WatchtowerFarm.Org: JWs and Ex-JWs Continue Destroying Their Wounded!

by AMNESIAN in

jw

below is the most recent in a lengthy exchange between the elderly bethel brother who arranged for the setting up and hosting of watchtowerfarm.org and an initially-suspicious inquirer.

(for background see: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/95848/1.ashx)

the entire exchange that precedes it is heartbreakingly illuminating as regards the tragic plight of elderly bethelites who've devoted their lives to the wbts and should, imo, be disseminated far and wide.

huh? Can't say that I understood any of this exchange and what the point was.

i like "theocratic strategy", "new light", "the slave", and "lovers of truth"......anything that you find amusing?

"Mature Christians" was often used to bully people on matters of conscience to lean to following the unwritten rule.

can someone explain to me fully about the "1914" situation??

joenobody

Hey quotes - thanks for pointing out that tiny tidbit about August/October. It's a pretty important detail for those that try to say "well SOMETHING significant happened that year".

How Would You Feel If "Minimus" Just Vanished from JWD?

by JH in

this was his last thread, over a week ago.

http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/88208/1.ashx.

i would feel really sad if he never posted again.

joenobody

Wouldn't miss him that much in all honesty. Nothing against him as a person, but I would regularly ignore his one question posts - too succinct.

Sin City.. omg.. SO GOOD

by GetBusyLiving in

just wanna let you guys onto this amazing movie i just saw!

i think every ex dub should celebrate their ex dubness by watching this terrific flick!

it has everything you could ever want in a movie - great style, ultra violence, corny terrific dialog, amazing cast.

joenobody

Saw about 40 minutes of it before walking out. Don't get me wrong I can handle violent movies if there is a point to the violence (fine with war movies, gangster, Kill Bill even). The movie had an interesting look, but I walked out of several reasons:

- the violence I did see was sadistic in nature

- the dialogue kind of blew (I know it's supposed to be like that, but it turned me off)

- didn't like people laughing at the "jokes" that centered on violence...

- basically it felt very, very dumb

- I was bored with the storyline and didn't want to sit through the rest of it

I don't expect this movie to be remembered for much 5 years down the road. It reeked of geekdom. I contrast it with a Tarantino movie that at least had terrific dialogue and memorable lines. Nothing much to be said for this one (although Carla Gugino nude was terrific!)

So Who's Going to Win American Idol This Time Around?

by TresHappy in

i think nadia is the most talented, but that mohawk last night didn't win her any points with the judges.

simon growl is predicting this week that carrie underwood will win and sell more than any previous ai winner.

of course last week he predicted bo would win.

joenobody

Nadia - I like her, but she butchered "Time After Time"

Carrie - will place about 4th and immediately be the most successful person from the show with a bland country career

Constantine - very disappointing - he's a total poseur with a mediocre voice

Mikayla - probably gone this week

Bo - easily the complete package - he's sooooo relaxed out there and very unique. His rendition of "Time in a Bottle" proved that less is more

Believe in 607 BCE or you are not one of Jehovah's Witnesses

by VM44 in

if a jw states that 607 bce is incorrect, how long will it take before the elders announce from the platform to the congregation that the person is "no longer one of jehovah's witnesses"?

.

joenobody

Funniest thread in a while!!! It's always fun reading one where 607 comes up and you end up waiting for scholar to post.

scholar! You are getting lazy dude! Your retort simply consists of listing out 4 date choices and saying "607" is the obvious choice? Can't you at least cut and paste your usual blather?

Come clean once and for all with some real credentials. I'd sincerely like to read any peer reviewed material you have written on the matter.
