Do you think the WTS will ever seriously start DA'ing faders?
by AK - Jeff insome have indicated that this might be coming.
based mostly on the new book - some think maybe the org is positioning itself to remove all possible 'doubters' and 'inside apostates' this way.. i mean - having spent four decades watching the actions of this organization as a witness, i can see something like that happening perhaps.. service meeting announcement;.
having had six months to renew his association actively with jehovah's witnesses, and having not been to a meeting or out in service for that same time span, we must announce that ____________ has left the organization and shown by his actions that he is no longer one of jehovah's witnesses.. the brothers and sisters need to be reiminded that he should be treated 'as a man of the nations' - full shunning is in effect!.

THEY ANNOUNCED THAT I HAD DISASSOCIATED MYSELF (WHICH I HADN'T). WHEN I QUESTIONED THEM ON IT, THEY SAID MY SIN WAS NON MEETING ATTENDANCE! THIS WAS AROUND 15 YEARS AGO!

FATHER'S DAY AND MY BIRTHDAY FALL ON THE SAME DAY THIS YEAR.
I TOLD MY WIFE NOT TO GET ME ANYTHING AS I DON'T WANT HER 'WORSHIPING THE CREATION RATHER THAN THE CREATOR'!
AFTER I PICKED MYSELF UP FROM OFF THE FLOOR (SHE HIT ME), WE DECIDED MAYBE A NICE LUNCH AND SOME NEW JUMPER CABLES WOULD BE OKAY.

AND NOW, THE REST OF THE STORY!
by Outaservice inin the 16th, and 17th centuries, everything had to be transported by ship and it was also before commercial fertilizer's invention, so large shipments of manure were common.. it was shipped dry, because in dry form it weighed a lot less than when wet, but once water (at sea) hit it, it not only became heavier, but the process of fermentation began again, of which a by-product is menthane gas.. as the stuff was stored below decks in bundles you can see what could (and did) happen.
menthane began to build up below decks and the first time someone came below with a lantern, 'ka.........boooom!'.
several ships were destroyed in this manner before it was determined just what was happening.. after that, the bundles of manure were always stamped with the term 'ship high in transit' on them which meant for the sailors to stow it high enough off the lower decks so that any water that came into the 'hold' would not touch this volatile cargo and start the production of methane.. thus evolved the term "s.h.i.t.

IN THE 16TH, AND 17TH CENTURIES, EVERYTHING HAD TO BE TRANSPORTED BY SHIP AND IT WAS ALSO BEFORE COMMERCIAL FERTILIZER'S INVENTION, SO LARGE SHIPMENTS OF MANURE WERE COMMON.
IT WAS SHIPPED DRY, BECAUSE IN DRY FORM IT WEIGHED A LOT LESS THAN WHEN WET, BUT ONCE WATER (AT SEA) HIT IT, IT NOT ONLY BECAME HEAVIER, BUT THE PROCESS OF FERMENTATION BEGAN AGAIN, OF WHICH A BY-PRODUCT IS MENTHANE GAS.
AS THE STUFF WAS STORED BELOW DECKS IN BUNDLES YOU CAN SEE WHAT COULD (AND DID) HAPPEN. MENTHANE BEGAN TO BUILD UP BELOW DECKS AND THE FIRST TIME SOMEONE CAME BELOW WITH A LANTERN, 'KA.........BOOOOM!'
SEVERAL SHIPS WERE DESTROYED IN THIS MANNER BEFORE IT WAS DETERMINED JUST WHAT WAS HAPPENING.
AFTER THAT, THE BUNDLES OF MANURE WERE ALWAYS STAMPED WITH THE TERM 'SHIP HIGH IN TRANSIT' ON THEM WHICH MEANT FOR THE SAILORS TO STOW IT HIGH ENOUGH OFF THE LOWER DECKS SO THAT ANY WATER THAT CAME INTO THE 'HOLD' WOULD NOT TOUCH THIS VOLATILE CARGO AND START THE PRODUCTION OF METHANE.
THUS EVOLVED THE TERM "S.H.I.T." (SHIP HIGH IN TRANSPORT) WHICH HAS COME DOWN THROUGH THE CENTURIES AND IS IN USE TO THIS VERY DAY.
