just nothing more than a 'share'..... i was in pittsburgh on business and took a day off and paid a visit to russells grave.. i haven't stopped laughing since.
i'm worried i'm going to break ribs.. had i seen this as a young kid/adult.....i surely would have thought "wtf???".
folks...if you ever needed confirmation this whole thing is a laughable cult......make your way to pittsburgh and see chuck's resting spot.......its worth it just get pictures with his pyramid.. lol.
ROFLMAO - that is hilarious daringhart
i have been inactice now for about 4 months.
i keep getting visit from elders and well meaning ministerial servants.
i went back to two meetings about two weeks ago.
In what ways do the non JWs you know pale in comparison to the witnesses?
All leafy greens, with garlic, onion and a pinch of s&p. perfecto!
My absolute favorite thing to do is walk in nature.
i honestly think that if i have to watch her sing that stupid song and promote those lifestyle facelifts very much longer, i am going to go get a .45 automatic and shoot out my television screen.. thank you very much for your consideration of this rant.. sincerely,.

Man that song and the commercial are irritating.
i showed my wife the new light, it did not go over good.
i started with all the publications and asked her three questions 1 who is the fds 2when did they start 3 when did they get appointed over "all the belongings"?
using the recent publications she said 1 the fds is 144000 2 they started in the 1st centry 3 they were over all belongings in 1919. then i showed her the annual meeting report on the jw.org and went over each point.
All is not lost. People don't fit into neat packages. That's good and bad. You do have some room for error. Just try again. One approach does not work for all. You have to really think about their personality and how they react to fear, uncertainty, doubt etc. Then go from there.
I always stressed to my family that there should be unconditional love between us no matter our beliefs. So far I've been able to keep communication open with everyone.

I've been able to help some of my family by using some of Hassan's techniques. I talked to them about what life would be like had our family not been generations deep into the organization. I talked about fear and the hold it has on them. I asked how would it feel not to be afraid anymore.
I also never brought up doctrine. But if they did, I would gently ask questions and make them explain any teachings or changes to me.
It is so frustrating when what you want most of all is for your family to just get out of the cult. Just tweek your style up a bit and your wife may soon join you.
This year 3 family members voted for the first time in their life!
i had an opportunity to see skyfall in the theater yesterday.
it's almost as good as casino royale, with some parts of it being even better.
the opening sequence was a real thrill, one of the best.
Just saw it. Excellent!!
That is very funny, Hortensia.
