thought she was gonna take a pic of me on the sneak.
im df'd...been df'd for over 19 years already.
so she probably would have gotten away with it without anyone knowing.....except that her flash was on.
Someone will rat her out to the elders lol.
in jw land having such was verboten.
who are some of yours and why?.
1. nikola tesla - greatest inventor ever, and the only one i know of who was a true scientist as well.. 2. elon musk - there is a reason he chose the great inventor's name for his masterpiece work...also has a serious pair.... 3. jim morrison - brilliant and mad poet.. 4. mike krzyzewski - the epitome of success.. 5. maya angelou - brilliant humanistic poet and writer.. 6. albert einstein - do i actually have to qualify this?.
1) Thomas Jefferson: at best, an atheist. At worst, a deist. He was a lawyer, a scientist, a historian, a philosopher, a meteorologist, an architect, a revolutionist and a ruler of a new nation. What a badass (and don't come at me for the whole "slave owner" thing -- I get it. Google the fallacy of presentism before you jump down my throat. I'm highlighting his positive attributes for this thread.)
2) Tied for 2nd, Charles Darwin, Marie Curie & Carl Sagan
3) Tied for 3rd, Hitchens and Dawkins.
4) Tied for 4th, Bill Nye and Neil deGrasse Tyson
5) tied for 5th, Quinten Tarantino, Steven Spielberg, Seth McFarlane, Trey Parker & Matt Stone
6) definitely deserving to be in my top 10... Lady Gaga
7) Ray Franz, you know why!
8) Ronald Reagan
9) tied: Ellen, for her LGBT activism/raising awareness and Dorthea Dix
10) Michael Jackson
the witnesses are really challenged socially.
in their own little world, they seem oblivious to the niceties of saying thank you or that they are sorry for some minor wrong.
these things help life go more smoothly in the real world, like a social lubricant.. i'm simply appalled at the fact that an elder's son, who was married more than a year ago, has never sent out thank you notes for all of the gifts that the congregation gave him for his wedding.
And let's not even get started on their tipping behavior.
Ok, on second thought, let's!
short cliphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faru4hjj7rc
lett's peanut brain fires off very odd motor reflexes when he's spouting bullshit.
He does that weird side-to-side dance any time he's about to lie or say something colossally stupid.
It looks like he's approaching a urinal.
It looks like a dog so nervous it's about to piss itself.
It looks like FFWD footage of elephants' swaying during their fire hose bath time at the zoo (google it).
do the lottery.
celebrate my child's birthday.
sign workmates birthday cards.
I never once in my adult life donated a single penny. And I was the accounts servant. The last time I did, I was a preteen and it wasn't even my money that I put into the box.
I always wondered how many others never donated at all.
according to this scientist.

oil, banking, armaments, stock-markets, and society as we know it, all evaporating into thin air thanks to this.. nope - but it will revive tesla stories.
in short:- tight pants is no longer just a am3 hang up (or is that a hang up on the well hung?
)- brothers who have effeminate body language are flagged up- as are sisters with 'masculine' hair styles or dress- such dress is 'disturbing to the congregation'- the above must heed the (repeated) counsel from the elders...or they get stripped of the right to share on the ministry- however...this will not be revealed (announced) to the congregation.
wow.
Side note: I'd love to see the browsing history and hard drive contents on ToMo3's personal computer. I'd bet my life savings that he has stuff on there that he condemns publicly. And tight pants would be nothing compared to everything else.
Just a hunch. Again, it is my opinion that this guy is deviant and dirty. His actions betray something disturbingly perverse.
today's watchtower:.
obey us, obey us even when it seems strange, obeying our man made hierarchy equates to obeying god, sacrifice your own interests, work for us, don't be independent, put your own interests aside, obey some more, preach for us, build for us, enjoy it, obey some more, forgive when we are jerks to you and mistreat you, accept your changed assignment even if it seems cruel and doesn't make sense, don't complain if we move you (eg.
) because you might have to move in the new world, remember you are being trained to obey, remember to put your own interests aside, that's the way we are designed to live - it will only make you happy!

F**k this disgusting cult. It's a joyless, blood guilty wasteland.
and I've said this before: I wish nothing but pain and evil for the men on the governing body. If prayer worked or black magic was real, I assure you I'd direct the most powerful beam of suffering right at them. Unfortunately, all I can do is hope; and if something terrible does happen to them, I WILL enjoy the schadenfreude guilt-free.
