Mid 50's is how old he is. He's not an elder or MS that's part of the problem that the elders have. Why would Jah coose YOU? you lowly one with no position in the congregation?

my friend is being hounded by the elders for coming out of the closet!
by hoser inhis conscience moved him to partake at the memorial last year and now the elders are harassing him.
he's for real a real believer that he's annointed and has the calling.
they are calling him crazy and removed all his "privileges" with the congregation..

You must be in Ontario the center of the JW universe. I heard nothing mentioned by any of my relative elders or the elders in the cong. I heard nothing about it happening in Edmonton or Saskatoon. If it did happen in these western cities it must have been for invited ears only.

agent zero
maybe it was a local event and they tried to pump it up. I've talked to a lot of brothers in responsible positions in the last two days and I've heard nothing of it. where was this meeting held agent zero? If it was a local event and they said it was Canada wide they said a big fat Lie.

If you attended an event like this and were told it was all across Canada you were lied to it did not happen in our circuit.

Divine Retribution is On The Way!
by cameo-d inimagine that you are....an ex- [insert religious organization here].. you no longer believe in the hocus-pocus rituals and you can see that many stories from scripture have been twisted and mis-told.
you can see where agendas of power and control have been derrived from these teachings, using guilt and 'obligation to god' as a means of extortion of your time and money.. imagine that you suddenly lose your job; then you cannot pay the mortgage.
in the midst of all that you find out your child has a terminal illness and you have no health insurance.

I think you're on to something Terry.
The preaching activity is Sooo urgent we are always told at the Service Meetings, but when it comes to the actual preaching work it is done in the most ineffective manner.
Typical Saturday morning preaching.
1. Service arrangement for 9:30- elder taking lead shows up 5 to 10 minutes late with a coffee in hand.
2. As few groups as possible are assigned to make for larger groups in each vehicle so less territory is covered than if 2 per car group.
3. 10 am to 10:15 am out the door.
4. sister incompetent/forgetful pioneer realizes she forgot her bible at home. Go to her place to get it.
5. 10:30 first call in the territory
6.11:15 coffee break
7. 11:45 back in the territory
8. 12:00 noon done the field service for the day
this is a typical Saturday morning of preaching. If a person is honest in reporting their "Time" only 1 hour can be counted as field service for over 3 hours put in the morning. I've complained about it but the elders/pioneers like it that way. I think it's set up this way to keep people busy a social control to make publishers waste 30 hours a month to keep up with the 10 hour requirement.

Are Any Of You Afraid of Dying At Armageddon?
by minimus ini'm not but i know some jws that have drifted but when things like 9/11 catastrophes occur, they're right back at the kingdom hall.. do you ever worry that the great tribulation might occur and you will die?.

I figured out many years ago that Armageddon is the Jehovahs witness equivalent of Catholic/Protestant Hell.
Do as we say or go you burn in Hell/die at Armegeddon
Same $hit different pile
One SAD or Circuit assembly the guy on the stage was going on and on about whether if you didn't regular pioneer you might die at Armegeddon cause I guess publishers and auxilary pioneers just arn't gonna make it.
I wish I would have recorded that talk and put it on the net for all to hear the control freaks
