  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  so says the royal commission.

  which we all can agree.

  his expressed sympathy is a hollow sham and it is the same way with all the governing body's expressions of love and concern for all loyal member captured by their organization into servitude.

  What Was The Silliest "Offense" That You Were Counseled For?

  by minimus in

  1. jw

  when i was a teenager, i was told by an elder that because i smiled a lot and was known for my good sense of humor, that i should come across as "more serious".

  so before i was appointed a ms, while in my late teens, i transformed myself into a much more "serious" brother.. were you ever told that you needed to work on something that you knew was stoopid?.
