picture yourself, it's the last day of a three day district assembly.
your sitting in a near full to capacity football stadium.
people are eagerly looking forward to the final talk.
Mine involves the WTS losing its tax-exempt status for valid reasons, having most of its money dry up, and having just a handful of crazy-ass loyalists retreat to the Warwick compound to wait out the End of Days in a slow, pathetic decline over the next half-century or so.
Vidiot That is not a fantasy - that is so going to happen....I believe they are actually planning for it as a contingency
thursday, march 3. they were uneducated and ordinary men.—acts 4:13.. in recent years, the spiritual instruction provided by jehovah’s organization has reflected an increased emphasis on simplicity and clarity.
consider three examples.
first, there is the simplified edition of the watchtower.

i got my fingers burnt last time i copied a post from reddit, but this one made me so mad i had to show you guys.
i think its possible that the witnesses antagonism was exaggerated in his child's mind, never-the-less any nastiness to a sick child is beyond the pale.
the hospital i trained in lost nearly every last one of its 500 haemaphilliacs to aids - i think around 30 survived from this era.http://www.modernluxury.com/san-francisco/story/when-doctors-need-doctors-after-dodging-death-sentence-looking-cure.

for me, the dead giveaway is this.
jesus wrote nothing.. stop and think about that.. if jesus were the authentic messiah, his ministry would not simply be local.. his instructions, his mission, the details of his teachings would be too precious to risk leaving it in the hands of "men unlettered (illiterate) and ordinary (blue-collar yokels).".
jesus, were he the one and only hope of mankind, would be absolutely certain to write down with great simplicity and specificity the exact owner's manual necessary to rescue mankind.. never happened!.
Myelaine....2 things...
You are persecuting a fellow christian because he is showing empathy and understanding for someone who has been spiritually abused...you leave an unpleasant taste in the mouth
Also...can you choose to believe that grass is purple ?? When the facts as you understand them lead you to disbelieve something you cannot choose to do so.

I agree entirely with your conclusions, but a trifle heavy on "would's"
Like Hansel and Gretel, sometimes I too get lost in the "would's" :)
LOL!!!😂Terry I think you're Jesus!! You're a sight smarter 'n him at any rate!!!!
we saw it with raymond franz.
but do you think we could ever see one of the current gb members or future ones, make the same choice?.
to leave, and expose it..
DOC They were vetted long and hard. They are Company Men. They live like kings and they are not about to abdicate their throne.
Reading this just made me wonder if Ray Franze was the exception because he got in under the radar being the nephew of a current member therefore not subject to the usual scrutiny?
mum phoned last night to see how we all are.
after fifteen years away from meetings and my old jw life you'd think my fade could be called 'successful' and for the most part it is.
.. my resentment at being lied to and having wasted over thirty years of my life has left me like a glass of water full to the brim, it only takes a tap to make a mess.
Mark of cane otherwise I Will Storm into the room with apostate eyes and unleash hell on them
I just saw this, hilarious!!!

Our friends do the same though - they got their dog before they had kids but really it's their first child and he's "big brother" to the kids (so protective / patient / playful).
Me too...ours was very much " big sis"
