she has had 42 years of training and indoctrination.
i'm feeling sort of nervous, but also looking forward to it.
this will be our second scheduled session together, and we never did agree on a topic.. i'm assuming she will come with an agenda and another prepared presentation.
Tell them that your house has been officially and formally been turned into a church to reach those that Christ wants to save. The ask if they will join hands with you to help sanctify this new building that the LORD is using to bring ones into being "born again" etc etc throw as much Jesus Freak lingo in there as possible. This will prevent them coming back into your home.
Also for added effect, tell them that some in your group have noticed a aura around the building.

so its now all clear!.
the reason why that damned wt article several months back said the quote:.
"we may be asked to do something by jehovahs organization, and we should be ready to obey even if it doesnt seem reasonable from a human standpoint or not".
God will take care of our pets,..
God speaking "Hey Angel,..... yeah you!,.. Why don't you go down there to Earth and "take care of that pet" for me,..wink wink, if you know what I mean" tee hee

im sure that many have had an experience where we try and keep little kids "occupied" while on a boring trip, such as a car ride or plane flight.. we come up with "games" like..."lets see how many green cars we can count", or "lets try and see who can sit still for the longest time".
"the winner gets a prize!".
obviously, until they are wise enough to cotton on, all we are doing is keeping them occupied to prevent them asking things like "are we there yet?!".
The WTBTS should personally be held for global warming with all the wasted fossil fuels.

they announced last week that the new atanta assembly hall has thus far raised 3.4 million dollars.
my local told that will become the society's come may 1. i wonder how that will go over with the ones who have been contributing to this fund..
DD,..
How do you know about Ray Nagin, are you from the NO area?

the watchtower arranged to have a letter read announcing that elders would now be apponted by circuit overseers.. any elders on this forum know how this will be different from the current arrangement for appointing elders.. it would be nice to see a schematic with boxes showing how it used to be and how it will be in the future..
I would think that if this is intended to be used as a shield for liability that it would only cover, if at all, the elders MS that have been appointed SINCE the change in procedure. So the ones that were appointed by the FDS pre Sept1 2014 would still be on the hook for any issues.
Or possibly do you think that after Sept 1 2014 and also after a CO visit, if one of the appointed men did something awry the WTBTS couls hang the blame on the CO for not removing the person, since it falls into his hand at that point in time.,

i use the word clinging, as i feel that is what i am doing.
as far as my knowledge of science, namely chemistry is concerned, i am satisfied there is evidence of a creator.
i am happy to believe this.
Here is a short 6 minutes or so video from Matt Dillahunty sharing why

Anyone able to understand what he said just when he started talking out loud? Just before the "Rest In Peace generation that will not pass away" is hard for me to understand. Kinda sounded like he had been imbibing. I think that I remember hearing that he downed a glass of wine at the memorial.

i am about to initiate the project that has been many years in the making.
those close to me know what it is.
i have a unique situation, and i am going to capitalize on it.. i hate to be this cryptic and shit, but i just wanted to let those who know in on that it is about to go down.. wish me luck!.

poor sod.
i felt quite sorry for him in the end.. for context, i was brought up as a jw since i was very young.
i left 6 years ago (faded) a little before turning 30. i was on here a lot around that time but under a different profile that's no longer active.. for the past 18 months, i'm back living in the territory of the congregation i grew up in.
Data-Dog,.. Really?
a few official instructions jw delegates are being told leading up to the international conventions.
congregation secretaries are holding conference calls and then relating the instructions to the congregation.. atlanta - do not drive to convention, parking will not be available.
take public transportation; attendants will be on all public transit and able to assist.. dallas - attendants will be on site at all hotels to make sure delegates leave the hotel at their assigned times and take their assigned route.
How about a fake wallet with a bit of money in it for the contribution boxes. Someone needs to put some fake money with jwfacts.com on it to stuff into all the boxes. Some at each venue would let them know that there are apostates at each and every convention.
