by oppostate in

JW & conspiracythink are tightly correlated.

Hey, this is me... I'm the guy on the left! =)

(picture taken from the wt study some weeks back).

all these years, i've always dreaded waking up early for field service.

i'm a night owl & love to sleep late, so it was excruciating for me to have to wake up early in the mornings & go door knocking.

Are we participants in this forum because of bouts of "loneliness"?

by Wonderment in

i wonder how many of us here hold on to this meeting place out of "loneliness.

could it be that we harbor feelings of "abandonment" and "loneliness" from being left cold and dry by the wt people and our families?

perhaps we do have a need to reach out to people with similar experiences.

DarioKehl

Personally, I've never experienced loneliness. I enjoy solitude way too much (probably even border on misanthropy, but I try to curb that).

Actually, I felt more isolated, exposed, ashamed, vulnerable and on the verge of losing my mind when I was still an active dub. To be surrounded by nosey, closed-minded, overall dumb, uneducated, fake, insincere, dick-waving, hypocritical, back-stabbing religitard assholes with their conditional love was far more torturous than ever being off on my own.

Creepy things jw's have said to you

here's mine: i'm 14 years old, just baptised and a old boy married elder of about 60 odd comes up to me and says " ooooooooooh!

"purrpurr"!

your getting such a lovely figure on you!

I knew a guy just like that, Divergent! He always had stories or illustrations that included naked or topless women--even if they weren't essential elements to the plot. lol

my creepy story: I was mid-20s, MS, pioneer goody 2-shoes. My mom--not bad looking. She had a part on the circuit assembly. When it was over & everyone was visiting & making plans, this really creepy guy in his mid-30s approached me. I'd known this guy most of my life, but he wigged everyone out with his strange, dark behavior. He walked right up to me and said, "wow. your mom looks good! if your dad ever dies, i will ask her out."

2015 Worldwide Memorial Attendance: Another Sign of Decline

by steve2 in

jw memorial attendance last year - 2014 - was about 50,000 shy of 20 million.

some posters on this forum had confidently predicted before the 2014 memorial that attendance would hit more than 20 milion.

they were wrong.. now, in 2015, and the memorial falling on a weekend night (where attendance is historically much higher), attendance has not only failed to top 20 milion but has declined by more than 87,000 in attendance over 2014:.

WTS checklist for Elders to destroy evidence?

hot off the presses from exjw reddit earlier today.

massive leak in uk.. if true, this is big (and very, very disturbing)..

DarioKehl

Wow, so according to Mephis, this is nothing new.

i still find it disturbing that molestation is specifically mentioned in 3 knows letters. In 1998, they saw the importance of keeping those records while all others were destroyed. But in 2001 & this latest one from 2015 wants the mole station records destroyed.

the fact there's a clear change in their procedure in regard to this issue is telling.

So is this just an alarmist reaction to a policy letter that likely gets sent periodically? Or is all the excitement on YouTube & the reddit thread warranted?

Im waiting to see an elder or ex elder show up and shed a little light on this before I have any reaction to it.

So you've seen something like this before?

I'm still kinda skeptical, like, what if it's fake? It's almost too incriminating IMHO.

and it's only in the UK, right before this big charity investigation.

I'm a cynical, sarcastic and curmudgeonly old bastard most of the time.

by nicolaou in

but as i move into my early 50's i find i'm more and more comfortable in my thick, leathery hide.. please get it into your thick skull's that i don't insult or make snarky comments with the intent of hurting anyone's feelings.

that being said, if your precious feelings are hurt it's probably your fault for being a prissy, over sensitive drama queen who can't defend his argument.. i do actually love you all, it's just that most of the time you spineless pussies really get on my nerves!.

good god i feel better for that!

DarioKehl

Amen, brother! Rage on.
