In 1986 I remember that there was a large group of clergy that met and prayed for peace and actually declared something like this is the year of peach and security and boy did the witnesses start the gossip then that the big A was so close...

Today’s meeting and CO visit
by Addison0998 inthe meeting today was quite disturbing as usual and had to endure 2 talks by yet another egotistical, pompous co who gives talks like a hardcore southern baptist, but people adore no matter what crazy shit spews from their mouth.
today, he talked about jesus illustration about how if your eye or hand stumbles you, remove it.
he went into gory detail about how somebodies eye ball is pulled out from their head, and what it takes to cut someone’s hand off...perhaps even with a pocketknife...in front of many small children in the audience.

So many members have accumulated so many magazines that they were supposed to distribute, but instead stored them in basements and attics, gets me to thinking that the Watchtower and Awake have another award...as the most wasteful use of ink and paper products in mankind,s history. They have singlehandedly wasted enough paper to possibly reach the moon and back 8 times...

Casually point out to them the front introduction of the old Awake magazines has the paragraph about "the generation that will not pass away" in it and then see if they still want them.

Any chance I get, I replay this news report in Dallas about elder sex abuse right here in Texas. Usually get a dumbfounded look and they say Jehovah will clean out his org. and the subject gets changed akwardly

We keep in expectation of Jehovah, the God of all justice, to correct matters in his own due time.—Isaiah 30:18. one day is like a thousand, so don't expect the big guy to do anything anytime soon.

Don't be too Christian, you'll raise red flags
by neat blue dog infor the past few years all my comments and talks have been a purely christian message.
i tiptoe around wt dogma and focus on the basics of love, life compassion, etc.
and i deliberately do not use jw terminology whenever i can.

You mean you don't say Jehovah this and Jehovah that at least twice in each sentence? What a breath of fresh air you must be.
