  Some observations on Animal Farm by George Orwell

  by WinstonSmith in

  i recently finished reading animal farm, written by george orwell.

  as someone who has recently awoken to the truth about the truth, this book blew my mind.

  the parallels with the watchtower society are quite astounding.

  animal farm is a great book for someone realzing the tatt. i recommend reading the crucible by aurthur miller. that was the nail in the coffin for me.

  you know the typicial big postcards that we floridians like to send to folks up north in the winter- palm trees, beaches, girls in bikinis--.

  i haven't talked to these two brothers since when i left the kh (in 1988).

  i just wanted them to know i turned out better than fine, with a nice retirement and a new family.

  i had a random thought this morning about clapping.

  growing up in the wt culture i learned the proper protocol for clapping.

  before the assembly speaker gave his talk, but not after.

  The odd thing is "clapping" is supposed to be spontaneous appluase right? A formal and polite way for the crowd to show their appreciation for whatever just happened on the stage. Yet, even the WTBS can find away to suck the life out of the simplest of things.

  elders wife swapping question

  by unstopableravens in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i hear of these stories of elders swapping wives, i remember when i was young hearing of three elders in florida doing this and getting dfed.

  my question is this how is it possible to bring this up in conversation?

  it seems impossible, how can there be multi elders that know each other willing and the wives?

  Jameswoods, Well yeah males have to bring a girl other wise it's just a bunch of horny guys staring at the floor waiting to pounce or the first woman the shows up like a starving cheetah. It's very awkward for everyone.

  The Other Side of the Indian Rape Story

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. social
  2. current

  i'm posting this story, not to defend an indefensible act, but to try to provide some balance.

  the fact is that so many indians exist in a poverty so deep that it's difficult for westerners to even understand.

  the youngest of the rapists in the now world known rape story, according to this uk, independent newspaper story, grew up in that world that seems hopeless.

  FTS, this is not a guy that wanted a little pussy so bad he wasn't going to take "no" for an answer. That is a terrible crime in itself and the article might have some that would warrant my consideration. I am not saying I agree or would not agree..just saying I would listen.

  HOWEVER! THIS GUY(S) GANGRAPED AND THEN RAN HER THROUGH WITH A PIECE OF IRON BAR WHICH KILLED HER! That is not some smelly indian guy with zits trying to bust a nut. That is murder in the most sadistic and psychopathic sense possible.

  I don't feel that any socio-economic factors can ever come close to mitigating this perverts actions, and apparently the people of India whom I imagine live in the same considitions agree. I say, get a rope!

  FTS, what's next are you going to dig up an article about Hitler's stained relationship with the Jewish community of Europe?

  Girlfriend probably getting DF'd

  by The JHWH in

  2. friends

  so the local jc decided to df my girlfriend because of basically premarital sex.. she confessed few weeks back to the elders, and the judicial system had its wheels rolling.. they confronted her today, and eventually came to the conclusion described above.. .

  she told them that she regretted our sexual acts, and that we wouldn't perform that kind of actions before we're married.. they talked with her about getting married etc.

  a week before the jc.. now the reason they decided to df her was not the sexual acts itself, nor the lack of regret,.

  Don't understimate this. It's a cult, she is brainwashed. Even if she accepted the TATT there would be nothing there behind those pretty eyes you adore for a long time. I hope it works out, but there is a reason she is even playing their game. She has no identity with out the JWs. Most people will choose to have an identity over having a partner. I hope I am being pessimistic.

  while looking at the pdf of the new "reduced in size is a blessing from jah" wt for january 2013, i noticed this latest sickening "how the bible changed my life" article.

  (i also noted the person was born the same year as me.

  Leaving the JW's doesn't make people turn to prositution, crime, and dope... Growing up with out the full love and support of one's family does.

  TheJHWH, why do you say she will never leave you. That's kind of a bold statement for any guy to make regarding the fairer sex.

  reinstatement tries

  by Honeybucket in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am looking for the reinstatement guidelines for someone who has been actively trying to get reinstated for 2 years and have put in a reinstatement letter 3x in those two years but was denied everytime.

  are the elders just making an example of them, have they permenately been kicked out, or maybe these people dont want to come back and this story is part of their fade.. .

  has anyone ever heard of people not getting reinstated.

  This site is probably more useful for finding ways to get DF'd instead of Re-instated...
