The contempt of Anthony Morris: the face doesn't lie.

by freemindfade in

i have noticed something even long before even looking into ttatt, something about morris bothered me.

i am personally very attuned to body language, facial expressions and general subtleties in human interaction.

there was something about his face that really bothered me, and i will explain it.

This is a great thread. You absolutely nailed it, FREEMINDFADE.

where we're at, we won't get it as bad as nyc, long island or new england.

even so, my university is closed until wednesday morning, and we're expecting well over a foot of snow.. anyone else out there "hunkering down"?.

STILLIN - I think Albany will fare about the same as us. . . This seems to be more of a coastal storm.

PONTOON - I don't know. . . You guys are right in the middle. . .

JONATHAN DRAKE - yes, stay safe everyone!

Re: Experienced Attorneys and Paralegals Needed at Bethel

by pixel in

i thought we needed carpenters and plumbers in paradise...oh well... the hypocrisy.

to all bodies of elders in the united states branch territoryre: experienced attorneys and paralegals needed at bethel.

dear brothers:.

Well, from my experience I would say they have pretty slim pickings as far as attorneys.

In my decades of being a witness, I only met one witness attorney, and it was someone already working at bethel as an attorney.

Was Cynthia Franz ever disfellowshipped?

by breakfast of champions in

i seem to remember that she was not ever dfd even though she was present at the fateful meal, but i don't remember where i saw that.

it seemed like they specifically targeted raymond, but cynthia was left alone.. i tried searching jwn, but the search feature seems to be not working.. also tried googling the answer, but to no avail..

Thanks everyone, esp. COMPOUND COMPLEX and BLONDIE for the inside info.

THE DEPRESSED SOUL - I am quite certain that Ray Franz had not a single doubt regarding his decision or a "what-if-they-are-right" moment. But if you are still having those thoughts, I would recommend seeing a therapist or psychologist who specializes in persons who are abused or have PTSD. They won't be able to refute or disprove doctrine, but might be able to help you "rip out" some of the leftover "programming" that is contributing to your doubts regarding TTATT.

JW's Don't Really Believe Satan is Real ...

by TTATTelder in

if you walked up to any jw and said "i just spoke to satan" they would think you lost your mind.

while that reaction makes perfect sense in the real world, in wt land it doesn't add up.

here's why i say this -jw's are supposed to believe the following:.

breakfast of champions

I don't know. I think quite a few are convinced he is real.

Why is the world so bad? Satan.

Why are families falling apart? Satan.

Why did my husband cheat on me? Satan.

If you go to college, who will you be learning from? Satan.

Why does ebola exist? Satan.

Honestly, I think satan is more important to JW theology than God.

I hope Armageddon doesn't come before the new Star Wars movie comes out

by Zoos in

ever had this thought about an upcoming movie?.

and then i would feel guilty for putting my entertainment desires ahead of god's kingdom.. .

shameless!.

I worried that ARMAGEDDON would come before "Return of the Jedi" was released.

What was that? 32 years ago?

I think "this system" will still be here when "The Force Awakens" comes out.

CAPPYTAN - same sentiments as you when Phantom came out with the JarJar character. ARMAGEDDON didn't come fast enough!
