  Special Pioneer Couple Living at a Kingdom Hall In Miami FL, get the dreaded Letter

  by James Jack in

  just got a phone call from an older sister saying that a couple that got re-assigned from bethel 4 years ago to live at their kh apartment as special pioneers, just received a letter saying "as of january 2016, your special pioneer assignment will be discontinued".. they live in a south miami kh(snapper creek congregation).. this couple had only served in bethel for 15 years before they were sent out into the special pioneer work.

  they are now in their mid 50's and the sister said that they have to find part time jobs to support themselves.. the older sister (does not have a pc or internet), says that the couple are just devastated!

  Isn't it ironic that JDubs are the most judgmental people of all? You all know what I am talking about!

  matthew 7:1-5. do not judge, or you too will be judged.

  2 for in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

  3 why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brothers eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?

  There was one of several batty old broads in our congregation who used to go around telling people that they had"lost the mark on their forehead. This used to impress my batty old foster mother until I asked,"how does she know and what implications does such a judgmental attitude have for her own mark?" Shit stirrer.

  too bad it blows the gb's dogma of a 6,000 year old human race out of the water, as does science in general.

  lol!!

  ancient structures were often built to align with celestial bodies.

  A Mormon tried to explain away radio carbon dating to me by saying that everything ages faster under water,meaning that the flood made all those fossils seem older than they are. I just walked away.

  Why doesn't God need a creator, while the Universe does?

  by Bloody Hotdogs! in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i asked this question of a jw that called on me yesterday: "if the universe requires a creator, why doesn't god?

  if the universe must have a beginning, why doesn't god?

  he claims to have an answer, but it must wait for next time he calls.. i'm hoping you guys can give me a heads-up as to what he will say.

  The Catholics have been arguing over this for centuries (St Augustine:who moves the mover?).Their reasoning,though specious,is far more interesting than anything the Borg has to say.

  TWO WITNESSES IN VITERBO (ITALY)

  by Giorgio Cardellini in

  it 'was given to man to govern alone for some time trying any form of self-government, but was not successful, then from 1914 satan has taken control over the nations, but failed, ruined land and forced men at great sacrifice and austerity.. 100 years have passed since 1914, jehovah had given one hour to the nations, the time is up, jesus christ came back at the end of 2013 and his slave was found faithful, jehovah himself has anointed with a baptism in the holy spirit, with oil of gladness more than all of his anointed brothers, he has delivered humanity enslaved, he is the chosen one, the four winds have passed (4 comets in the sky of 2013, ison, lovejoy, linear, encke) the last the saints have been chosen and their number is complete, 144,000, the heavenly tribunal was convened and then satan has been judged and fell (daniel 7:26).

  1 corinthians 10:13 - what you had to refine it is perfected, it happened!.

  the world has got a new jehovah's prophet like elijah.

  Here is the funeral talk outline. VERY discraceful.

  by stillstuckcruz in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is truly terrible.

  i just love the statement "instead of eulogizing the deceased, use the material in this outline to give a fine witness concerning the truth.

  " in other words, utterly disregard the deceased.

  My foster parents died within six months of each other 13 years ago,both of them died of cancer.When my foster parents became witnesses it cut us off from my whole family except my unbelieving foster sister. The elder who gave the talk at my foster mother's funeral did a tremendous job of healing old wounds and brining the family together. Less than six months later this same elder (ken howitt) delivered the most disgraceful travesty of a funeral talk that it split the whole family once again. He used it as an excuse to ram their beliefs down my family's throat. He made it quite clear that the only worthwhile thing that my foster father did was to become a witness. My foster sister( who had cared for him in her home through the whole thing was so upset that I thought she was having a break down). I had been out for 5 years at that point. My foster brother and I (he is still very much in) almost had a fist fight. I said that as long as he is a witness I want nothing to do with him. He said,"you never were much of a witness." I said,"Stephen, that is the best thing you have ever said to me." Then the callous bastards used the occasion to try to get me back in!

  hey i was just wondering if you guys had any ideas on how to keep my brain occupied while i'm at an assembly tommorow.

  maybe besides tallying the number of times they say jehovah and jesus or counting how many people are wearing red.

  i want to keep myself from going insane or having some kind of panic attack lol.

  pandemonium broke out at the headquarters of the watchtower bible and track society as hundreds of former bethel workers protested being released from their assignments and told to vacate the premises.

  the governing body members barely escaped the wrath of the mob, some without the shirt on their backs.
