im printing this off and spending my next sunday morning doing some door to door work posting this article through all the letter boxes of the street my local kh is on.. it's shocking that none of the r&f know about this.
i have a feeling that the 2 witness rule will be revised in 2017 and made to look like it was jehovah's proper time.

It's shocking that none of the R&F know about this. I have a feeling that the 2 witness rule will be revised in 2017 and made to look like it was Jehovah's proper time. When in fact they dont even know there's been 5 decades of cover up and a major court case forcing them to make a change.
this is an excerpt about shunning from the royal commissions latest (final?
) report: i think it is a must read and shows clearly that shunning also needs to be considered when child abuse is discussed and how cruel it is.. here the report:.
jehovah’s witnesses are counselled against associating, fraternising or conversing with a person who has been disfellowshipped or who has chosen to disassociate from the jehovah’s witness organisation.
I have a sneaky feeling that the child abuse reporting policy will be revised in 2017 and the rank and file will think it was Jehovah's doing... not knowing that there's been a major court case and it's taken 5 decades of abuse and cover up for force them to do something.
i'm at my quasi-thanksgiving dinner with relatives.
i hear a haunting sound from another room.
"is that a children's song?
From where im sitting at home I'll tell you what's "just around the corner"... a liquor store. There's my paradise right there.
In all serious though, would you REALLY want to live in a world full of Jehovahs Witnesses? I think i'd rather die in armageddon.
hi guys.. "brother" jose is quite possibly the most sinister speaker i've ever seen or heard.
and i've seen/head a lot of cults in my time.. he's over the top with his voice tone and gestures.
i see a future governing body member in the making here:.
I just can't imagine Jesus talking or acting anything like that. It's rare that you'd see an excellent speaker who was also approachable and not up his own ass.

This is from the last regional convention guys. The very first talk on the first day.
This was the first RC in which I never attended - thank Vishnu/Allah/Frejya/Jupiter. I think I would've walked out 2 mins in.

Wonder what Ray Franz would make of him?

it seems that many times in life there is a moment or an action that changes your whole world.
it could be just a look that someone gives you.. many times it can be something rather small.
something hardly noticeable by anyone but you.
Birth of my daughter. The 10 seconds of silence when she finally arrived, then the rush of relief when she finally cried which means she's breathing and she's alive. Those 10 seconds of wondering will she live or has she died in childbirth? Never wanting to repeat those 10 seconds again meant i questioned the blood doctrine seriously. Which lead me to what the Jewish law ACTUALLY said. I knew i'd been duped to believe some bumbling GB members current opinion of what the bible said rather than letting people make their own choices.
It was steady decline from then on from the Org to TTATT.
Never looked back.
your challenge, if you choose to accept it, is to go onto jw.org.
take one of their pics from any publication and add your own speech bubbles or caption.. here's mine.

thanksgiving is really just a nice, traditional, family-oriented day set aside on a national level.
no babylon the great.
give me a break with the holier than thou, "we don't celebrate thanksgiving.
I remember those kind of responses, i used to parrot them myself:
MOTHERS DAY - We treat out mothers nice every day
FATHERS DAY - We treat out fathers nice every day
CHRISTMAS - [cue boring JW explanation of it's origin] then we have random surprise days which mean more.
In reality:
MOTHERS DAY - never treated my mother any better than any other religion did any day of the week.
FATHERS DAY - as above
CHRISTMAS - i remember having 2 (count em,) TWO "surprise days" in the 31 years i was a Jdub. Not that im bitter or anything but we used to claim we had these special days all the time.
Basically, anything involving joy and laughter is not allowed in this religion.
