  Sick! "Stoning of Two Transgenders in Dortmund, Germany Prevented By Police In The Last Minute."

  this is what europe is becoming?

  my work colleague in germany sent my this article in an email and it is perhaps one of the most disturbing things i have heard yet.

  i have been hearing about many of these recent homophobic and transphobic hate crimes taking place across europe but this one slipped through the cracks.

  EndofMysteries, you wrote: only in the past few years have I learned about politics and what liberal and conservative, etc, mean. I must say I've come to really dislike far left liberals . . . They are to blame for opening the gates of Europe to let the flow of so called refugees go in unchecked.

  I totally agree with you. A few nonths ago, one politician in my country warned our government for the potential danger of living "testosteron-bombs" coming our way. He was laughed at and branded a "racist & extremist". I think they don't laugh anymore but can only look in the mirror and ask themselves: "What would I do if MY wife or relative was gangraped?". This is not about racism, this is simply about protection of citizens as stated by the law.

  United States baptism stats 1969-2015

  by the comet in

  2. beliefs

  whenever the new yearbooks come out, we all look at the figures and see the publisher increase never really matches up with the baptism figures.

  it never should match up as all newly baptized ones are already publishers, and may have been for many years.

  i, as an example, became an unbaptized publisher at age 11. i didn't get baptized until i was 17. .

  his folks had a fit and told him he had to go back and "do his time".........and do the "right thing"...........he told me he had just left max larson’s office, max had just told him “what a disappointment he was, to his family and to the organization!

  “do you ever think about james olson?

  OMG, your experiences are like an emotional rollercoster!

  I mean, you went from this :

  "These are MY people (because I'm Italian too)........I love all these old 300 lb. women with moustaches!" Just then I felt this liquid running down my head and all over my clothes. You guessed it. I looked up and saw a big fat Italian Lady with a moustache, pouring her wine glass out on my head.

  ...to this :

  Jimmy was dead and judged on that day.

  So my friends......Just who did kill James Olson? Was it the heartless religion? Was it his family? Was it the "Bethel brothers?" Was it Max Larson? I'm the only person who knows who really killed James Olson!

  IT WAS ALL OF US!!!

  Thank for sharing your bethel experiences with us new boy, I'm hooked since day one.

  No more reporting time for field service!!!

  so at last i am in my next step of my fade, this month is the first month i did not turned in any hours.

  i received a text from our group leader an ms & i told him i didn't have any to report, then of course it got bumped up to the elder & i text him back i have no hours to report for december.

  i came to this decision when reading many posters here about the yearbook stats, i do not want & refused to contribute to this organization "boosting" numbers for their glorious purposes, after the rc in australia they do not deserve for me to give them a "production" report of what i do for god, no more.

  I never knew I had it in me , but I was aux. pio. last september during the CO's visit, dropped the A-bomb by writing a letter to the BOE regarding 1914 & ARC then went from 3 to 2 to 1 hour during oct-nov-dec. My first day in fieldservice was january 1996, so I guess at my 20th anniversary, the time finally has come to say goodbye and retire!

  BarelyThere, welcome & good to have you here! I've only been here since last week, but this forum really is like therapy, I dared to express myself, shared some things, and love and understanding was what I found. I'm convinced there is a voice and compassionate ear for every situation/experience imaginable here...

  Watchtower financial yearbook statements 1989-2016

  by the comet in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  since the 2016 yearbook yearbook was released i've been tearing through the numbers, trying to figure a few things out.

  i have several different projects i'm working on, and this is one of them.

  i looked through all the yearbooks from the 1989 one through 2016, the only thing they really state about money is how much they spent on; special pioneers, missionaries, and traveling overseers.

  Returning

  2. experiences

  i was a member of this community a long time ago and have lurked for years.

  well, i am back and still thoroughly conflicted, with my heart/loyalties as divided as ever.

  please welcome me back, hear me out, and make me feel as welcomed as before.. the wtbts has changed so very much in recent years that i feel trapped in a completely different religion altogether.

  Good to be back.

  Well, welcome back!

  I can honestly say that in the congregations I am not alone so we of like minds keep each other company while enduring the misery of the Organization.

  So, it could've been worse, right? That's at least one bright side!

  Also, you can keep us informed about what's going on in your congregation. I visited only 2 meetings since my fading 4 months ago, and can't listen to it anymore, but I still love to read the real life experiences from within this dying cult.

  My Bethel Exoerience part 14 "The Courtship"

  by new boy in

  2. friends

  my strange bethel courtship started with me trying to meet mike stillman's sister, even though he worked in the ink room next to my elevator, we were not good friends, he was just a little to "country" for me........and on the self-righteous side too.

  they say "there is nothing more dangerous in combat then a new guy with a map!

  ".........well, there was nothing more dangerous at bethel then a self-righteous new boy.. .
