This setting may not be the best time for parents to mention their faith in the resurrection
Why not? Guess it just goes to show that even they don't believe their own bullshit.
we interrupt your forum posting for this 'just in' item...... it appears an elder has not locked his doctor's bag and a member of the conscious class has brazeningly swiped & scanned a copy of the s-55e.
(((thank you anonymous cc jw!.
for the purpose of our bethel audience i want to assure you no actual elder was willingly involved in the obtaining of this scan.. link: http://www.sendspace.com/file/mnf7a0.

brazeningly ??
Anyway..... Nice score!!!!!
last night on amw, they profiled the jw elder child molester.
they detailed how he'd planned to be on the run by stashing money all around his house, how he quickly got a divorce when he was being investigated, sold off his assets in a race car business and disappeared.
one lady interviewed incognito, told of how he was a trusted member in the congregation with privileges.. did anyone else see this segment?

i remember ones when i was quite tired and low one elder said to me " it says in the bible that the one who endures to the end will survive, so really the only thing you/we have to do is to endure".. wow, gee, really!!
hey well that's a relief and encouraging....thanks.... i think that all that enduring was what made me tired and depressed in the first place..... what do you have to relate?.

Told by a group of elders, with my wife bobble-heading to their advice, that going to school was a waste of time, that I'd never make more than minimum wage in what I was studying, and that the time would be more productive spent out is service....
You can imagine all their surprises when after I finished school two years later, I quadrupled my income, got a job with great bennies, moved into a 3800 sq. ft. two story house, got a pilot's certificate, finished a second 2 yr AA degree, will be finishing a BA degree next year,......
....and now the wife enjoys the privilege of not having had to have worked for the last 15 years.

Think About it
Yeah.....
I'm trying to give this guy the benefit of the doubt but........
That personna of arrogant WT narcissism has penetrated his psyche a bit deeper than I think he even realize.

Frankly, it sounds to me like this guy has jumped out of the frying pan of unquestioning belief in what a dozen 20th century WT goons have wrote and into the fire of unquestioned belief in passed down "word of mouth" stories from a bunch of superstitious nomadic sheepherders.
Also, I can't put my finger on it, but, what's up with him basically declaring the board heathens that he want no part of and no dialog with, but he feels the need to drop in and invite those same heathens to read the blatherings in his blog?
i have just been informed that the watchtower society lovingly stated that all black people would become, over time, white.

"'It is generally believed that the curse which Noah pronounced upon Canaan was the origin of the black race. Certain it is that when Noah said, "Cursed be Canaan, a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren," he pictured the future of the Colored race. They have been and are a race of servants, but now in the dawn of the twentieth century, we are all coming to see this matter of service in its true light and to find that the only real joy in life is in serving others; not bossing them. There is no servant in the world as good as a good Colored servant, and the joy that he gets from rendering faithful service is one of the purest joys there is in the world."'(The Golden Age, July 24, 1929, p. 702)

""Prof. H. A. Edwards, Supt. of Schools in Slater, Mo., has written for the public press an elaborate description of how Julius Jackson, of New Frankfurt, Mo., a negro boy of nine years, began to grow white in September, 1901, and is now fully nine-tenths white. He assures us that this is no whitish skin disease; but that the new white skin is as healthy as that of any white boy, and that the changed boy has never been sick and never has taken medicines"'.(Feb. 15, 1904 Watch Tower p.52-53)
