Marrying outside the lord

by label licker in

i should know the answer to this but my memory is failing big time.

our friend just called who is still in the cult.

he's been away from it for about five months now.

pale.emperor

...the coby came up to him and said welcome back since it's been four and a half months you haven't been to a meeting. The coby then said there was going to be a judicial meeting set up for him.

Oh, what a welcome!

Dubstepped it right though, although it'd depend on how much of an asshole the elders were, they could get him on Brazen Conduct.

BUT REMEMBER!! If he's turns up to the JC, they take that as "evidence that he recognizes the authority of that body". I'd tell him not to turn up, or better still tell them he doesn't recognize the authority of the body and then not turn up.

New "Annointed" Brother In My Old Hall...

by pale.emperor in

i've only just stopped laughing.. in my old hall there's a brother who's now claiming to be of the anointed.. he's 28.. i do wonder if he's doing this for attention, if he's awake and messing with them, or if he really is that deluded.

when i was in he was an ms. which surprised even me because only a year earlier than that he was "a bit of a lad", is rubbish at talks and relies on his elder uncle to get him out of trouble all the time.. i guess this now means he's get his pick of jw sisters.

he's been after the same one as the rest of his peers since 2014..

Hey PE just a slighly off topic thought but would it be posible to wake someone up from their cult indoctrination via hypnosis?

Yes. The approach would be to "help" them realize that it's much nicer not being in a cult. Except, if they 100% believe and have zero doubt then it wouldn't work. But you could embed a post-hypnotic suggestion to shout "what a load of old sh*t!" every time someone says amen. That'd be fun.

lf you could be god would you and why and what would you change?

by atomant in

not sure if this question has been asked before but thought it would be interesting to read peoples response..

pale.emperor

Very simple. Allow me to pick up after that incompetent Jehovah had created Adam and Eve. I wont create a tree to test them. And i'd communicate directly with the human race. People are given a choice to "allow me to look after them" like a father. NOT WORSHIP. I dont want to be worshipped, i just want to look after my humans.

Those who let me look after them are given whatever they want, they're intelligent, they live very long lives and eventually fall asleep in complete bliss and pass away. When they pass away they're with me up here and can come back down for visits every now and then.

Those who dont want me to look after them are free to go and on the other side of the world. The people living there get sick, the grow old, they experience hardship. They can come back whenever they want and let me look after them and nothing bad will happen.

Anyone who attempts to harm a child is zapped immediately.

Disfellowshipped in Absentia

by HereIgo in

i have heard of this happening before, but how often?

its pretty rare it seems.

i have often wondered if the elders would go this route with me since they knew i was actively sinning, but as far as i know, no jc was ever formed.

pale.emperor

This is a classic case of control. You cant leave even silently. Because they'll just hold a JC with you not even there, DF you and announce you from the platform.

From what i remember from the elders guidebook, an inactive one turning up to a JC is taken as "respecting the authority of that body"... of course the poor inactive person isnt told that. He could be turning up to be polite.

After 6 years i'd say your safe. I know people who've faded less than a year and are left alone.

Chapter 31 New Boy 50 years a Watchtower slave

by new boy in

jw
friends

chapter 31. murder suicide and death at the big house.

the people at bethel were killing us spiritually and sometimes they killed us physically too.. many of the old timers were in the infirmary laying there just waiting to die of natural causes.

some had served there for over fifty years.

pale.emperor

It sounds like a prison camp. So glad i never did go to Bethel. I did go to the "bethel" meeting at one of the conventions with my then girlfriend.

Why is England such a frequent target for terrorists?

I think Paris is worse.

Next week's "Bible" Study at the K.H.

by The Fall Guy in

one or two notable points from chapter 18 of "god's kingdom rules.".

“it will never beg nor petition men for support”.

7 brother russell and his associates refused to imitate the money-raising schemes so common in the churches of christendom.

pale.emperor

Does anyone else remember about 2014/2015 being handed a slip of paper in the hall asking how much you can send the org per month? I do. Even then as a believer i thought "this isn't right".

North Korea Has Gone and Done it Again

by cofty in

nk has fired another icbm over japan.. the missile flew 2,300 miles at an altitude of 480 miles.

a korean spokesman has said about japan, “the four islands of the archipelago should be sunken into the sea by the nuclear bomb of juche.

japan is no longer needed to exist near us”.

pale.emperor

Really hope this mess gets sorted within my lifetime. I'd love to see Kim Jong Un get owned.

What we need is a high ranking member with no family (nothing to lose) who can walk up and blow him away or garrott the fat bastard in his office.
