  just got back from florida where i spent the holidays with family.

  about half are jdubs.. this year the prevalent atmosphere of superiority from the jw side of the family was totally toned down.

  one of my cousins, a bethelite in upstate ny bethel along with his wife, found out that the wife was having an affair with a young bethelite "brother".

  Did you ever have any real weirdos ? in your congregation who were Elders ?

  .....some of the things he did and got away with , to me now is unbeleivable , and maybe to you.. in all fairness he was well versed in the bible and very clever how he used it to put a critic to rest at the doors and in one instance when i was witnessing with him , he demoralised a pastor of his church .and i was impressed at that time.. but he had some strange ways , he was always looking for someone to break gods laws so to speak .he did set himself up as the policeman for enforcing gods law on the congregations .

  ( this is my description ) he was known to stand outside bros/sis.

  homes to see if he could find something incriminating against them .

  Why I`m not against the death penalty....one reason...their are more

  by smiddy in

  1. social
  2. current

  you have all read in newspapers , heard it on tv, radio ,of the 23 year old indian woman student who was gang raped recently by no less than 10 men on a bus then severely beaten with an iron bar and then thrown off the bus in singapore and has since died of her injuries .. those perpretrators of that crime are deserving of the death sentence in my book .. if you willfully take a life or ,are a party to it ,you automatically forfeit your own life .that`s my philosophy .. what`s yours.

  2. experiences

  so i went to my employer's christmas party recently.

  for the first time i felt completely at ease with normal people.

  i'm blessed to have an employer who understands my situation and is also a sceptic like me raised in a very devoit rcc imigrant family.

  I have attended quite few down the years and they are and end of year thing rather than a 'Christmas' party. and yes, many there will wish you a happy christmas as that is the local thing to do and also as the companies were closing down until the new year had arrived.

  I have also attended a few jw weddings that were chaotic as everyone bought along their little kids. Where groups of small boys spent the time sliding up and down in the (hired) hall being rowdy. The same boys were into the food before thanks had been said and with no manners either.

  The worst i saw was a mother changing her baby on the bridal table. Only at a jw wedding!

  FLDS preparing for the "end of times"

  by Anony Mous in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  which they believe will be here before 2013. authorities are concerned that jeff warren is planning "something dire" from his prison cell.. flds stores have shut down, believers do not want to talk to reporters.. http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid=23541460.

  where have we seen that before?

  anyone want to speculate on when the wtbts is going to plan something similar?.
