i woke up today a right grumpy basket case.... not a good day for the jehovah's witness to call on me to do there usual shepherding call, bringing me the usual mags of shite!
i stood there on the doorstep in my pj's, care free and all fired up.
i was asked how i was doing & then informed that they had my latest mags.
Well done sleeping beauty! I was in bed listening to you giving them both barrells and was going to join in but I think they got the message, you didn't need any help you were on a roll. LOL
My brother came round last night for a few beers and if I had gone to the door the fists would have been in use.

a friend of mine (inactive) is being threatened with a judicial committee because he took his children to schoolmates' birthdays and because he celebrated his wife's birthday.. do you know if celebrating birthday is sufficient ground for setting a judicial committee?.
the ks2010 does not mention birthdays specifically, and i feel like it would be quite a stretch to make it fall under the "apostasy" category (subcategory "celebrating false religion holidays" or "idolatry").. what do you think?.
Elders can all think they have power over the drones, I will be out at my daughters 10th birthday party this weekend with the only family member who speaks to me! He is DF and I am inactive, so if any JW'S turn up at Pizza Hut they had better bring a present for her or they will get a good kickin from my 16 year old black belt in you no what ! She is a lovely girl and we have got her a new laptop and ipod touch etc.. Making up for lost time on birthdays. It's going to be great so My words to you are sod the elders and just go for it ! We are!

im looking for some advice.. so i grew up as a witness was baptized when i was seventeen, which by the way i was pushed into baptizm cuse my parents kept asking me when i was and threatned to not buy me a car if i didnt get baptized.
since it was never in my heart i was never very dedicated and was disfellowshipped by nineteen i started the process of coming back but after bout four months i moved out.
i started partying alot mainly with my other disfellowshipped friends and nonactive jw frien, we were drinking alot and smoking weed but soon i started feeling the need to go back so i started up at the meetings but i got bored and went back to my old ways, this has been what i have been doing for the last five years, partying getting drunk and drugs and then stopping and going back to the meetings for a couple months, the same process for last the last almost five years.
Welcome is the first thing I would like to say So sorry you are going through this mental tourture, your sister is on her way to been the same as you, shunned by all JW family if what you say is correct. Your parents are just like mine, shunning us for the last 3 months when they found out we was not going to meetings etc.. You have to be strong and take control of what's best for you, not your family who are using blackmail as a tool to get you to go back to the meetings. You sound a young person and if family take sides with a religion over family flesh and blood you know something is very wrong with their mental state ! We have got over the lack of contact with parents by filling our time with lots of activity outdoors and hobbies etc.. You dad is under the spell of the WTBTS and untill we bring this organisation down they will not see why they are wrong.
It makes me very mad to see everyday new ones like you having to come to a site for support when your own family / congregation left you in the wilderness. Please don't take this in a wrong way but if you see what the JW'S have done to my family then you would be as mad as me!!
DO NOT GO BACK TO THE KINGDOM HALL ! Use all of you real friends on JWN and we can offer any help you need to break free finally from this cult!
You take care

The preaching work is and always be just a test of obidience to the borg. Just like the tree in the garden of eden ! You no this is true and yet you come on here to mess us all up with your goat crap !! I think we are done with this thread.
Simon or lady lee please get rid of this plant from the WTBTS as we are all waisting time posting answers to this person. He or she needs help. But not from us on JWN.

just heard from a friend that a nearby body of elders in their congregation have decided that anybody who is on facebook will not be able to have privleges in their congregation.. hilarious!.
.
-mf31-.

The elders own opinions again ? Thell them to mind there own bizznuz, and go on some sheperding calls!!! Asholes !!!!!!!!!!

this subject thread has been on my mind for a while, especially after seeing "zombieland" and foodall's thread about our possible ufo/reptilian over lords/realion/alien invaders.
when the great day of reckoning comes, whether it be from ufo alien invaders, realian reptilian over lords, demons in human-hybrid form, or just plain old virus-infected zombies, what will you be carrying to defend yourself from the hostile forces of e-vile?
please, no one say a "bible" or i'm going to just laugh my ass off.
From the Terminator film... A phase plasma rifle in a 40 watt range!! Or the ELF weapons they use in the UK for crowd control.

please read and i will tell you now this was it was like for me !.
kingdom halls are a hellish memory for me.
i grew up as a jehovah's witness from the age of 9 until i fought my way to freedom at age 18. i recall children as young as a year old being beaten repeatedly for not sitting still during services...some sessions, called assemblies, were 6 hours long and lasted for 3-5 days in succession.. my nephew was one of many who felt the literal sting of the watchtower's stance of "spare the rod, spoil the child.
Christians are supposed to be followers of Christ.... Well Doubtfully Yours, do you actually think for one minute Jesus would strike/slap a child that was acting up or just not conforming to the norm ? No I dont think so....
Im sorry but there is no room for 'Spare the Rod' you 'Spoil the Child'.... The only thing that works is love, reasoning and more love....
Doubtfully Yours You REALLY sound quite an abnoxious person. Im so glad you werent one of my parents !
i just got off listening to the the tape about the teh bethlelite brothers and the case a member of the anointed has filed against a congregation about an illegal disfellowshiping...and both of these "brothers" have set this organization for a very hard fall!
but!...thats not what i see from what o got from these tapes....but it will be a big contributing factor (i actually feel sorry for those poor "ignorant" elders who will be left to "flap-in-the-wind" over this!!!
)..but its what ii know is comig about all religion that know for a fact!!!
Tell us what the event is and who will be affected by it and if possible the date aswell
