How far is this lunacy going to go?

1. male .
2. female.

I attended a mandatory training at work regarding the gender identification issue. A person who may appear male might actually identify as female and vice versa. We were taught the proper manner in which to introduce ourselves, where one includes after ones name their pronoun. As in " hello, my name is Phoebe, my pronoun is he" thereafter you refer to Phoebe as he, him, etc. Despite the fact that Phoebe appears to be female.

Anyone have a copy of that JW poem about a child who doesn't survive Armageddon?
by Bleep Bloop ini think it was called "a mother's thoughts.
" it was a rather dreadful poem written from the viewpoint of a mom a few weeks after armageddon, reminiscing about her child that didn't survive.
in one part, the rebellious kid says, "i can take care of myself in snow, sleet or rain.

Ugh....I abhorred those "poems". Just a line that rhymes does not make real poetry. Those were just a slobbering tool to rile up emotions. Another disgusting little cult manipulation.....

No..not the control. I ignored that tactic. For me it was the stupidity of it all.....couldn't tolerate it. Listening to morons droning on about things of which they had no clue...petty gossipy types...guilting people into field service with death threats....oh, a lengthy list.

Samson and Delilah...A Hollywood movie written in Bible times
by RULES & REGULATIONS inwritten and produced by bible writers...you can't make this up!.
who needs hollywood scriptwriters when you already have a bible story that has drama, suspense, and unbelievable twists and turns?
imagine the story of a man who visits prostitutes, kills a 1,000 man army with a skull bone, kills a lion with his bare hands, loses his strength by getting a haircut, gets his eyes gouged out, works at a grain mill and tears down columns with his bare hands, killing himself and the philistines!

May 2020 Study WT - more convoluted false prophesying
by neat blue dog inthe first two study articles of the latest wt raise the usual sense of urgency with more of the same theological quackery russell would be proud of.. first up, something we've always known, the embarrassing admission that jws think they are the center of the universe:.
even though god’s servants make up only a small portion of the world’s population, they are often at the center of major world events.
because satan and his entire system have one prime objective—conquering those who serve jehovah .

Do tell....of what major events are they or have they been center?
The situation in the Middle East? The dissolution of the Soviet Union? Hurricanes, landslides, avalanches, tornadoes? Britain departure from the Euro? Mass shootings?
Quackery it is.....

Today’s Watchtower Study (December ‘19 issue
by BluesBrother in“parents train your children to love jehovah “.
the title says it all really, but par 6 has this piece of advice.. “jesus likened our time to “the days of noah,” and there is no doubt that we are living in “critical times hard to deal with.” (matt.
24:37; 2 tim.

Then they tout the last days "no natural affection" then personally prove it by shunning their non-believing offspring...effectively disowning them, banning them from existence.
No good humane advice coming from this cult.

Why are some if not most of the men in this photo grinning? Subject matter a tad unnerving for them?

They cannot be good JW's if they maintain such a close relationship with non believers. Anyone not of the religion is considered a "bad associate" who can potentially "spoil useful habits"...
Your time together no doubt is counted as field service time, unless they are not really all that into the cult. As for your kids.....you can make it clear that you do not want them to teach them anything about religion, the bible, etc......that is your prerogative as parents.
Hope this situation doesn't go awry.....
