during one co visit to our congregation, i was asked to work with co as i was a new publisher.
after some ordinary visits, we entered a house where there was only a lady who proved be well-educated.
though it was my turn, i told co to present the good news.
Great story, thanks!

for almost 12 years now, i have been coming to this site on a regular basis and in the last 5, i “faded out”.
i never regretted this and never will.
unfortunately though, yesterday, i realized that, until i can publically tell all my old acquaintances why i have left, i will never be truly free.
I left a few times 😐

i'm pimo, very much against disfellowshipping, and going to a meeting leaves me feeling confused and angry at the best of times.
except an elder asked me on thursday night if i can start giving a ride to a disfellowshipped woman because she lives near me and nobody else from the hall lives in my village.
it seems the elder and his family who have been giving this woman a ride for the past six months can no longer stomach the time it takes them to go out of their way.. i thought all normal publishers weren't to have any contact with disfellowshipped people?
Maybe you are on the soon to be MS or Elder list?

g's lovely and loyal to the organization mother (due to many reasons), gave an unexpected reaction when i asked "how is brother w. our favorite co and friend since her early youth years?
is he still alive?".
she reacted "he is still alive, but sidelined like the rest of the old gard.
G's lovely and loyal to the organization mother (due to many reasons), gave an unexpected reaction when I asked "how is brother W. our favorite CO and friend since her early youth years? Is he still alive?"
She reacted "He is still alive, but sidelined like the rest of the old gard. For the younger ones. Or does that sounds too negative, does it?"
Never ever heard this kind of reactions from a most peacefull person.

so this week's midweek meeting video about stumbling others has lett spouting and gurning rubbish again.. if you can't take the whole 9 minutes go from 5:50 to get the context and 6:45 for the "beard" mention.. https://youtu.be/ezv1ici5cwo.
oh, well - at least they shoot themselves in the foot with this doublespeak.
single.
So sad. They keep playing the sect scenario.

dear friends,.
with all the jevanka story's at the moment, i got this morning the bad perception that jw.org is playing nice guy with al this maffia money that they got selling their property in brooklyn.. money earned by the buyers with bad deals, political tricks and maffia connected asshole's.. this money is funding all the nice multimedia at conventions and broadcasting.. maybe a nice topic to discuss at the jw chart at the streets on our towns.. follow the money.
it's all about money.. confronting them with this dirty money laundry is a strong argument.. what do you think about this???.

Follow the money. It's all about money.
Confronting them with this dirty money laundry is a strong argument.
What do you think about this???

imagine yourself still sitting at a kingdom hall meeting and turn to the book of mark 7: 21-23. the sayings of jesus are really profound.
the scripture makes you think, reflect, enters your heart and produces results.. today, you have your modern day governing body ( who supposedly are the mouthpiece for jesus and jehovah and provide spiritual food for the 8 million followers).
if jehovah really sends his holy spirit upon these seven men, is this silly and petty message they can come up with?
Give him a Europe visit and let's hear what his opinion is about Dutch jw youth in tight clothes. Leather; jeans etcetera,
High skirts you see it all here.
It could be hos last visit due to medical reasons.

"i've never felt better".douglas fairbanks,sr.,actor.. "iam about to----or i am going to-----die;either expression is correct".dominique bouhours,french grammarian.. "don't let it end like this.tell them i said something.
"pancho villa,mexican revolutionary.. "all my possessions for a moment of time!
"elizabeth 1,queen of england.. "everybody has got to die,but i have always believed an exception would be made in my case.now what?
"I will meet you again, somewere, sometime!".

in the july 1970 kingdom ministry on page 3 there appeared this announcement:
"a new circuit assembly program is scheduled to begin in september.
we believe you will find it most informative and upbuilding.
Sometimes I think jw’s were at that time part of a anti communism project funded by US government.
With the fall of communism JW.org lost her perpose.
