Yes..I think paragraph 16 is remarkable. Why did they write that paragraph if not a lot of people in the congregations are bitter and have regrets? The big A cannot be just some months away decade after decade.

FOUR FREEMASONS receive honorable mention in today's WT Study...
by Calebs Airplane inthat's right... 4 freemasons are quoted with honorable mention in today's wt rag study... anyways, these are:.
paragraph 1: john greenleaf whittier (1807-1892) - freemason and quaker poet who wrote "masonic voice review".
there is even a freemason affiliated lodge in massachusetts named after him... the john greenleaf whittier order of demolay which is part of the "freemasons of the eastern star"... paragraph 4: albert barnes (1798-1870) - freemason and presbyterian who was directly involved in the gnostic liberation front which, among other false teachings, attempted to dissuade their members into believing that lucifer is not satan.

Hortensia, yes, that classic sign-language vidoe is the best the society has produced so far! Better than the pirates..the "Watchtower wankers" are just epic.

My life of Debauchery since leaving WTBT$-They were right!!!
by Gojira_101 insince april 1st will be officially 6 months and i will be considered inactive, i thought this would be a good time for me to review my life since leaving....and i guess wtbt$ is right in that my life would return to a debauched state if i left them...so here is my review and i'm being totally serious here.. .
sex: yes i have sex with my husband.....i guess we have returned to the world because we take advantage of our marital dues.. related to sex: no longer just missionary.
drugs: yes i have been taking drugs......my allergies have been so bad the last few days i just couldn't handle it anymore and i gave in to the temptation to take over the counter allergies medicine.. rock and roll: yes......i am no longer listening to the kingdom melodies (i never really did anyways), and have gone to listening to the devils music.

Not exacley...but as far as I remember a vercict in the european court was that the Watchtower society was to be regarded as a religion, and not just a publishing company, and thereby not to obliged to be taxed as a publishing company.

How do you think the Memorial should be celebrated? How are you going to spend it?
by MsGrowingGirl20 infor the first time, i realize that many people have different views about this.. some people believe that all should partake, others don't believe that there should be a memorial.. some are going to the hall, others are having their own celebrations still others are just going to be doing normal activities.. how do you think the memorial should be celebrated?
how are you going to spend it?.

Well...nor celebrated at all. Anyhow..I will be at a rehearsal with a jazz-band. Maybe I'll have some wine and crackers after that. We have talked about having some wine at the computer on this site! If you like being a bit drunk with wine you can join us.! But skip that religious bullshit. You are a free young woman now.
