess is they will not be allowed to go until the gb 2.0 attend a screening at loews cineplex, grab some popcorn and pop and give it their blessing..

Tell his wife and never ever ever, did I say ever? - have anything to do with him ever, ever, ever again. Hopefully you deserve better. Hopefully you won't be so dumb as to be taken in by a low-life like this again. Hopefully ...

trying to convince my wife not to confess...

by wafflesandpancakes in

during our engagement, we fooled around and touch each other down there.

it's not a "tap" but definitely is not "stimulation".

i tried to convince my wife, who, after 5 years of marriage, strangely felt guilty all the sudden, that its not do called porneia.

TTATT family blow out

by redvip2000 in

for those of you who have a minute to read this, here is a report from my family trip.. i was in florida for the holidays visiting my older sister and family, along with my parents which were also visiting.. although i've had conversations with my mother about the organization, my sister and her family had no idea of my position in regards to the (un)truth - perhaps because we live far away from each other.

i knew the day was coming.... on my second day there, the whole family was sitting around bs-ing about different stuff, and as usual my mother starts with the "world is getting worse by the day" conversation, followed by approving nods and smart remarks from the rest of the family.

i then politely told them that this was not true, that in fact the world has never been better.

I occasionally point out that the world seems to have got better in that not nearly so many die in wars each year since 1944/45 and does that mean that things are getting better?

it includes some nice pictures.... .

Wouldn't it be "thrilling" for the redundant branches to be turned into Jah-Jireh nursing homes?

Oh no! That would mean serving the elderly witnesses that donated and hung on every pronouncement made over the last 50 years!

Please don't take the mick....but I got disfellowshipped for kneeing an elder in the nads

by outinthemeadows in

an elder in my congregation got on my nerves because he kept putting his arm around me and i'd asked him to stop.

a few weeks later he did the same thing again so i used my knee against his micro-penis.

a judicial committee was formed even though i was being sexually harrassed by this octapus of an elder.

Did you appeal? If you didn't then you really "Knee"-ded to ....

January 2014 Watchtower Study "Why God Organization Kicked Older Bethelites Out Of Bethel To Save Money(Avoid Bankruptcy)"

by frankiespeakin in

paragraph 1 & 2:.

we all enjoy life even now due to jehovah's tender mercies, for if it were not for his slowness to anger all humans would not have lived into this 21st century of out common era.

even those crippled severly cling to life thus demonstrating the will of humans to live even in adversity.

Para 4

"Some brothers" felt that Jah-Jireh nursing homes in the UK was a Korah-like going against Jehovah's great chariotlike organization, a distraction from the preaching work that was to end in our 20th Century errr ... our time. However, the faithful and discreet slave's allowing this to be set up by Korah-like brothers and (gasp) sisters without disfellowshipping them proved to be both wise and discreet. Why? Because now we luv the internet and hate MAN printing presses and are kicking to the kerb those poor saps who trusted that we errr ..."some brothers" were right about the generation that saw 1914 not passing away, we have to cover our asses somehow. *

Q. Para 4 How do "some brothers" cover their asses while "some brothers" did the right thing? (Matt 12:37)

*foot note: while it is not wrong for some misguided souls to give donations to Jah-Jireh direct, it is preferred that donations are made to the worldwide work where it can be directed to the most needy. (See our brochure on efficient tax giving and bequests and bear in mind that any bequest over $100,000 will be handled and personally thanked for on a shepherding call from loving elders over a latte and cookies. Make it a million bucks and the CO will turn up too!)

I wonder - why did the UK court give custody of "Sam"'s youngest child to her husband especially as he is physically abusive? Did I hear that correctly?
