  Does Anyone Know The "Real" Attitude That JWs Have Towards "Inactive Ones"?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  does the rank and file or the elders view us as disassociated or disfellowshipped or simply "weak" or possibly a "prodigal son" type?.

  @ pale.emperor...

  Seriously? He actually said that?

  Yep. And the worst part is, he and another elder went on a shepherding call to "encourage him" only the very next day.

  I'll quote my ex-father in law who is an elder:

  Me: Is that a new study?

  Him: No, he's a witness but hasn't been the meetings in a few months. He's useless.

  Local Elder Mentions this Site from the Platform

  by James Jack in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  a local elder had the part this week on the "good news" brochure.

  he said: "if the householder has any questions, direct them to jw.org, don't say, just look up jehovah's witnesses on the internet(an older sister said this at the door), if you do they will be directed to a site visited by apostates and weak witnesses!

  " "this mistake, would cause the householder to never accept bible truth".. i thought to myself, wow, i'm sure some listening to this part, will get curious now(many in the hall are just being exposed to the internet, and practicing with their new tablets) and do, just what they were told not to do..

  "As a Christian, it is not my place to hate anyone, but that doesn't mean I have to accept other people's lifestyle choices.

  Choices? Like he chose to have white skin? Like he chose to me male? Like he chose to have brown eyes?
  

  "I am not being orchestrated at all by the Jehovah's Witnesses. I am one of them by choice, by free will and I hold that belief."

  No, of course you're not. Invite him and his new husband to stay over for the weekend and see what happens.
  

  She said her son "would like our relationship to be like it was".

  "We had a very close relationship. I am sure he is missing it. But it can't be that way with his current choices," she said.

  So it is her that's doing the shunning. His current choices to feel attracted to males. Just like he chose to have her as a mother.

  Horrible excuse for a mother. This cult truly is toxic.

  Is Stephen Lett an alien imitation?

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. humour

  i've been watching quite a bit of gb member stephen lett on youtube recently (no, i'm not thinking of going back to the jws).. i just find him compulsive viewing, like when people slow down to see a car crash.

  i find his facial expressions and intonation spell-binding.. it reminds me a bit of john carpenter's the thing, a film where an alien life-form infects a host and imitates it, spreading throughout camps of remote workers in the antarctic.

  if i were a bethelite living in close proximity to lett, i'd be thinking about giving him the blood test to see if he was normal, lol.. why does lett speak in public the way he does?

  here's a great jw brain stumper about noah

  by nowwhat? in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  so noah was a preacher of righteousness.

  than how did he warn other pockets of civilizations that were hundreds or thousands of miles away?

  and if they were destroyed anyway i thought jehovah only acts after he gives clear warning.. and if there were no other civilzations why the need to destroy the entire earth of every living creature?

  And another thing:

  Genesis 6:2 - the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose. (NIV)

  This means that the angels has male sexual urges and materialized male bodies. How come none of them had lust towards the males? Couldn't they have also taken female bodies to take husbands?

  My Old Kingdom Hall being merged with TWO other congregations!

  by pale.emperor in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  this can only be a good sign.. my old congregation in liverpool has had a lot of money in it's bank account for years.

  for a long, long time (almost 8 years) they've been looking for land to build a new hall.

  the one they're in now is literally falling to bits.

  pale.emperor: Could you say which KH that was? I mean, could you point to the old hall and the new (3 year old) hall on google map?

  KH's A, G and H will be merging. As my sources tell me, KH "H" will be the one they're all moving to. I can imagine people in KH G just ignoring the direction and just moving to KH J.

  I also heard of a couple who left their house to their local congregation for the pioneers to use. Two or three couples could live there virtually rent free and it would help them financially. When the sister died last year the society would not hear of this arrangement and told the congregation to sell the property and forward the funds to them. This has now happened.

  Thats bad. They left it for the pioneers to use. They'd turn in their graves if they knew the society were selling up to compensate a victim of child molestation somewhere.

  local hall has now got a buyer--i understand. ( asking price £500.000.

  It begs the question, what does one do with a KH they just bought? It'd make a crap house. Offices maybe?
