Thruthseekeriam I couldn't agree more. Disgusting...fighting mandatory reporting??!!! They are putting these kids and their families through HELL with their stupid games and delaying tactics.... I hope the judge sees through their shit and clobbers them with the full force of the law...and WE ARE RIGHT BEHIND THEM..the righteously outraged APOSTATE ARMY!!

Prince was on the board of directors for the WTS
by Barrold Bonds ini was talking with a friend of mine who knows a few people in the home department at bethel.
apparently, prince was, as i noted in the title, on the board of directors.
he apparently was sort of a silent partner or advisor in the whole thing.

Is Larry Graham an Elder?
by ShirleyW ini think he is, but i"m not too sure.
just wondering because looking at that purple pimp outfit with hat that he wore to prince's memorial, i wonder if he ever gave a talk wearing the same outfit, when i've read here that some brothers were talked to for wearing a pastel colored shirt while giving a talk..

Prince's death is giving this message board a meltdown. It's glorious.
I'm glad. I hope it shakes things up a bit. I'm sorry for witnesses and the daggy clothes they have to wear. No wonder the African brothers And sisters and others take the opportunity to wear traditional costume.I bet Larry Graham is worth a Bob or two...same special rules apply to him too!

A Watchtower double standard: Rejection and the silent treatment.
by ScenicViewer ina recent watchtower study article shows how bad it is to be rejected over religious beliefs when olga revealed that her husband was not speaking to her because she is a jehovah's witness.. 9 in south america, olga proved loyal to god by showing respect for her husband even under trying circumstances.
for years, he expressed annoyance at her for being one of jehovahโs witnesses.
he abused her emotionally, insulted her, refused to speak to her, and threatened to take the children and leave her.

I thought witnesses believe that a building is just four walls and a roof ( hence the term kingdom " Hall") ....emphasis placed on what is in a worshipers HEART not the building they pray in....hence touring a Cathedral or going into a church to support a spouce should be no problem as you don't veiw the building as sacred at all.
God wouldn't give a monkeys if he had any sense.

. I'd rather have a buffalo take a dump in my ear
LOL! I have to remember that one!
The only reason I would move now is if you have elders you really like or have known you many years- since childhood for instance, who may feel more responsible for you...
Moving to a foreign language Cong may help...language confusion may help and you are less likely to form relationships if you can't speak the language...

Why bring God when you can do it yourself?
by elbib inwhen under temptation, one can easily deflate it by simply changing his thoughts and choosing his associations wisely.
(philippians 4:8, 9; 1 corinthians 15:33) then why did jesus teach us to pray to god: โlead us not into temptationโ?
(mathew 6:13) .

Thank you David_Jay for your in depth and informative posts - it drives me mad that the Witnesses base their whole theology on a book ( Daniel) that the Jews don't even consider a PROPHET! They are considered part of the " writings" in Judaism . -

Did Jesus really suffer? Really?
by purrpurr inso over the course of three days he had a trial which doesn't seem to have bothered him much.
he got whipped ok that would have been agony and then put on a torture stake/ cross/ whatever yes that would have been hell.
but he was on it for a day and the whole thing lasted for three days.

And I fail to see how Jehovah " gave" his son...three Earth days to God must be less than a millisecond to us...he knew he was getting him back anyways...any mother who waves her son off to fight for their country sacrifices a million times more for her compatriots. -

IF there was a historical Jesus he was probably a deluded psychotic who suffered horribly and died young for no reason. Very sad.
IF IT WAS ALL JUST AS THE WITNESSES SAY THE ONLY REAL SACRIFICE ( PATSY) WAS POOR OLD JUDAS. As you say Jesus had a rotton death ( there are worse ) but after a day of suffering is living it large with his dad up in heaven...and as peteZahut correctly pointed out if we were all good and listened to Jesus where does they leave Jehovah's BIG PLAN? Someone HAD to do the betraying and as jah KNEW the result beforehand ( wheres the free will?)that someone is now condemned forever .... Now THATS what I call a sacrifice!
