"You came in that thing? You're braver than I thought."
"Nice"
"I love you"
"I know"
Guess what pair said those two lines.

now you will have peace for eternity.

paradisewas it really paradise to be in paradise?adam and eve never were held by a mother, never cuddled and sung to with a lullaby nor nursed or coddled with tenderness or any human familial embrace.
the first humans (adam and eve) never learned to toddle surrounded by brothers, sisters, aunts and uncles and grandparents cheering them on.
the entire experience of childhood was excised surgically like a trauma patient awakening from an accident with amnesia.adam and eve were never in a neighborhood with other kids forming friendship bonds for life and exchanging dreams and hopes for a future they were building in their community.
The first "marriage" (where was the ceremony recorded?) was an arranged mating with no choice involved and certainly no selection. Adam "chose" his own rib to marry! Yipes.
One of the many BLATANT LIES the WT pulled over our eyes for years - wedding ceremony - bs.
i believe that many witnesses are tired out or at least tiring out.
i know....... because i am tired out!.
imagine going to college for 20 years not knowing when college is finished.
TOTLY AGREE!! I said for years, imaging if you went to college to become "something" but the college you choose just never graduates people.
Now Cardiologists and Astrophysicists, are taught and graduate, and go off and do their things as professionals.
So what is SOO HARD about JW teachings that you can never be good enough to graduate?
WHAT A JOKE (that was played on me and millions of others)
ok, so hot on the heels of the announcement at the agm, we have been told that there are probably only 12 magazines left!.
yes, there will be only 3 wt each year, and 3 awakes.... and that they will do this for two years, then reprint those issues.... so yes, the "abundance of spiritual food" is limited to 12 more magazines..... surely, this is proof of the end coming so soon!?!
😉.
I will be ALL Web Based after that I bet.

this was an oral argument to dismiss the $4000/day fine.
both sides presented their arguments and now the judges will write an opinion (30 to 90 days).
A lawyer told me once - winning is one thing - getting paid is another.

The WT knows no shame.
my freind (who is also out) and i were talking about this the other night.
i was a born-in, 3rd generation jw and she converted when she was in her late 20's.. when she left, she said that she knew the world wasn't as bad as she was told as a jw, so she knew she would be fine.
also, she still had lots of "worldly" family who welcomed her back with open arms.. it was harder for me - i had nobody in the "world", no family or freinds.
Born ins hands down. No question.
i have a bad feeling that the annual report in the form that we can analytically use, will no longer be available.
according the post agm letter, it said "this information will be published in the 'about us' section of jw.org" however when you go to that page, there are already a country by country listing of statistics.
the problem is that, the numbers displayed at the moment are not the whole story we used to get.
You KNOW whatever stats they publish from now on will be only those that make them look good.
I guess the TRUTH HURTS:)
this post was published today, some strange changes within jw.org.

I fear that this quote is relevant in regards to the WT.
“The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.”
i think the watchtower is the only organization that can promise a product (everlasting life) and never deliver it.. what fools we've been to believe this nonsense..
Yea - the same tool as ALL Religion.
No one wants to DIE.
