  Would Elders You Knew Have Ordered Stonings If They Could Have?

  by Cold Steel in

  2. beliefs

  for those of you who used to be jws, or who are active, if the society was in charge of the earth, how many people do you think you would have seen stoned during your lifetimes?

  i realize some elders can be zealous about their work, but if they'd actually had administrative authority to have kh members stoned to death, how many elders did you know who would have been zealous enough to really order them?.

  did you know any elders who would have ordered stonings, even if the condemned people had been willing to repent?.

  Taliking about it is one thing. doing it is another.....Look at those bloody photos. Repulsive to everyone!

  We are far from the mideast and I really dont think anyone would have the stomach for it.

  But that is just my feelings.

  I dont know Borges.

  While still a JW mom, I woud have given my children blood and let god take it out on me. You would die for your children. Right?

  I cant imagine stoning someone.

  The elders I have known, I cant imagine them stoning anyone. But they would let a family member die over the blood issue.

  My mom recently told me ,,,have it in writing or you dont get blood. Funny, becasue I respect her wishes.

  I Imagine if you cant comprhend the thought , you are not like them.

  "the mess in the west"

  last night the folks on the weather channell were referring to our rainstorm as "the mess in the west.

  " they always have to have a catch phrase, don't they.

  i understand oregon is getting dumped on, up to a foot of rain in some areas, but we're closer to the southern end of the storm and they say we're just getting a few inches.. anway, isn't rain glorious?

  Weird "new world" artwork from the 2013 calendar

  my mother-in-law has a strange obsession with calendars, and orders the society's calendar each year.

  this year's calendar is especially weird.

  it features images depicting future events - in particular, the society's vision of the new world order.. i've taken the opportunity to scan some of the images for you all to check out.. please note - there are captions for each of the images, but i don't have the english language version of the calendar so i'd rather just quote the scripture used so as not to reveal which country i'm in.. .

  were you a sought after associate?.

  were you often invisible?.

  did other witnesses view you as "exemplary"?.

  As I kid , my dad being an elder , I was attached to his satus. good

  When I was married, I was attached to my husbands status. weak

  But, as a single female. invisable

  elders wife swapping question

  by unstopableravens in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i hear of these stories of elders swapping wives, i remember when i was young hearing of three elders in florida doing this and getting dfed.

  my question is this how is it possible to bring this up in conversation?

  it seems impossible, how can there be multi elders that know each other willing and the wives?

  I know for a fact that this happens. But it was just RF couples.

  The Elders knew and just let it slide. Hmmm?

  A little update on my family

  a few of you may remember that my wife had a kidney transplant early last year.

  since then the kidney has been incredible, giving her a new lease on life.

  it's really been good to see the light in her eyes that i had missed for quite a long time.. the counterpoint to this good news is the problems we have had with our son coltin.
