a couple days ago minimus asked the question (anyone notice he's always asking questions?
me: snobbery, ignorance, flourescent lighting and hands that are shedding innocent blood.

LOL... what a great thread!!!
My turn offs are:
Liars
Theives
Manipulators
people who take improper advantage of my time, hospitality, patience
(which includes the silly woman who knocks on my door early in the morning to look for their 18 year old kid, who is never here anyways...who is also the silly woman who knocks on my door or beep the horn at 2 am looking for their 18 year old kid.... and then asks why I don't go over for tea????? Can I slap her???? Please?????)
people who don't realize when a telephone conversation has ended...
men who talk to my boobs.... I've actually named them because of this... Betty and Barb, the Boob sisters, basically mute since birth....LOL
Nosey people
People kindly inviting me to their church... How many times do I have to say thanks but no thanks...
people trying to preach anything to me... including religion, amway(which is like religion) , mary k (which is like a woman's only religion), etc... I don't want to sell your damn products okay?????
I guess that'll do for now...

i'm new to this, i've spent the past 2 years trying to pull my head out of the bs.
i've refused to live a double life - i have nothing to hide - apparently others think otherwise!
so i'm ignored - no problem, makes the bs easier to ignore.
Welcome to the board lookin...
LOL... I think I've been where you are ... not quite sure though... lol
Are ya in, or are ya out... it only matters to clarify your post...
I hope we can help you out here... there's lots to check out... and for the most part.. people here are pretty cool...

i am a "worldly" person, not of any religion and am soon to be marrying a long-term disfellowshipped jehovahs witness.
she has not been of the religion for over a decades time and seemingly her immediate family has accepted this through the years.
we've traveled across country together so she could introduce her family to me and have not had any problems.
This is the old emotional blackmail thing... it's typical really of JWs...
Whatever you do, please don't be blackmailed into becoming a witness.... the family of your bride to be is trying to get her to get back in, if she doesn't they will shun her outright... it's a tactic... a painful and manipulative one... it may hurt, but don't fall for it. She should be wise to this by now and hopefully she won't fall for it.
If you don't become witnesses, then don't expect them at the wedding... have the wedding for yourselves... and have fun! If they want to play this game then let them pay the price...
As far as living in harmony with them??? Good luck... there will always be times that they will pull the rug out from under you and you probably won't even know why.... I think "tolerance" is more the term your looking for here... and there will be precious little of it ... it depends on the individual. Witnesses are basically policed by other witnesses. It makes having any kind of normal family relationship very difficult...
I hope you do some research on this... this site is very helpful for that...
Congrats and Best wishes to both of you....

first question: who the hell is the "dove of oneness"?
second question: what the heck is "nesara"?
third question: why isn't this on cnn or other mainstream media?
Well, I checked the website and looked at some links... I can't establish anything concrete, there is a lot of what seems to be religious rhetoric...
near as I can figure.. this is like a religion... based on alien and human co operation... in an attempt to overthrow the illuminati and save the earth from destruction....
It reminds me of the Scientologists.... very Hubbard ish...
Strange indeed...

please provide proof that elders are not appointed by holy spirit or are especially giftd with more holy spirit than anyone else.
okey dokey... I'll give it a go...
1. They believe lies...
2. They lie
3. They give the worst advice
4. They follow the worst advice
5. They don't love the Farkel (hadda throw that in)
6. They treat women like sh*te...
7. They disfellowship people... defend the guilty and punish the innocent...
8. They wouldn't know the truth if it fell on em...
9. They are witnesses
10. They are still witnesses
Ahhhhhh, well, I feel better now... of course this applies only in my personal experience...

moral.
it is a response to an injustice (a moral wrong).. it is a turning to the "good" in the face of this wrongdoing.
goodwill.
Hi SP
I especially appreciate #3.. the application of forgiveness... moral response and mutual respect...
Thank you for posting this...I'm writing it down in my quote book...
