I'm terribly sorry for the poor soul...what a way to end your life.
Damned obsessive cleaning of Jehovahs Witnesses. Watchtower keeping them busy doing nothing.

DF friend is right.
It's utterly horrible. Not to mention most DF people are desperate not to be DF; so for WT to say it's to show them the 'error of their ways' is absurd. They know they error...they are just imperfect, like Jesus said: forgive not 7 times but 77 times.

New Boy posts these stories every now and then for the new members....otherwise they'd never get to read them; and they're priceless!

God expresses his perplexity at his own creation
by slimboyfat injust got to share this, zizek at his very best.
explaining how the traditional view of the ransom makes no sense and reverts christianity to paganism where god is subject to a superior notion of justice.
how the injunction from jesus to hate mother, father, brothers and sisters is really a call for a non-hierarchical society, of which the holy spirit is a symbol.

Cofty P.S. What is wrong with Zizek?
Yes it's most distracting.
People on doses of codeine based opiates behave like this.

The Bible a wierd book.
by James Mixon insome events in the bible can be questionable but there are some stories the rings of truth, and why do i say that because they are so descriptive.
judges 3:22 "ehud an israelite judge, goes to the king of the moabites to pay annual tribute.
instead, he pulls out a dagger and stabs the sh--t out of the king while he is bathing, he literal caused the sh--t to flow and the dagger disappeared in the folds of the king's skin.

what about this one, another Samson classic in Judges 16:
"Then Samson said, "With the jawbone of a donkey, I've piled them in heaps! With the jawbone of a donkey, I've killed a thousand men!"
I think that's why the Jews have the holy book, "the Tanakh", "Prophets" and "writings". I think it's only relatively recently the protestants have deemed the whole bible as the SOLE authority and inerrant word of GOD ' sola scripture' I believe it's called.
You can understand why the Jews were a little more cautious about using some books as inerrant.

Pedophile on The Governing Body
by new boy inthe bottom line there is zero tolerance for any homosexual activity in jehovah’s holy organization.
so all known gays had been kicked out and disfellowshipped before i got to bethel and gays got kicked and disfellowshipped and disgraced when i was there.
sorry, i guess i meant most homosexuals were kicked out in disgrace.

Hey I also think Leo Greenlees while working for the treasury was stealing a lot of new boy's money that they left with him for safe keeping. I left about a 150 dollars with the treasury department and a few months later I went to use some of that money and about half of it was gone and when I went to him to complain he sternly told me to write on the envelope the money inside. I just shrugged it off and took all my money out and bought a few bottles of wine.
He was probably using it to either pay for very young rent boys OR to keep them quiet if they found out his identity....who knows. Shameless swines, a multi million pound company and they rip off poor Bethelites.

Portuguese translation of Crises of conscience?
by Diogenesister indoes it exist and if so where could i get a copy?
i am in touch with a young, particularly uninformed portuguese sister who has been talking to my bi-lingual neighbour.
i have been telling her about some of the organisation's history, of which she is absolutely clueless, and she is open to reading this book....i mean that's how little she knows about her religions own edicts.

I feel like it's really a family thing for her, and, of course 'the paradise' as they now call it. Any other Portuguese resources much appreciated too.

Former Elder insights on recent Child Abuse Cases & changes in the Org
by cha ching inthis former elder, was briefly featured on pbs segment about child abuse among jehovah's witnesses.
in this youtube interview, he is asked about some of his experiences in the org from 1971 to the present.. at about 16:10 he starts telling his story about his involvement with trey bundy, and how he got to know jonathan kendrick, from the candace conti case.. for some reason, this video is starting 15 minutes in, and i can't get the link to start at zero.... you can always rewind ;-).

I love this YouTuber! Apparently he used to be a member here. I love his interview style he really feels for the subject, listens and let's his interviewee speak without interupption, very professional.
Isn't is interesting that the lawyers are in the weekly so-called 'spiritual'neetings of the GovBod?!!
Also horrible that they didn't DF for some regular, run of the mill sin but " speaking abusively of the glorious ones" glorious ones *supposedly* being elders LoL but really we all know it's the leaders at Watchtower HQ
He also mentions st. Stephen as he is known to many religions. A figure I have a complex relationship with. He used to be my hero in a way, I still cry if I see anything featuring him - film/video/bible reading etc Its so sad he WAS incredibly truthful and ethical BUT,and here's the rub, are not the jihadi Muslims just like Stephen, faithful unto death? WAS Stephen actually a fanatic, in truth?
Anyway, maybe a subject for another post but this elder WAS truthful, honest and ethical unto Watchtower death and I have enormous respect for him.
Thanks for posting!!

The very premise of witnesses is flawed.
Rather than being upset if people are killed, they should be happy for them, as they are now guaranteed a resurrection free pass into the new world right?
Stuckinarut if you ask a hard core dub what they really think, this is exACTly what they will say. Its awful and upsetting really, but this is the corollary of their belief system.
No what? Good point!! I'll say that if I get a chance.
