hahahaa Zoiks. I'm sure the Tate family won't be able to have Bro. Manson over for lunch anymore, huh? (too soon?)
Anybody remember Robert Archibald? Short guy, bizarre accent, massive Napoleon complex? hahaha his mannerisms were eerily similar to Manson.

Exactly, Punk. Not to mention that I have a close older relative who was actually RAPED by a BETHELITE in a KINGDOM HALL.
So let me get this straight..... the WTBS is the true religion because we don't molest children AS MUCH as the Catholic Church does? What kind of charles manson logic is that????

Thank God for my kindle app. I read Dawkins, Dostoevesky, Shakespeare, ANYTHING other than the Joseph Goebels-like rhetoric that spews from the platform.
Example:
last sunday I looked up from my smuggled kindle and heard this speaker remark how sad it was that children are sexually abused by evil clergy. Because that has NEVER happened in this religion.
Crap like that makes me try not to listen at all, as it only serves to enrage me. I swear I wanted to throw a hand grenade on stage.
sorry i can't copy paste it as i don't have the cdubrom anymore.
(the bin man took it!).
mrs punk always leaves her book in a prominent place at the breakfast table hoping we'll read it, see the light and go grovelling back to the 7 headed beast (gb).
Punk, this reminds me of the Hate Rally's that were held in Orwell's 1984 agains the fictional revolutionary Goldstein. The people were simply told that his ideas were "evil" and "dangerous" and the people were whipped up into a frenzy of hatred at the mere image of him.
In the same way, the WTBS attacks anyone who disagrees with them or otherwise doesn't completely submit to their total authority. They liken those who disagree as being "children of Satan". This is absolutely shameful. Who they hell are they to determine why somebody has a moral objection to their particular brand of Christianity? Oh right, they are spokesmen for God and when they die they will be IMMORTAL GODS IN HEAVEN OVER THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE ALONGSIDE THE ALMIGHTY. High-control, indeed.
i was supposed to study his stuff in collage, i let slip to the elders that i was supposed to study him and they went mental.
like i was about to study the devil himself!.
i was told that he inspired the nazis and that he belived that concentration camps were a great idea.
I like Thus Spoke Zarathustra. A little difficult to read at times, but it was like the Anti-Gospels.
i received them a few days ago.
there are 50 magazines from the 70s through the 90's.
i've only been able to glance through and read a few articles but this is what struck me so far; .
Penelope and BluesBrother, thank you for posting those. They make for hilarious reading.
Jehovah has certianly blessed those faithful workers. However, I just have a few small "issues" with those experiences. We are told that God doesn't alway provide material relief and instantly solve our problems, much the way that these down-and-out fellas had happen to them. That old guy got glasses? That's awesome! But what about all the other JWs in similar situations who don't get the material things they need? Sorry, better luck next time, thanks for playing!
Those unfortunate ones may look upon Brother Divine-Glasses as being specially favored by God, since he received direct help in the form of the material things that he needed. So are they suggesting that God is a game-show host handing out prizes to lucky contestants? The WTBS thinks it's encouraging JWs with these stupid made up experiences, but in reality they are just contridicting their own doctrines.
watchtower baptizing young children.
today i uploaded a new article to my blog addressing further the subject of watchtower and baptism of young children.
the sweet little boy youll see in this blog article had no capacity whatsoever to understand the commitment he would be held to.
Something my father has occasionally stated is that some JW parents raise their children to hate Jehovah.
Man, they flip flop so much on this thing. Okay, Miz, let's say for a second that your old man is right. Well, what about parents who did everything possible to keep their kids in this religion and they still wound up leaving? Or what about parents who did NOTHING to encourage their kids in ANYTHING and their kids ended up being COs and all? It's all a crapshoot.
I know that I don't want my kids getting baptized (preferrably at all) but at least not until they can make their own decisions as ADULTS. I wouldn't let my kids get baptized at 12, then they might do something that comes naturally a few years later and end up not being able to talk to their own father.
I think I can speak for any born in JW man that all that indoctrination about Jehovah, moral cleanliness, Joseph running away from Potipher's wife, blah blah blah GOES RIGHT OUT THE FACKING WINDOW WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF PARKED IN THE WOODS IN THE BACKSEAT OF YOUR MERCURY WITH A VERY AFFECTIONATE AND VERY UNDRESSED BRUNETTE.
fellas, am I right or am I right?
Ladies, you have powerful assets that all the religious values in the world are powerless against.
3 dear friends, although i was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, i felt compelled to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to gods holy people.
4 for certain individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you.
they are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our god into a license for immorality and deny jesus christ our only sovereign and lord.. 5 though you already know all this, i want to remind you that the lord at one time delivered his people out of egypt, but later destroyed those who did not believe.
The Watchtower is a shameless self promoter.
Really, in what way?
Seriously though, great thread, Sab.
