I just heard this story from one of my relatives. I'm leaving a lot of things out.
A jw couple had three kids and raised them in the religion. The oldest one got disfellowshipped at 18 years of age because he committed fornication with a JW girl. The Jw girl then proceeded to run off with an older jw boy which in turn, broke the heart of the 18 year old jw boy.
So the 18 year old son of the jw couple now went into a deep depression because he was in love with the jw girl who ran off with an older jw boy---------and he was disfellowshipped on top of that.
Imagine a young 18 year old kid with no life experience going through his first heartbreak and getting disfellowshipped for it.
Now imagine a knock on the door. The elders appear for a shepherding call. A call to remind the parents, that their 18 year old son who was now disfellowshipped and a legal adult, was now a spiritual danger to the rest of the family, that is the two other children.
So the parents told their son that it would be better if he moved out because he was a danger to the family and he would be welcomed back when he returned to Jehovah.
An 18 year old kid raised in a jw home, with no experience on making a living and no direction on what he needs to do for shelter, food, and just plain survival.
The kid was having a difficult time finding a place to stay and food to eat on a daily basis. So an opportunity came up out of State and he moved.
In time he was able to get a nice place to live and was able to eat regularly. He also met a girl who was not a Jehovah witness, fell in love and got married.
Throughout this time he tried to touch bases with his parents, He was finally happy and He wanted to introduce his wife to his parents. He had gone through this ordeal with no help from jw family and friends because he was SHUNNED but he was willing to let that pass. All he wanted at this point was to talk to his PARENTS.
But his parents told him that there was to be no contact since he had not returned to Jehovah. And they reminded him of how much he made Jehovah Sad because he married a worldly woman. They told him those marriages NEVER LAST.
Until you return to Jehovah, PLEASE DON’T CONTACT US!
His wife did not understand. Why were they also treating her this way. She started learning about the Jehovah’s Witnesses from her husband.
The years went by and he bought a house. Then they had a child. At this point, someone told the parents that their son had a baby boy.
The parents mailed him a BIBLE STORIES BOOK.
The parents got no reply so they decided to visit their son after some YEARS. They show up at the son’s home without giving him a heads up.
They wanted to see their grandchild. The son went ahead and invited them in. They fell in love with the grandchild.
The last day of the visit they told their son that NOW IS THE TIME TO COME BACK TO JEHOVAH, because their baby’s life was now at stake. But they still reaffirm to their son that there should be NO CONTACT IN ANY FORM BY HIM BECAUSE HE WAS STILL DISFELLOWSHIPPED.
A couple of years pass and the only thing the grand-parents sent to their grandson was WATCHTOWER LITERATURE.
After a while the disfellowshipped son and his wife had another Child, and then another. The parents started sending more literature and more WARNINGS to their son that TIME IS GETTING SHORT, RETURN TO JEHOVAH.
Finally the son sent a letter to his parents, telling them to stop sending Watchtower literature. He tells them that he has thrown every single piece of literature that they’ve sent to his children. He explains to them that he and his wife have taught their children how HATEFUL and HARMFUL the Watchtower religion is. He tells them how the Religion has cause Ordinary Parents to become so hateful that they have shunned their child for years, never being there to help when help was needed by their son their own flesh and blood.
50 years and a few months go by since the 18 year jw kid was disfellowshipped and shunned by his parents. At 68 years of age, this boy who was now an elderly man, was happily married to the same women he met at 18 and later married her, the same man who raised 3 beautiful kids who turned out to be the kindest, most level head, successful adults.
That 18 year old disfellowshipped kid whose jw parents shunned for decades, unfortunately died in an accident.
His parents now in their early 90s were still alive and still waiting for THE END JUST AROUND THE CORNER. Their other two kids had already passed, one died in an accident still in her teens while disfellowshipped, the other died of cancer in her 30s while disfellowshipped also.
Now their last son------their firstborn-----was GONE!
And he turned out to be an exceptional human being. No thanks to his parents who disowned him for a simple mistake of falling in love at the age of 18.
He became very wealthy. But that's not the real Success of this man.
Parents found out that he helped the homeless, funded animal shelters, contributed a lot of money to Children’s Shriners Hospital.
And all his kids now follow his example.
And here is the kicker.
His parents found out their son had died---------TWO YEARS AGO!
Because they had told him that there should be no contact, UNTIL HE RETURNS TO JEHOVAH – Organization!

