  What the heck.

  I couldn't believe it, Norm Brekkie and Tom Combs are still alive.

  Norm is so out of it he couldn't tell you what day of the week it was.

  I talked to Larry Fisher he is gone mentally also. He couldn't even remember when he went to Bethel.

  Then I called up Daryl Christenson. He wasn't so friendly. I forgot I had sent him the book I wrote about reincarnation called "Your Crazy Life". He wanted to know my standing with the organization. I said "I was out." He said he couldn't talk to me. He told me, I needed to go to the local elders. Funny he has been at Bethel for over 52 years and an elder for most that time. yet he couldn't talk to me but the local elders can.

  Go figure!

  P.S. He said he read my book cover to cover. I was very surprised.

  my friend has been married 25 years.

  he works with another jw.

  they kissed and he touched her nipples but did not have sex with her.

  It all depends, how long did he play with her nipples a few minutes or hours? The elders will ask all kinds of questions about this. They will ask what he was thinking about when he was doing this. They will ask if he was enjoying this activity. They will ask about the size and shape of her nipples. This could be all quit complicated. A very serious matter.

  However if he is a pedophile and there wasn't 2 or more witnesses to the act they would just let go with a harsh warning.

  So on their web site it says.

  
  

  We seek to maintain an upbuilding, entertaining, safe, open, and intellectually stimulating environment, where mature Christians can exercise their God-given "freeness of speech." (2 Corinthians 3:12) A few principles can help us to do that:

  
  We reserve the right to edit or delete posts, at our discretion, to meet with our code of conduct rules.

  
  

  Freeness of speech?.....Say anything you want as long as we agree with it. Yep they are the watchtower bible and truck society alright

  "We trust our parents and like to think they are putting their children's interests above their own. They know how hard life can be and therefore would want their kids to have a decent education instead of holding them back, just as an example."

  Your right of course, except when the religion you happened to be raised in tell you to put their policies a head of their own family well being ....How many parents have even killed their own children by not giving them blood?

  I apologized to my son today, in person. It wasn't just the JW thing. His life kind of went to shit after his divorcee. I have become a giant pinata for him. The JW thing was just one of many ways he can point out my short comings....which of course are many.

  He has plenty of time to sit around and think about how screwed over he is. The many poor choices he and other people like me have made that has created the hell he is now in.

  The blame game....

  Funny how family members know all your hot buttons. I already feel bad enough about my many wasted years as a Jehovah's Witness and than to get it all thrown back into my face.....salt on the wound.

  I have forgiving my messed up parents for the bull shit they handed down to me. My son was in it for only 21 years and me over 50.

  But your right I do need to apologize to him.

  As they say "The road to hell is paved with good intentions."

  Funny isn't it how we all want some slack cut for ourselves but justice for everyone else.

  Hey Broken Back Watchtower I truly love you man but remember we can't talk about Ayahuasca here or anything else that might expand ones conscience.

  Time?

  My children and I have been out for 17 years...

  Even my grand children are dealing with the effects of how my children (their parents) have been raised.

  The sad true is, it will take a couple of generations to get this nasty shit completely out of our lives.

  No after leaving Bethel, I decided I would never be in a position of oversight because I saw what power did to people. I probably hold the record for being MS for the longest period in the society's history... lol

  Go Bags, Safe houses and cartoon of two kids.

  by scruffmcbuff in

  2. beliefs

  i have been out a good 10+ years and until recently didnt pay much attention to what the jehovahs are up to.. why have they taken this turn with the bunker videos and making all the brainwashed people like my parents pack a go bag.

  now let me just clarify.

  im a military man i believe everyone should have an element of preparedness canned goods,bottled water and a bug out bag is a great addition ( ill stop waffling on about that now).. but what concerns me is the fact they are advising elderly people to bug out.

  Go bags?

  I guess Jehovah doesn't have the ability to save people where ever they happen to be. They must get a bag and move to a new location...and that is the spot Jehovah can save you at.

  cool aid anyone?
