11 march 2017. dear governing body of jehovah's witnesses,.
could you please introduce the phrase "spiritual generation" to replace the phrase "overlapping generation".
it would save us all a lot of confusion.. an online search of your publications dating back to 2000 showed that this term has never been used.. http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/s/r1/lp-e?q="spiritual+generation"&p=par.

and so many more on youtube disrupting jw's.
how does this make you feel?.
Scotty, I am not an anti jw at all costs kind of a person. Jdubs have a right to believe and teach their children what they want.
I think these kind of protests are more of an example of people "taking power back" from a group then trying to wake people up. (I am speaking as a born in) There is no valid argument that we born ins were not marginalized and lied to for many years.
As far as this video, if i remember it correctly the guy drank the wine, said a few words promoting his website and then left. When he did that he gave up his invitation to be there and then left. All in all, it was about 3 minutes from when he stood up to when he left. Your mum being offended is a minor consequence if this helped him break the last few strands of his mental bondage to this group.
I know if my mom had been there, she would have felt a distinct sense of shame that what he was speaking was the truth. Thats only because I have refused to allow my family to shun me and have partially woken up them up. They still choose to be a part of the group but that is their right.

poopie,
You cant have free will w/out the consequences. Yes you can stay in if you want. The consequences are not being true to your inner knowledge that the church is a lie. You can leave if you want. The consequences are that your friends and family will most likely not talk to you. You can not like the consequences or you could love them but you have the right and the ability to make the choice.
When you pick up the stick, you pick up both ends of that stick.

If the org is in control then how does anyone ever leave? Because of free will. When i had kids I could have stuck my head in the sand and just went along. I made the conscious choice to leave. So can any adult sitting in that hall.
"13 All of us have freedom of choice regarding associations"
That is 100% true. dubs are not forced. They simply feel that their relationship with their church is more important than their relationship with you.
Its easier to blame someone else then the real culprit... you (if you decide to stay in)

i have some tricks to play.
i know it may sound childish but i feel that creating havoc and forcing the memorial to be postponed will be the highlight of the night!
wish me luck!.
Waton.... that is actually pretty awesome..... Gulp some wine, stand up and say... I really am the greatest apostle of all of them!! How ironic would that be? I would guess the entire room would have no clue to the reference you would be making! Classic
scotty.. blah... blah.... your mom is a cow eyed jdub too huh?

this judge ask the rape victim "why couldn't you just keep your knees together", wth.
he acquitted the man accused in the case after deciding his testimony was more credible.
story "canada judge resigns over "keep your knees together comment" and he later became a jw, he will make a good one.....
This evil african-canadian judge also told the male...
"You've got to be very sure that the girl wants you to do it. Please tell your friends so that they don't upset women and so that they don't get into trouble. We're far more protective of women — young women and older women — than we used to be and that's the way it should be."
Clearly this was not a cut and dry rape case as indicated by the 2nd acquittal.
Fuck both of these drunk idiots who go to a house party and want to get it on.

I suppose the uk judge chose a good time to talk about personal responsibility in the world in which we live. Seems like a common sense. Good for her

Not sure if I follow you blondie, I certainly do not think of the term born in as a pejorative. It is the only class of jdubs that deserve some pity. Born ins are truly screwed from the start. People may choose to join or leave but the born ins have no choice. They are the only group of dubs that matter.
Cow eyed adults may be further entrenched by goofy acts of defiance but my focus is not on the adults. They have made their choice and are cozy in the bed they have made. Plant the seed in one born in and it is worth it.

the watchtower library is a great tool to learn more about the watchtower itself.
for example, answering the question "does the word "organization" ever appear in the bible"?
is easy to answer using it.
or these..
Romans 14:5-6
One man judges one day as above another, another judges one day the same as all others; let each one be fully convinced in his own mind. The one who observes the day observes it to jehovah. Also, the one who eats, eats to jehovah, for he gives thanks to god; and the one who does not eat does not eat to jehovah, and yet gives thanks to god.
or
Colossians 2:16
Therefore, do not let anyone judge you about what you eat and drink or about the observance of a festival or of the new moon or of a sabbath.
Do not start thinking for yourself!!!!
