@ ÁrbolesdeArabia - You crack me up!
I AM WALTER WHITE ACTUALLY who told you??
i just posted a new article entitled "jw apologists keep commenting".
there seems to be an influx of asleep jws that are trying to fight back against what they perceive to be threats to their faith by trying to refute our websites and forums.. several are currently making the rounds voting down webpage comments and youtube videos, as well as the dissident jw blogosphere.. here's a screengrab from the article:.
here's the youtube video i made to accompany it:.
@ ÁrbolesdeArabia - You crack me up!
I AM WALTER WHITE ACTUALLY who told you??
hi everyone, its been over 4 months and i have not heard a response from the elders.
i called one of them a few weeks back.
he said they sent it to bethel and haven't heard back yet.
Gregg you are in the clear that is my opinion my friend. They have chewed on your letter for FOUR months and you have even called Elder Ron Dare saying, "What's going on?"
You boldly told him that it was wrong to DF people for smoking due to health reasons when he himself is so morbidly obese. Which is worse? Smoking one cig. or having an extra 100 pounds alone behind that huge belt?
Due to your unique situation and the fact that you were baptized prior to 1985 when question #2 was changed I think they are going to leave you alone. Not bc they care about you, but bc it is the safest way for them to protect their ASSets.
Either way, you are a strong, intelligent guy and have saved me from the frying pan many times, and I for one know what it is like to have "a friend that sticks closer than a brother".
I LOVE YOU MAN!

i did a search and came up with some posts related to san francisco, but i couldn't figure out how to find more recent onesthey were from nearly a dozen years ago!
i was wondering if anyone lives around sf, as well as if anyone is around my age?
i'm early 30's.
Hey nibbled I sent you a PM!
it's been a terrible economy these last few years.
i had a very successful loan brokerage and watched that crash and burn in 2011. i went back to my previous firm in the computer industry that was struggling after i left.
it seemed like a good match.
@WH - Dude one door closes another opens up...IMO you could start a blog and really shine talking about TTATT...in a snarky way of course!
guys, i have faded about a 1 month ago...now 1 elder, who i consider a friend as a person and like a father is texting me.... i don't hate the guy, i consider him my friend even though i don't believe what he believes...he's telling me he hasnt seen me at the meetings and he's worried...he asked me if i could go in service with him this weekend...i have not responded, i dont know what to say since i don't want to go through no judicial committee or something like that...nobody there knows i know ttabtt...any suggestions on how i should respond?.
thanks!.
Good for you bro- hang in there and stay the course. Lots of us here to help if you need it!
i've published a new article on my blog about the agony that people go through in seeking reinstatement.
part one includes a personal experience of one that crawled throught this field of glass in order to be able to regain a relationship with a close friend that is asleep in the jw movement.. part two will have a transcript (and accompanying audio on my youtube channel) from a sister that recorded her entire reinstatement hearing, including what the elders said about her after she was dismissed from the room while they deliberated.. here's a peek at the article on jwstruggle:.
.. .. .. there are likely a number of you on jwnet that have "been there and back again" and gone through it.. what was the hardest thing about getting reinstated?.
So many people are commenting on this it's amazing how many are seeking or have sought reinstatement that end up here and in other parts of cyberspace.
commentary press has made the book "the gentile times reconsidered" available to download.. visit this page for the download location.. [link deleted by request of poster].
Commentary Press has been left to wither and die on the vine these last 2+ years and the website has not been actually selling hardcopy books for some time.
Ray's legacy continues to crumble, so people try and do what they feel is right to keep it alive.
Why can't we easily obtain these vitally-important books? Nobody really seems to know...
Let's hope the above promise will actually happen before another couple years elapse.
I do not agree with a lot of his doctrine and eschatology, but any forum where people are free to discuss the Watchtower leadership and policies free of judgement is a good thing IMO.
More and more of these will hopefully continue to pop up not less!
what does everyone think for that term?
i am diggin it!
i am thinkin no one has coined this?
Well Flipper has graciously agreed to let me co-host the upcoming annual meetup on July 5-8, 2013 at Lake Tahoe.
We are going to re-christen it "TTATT-Fest" and plan to start advertising it soon so more folks will have time to plan and save to get there.
BE THERE OR BE SQUARE!
More info coming soon...
