  Inactive ones are bloodguilty?

  by dissonance_resolved in

  i've been thinking about brother morris' statement at the zone meeting this past weekend that inactive ones are bloodguilty.

  bloodguilt is defined as "guilty of murder or manslaughter.

  " murder is #1 on the list of disfellowshipping offenses- all they would have to do is change the wording from "murder" to "bloodguilt" and suddenly there you have grounds to disfellowship anyone who's inactive.

  Yes, so all those ones incarcerated for their stand on neutrality, who are constrained and cannot witness, is Bloodguilty? So sad.

  Does having priveleges in the congregation mean you will have a successful marriage?

  after reading about tight pant tony's rant about sisters only marrying ministerial servants lest their marriage will be a failure what anecdotal evidence do you have to support this.

  the divorces that i am familiar with in the congregation show me that having priveledges in the congregation do not improve the odds of a better marriage.

  i would say about 60% of the divorces had at least one spouse who was a pioneer, elder or ministerial servant.

  This is so ridiculous. Are young women now to look at Labels, people with badges instead of traits. I strongly oppose AM3's counsel. If you want to marry someone don't be fooled by the uniform. Look inside the person and see if they are kind, generous, honest, loving, forgiving, caring, and if that guy is a MS, try to overlook that.

  when i am3 was going to speak i was ecstatic to hear this lunatic embarass himself.

  after the propaganda indoctrination session, a relative asked me what my spiritual goals were, i told em i want to become a servant before i turn 23 so i could get laid.

  lmfao.

  2 Tim 3: But know this, in the last days, people will be hard to deal with..............Wearing colourful socks......not marrying Ministerial Servants

  ....wearing spanx, er spandex and arousing the male members at Bethel. Because of this, lateness will occur. Having children that are failures.

  From these turn away. (AM3 translation)

  How to Knock Nazi Elders off their high horse

  the borg has many inconsistencies, when the topic is helping humble and honest people achieve their full potential.

  consider a working man who works 40 to 60 hours a week and still manages to show up to all the meetings, participate, do all of his assigned work within the kh, but his ministry has slipped to 8 hours per month.

  this same man is working hard to move up within the ranks only to get shut down without even knowing.. .

  Huh??? Savoir, you are reading too much into this. You do not have a terminal illness. You just have a dysfunctional BOE's that let this thing happen. If you have confidence with an Elder in your cong. discuss this matter with him. At least you will be feeling satisfied in venting your displeasure, and you would be calling out that Elder for the rat that he is.

  Was an Elder once, is right. The BOE makes the decision to decide the WT reader. But, the Reader should be capable of reading. Should be a good example, but not exemplary. When this decision is make by two, then the BOE should have the courage to address the matter. Although this understood, it is not practiced.

  i worked the election yesterday, here in california, poll worker, from 6 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. it was fun and interesting, went pretty smoothly, nice day.

  it was very depressing to come home, look at the news, and find that the republicans now control the senate.. .

  do you think canada would take me?

  Well, first of all you'll have to explaine what kind of Poll work that you did. Make sure that when they ask you that question that you specify that it's not the kind that you danced around a poll, and as you got hot you removed clothing.

  It's there already.

  That guy, a helper from the GB made a comment about single brothers and sisters working together. The temptation could develop and they could be fornicating. I don't know why they are that sex crazed at Bethel. I have worked decades with the opposite sex, and the more I have worked with them the less I wanted to get intimate with them

  No, that's a whig, and the third eye is part of his disguise. This way, when he engages in the Cart Witnesssing you won't identify him. It's pretty clever when you think about it.

  Meeting for not paying assembly fees???!!!!

  hey folks......has anyone else heard of, or experienced this before?.

  i visited by parents over the weekend and accompanied them to their assembly....same rubbish spoken about since ive been born....obey the gb, donate your last penny, no education and be a pushover.. anyways, our assembly hall has lush vegetation and scenery, so i was more focused on that....i started dozing off after lunch, so got up and went walking, saw some older folks from the congregation i grew up with.. upon the conclusion of the assembly, wed normally leave out right after the prayer ends so as to avoid the traffic.

  however, for this assembly he told me that hes gonna be a few minutes with the elders and branch representatives...so a few minutes turned into an hour..

  Somehow we've managed to shift our focuss towards Buildings, and the Internet. Now we have a TV studio, and all of this is based on Jehovah's willing them. CO's are not supposed to get involved in money. But, this has changed all of a sudden.

  What needs to happen, is everyone has to smile at those meetings, and don't sweat it. Let their collection speeches go in one ear and out the other. Walk away from the meeting smiling. It's about time that the WT felt money pressure downsized.
