Good Grief.
I could not have said it better. Why do people have to take themeselves so seriously.

the more fanatical the religion, the more it seems to lack a sense of self reflective irony.. .

waisted days and waisted nites.. freddy fender..
I still havent found what I am looking for - gospel version.
I added this video to compliment my prior comment. In my exit from the watchtower I really struggled with finding the truth. This song, which sounds great as a gospel, describes my struggle.
12 years later. I have no interest in finding the truth in religion. But I believe I have found what I was looking for.

I noticed a few U2 comments. Here is mine that defined my search for the truth while a witness:
I still haven't found what i looking for
with all the articles about trying to keep kids in and not learn ttatt, etc, i can see one day they will use the kh's for class during the day and any parents who volunteer to teach, can count that as time.
lol .

Where would they get the teachers to teach at a kingdom hall school? There may be a few withesses with the appropriate degrees to teach, but certainly not enough for an organized school.
Based upon just that issue, I doubt that there will ever be a JW school at the local kingdom hall.
i have asked the people who are following my fb page and who live in chile to take lots of pictures and even videos if they can of the chilean flag in the kingdom halls... can't wait for when the pictures start rolling in!!.

I'm going to tell you that no kingdom hall or witness would display a flag in their window with out getting their arses kicked by the GB.
I disagree, it is all about keeping property investments secure. The society owned no substantive properties in Malawi, so screw them.
someting happened yesterday that i thought might be noteworty enough to relate to you here.. mrs. eyz and i were invited to my new boss's home for his annual end of summer party.
it's a pretty big deal....his is a name known locally (i'll call him j.r.) a really nice interesting guy who's held a number of high level and politically connected jobs.
there was to be music, dancing, wine and reprotedly lots of well dressed, well educated, well to do and influential people (oh yes...and us) in attendance.. anyway we thought we'd make an occasion out of it and got ourselves spiffed up which involved new outfits and extra mirror time before we left home.
Best story I hear all day. I always wonder if I would have the sam courage as you displayed in a spur of the moment event. Good job!
i came accross.
of people when they are dying.
i immediately thought of people lives spent in the 'truth'.
Interesting - While I am not on my deathbead my wish is that I am willing to accept greater risks. I am of the belief that calculate risks and success are directly correlated. This is my only life I want to take it for a run of a lifetime.

This story is old news but just as shocking as ever for those seeing it for the first time.
There should be some corporate guidelines related to investments. The ethical values of an organization are top down. If the top does not follow ethical guidelines then they cannot expect that lower level of management (i.e.e COs and elders) will have any higher ethical framework.
what was the most outrageous comment you ever heard during a wt study?.
.
please share your experiences..
My last meeting the CO said "we don't think we have the truth... We KNOWwe have the truth!"
The way he held on to the word "know" displayed a level of arrogance that I found disgusting.
That was it - last meeting ever.
