The one oclock meeting
by Steel ini go to a hall (very rarely) with a single cong of about 60 people in a small city of maybe 10000. our board of elders is a bunch of childless weirdos or at least the ones that make an effort.. they recently changed the sunday meeting time from 10/12 to 1/ 3. a number of us are pissed off.
its makes to hard to drive to the city or go to a football game.. i just know the gestopo elders behind the change.
if your life isnt as miserable or pointless as theirs, they arent doing their job.

Yea screw those meetings and serve us. Weekends are better spent making breakfast, doing some shopping, the occasional stroll in a given direction to see something fun and pretty much anything non JW related. It's great not having to dread the weekends anymore.

Agreed!! Sad but true. MIL still thinks we are under Satanic control. It's pretty unbelievable at this point. My wife shared with her all the info on the ARC and MIL immediately became defensive, thinking it was "apostate driven lies."
She showed her info on their current belief regarding Revelation chapter 20 and then told her to actually read the entire chapter. It's obvious the time frame for the second resurrection is after the millennial reign and the books or scrolls are not "new direction" but personal judgements based on the persons life. Ugh!!😑

So my wife had an interesting conversation with her mother yesterday. It seems that even with everything we said to them, not a thing sunk in. Now that is to be expected. What is funny is that they firmly feel as if this is just a phase we are going through and we will return!! We made it clear that we are never going back and this is what she heard?!!
She wants us to go to their Memorial this upcoming year. I explained to them that it is an inversion ritual, a Satanic Black Mass. They also want us to accept a shepherding call. Why? So I can hammer them for hours and they not absorb a single thing? Waste of time and energy!!
Either way she made it clear that if we talk bad about the organization, or if we envoke evil apostates they will shun us. How sad. I didn't realize they were so far gone! How sad that they care so little for their own flesh and blood daughter.
Anyways sorry for the rant. We did do a Life Breath session yesterday! I recommend it to all who have an open mind.

Interperatation of Revelation 13 due for an update?
by pale.emperor inregarding the watchtower interpretation of revelation 13 https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/g201105/seventh-world-power-bible-history/ - identifying the usa and britain as part of the legs of iron from daniels vision... i think they're gonna have to update this one in the next decade.. trump seems to be the last person who'd work closely with a female prime minister for one, secondly, us brits aint so powerful as we once was.
trump appears to be pretty ok with dealing with russia and for all we know could become an ally with them.. your thoughts?.
now that i read the watchtower interpretation of revelation without my jw spectacles on, it's laughable that they come to these conclusions..

Wasn't it the November tv show that they said prophecy is only decernable after the event has happened?

I'd love to see Revelation chapter 20 reviewed, but then again they can't cause it would destroy too many of their teachings regarding the second resurrection, the books or scrolls that are opened and the timing of such.

Entertainment: What's everybody reading or into right now?
by schnell ini picked up bernard cornwell's the pagan lord at the library.
historical fiction set in england after the death of alfred the great.
i'm loving it, especially the between-the-lines wit and sense of timing in cornwell's writing, and the complete badassery of the protagonist.

@schnell Diablo 3 is insane fun if you like a Warcrafty type game. It's cheap with real replay value.

iZombie and The Walking Dead on Netflix. Both good shows. Just downloaded the ES5: Skyrim reboot and that has been good so far. Looking forward to the Diablo 3 patch with the resurrected New Tristam storyline from D1 and the necromancer class.

Taking the Step
by beardfreedom infirst time posting after years of reading, the things i have learned here have gradually helped to open my eyes to the reality of this religion.
though i have been mentally out for some time, lately i have stopped going to meetings and service.
the elders are calling and i have been ignoring them, i am trying to get up the courage to finally break free and never go back.

Rip the bandaid and go. It's the best decision the wife and I made. Yea we lost family and yes we lost (conditional) friends but you will make more. Further you will see that the people of "the world" will take you in and show you a love that the J-dumbs never could or did.
As the Nike ad goes, "Just Do It!!"
