Seen that a number of times myself dbq. One sister started a rumor that another sister didn't wear any underwear. This sister told the elders about it and he asked if she approached the sister in question. She of course didn't lol. -

I can't imagine how this will all be played out at Barffest 2016 R.C. All this talk of loyalty will hopefully turn more away from this cult.
Just glad the wife and I skipped the meeting yesterday. That wt article was bowel batter.

Nice post!😊
If God were truly blessing the dubs then we would see mass conversions similar to what was seen in the first century.

Watchtower's upcoming teaching
by biblexaminer innewest watchtower revelations from heaven indicate the importance of color in teaching the truth about god.. the governing body has prayed fervently over this new teaching and jehovah's witnesses the world around receive it gratefully as "food at the proper time".. in view of the importance placed on color, as found in god's holy word the bible, the governing body has deemed it necessary for a new understanding on important spiritual matters.
(see link).... http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1200001009?q=color&p=par.
we can see from the aforementioned information that color in the scriptures should not be neglected, as it plays a vital role in understanding god's plan for mankind.

So glad to be leaving this cult now. Pretty soon the dubs will be back to just handing a "read me" card at the doors cause they will be too stupid to speak. -

Funny text. If God was truly backing the work we would see numbers similar to the first century when thousands would convert in a single day.
If God truly existed and "didn't want anyone to be destroyed," then you would see mass conversions of people. Instead we see massive amounts of people leaving the org.

Things JWs Say VS What A Normal Person Would Say...
by JW_Rogue inwhen someone says "merry christmas" or "happy holidays".... a normal person: responds in kind.
a jw: says "thank you" or launches into a speech about christmas' pagan roots.
when a couple is celebrating their wedding anniversary... .

Planning for retirement:
a normal person: "Hope I will have enough to retire comfortably and be able to still have some fun here and there!"
dub: "Retire? Yea right!! The new world will definitely be here by then. Every penny I get now I spend!"

This week's study article about shunning is contradictory.
by Sanchy ini was reading this week's study article on remaining loyal to jah.
found an interesting contradiction on shunning.
they cite two experiences.

That lady "Anne" sounds like a grade A bitch. Seriously? Your own mother, the woman who birthed you and took care of you and sacrificed everything for your care, is treated like an unwanted rat. So disgusting it's unreal.
(This illustration probably didn't happen anyways. But now some dubs might get the mind to do this with their own "out" relatives.)

Waking up - introduction
by Dreamerdude ini am a male, born into the jw cult(ure), baptized as a teen, now mid fifties.

still going through the motions for still-in wife.

Welcome and sorry you had to get involved with this cult. It's good to hear that you taking care of yourself. I hope that soon your wife will also be able to wake up and both of you can come out together.
What worked for my wife may not work for yours. I started planning weekend getaways that made us miss meetings. I used those opportunities to tell her how I felt about the organization and how depressed I was as an Elder. That seemed to work. I slowly shared little things with her and in time she too woke up. She is still in a bit mentally but she wants to get out and move on as well.
Maybe try to plan things on meeting nights and see how that goes. Have lots of fun together and cement your relationship. Build friendships with outsiders and get close with your "worldly" relatives so you have a support system.

Be ready to obey!!
by kairos inhttp://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/w20131115/seven-shepherds-eight-dukes/.
from paragraph 17-. at that time, the life-saving direction that we receive from jehovah’s organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint.
all of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.. i think i know what the instructions will be.it's nothing new.

What scriptural basis do they have for this direction? Was there an example that they "drew from?" Anyone that doesn't see a problem with that statement needs to get their head examined to make sure the old meat sponge is still there.
