if there really is no god, then man really only has himself to blame for all this mess.... .
blaming god or satan would only seem like a cop - out, and an excuse for opression.. man may not be able to stop a tsunami or a hurricane, but we can absolutely stop wars and opression, violence and hatred.. come on people!!!
why is this so difficult to accomplish when we have the capacity to do so???
Evolutionary biology.
Our hardwired behaviors and responses, that have helped us survive for ~1 million years, can not be rewired in 100 or even 1,000 years. The progress of humanism vastly outpaces the hardware upgrade needed for such a wholesale change.
I wish I had a more positive answer.
brother of the hawk, newly enlightened & gojira, recorded an elder's meeting on 5/7/03.
both does a great job of defending me and making the elders look foolish!.
thank you raypublisher/jj and jwstruggle for the awesome job you did on it.. follow up story was not recorded but we will post it here hopefully over the weekend.. enjoy, it's pretty hilarious how they try to control us and come after me on a work of fiction!.
Going back to the Viagra tie for a moment.
This seems like a promotional item to me. Was this dude that cheap to wear a tie just to be wearing a tie and conform to idiotically imposed dress code? What if Playboy was handing out the freebies that day...
Am I missing somethig here? Why in the world would you wear such a tie? I have not seen any Tylenol ties out there...

"What are you going to do when the contract expires?"
That's one of the dumbest question asked by them.
Authors also get paid for their work through book sales, numbnuts. If there is an interest and the book is selling, what do you think I am going to do?
Or....were you suggesting that you pay my mortgage of I give up the book.
Also, one can find unacceptable (to them) sexual connotations in just about any physical act. For example, you brother windwasher elder, when you hold the handle of that squeegee all tight and work it around, it almost looks like you are tugging on a male private part. Oh, I am so offended! What adjustments are you going to make?
Morons.

Hmmm... it had "offended some sisters".
Well, tell the bitches not to read it then!
excerpt from july 2013 km article "new initiatives for public witnessing".
4 how the witnessing is done: those.
involved in special metropolitan public.
..and Jehovah can't "scan" their hearts at once, maybe on his lunch break, because?
Instead, he needs them to walk by the makeshift stand of some cuckoo publishing company...
Right, makes sense. Tons of sense.
god's real name and identity yhvh.
yhwh - fraudulent identity.. .
can we all sue wt for evidenced fraud and deliberate deception ??
"potatoe", as put so elloquently in the words of a former US vice-president....
dont ask me why but my dad recited to me a wonderful experience out of the blue.
he never talks jw to me so not sure where it came from.
an american brother came over to the uk who was a great great great grandson of a pastor who was friends with charles russell.
Debate the trinity?!
How about we debate 1914, 587/607, blood, shunning or any other sticking point that airs dirty JW laundry and see how many successful converts...
background: my wife and i are inactive, we stopped attending in 2005. raised as jws, were pioneers, i was elder etc... .
our kids are in college, also inactive but are baptised.
my wife went back to college, getting her degree this month at age 48!
The self-righteous, manipulative and cold overtone of the letter begs a question to be asked of them:
What makes them so sure they will celebrate the 50th anniversary? Isn't Armageddon just around the corner...
using bible in determing the date of the creation of adam .
anyone in their right mind believe this to be true in today age.. don,t you think this nullify the whole bible?
the very first book.
HB, I admire (and completely agree with) your take on posts here, but you are commiting the unthinkable when it comes to religion: trying to base your conclustions on facts, logic and reasoning...
i was just reading the thread on the secret disfellowshipping of the menlo park elders.
obviously the society didn't want the bad press and was hoping to sweep it under the carpet that is why it was secret and the defendants weren't there.
to me this is not only unfair but totally bizarre and weird.how can some one be disfellowshiped and yet not know that they are disfellowshiped.
For a moment I thought the outsted elders have turned to Google's paid advertising service to spread the word about what happened
