CAN YOU BE AN 'APOSTATE' IF YOU WERE NEVER BAPTIZED?
by Mary inthis subject came up with a friend of mine on facebook the other day.
he was never officially baptized as a witness and i believe he is now a born again christian.. does crooklyn consider someone an 'apostate' if you were never actually a full-fledged member but ended up leaving?
or are you just considered 'bad association'??

I think I've got a copy downstairs somewhere but I'm not quite sure. Check Randy Watter's website (Freeminds.org) or jwfacts.com to see if they've got it.

If Noah had family worship night in the ark...what's your excuse!?!?!?!?!?!
by LostGeneration infunny picture in new public watchtower.

Assuming for a moment that a worldwide flood actually happened 5,000 years ago as described in Genesis, I'm pretty sure that Noah & Co. would have had alot more important things to do. Like shovelling all the (literal) shit from human and animal alike fro the ship every single day. Plus they have to feed all the animals and cook for themselves every day. All the logistics that would have been involved would have been mind-boggling to say the least and would have taken a lot of their time. I sincerely doubt they would have had time for a frigging "Family Night" of worship.
Good lord, the Writing department gets crazier with each new picture they submit.

"The END is soooooo close"
by Phizzy ini notice reported in a number of posts that this seems to a bit of a mantra with the dubbies now, more so than ever in the past.. is this because they are getting desperate for the life they live as jw's to change ?
they don't really want to end their days with the constant drudgery of the jw life still going on, they want something different, but must "wait on jehovah".
sigh.. i wonder if this is a small opportunity for us to sow some small, niggling doubt, why not ask, when they spew out the "it is soooo close" nonsense:.

One of the elders (a former close friend) who came by to invite me to the Memorial last year, told me that it "didn't matter if Armageddon came in our life-time or not", when I had said that they've been telling people it's 'right around the corner' for the last 130 years. After he said that, I replied "if it doesn't matter if it comes in our life time, then why are you going out and telling people that it is!?"
Unfortunately, the idea that 'Armageddon is imminent' is the center of the Watchtower's universe and they can't let go of that without risking that their entire house of cards will collapse. Without that fear put into the R&F on a daily basis, the New & Improved Faithful Slave might lose authority of their 'domestics', and that has to be avoided at all costs.
I'm sure that in another hundred years, they will still be out their preaching about how 'close' everyone is to The End, with Field Serve-Us Reports still being handed in at the end of every month. A total waste of human time when you think about all the actual charity work that Witnesses could be involved in that might actually make a difference in peoples' lives.....

JWB asked: Mary, how can you copyright 'the truth'?
Good question JWB, but unfortunately, the Borg cares nothing about what is 'the truth'. Eight years ago, a former poster on here who went by the name of Quotes, put a website together that only had quotes from the Craptowers own literature over the last hundred years. He was threatened with a lawsuit from Crooklyn for doing nothing more than quoting 'the truth'. Here are the links where you can read all about it:
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/members/private/83334/1/Quotes-website-receives-Cease-Desist
As we all know, the Borg has a limitless supply of lawyers who were willing to drag this stuff out for years but the average person does not have the financial means to do the same. What was so hilarious is that in the brief that Crooklyn filed, it specifically said that Quotes' motive was to "embarass" them, apparently by their own hand. Since he didn't have the means to drag this through litigation, he took the site down but someone over in the UK took it up and it can be found here: http://www.quotes-watchtower.co.uk/

How many people die because of the Watchtower politics on blood, transplants and vaccinations?
by TJ Curioso inthere are some numbers about this?.
-
Mary
Well, in my family, the ban on blood transfusions cost my brother in law his life and it nearly cost my father his life twice. If that can happen in one family, I can only imagine how many have died in the last half a century since it became a DF'ing offense. 250,000 is not unreasonable.

Were You Ever Interrogated By The Elders?
by minimus insome elders enjoy giving the business to the lowly flock thru intimidation.
.
some love to ask you to enter with them into the "backroom".. of course, there were many that never had run-ins with the shepherds because they were under the radar.. did you ever get interrogatted by the elders and if so, how did it go??

Mary
Yepper. Got my ass hauled before them for swearing (can't imagine why) . Yes I know Christians weren't supposed to swear but since one of the elders questioning me was married and boinking a young pioneer sister (who was also married), somehow I figured mine was the lesser transgression.
I also had several 'talks' to 'readjust my thinking' because I would ask alot of questions that apparently sounded like "apostate questions". Surprisingly, I never got the axe for apostasy even though they know I think it's a crock. In fact, I went to my aunt's 60th anniversary party (in another city) a couple of weeks ago and spent the afternoon with a bunch of Dubs I haven't seen in 25 years. Chatted with them but religion never came up.
Something tells me that the Kingdumb Hell has more doubters housed there than JWN.
