Independentthinker: I feel you. Oh! That doesn't sound good. Hell, you know what I mean. How can they talk about people who have a different orientation than we do, obviously no fellow feeling. They forget one VERY IMPORTANT FACT. There are over 24,000 active Pediophiles associated with the WB&TS in good standing, some even serving as elders and also allowed to go out in field service. The very person they may trust with their lives could very well be eyeing their little sons.
After something unthinkable happens to them maybe then it will hit home.

Cantleave: Angus, this video is well put together and I wish I could sign the petition. But because of being a U.S. Citizen not able to. There was a similar petition for removal of tax free status the destructive cults in the U.S. and I signed it but, I don't think enough signatures were received to implement this to the White House. The national debt could be wiped out in one fell swoop if they were taxed.
I was thinking that most are afraid to sign because they may feel that by their signing they would bring about the Great Tribulation. This of course is my opinion. Hopefully, everyone will realize that is inevitable and we need to take a stand for what is decent and right due to the GREAT HARM to innocent people.

i'll admit it.
it kinda gets my goat when folks disregard spelling and grammar.
i really get miffed at misuse of there/their/they're and your/you're, then/than, etc.. i very rarely ever go so far as to correct anyone on it, but it would seem that maybe karma caught up with me today on another thread when i typed that i had "said my peace".
Elderelite: Is you bein funny? LOL

i'll tell you a story about some thing that happened to me last week.....everyone loves a good story right?...this one is true.
so i got a job selling time shares.
this old guy (about 90 years) walks up wearing a wwii 101 airborne ball cap.
It probably has something to do with IRAN.
Kojack
i just had to say that.
it's just so dumb.. hey, you witness lurkers, don't you agree??
?.
Minimus: Your not getting a response from them because they think your talking to someone else. The kool-aid mixture keeps them blind to the fact that they can't think for themselves. They are actually waiting to see if their GOD the G.B. will respond to you. LOL !

my mom's kh was built last year with a loan from wts.
she was talking about a letter to all congregations with loans from wts.
the letter was asking the publishers how much they can pay towards a refinance.

the latest august 15th watchtower study edition features an interesting review of the society's annual meeting.. one comment struck me as evidence that the governing body isn't quite as "discreet" as it claims.. here is what the article said:.
"there are plans to develop a 248-acre (100 ha) property at warwick.
'although we are not yet certain of jehovahs will regarding warwick,' said brother pierce, 'we are proceeding to develop the site with the intention of relocating the world headquarters of jehovahs witnesses there.
It's amazing that the G.B. can think at all. It's obvious that they are not governed by Holy Spirit, but only by human reasoning which is used by men who have no clue. Puff the dragon said it to the tee, what we the G.B. say is gospel and if you don't concede you will not have a family to talk too. You will be labeled APOSTATE when in fact they themselves have Stayed from the way.

here is a quote from the 8/15/12 watchtower study simplified edition that just was posted on jw.org.. on page 13 paragraph 12 it says "those who ignore the warnings from the faithful and discreet slave will harm themselves and those they love.".
also, another doozy is earlier on paragraph it likens those who have not read social networking articles from the faithful slave before using, "is like taking a powerful medicine without first reading the warning on the bottle.".
im not even done reading this whole magazine yet, but i thought i'd share these insane comments.
If you give the G.B. enough rope they will eventually hang themselves.

one thing i noticed in the august 15, 2012 watchtower, page 26, is how the writer has clearly left the usual form of narration.
typically it goes like "we must avoid satan's snares!
" but when it gets to the subject of materialism, notice the change in paragraph 4, page 26:.
Judas priest, the G.B. has balls to be talking smack like that. Man, at least those of us who are out can see the deception.
