After reading all fisher"man"s insulting, name-calling, ad nauseam personal attacks, and KNOWING I am next in line for the same childish treatment I felt the need to tell fisher"man" something:
Look at my avatar! That is for you!

I noticed how EVERY jdub that commented on this picture said the guy was watching porn. Why are they all so mentally centered on sex? Maybe he was gambling online? Maybe he was setting up his next "business" deal screwing some poor woman out of her life's savings? -

"What moved your child to return to Jehovah?"
"The missed association with the family."
So much for their "child" giving a flying f--- about the troof or God!

Thanks all!
There is nothing more fun at this point in time than to "innocently" use their own printed words in conversation and when they claim I am wrong, than show them, and ask if they are doubting "the slave".

So OFS was at the WT this morning, and on par. 14 the question was, "What trust can a faithful Christian whose relative is disfellowshipped have?"
After awhile when no one else raised their hands OFS did, and was called on.
OFS commented, "One of JW can have the trust that God will lovingly give them the ability to uphold the disfellowshipping arrangement by totally SHUNNING family members."
No heads bobbing this time. Long pause by the conductor.
Afterwards OFS was called aside and informed that, "We do not shun."
OFS pulled out the handy-dandy tablet and pulled up jw dot org, scrolled to the FAQ and said, "Well according to the governing body we do!" Then OFS pointed out the answer under the question "Do Jehovah's Witnesses Shun Former Members of Their Religion?" This is the direct quote. "If, however, a baptized Witness makes a practice of breaking the Bible’s moral code and does not repent, he or she will be shunned or disfellowshipped."
When the elder said that was probably just the way the writer phrased the answer OFS asked, "So the governing body are not aware of contradicting information being provided by the one true source of Bible information, jw dot org?"
Conversation came to an abrupt end. Thank goodness!

In my area of the country back in the day when I still engaged in field serve us we would go to some pretty big ranches.
Got the hell chewed out of myself by a self-righteous eldurr for wearing black Wranglers. Sorry SOB refused to ever be in the same vehicle with me after that. One of the many little things that caused me to open my eyes and start seeing TTATT.

I was encouraged to have mine chopped off as it was and still is very long.........
That's something else that pretty well pisses me off about the org. The general feeling promoted that long hait on a woman is somehow ugly and wrong. It seems the reason they always give because they have to take time to take care of it and style it that otherwise should be used in field serve us. Selfish illegitimate sons.

I've wondered that myself.
Why do "sisters" always seem to choose to look like derelict, penniless, bag ladies? Any sister that looks pleasing in a modest well arranged dress (think high paid executive in a business suit dress) will quickly be scolded, given the evil eye, and otherwise made to feel like she wears a big red letter A on her forehead simply for dressing smartly, and being attractive.
What a sad commentary on the insecurities of the males and females in the oh so "loving" org.

I'm afraid I will have to throw out the BS flag on these "changes". It ain't gonna happen, unless of course the g.b. want a full blown rebellion on their hands.
As for me, I have worn the same type of clothing since the fifties, and I see no reason to change now.

Small details...
by Garrett ina witness friend wanted to meet up recently and talk.
since this person was a close friend and who i thought had a level head, i'd go ahead and speak with him.
our conversation actually helped me figure a few things out not only for myself but also about the witnesses.. so we're talking and i'm telling him my experience and the doctrines that i disagreed with as well as the scandals that made me disgusted with the organization.

You hit the nail right on the head.
That reminds me that when I was just a wee pup my father gave me a hatchet that had been in the family since the late 1700's
It was the hatchet that none other than George Washington himself had used to chop down the famous cherry tree! My great-grandfather though broke the handle in the early 1800' and whittled a new one to replace it. And after many years of being sharpened the head finally wore out, and my grandfather threw away the old one and bought a new one to replace it. Then by the time my father got it the handle needed replaced again. Now I have it and have put a carbide bladed head on it. But by golly it is the same hatchet George Washington used!
Anyone interested in buying this "genuine" piece of American history?
