Did becoming a JW influence you to give up something you enjoyed ?
by smiddy3 inwhen i was a teenager a younger fellow workmate was involved in the sport of judo.i got interested and went along to a number of sessions and took to it like a sponge to water ,and as a sport i was happy participating in.. not that much longer another workmate was getting re-activated in the religion of jw`s.
which i had never heard o before and then got interested in that .. conflict : was judo a sport that was compatible with j.w beliefs?
sadly i decided it was not and stopped any further involvement.. to this day i resent that decision i made back then .and i`m 82 years old now.. it was a sport i was comfortable doing and i enjoyed it.and i gave it up because of the religion .who knows what i may have achieved had i continued with it.

Looks identical to the GL.iNet GL-AR750 mini router. (With the name covered up)
which costs $45 on Amazon.com
wholesale price after volume discounts should be even lower
I presume that our “non-profit” Watchtower is again selling ”free” “spiritual” provisions with 100% markup...

@ Vidiot "...the Org leadership must be very confused by now."
Exactly! Where is Jehovah when you realy need him? (To cover up the "faithful and discreet" slave's gross negligence and incompetence...)

Bringing Your Files Up To Date!
by Atlantis inseveral of the members here have written to us and remarked that they would like to bring their file folders up to date.. some believe they are missing a letter, form, or manual here or there.
so, i asked atlantis to put a folder together for me to send out to folks, so that they could bring their files up to date and fill in missing documents.. the file folder he put together has everything you can think of in it.
including the kitchen sink, bedroom slippers, and extra toilet paper just in case there is another shortage.. the folder goes back 10 years.. 2010 to 2020--06--04 right up until today.

2019 Annual Meeting: more F.O.G.
by neat blue dog inafter the new construction project is announced, anthony morris the turd gives a talk where he arrogantly tells the audience to 'get over it' and get to work.
he says relaxing is fine and 'im not trying to put a guilt trip on you' but you all need to get busy.
no graciousness at all for the endless volunteer labor they demand for whatever new projects they dream up.

Email from JW relative/elder
by Lynnie inas much as i enjoy you and pete's company, you also know our understanding of how much we want you to be reunited with jehovah and his people.. .
we did not set the standards for what jehovah says about our associations with those who choose to not serve him.
so we will always be there for you and pete, but it is in your hands as to how we can enjoy your friendship.. .

Re: "It isNOT NOT NOT about the price, and getting a better rate for the "friends", as we have all thought."
I agree! I always found that I can get a better deal when booking for a convention at a non-recommended hotel myself and not revealing I'm booking as a witness for a convention.
And I know for sure that here in Pargue hotels pay 15% kick-back to agencies bringing guests. I believe it's this agency fee that the WT is going after while pretending it has negotiated favorable terms for the "friends".

Do you think you could use this opportunity in a way that would backfire on them? If they are breaking protokol and overreaching, could you meet with them, meekly let them do their thing, and only then step down. In your resignation letter (so that it goes permanently on record) you could explain that their lack of christian love leading to their ABUSE of "theocratic arrangement" is the real reason for your resignation. If it was me, I would be very tempted to take those ar*****les down with me. If they intend to question your qualification as an elder, could you perhaps use this opportunity to reveal that in fact they are wolfs in sheep skin? I would even try to record the meeting. I think you have a precious opportunity to gain your freedom looking like a victim, while they are risking that they end up looking really bad not only in the eyes of the congregation but also your COBE and CO, with a bit of luck they could even end up blacklisted. From my experience, they wouldn't like that at all.