So far within a year I have lost 64 JW friends..........All of the ones that have died told me that they will just be dead for a few minutes and will see me again in the paradise earth. They all told me to prepare a nice home for them.
Man--that is the saddest thing I've read today.
There is still a lot of these true believers, but they are now in their 80s-90s. I imagine in the next 10-20 years, it won't be 64 jws passing, -----but it will be millions of the core foundation "Tollie like believers" --- that will be passing away and firmly believing that in a few minutes they will come back from the grave, and start a new life, in a new earth, according to his promise, in which righteousness will dwell.
I'm not sure if it's a good thing, or a cruel thing, - to die believing you will be back in a few minutes to a paradise, righteous,earth.
Maybe this is the best thing of being a Jehovah Witness, that in those last minutes of your life, you are thoroughly CONVINCED, that in just a few moments---minutes from an eternal view of time, - in the twinkling of an eye, --- during the last trumpet-----you'll be back in the company of all those you love. -

My wife and I both lost our fathers over the blood issue. Hers was only 48 and mine was only studying with the JW's at the time and their untimely deaths occurred shortly before the"blood fractions" change occurred. This change surely would have saved my Father and possibly would have made it possible for my wife's father to receive the Chemo treatment he needed had his blood not been to weak to make it possible.
Wow that's terrible. I'm sorry for your loss.

The "Regular Pioneer" title has now become a total joke
by pistolpete inwe just had our co visit a few weeks ago.
apparently, he was encouraging all who could to regular pioneer, to at least try it out for a year.
because of this, we had a few people in our hall become one.. so this weekend we were on zoom service, and the sister that was just appointed was talking about it.

Since I suspect the whole door-to-door record-keeping thing was actually to maintain a “charity”-related paper trail (in case of auditing), and the Org’s tax-exemption is likely approaching it’s end, there probably isn’t much point, anymore.
There's actually not much point in opening the Kingdom halls ever again, or resuming the door to door work, or EVEN CONTINUING THE ENTIRE RELIGION.

If they are testing the water with Bethelites,
Bethelites are the canaries testing the mines for poisonous gas.

Superman and Captain America
by punkofnice ini see that marvel are introducing a gay captain america as dc announce the son of superman is bi-sexual.. whereas i don't give a hoot about a person's use of their genitalia as long as it is consensual and not with kids, i'm finding all this 'inclusivity' becoming a bit boring.. are dc and marvel just virtue signalling in the hopes of selling comics and not being set on fire by the antifa frauds?

because it's not what the audience want and the market is overestimated because all the gay / trans people have over-representation in the media.
I'm REALLY GLAD you brought that out!
To be honest, I wasn't aware. I had the impression that the whole world was turning trans.
There's hope!

Differences, on average, between men and women
by LoveUniHateExams inquite bizarrely, there are people trying their level best to blur the lines between man and woman, male and female.. so, i thought it a fairly good idea to list the differences, on average, between men and women.. ok, starting with the most obvious .... women have a vulva, a vagina, and internal gonads (ovaries); men have a penis and external gonads (testes).. women get pregnant, give birth and breastfeed their babies; men do none of those things.. men are taller than women.. men have greater upper-body strength than women.
men have greater bone density and percentage of muscle mass than women.. women live longer than men (this is partly due to life choices and behaviour and partly due to genetics).. men have higher testosterone levels than women.. men heal more quickly from physical injury than women.. the sexual dynamics between men and women tend to be different, too.
re sexual selection, women typically have their choice of the most suitable men.

So we all know California is one shit hole idiot state. Now gov. asshat has banned gas lawn mowers and leaf blowers
I blame the citizens who continue to vote for such idiots.
On a lighter note, did you know that many military forecasters have said that if their was a nuclear war, the first States that the enemy would nuke would be California, New York and Washington!
