Selling property is always, and always will be bad business.
The Rebel.
does anyone have an accounting of those properties?
which properties and possible value of sale?.
sounds like that the watchtower may want to sell quickly?

today i read a news topic about the pope in the us.
of course, we were all indoctrinated that the pope is the devil himself.
but, did you see a gb member or a local wts official ever giving attention to a paralyzed witness?
The only time I saw a member of the G.B was when he gave a talk at the conversion. It saddened and surprised me that he seemed to have nothing better to talk about than " designer" stubble.

here in france we received instruction to stand back from the cart.. so you can see "angels" witnessing with a cart by its own, no one around, and no one cares, i stayed a while, did my shopping, and half an hour later the "poor angel" was still there on his own.... i guess wherever is the publisher, he s hard working counting his hours..
Fisherman." But an enemy will not be given mercy"
The Rebel: With respect that comment sounds a bit " Heil Hitler". Surely a merciful God would want reconciliation with an enemy?

when the org implements its bethelite "genocide" and demotes many members of the "worldwide order of special full-time servants of jehovahs witnesses" into lowly regular pioneers, many more trollies will have to be found in order for such ones to rack up their required monthly hours.. how many are actually going to be shocked by this into waking up?

The Searcher (Q) " how many are going to be shocked by this in to waking up?"
The Rebel (A) It saddens me but I honestly believe most would rather be miserable and unawakened,

In my area it was a common accurance to see the cart on the large suare each Saturday morning, ( weather permitting). This has now escalated and I see a cart, on both the large and smaller square on anyday that I venture in to town.
In my opinion these carts could be a very successful way to witness. Why not carts in the park ? Why not carts in the main shopping centre? (which is outside the city centre) Why not a cart outside the train station?
So my observation is that I don't feel the enthusiasm is their, it is simply done as a duty, In my opinion those standing by the cart get the sattisfaction of thinking themselfs zelouse witnesses as they stand away from the cart and contently talk amongst themselfs.
But the simple fact is the carts are an excellent way to target, identify and educate people who have a spiritual interest. If the carts are not effective in my opinion it is an incitement on the organisations general desire to make it work.

do any of you ex-jw's still believe in god?
even with the new rebranding/softening of this religion, i still don't see how people can believe in him.
the god of the old testimate is an angry murderer who approved rapes and slavery and killed thousands of men, women and children.
LaureanM ( Q) " Does Anyone Still Believe in God?
The Rebel ( A) I still believe in Holy Love. So I try to respect the " Dogs" that call themselfs " Gods".
And if you spell" God" backwards what have you got?
The answer is " DOG"
So what am I trying to say?
I believe in Dogs, and I try to respect all forms of physical existence, be it dogs,cats or elephants.( Now an elephant is a God in the Hindu religion)

so i was fooled by the witnesses.
what can i learn from that?
not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.
The Rebel " Shall we now close this thread folks?"
YES! YES! YES!
The Rebel. " Well then let me think. What will be my honest final word?"
WHO CARES, REBEL,..just shut the FICK UP !!

Viviane: " Nope not in the least"
Well let me spell it out for you in black and white.
A) I believe each poster creates a little note book, a history which reveals how they interact with other posters.
B) I am interested in exploring new lines of thought with kind, intelligent people who I feel a connection with.
C) In my option if I feel that connection isn't their, then it's probably best to close communication with that poster.
D) I mean it's not as though our reason for posting is to be confrontational is it?
Good morning to you.

Viviane :
I believe my post about " Goodwins Law" was an interesting assumption that I am entiltled to. Maybe to make my point I should have instead used an illustration about a CAT CHASING ITS PREY. Personally I always route for the BIRD, because I like to wake up and hear the birds sing LOUD.
Its definitely my assumption forums should be a pleasurable leisure activity. Of course we are free to RESPECTIVLY disagree, but perhaps with some posters, the wisest choice would be to not disagree at all. That way the cat can be free, to leap, jump across fences, maybe even break its neck but the bird is to far away to care and no longer even hears the meows.
I hope that makes sence.

when you look through a keyhole, and see the person you once were?.
as for myself, i am just pleased i have mended my ways.
i realise ( now) my time as a witness was a keyhole that looked in to the ground, and licked the elders arse.
Thanks for the replys.
Well I guess I am embarrassed I fell for selling the product.
And what was the product.
A) THE FANTASTIC GIVE- AWAY OFFER, was ETERNAL LIFE. Which strangely nobody seemed to want.
Also at 21, I was also a little embarrassed by the vehicle I owned. Which was a left foot and a right foot. And if I hadn't spent so much time knocking doors, offering people eternal life, I could have earned some money and driven a car. And 21 year olds with cars weren't virgins, but 21 year old witness kids ....well actually this is getting embarresing.
