  I must say FMF, that for a moment your rant made me want to watch this Annual Meeting for myself. . . .

  I'm gonna watch "Mysteries of Laura" instead.

  Have you heard the one about "Back to the Future" Predicting 911??

  2. entertainment

  when somebody posted this on fb, i was anxious to see how ridiculous it would be, probably worse then the gb prophecies, etc.

  after watching the clip, i honestly don't know what to believe.

  at the very least it's very entertaining and interesting.

  I'm confused, he's talking about himself, isn't he?

  Those bible verses seem to describe JW's of today to a "T".

  Ravenous wolves in sheep's clothing.

  I have to disagree. They are not ravenous wolves in sheep's clothing.

  I think they are ravenous wolves in cheap suits from JCPenney's.

  UPDATE:

  I think my efforts have paid off.

  I have not seen one table/cart on any of the three campuses I've been to this semester.

  Maybe it's just chance, but I find it very odd since I've seen them on each of these campuses for years, and now after my complaint last spring (and the director of student involvement's promise to hold them to a university code of conduct wrt proselytizing) there is. . . . .. . NOTHING.

  Should I associate with this person?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  so there is a guy who wants me to associate with him.

  but there are some strange things about him, such as:.

  he hears "direction from unseen" forces.. he thinks the idea of slavery was ok.. he likes killing animals and splashing their blood around and making huge bonfires of carcasses smoke all day long.. he has one wife, or maybe two, but is ok with having lots of other sleeping partners as well.. he likes another person who slept with his own daughters.. he thinks women should be subservient and "keep their place".. he frowns on education.. he thinks killing in a war is ok if they deserve it...even babies should be killed.. he is often asking for money.. he thinks that pyramids foretell the future, and that only a few people can explain divine truths to him, except their explanations have changes many, many times...often contradicting other teachings.... etc..... get it?

  Don't really want to judge, but probably not a good idea. . . . .

  Intriguing - but Unsubstantiated!

  by The Searcher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  according to one source on a western european 'apostate' website, the org's plan is to abandon the name "jehovah's witnesses" in the future, and replace it with "worshippers of jehovah.".

  http://www.bruderinfo-aktuell.de/index.php/fixnews/#comment-4313 .

  the gist of the account appears to be a repeat of rutherford's re-branding and debunking of old predictions made by the previous shower of fakers.

  I am entirely convinced they could change their name to "JoHoz Zombies" and 90% of them wouldn't bat an eye.

  It would be a rich spiritual blessing/the celestial chariot moving forward/the End must be soooooooo close.

  No 'Tight Pants' policy is now official - classed as 'disturbing'

  by wizzstick in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in short:- tight pants is no longer just a am3 hang up (or is that a hang up on the well hung?

  )- brothers who have effeminate body language are flagged up- as are sisters with 'masculine' hair styles or dress- such dress is 'disturbing to the congregation'- the above must heed the (repeated) counsel from the elders...or they get stripped of the right to share on the ministry- however...this will not be revealed (announced) to the congregation.

  wow.

  Ok. . . don't have time to go through this entire thread.. . .

  But has anyone mentioned that while someone wearing "tight pants" will no longer have the "privilege" of engaging in field service . . .

  That even convicted pedophiles are not sanctioned in this way?

  this article suggests that there are projects being halted, but chelmsford isn't one of them.

  can someone from the uk tell me if this article was written by a reputable and known publisher?

  plans for huge jehovah's witnesses hq continues.

  Hell, having a couple Bethelites in a construction trailer "guarding" the property could be considered "construction" as far as the society is concerned.

  How many of us are 'perfectionists'?

  by FayeDunaway in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i made a medium level mistake at work today, and when i make mistakes it really shakes me up and takes me a long time to recover.

  it completely rattles me, makes me feel awful about myself.

  my mind keeps going back to the mistake reliving how i could have let it happen.

  Yep. I'm my own worst critic as far as this kind of stuff. Drives me batty.
