i've been invited to go to central america for a week on a global village project.
.
are there any possible issues that the congregation might have with me doing this?.
The brothers would say this is energy and resources you should be directing to furthering "God's Kingdom Interests," aka free labor to further the interests of the publishing/real estate corporation known as the Watchtower Society.
You will be shunned and seen as unsuitable association should you even "think" about doing this!
i thought it would be important to clearly point in the recent talk by governing body member stephan lett, that he did in fact deliberately lie concerning what he described as lies and false information by apostates, concerning the organization being permissive toward people in the organization who had been involved in pedophilia.
the truth of the matter is thats exactly what the organization has been doing and perhaps for a long time.
the recent candace conti law suit where she was awarded 28 million dollars was levied against the wts for its irresponsible behavior by the elders who gave no notification of the accused jonathan kendrick that he had been charged with pedophilia and spent months in jail for his actions .
Is this theocratic warfare...lying about people who are telling the truth to keep the organizations followers in the dark about the problems within that prove they are not God's earthly visible organization?
They certainly don't want the anyone knowing about where their monetary contributions are going!
well, this is a new development.
she broached the subject of ttatt tonight.
said i was right about the flood.
i'm new here but not new to researching and questioning the jw beliefs.
i have quite a story.... one that's been haunting me for awhile... but first, i'd like to hear what people have to say about this topic question, please.. -gigi.
This youtube entry is well worth spending the time it takes to listen. Very funny and full of "ahah" moments.

It is Julia Sweeny's "Letting Go of God." It has helped many people I know, as it helped me.
today i added a new article to my blog that shares a bit of astounding evidence of just how ridiculous it is for a jw to tell anyone anywhere that jws abstain from transfusion of blood, and plasma in particular.
this article is based on two studies authored by medical staff at duke university's center for blood conservation, a program that is heavily touted by the active "noblood" crowd among jws.
one of these studies contains a real whopper of a piece of information!
as many of you know, i've been out of the organization for about a month now.
the elders haven't shown an interest in my absence until now.
today, i have received phone calls from two elders as well as a friend.
alert..............alert.....breaking news .......... john cedars of jwsurvey has pranked called governing body member anthony morris iii at bethel .
over 2 minutes of pranking .
as i type he is editing the recording into a video .
I thought the call was a hoot!
i would bet TOMO3 was very upset that an outsider was able to invade his cushie situation. He is used to respect and adoration. This probably will cause current Bethelites to be questioned and interrogated, hopefully waking some of them up that they are living la vita loco!
just curious.
have any of you 'postates been accused of celebrating christmas?
how did/would you respond?.
i have to thank tv.jw!!!
(im not putting the complete link, but you know what i mean).
after showing my wife the 'trolley song' as we now call it, she was rolling on the floor in embarrassment and shock.. she shook her head, and was clearly troubled by what we watched.. little by little, the org is actually helping more to wake up!
i'm putting my video skills to good use.
enjoy, my fellow bretheren.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuruwnpwpe0.
