  the gb can kiss my ass.. i'm writing "0" on the little slip of paper they pass out.. hey here's a thought:.

  you know that "widow's might" stuff they're always talking about?

  well i'm pretty dang sure that the lady was giving from the heart not because she filled out some dumba$$ piece of paper pledging two small coins several months previous!.

  Hi londo111 Actually although it seems hard for most to accept, I would not be surprised at all. Several years ago a friend at bethel told me when the layoffs began that they had brought in a witness from the business world that was an efficency expert and he was the one that told them what they had to do. So you see a little is good then more must be better right. Stuck In for 50 years now

  Hi Trapped in JW land I know how you feel I have been in all of my life and have always known that I was gay. However got married and now I am stuck at this point in life. And no I do not think they are reaching out to the gay community. The reliogion is the absolute worst persecutor of homosexual people. Remember they take the bible literally and completely disregard any hint of normalcy in a gay relationship. I know some here will dis what I just said but I am not sorry for being myself. Stuck in

  Thanks so much wizzstick for posting this. it brought a flood of emotions back to me as well. I was there as a young man for the whole thing. It saddend me too. I think of all of the lost years of life for my family. The expectations of Armageddon right around the corner, as even the reporter pointed out. :-)

  Your Experience with Resigning as an Elder

  by committeechairman in

  2. experiences

  i'm considering resigning as an elder.

  i'm not planning to fade or stop as one of jehovah's witnesses, just stop serving as an elder.. i have responsibility in the congregation and in circuit, district, rbc, etc.

  and i'm completely exhausted.

  I sat down one day and composed a letter telling of all my woes and medical problems. I too was very busy in the cong and circuit. I got a call from the co telling me how bad he felt and could he help in any way. I explained my situation and it was accepted. It has been years now and I hardly attend but must stay around for family sake. I do not want to lose them right now. Just keep reiterating the sickness issue and that you are tired out. I am sure that they will buy it and just keep your head down and all will work out and you can do whatever you want. And enjoy the real life without that baloney hanging over your head. If you have been here any time at all you already know that the whole religion is BS.

  Homosexuality, the GB and the Bible

  by Oubliette in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the recent topics addressing the shamefully bigoted talk by jw gb member, anthony morris, on the subject of homosexuality got me thinking.

  what the heck is up with the gb's obsession with this subject?.

  as far as i can determine, jesus never said a single thing in reference to homosexuality.

  The governing body are no better than most other religions. They are rotten to the core. The issue goes back to N H Knorr whoi was always obsedssed with masturbation and homosexuality. This is another thing that they use to keep people in fear. I am no longer bound by theur dogma.I am a Gay man I have been all of my life. I thought as a young JW that God would take the desire away. Ge never did. I feel horrible that I married a pioneer sister and that I ruined her life because all of my married years I could never pray myself straight. I am firm in my beleif that it is genetic.

  I am not a thief, murderer I am a lover of people and have no desire to hurt anyone. And they use Levitucus 18 as proof and if they followed all written in that book they would rightly so be in jail. You not pick and choose from Gods word.

  anonymouz An interesting observation to say the least. I have in my research found that some people beleive that the globalists funded the WT for CT Russell and the Mormons as well. Perhaps you know who I am talking about. I do agree that there is something not right in the organization. If you have more information please elaborate and tell me what you think of the globalist funding.

  if so, what is your experience?

  i've seen only a few talks by gb members and would like to hear what they're like.

  are they personable, aloof, humble, arrogant?

  As a kid went door to door with NH knorr. I was very young and not much for memories of it though.
