having a conversation with a pimi elder and i asked him how he deals with the fact that he never expected to get old.
i get the feeling that some dubs still have the original generation explanation hard-wired, even though they claim to accept the new version.
so my question is, how old do you have to be to be considered old?
Scruff Im 30 and feel old!
Im also condidered an old father medically speaking.
Not quite. I think the age for a geriatric mother (Yes, that is the term or at least was) is 35. I don't think there is any such *medical* concept for a father but I do know the average age for parenthood is getting older every year. The area I live in the average parent is mid thirties for first child.

she helped me.
sent me my first copy of crisis of conscience (free) grace has been featured on many talk shows, including sally jesse raphael, raising awareness of support for cult abuse survivors.
She definitely lives on in her granddaughter ~ they are so alike.
Northern seal Have you tried a DM to mouthy granddaughter about the tapes? They would be a fascinating historical record for an exjw historian.
we are all very familiar with the fact that jws do not celebrate xmas.
we probably used the same speech as we had been told from the platform that since xmas had its roots in paganism everything associated with it was a big no-no.
xmas trees, definitely a no-no!
Very interesting Lost in the Fog I tend to think that practical things emerged in early man before ceremonial etc and it was likely the health benefits of pine were was the real reason the people brought them into the house in the winter. They were obsessed with ‘miasma’ and bad air so if people had coughs colds and illness they burnt pine needles to purify the air. It’s also handy to have a ready supply of fire wood INSIDE the house in case of heavy snowfall, storms etc or illness.

hi all.. i didn't want to post this in private because i want all to see what i saw.. the protest at the melbourne convention went superbly in my opinion.
the protesters and their banners were more than eloquent and succinct.
you could feel the emotion they all conveyed.
Oh my word O’Brien has aged since the A.R.C. Wow that has put him under stress.
in fact, several "wtf"s, not least - why were you visiting a convicted pedophile after his release from prison, never-mind having any contact with him in the first place when his preoclivities seemed to be an open secret.. and the best he can some up with is "i don't remember"?
you don't remember?
there's a fucking photo of you with one of the victims and accessories to the crimes you dumb fuck!.
It’s not yet certain if he will be cut off from the public purse or if his mum will be providing him with an allowance.
Prince Andrew isn’t paid from the public purse, his mother gives him the money. It’s called the Civil List and It all changed some years ago when people become outraged that a whole string of hangers on were being paid plus the Queen wasn’t paying tax. Now I think it’s only those in direct line to the throne do or will in the future get cash.( Duke of York the exception?)

Oh boy get a Load of this ridiculousness.
They're only putting on a show because GB are there. They wouldn't give a monkeys if it was Bob from the local congregation.
No wonder the GB believe their own bullshit, they're surrounded by sycophants!
…(and for the very first time), i thought i'd post a new topic completely non-wt-related... about a subject matter i have a particular affinity for.... ..i'm a major movie geek (most people here already know that), but one of the many things i especially like are what i call "middle-finger victory lines".. they are memorable (and extremely quotable) moments of dialogue, wherein the protagonist says an extremely cool or badass comment to a very deserving defeated opponent.... ...usually (but not always) said when victory has just been literally snatched from the clutches of certain defeat, and serving as a tall, proud, and victorious flipoff to the often (but not always) shocked-at-the-sudden-turn-of-events enemy.. my ten favorites:.
"smile, you sonofabitch.

Oh and apparently one of the actual PiMi Jehovah's witnesses went to kindly buy some of the protester’s some coffees during lunch break and guess what? Those swines the attendants actually prevented him from going back in to the convention!!!!
How awfully petty can you get??

They need a JWFacts.com banner.
Hi Bandicoot they did have one. If you check out You tuber “Goatlike Personality”’s channel he’s made a few short videos at the protest. Came all the way from Norway for it. He showed that there were some JWfacts.com posters there. They actually made mention of Paul Grundy too.
