i swear, you can't make this shit up!

for years and years growing up in this cult, i had to constantly hear from my parents, from the stage, in the literature, about "keeping your eye simple", not being "materialistic", not "having a showy display of one's wealth.

" of course, this never seemed to apply to the wealthy business owning elduhzzzz who ran and lorded it out over the congregations, but i digress.

My grand uncle, a long-time elder, wears a very expensive vintage gold watch. He's a retired teacher. Not rich. The watch was a gift. It was also a thrift store find. My aunt found it and paid thirty-five dollars. Don't presume things, turning them into "facts."

As far as I know, one isn't disfellowshipped for dating a "worldly man." More to the story than is presented.

Announcement of Elijah's Coming

by ElijahisMe in

it is with profound humility and reverence that i share a message of great significance.

in the year 2001, my son and i witnessed the birth of the kingdom of god, experiencing spiritual battles that affirm our divine calling.

as prophesied in the scriptures, my son is the elijah to come, the forerunner to jesus' second coming.. living in the wilderness by his own choosing, my son embodies the spirit and mission of elijah, preparing the way for the lord.

Careful, I was going to ask that, but didn't because I thought it might hurt his feelings. But since you asked him, he's probably just off his meds. His brother might be Napoleon.

Fatboi isn't the first x-Witness to crash and burn. But he's one of the most dramatic. Mom had a file on someone from Vancouver B. C. who suffered a similar fate, but back in the per-internet days. He sent out printed letters and sought to have the Society banned in Canada.

Leaving the Watchtower does not mean one must leave good sense and morals. When that happens it's like a bounce back effect. I mean, they go from one extreme (the Watchtower) to another (morals, beliefs, etc.)

Probably none of what I've written above makes a bit of sense. I need another coffee.
