  This is because it's a religion that is only interested and concerned in outward appearance.

  This is also the real reason why they "hate" pedophilia.

  Ok, I'm now convinced that GC is NoRoomForGeorge reborn.

  I'll second that BALTAR.

  Ok, here is a breakdown of the reaction to the meeting from my family organized their Dub status:

  Uber Dubs with somewhat somewhat open but still brainwashed minds: didn't discuss much with them today, but the afternoon was filled with "goofs" on "tight pants" and tardiness. So basically no one in this camp is running for the hills, but they certainly thought it was over the top.

  "Weak" Dubs (my favorite people, and why I'm sticking around): wife had very brief conversation with this family member, but will talk again later. Basically, the husband is flipping out. He says what he heard was stupid, sexist, bigoted nonsense and is completely disgusted. Yay!!

  My wife: so just looking at a thread I made about two weeks ago where I posited that my wife was a little more than "half out" after watching GBTV. . . . ..

  http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/286828/1/Using-the-C-Word-With-My-Wife

  After yesterday, I think she's about 90% out and going fast! Almost too fast! Where are the brakes on this thing?

  Again, I must thank the GB. I couldn't get my family out of the cult without you!

  My messagew to my mother post "branch talk".

  my wife went out of curiosity.

  she is out enough to where it doesn't affect our marriage, but she keeps it a secret from her family and others.

  she is beginning to understand what it means to give over your thinking to an organization, and once she works that out there will be no going back.. so she went to the branch visit.

  & They Say “Privileges” In The Congregation Isn’t a Status

  by thedepressedsoul in

  1. watchtower

  im sure you all have heard at one point or read that being an elder or ms isnt a position higher up but rather that you work under the congregation.. anthony morris just threw that out the window!

  i have privileges in the congregation and even i was offended and felt bad for anyone who was 23 or older and not a ms!.

  he goes on to tell this story of how a sister wanted to marry a brother and that anthony morris discouraged it because he was 23 and not an ms yet.

  If I had a dime for every sister I've known who married a ms/elder/bethelite and is now divorced from their scumbag husband, I'd be rich.

  Comment from my wife: 'We're supposed to be in the last of the last days and here they have gathered together at once 700 000 people. There are sooo many deep, encouraging, amazing things that they could have said. But instead, they decided to talk about Bethelites getting to work late and tight pants. The governing body are nothing more than egomaniacs.'

  Are we approaching the Waco/Jonestown/Heaven's Gate finale?

  large groups are being gathered to video screens to blatantly worship the governing body.

  this self-proclaimed faithful slave show no signs of softening their treatment of the flock.

  their backs are against the wall and the legal world is turning against them in a big way.

  Like any parasite worth it's salt, they want to keep their their "host" just alive enough to live off of them.

  Why not have an encouraging hour or two telling everyone how great they are?? Well, abusers are......abusive!

  You summed it up well, DATA DOG.

  LEAVING QUIETLY - I think you may have nailed it. Instead of Saturday afternoon at the movies, it's at the Kingdom Hall stuffing a couple tens in the box.

  Has anyone gone from Mormon to JW or vice versa?

  I personally know of a mother/daughter who went from Mormonism to JWism.

  Out of the frying pan, into the fire.

  Mormonism is "demonic" according to them.

  Fascinating.
