seinfeld was a show about "nothing.
" it had no plot.
no twists.
Once GB members become a figure of ridicule to the rank and file the jig is up. They might not be yet (tho' Lett and Morris seem to be heading that way) but they are certainly an embarrassment at times. Jw.org gives jw's much more opportunity to see these guys in full flow.
Gotta love the internet.
we've had a few comments lately that show that people don't seem to fully comprehend the way moderation works or the point of it.. if someone point something that other people don't like or agree with then that is a difference of opinion.
live with it.. if someone posts something that is crude, insulting, contains bad language etc.
then it violates the posting guildelines and can and should be removed.. now, sometimes we won't immediately notice a post that should be removed.
It makes me grin to myself.
hi everyone, im begining to notice patterns of mental issues in the congregations and among the witnesses as a group.
do you think this is a trend in the entire world or is it exagerated in this organization?.
.
Loadsa whackjobs in the congs and circuits I've been in ... just sayin'
i have not attended anything jw related for over a year.... until last week when i went to our one day convention.. why you ask?.
i can do what i want i'm a grown adult.. ok...ok...so my jw childhood friend who i have not seen forever, came by for a visit.. i mentally went through the check list:.
is she pioneering and need extra time?.
So now I die and my wife remarries and I can get resurrected and go live with her and her new hubby and at night when all is quiet I can listen to them having sex in the next room. When the new scrolls are opened, will I be allowed a wank from time to time? Thought not. Perhaps I can go to the shore and find a resurrected pirate and explain to him how he needs to shave off his beard.
Or I die and my wife can have another thirty years or so giving up the opportunity to remarry in the guilt-ridden hope we can be reunited in the new system.
Gotta love the WT writers and their thoughtless drivel which has millons hanging on every word ...

346-347 mourning and funeralsfor whom?
a funeral or memorial service?
I went to a funeral about 15 years ago at the city crematorium given by a doddery jw elder who stuck to the outline.
The woman was a widow who had never been a jw but her only daughter was and she wanted a jw funeral for her mother. The crematorium had seats for about 100 people and there were about 50 there including about 25 from the congregation and some "worldly" neighbours and friends of the deceased. I sat towards the back and there were two old women who were a bit deaf sat across the aisle from me.
One of them says to the other in a loud enough voice for me to hear across the aisle "It's a good job she (the deceased) can't hear what he's saying! She'd be out that box and give him (the speaker) what for!"
i believe that most witnesses would refuse blood to show their faithfulness to jehovah's law on blood transfusions....( that sounds silly, huh?).

I did. I was 19 and legally an adult in the UK. I had the operation and (obviously) survived.

Times have changed round here - when I go to a jw funeral we get a reasonable eulogy most times. Maybe a bit about what Billy Stiff'n'dead "believed" but not much.

"it's publicly available my luvly"
Priceless!
in my most recent talk, i got counseled for using some terms that were not prefered.
for example i said "new testament" rather than "the christian greek scriptures".
i also used the term "gospel", but even worse, i made reference to the "synoptic gospels" and the "gnostic gospel".. i guess i never thought of it before, but when i looked at the societies information on the matter they always say things like, "the so-called new testament..." or "the so-called synoptic gospels..." why with all the "so-called?".
Ooops, edited for double post.

They ain't too keen on "cross" instead of "torture stake" either!
