No I am not going, several people have asked me over the last few days, I told them I thought it was pointless going just once a year, so I guess now they'll realise I'm not coming back.
Hello Dawn, yes I noticed the date discrepancy, what's that all about, more creepy stuff?
lv4fer, some one on this board mentioned John 6:50-60. Also this is my own thought so it,s a bit wobbly, but if the new covenant was just for k144, then the new commandment was also, as they were at the same time same occasion,John chapter 13.And in Luke 22:19,20 what does Jesus sat to keep doing in remembrance of Him? not passing away the cup and the bread.Hope that helps.

Should I stay or should I go now?
by meat pie ini know that really only i can decide,(unless i get df'd) but to-day i'm in a real quandry.
should i be honest and tell them i'm never going back, because i really have no intention of ever going back.or would that just give the orgaanization some kind of validity.
or , if this is really some kind of 'evil organization' should'nt i officially leave as a matter of urgency.matthew 24:15. i'm really just thinking out loud.

I have no family or real friends in the org. But as I have mentioned before I could use the time to tell some of them about the hippocrasy, before I get DF'd for doing so. but really what good would it do? I value your opinions.

Reminded about the memorial 3 times to-day.
by meat pie ini can't say i was invited exactly, but i got up to find a text message on my mobile phone from a 'sister' asking me if i was going and if so did i need a lift there.
then while out shopping i saw an other who asked me if i was going.
got home and soon had voice mail from an elder.

I called him back and he said, blah blah, you know I'm sure that its the memorial on Thursday.I told the last two the same thing; I always thought it was strange people only going to the memorial, like people who only go to church for Christmas. that I had thought about it a lot and that it would be insincere of me to go so no ,I would not be there. He just said ok right in a thoughtful, concerned kind of way.I suppose that's it, we'll see.

The Watchtower's "N" word.
by Lee Elder inthere is no word in watchtower speak (theocratise) that carries more emotional charge than apostate.
to be labeled an apostate is the lowest low worst than pond scum.
in jw thinking, there is more hope for a pedophile or a murderer than for an apostate.

Farkel: in the local dialect here (North Scotland) Dubs means mud or poo, generally stuck to the bottom of a welly boot! even better!

Bryant Memorial Service Report
by seven006 init is hard for me to transcibe certain feelings into written words especially since i'm not what you would consider to be a real emotional person.
i have also mastered the art of rarely showing any outward emotional expression.
i will try and do my best to give you some of the feelings i experienced today through my eyes, so please bare with me.. i drove the hour to mcminnville which is a small town about forty miles south of portland.

Memorial Scrabbling
by Demitrius inwell they are scabbling around to find as many people to attend the memorial again this year.. i walked out 3.5 years ago and have not heard anything since from the elders.
i have one that lives about 50 metres away and he is one that has not even telephoned me in all that time.
.. just the other night he turns up on my door step and hands me the usual invite!

memorial season
by sleepy inwell memorial season is upon us again.
(the witnesses like to think of one day as a season).
the jehovahs witnesses have by and large bypassed crazy ceremonies, but something that started off as almost sane has turned to the bizarre.. on the 28 march around the world groups of witnesses will be passing a glass of red wine , and a plate of unlevened bread amongst each and every person in attendance .if you are lucky, you may spot a witness nervously sip the wine and nibble the bread, but most likely the wine and bread will be left untouched.. what a crazy thing to do.. does the bead and wine really need to be passed between all people present (sometimes numbering into the hundreds) when the witness belief is that only 1444,00 have ever been able to partake?.

Is it possible that WT actually WANTS people to reject Christ's blood?
