My ex-husband used to cut open the toothpaste tube and scrape out the last little bit.

The UN's motto means the END OF DAYS!! Gloom and DOOM
by Honeybucket ina email has been going around the witness community explaining how prophecies are falling into place concerning the wild beast.
aparantly the un's motto this year is "peace and security" 1 thes 5:3 "whenever it is that they are saying peace and security then sudden destruction is to be instantly upon them just as the pangs of distress upon a pregnant woman aand they by no means will escape".. according to this scripture the "end" should already be here since peace and security has already been declared by the un; i do wonder if this was done on purpose as a slap in the face to wtbs, due to them gb declaring the un a wicked and destable thing.. i would love to hear your thoughts on this matter.. honeybucket.

I remember every time some big event happened I would roll it around in my mind trying to come up with a scenario that would lead to The End.
The Society isn't going to discourage the R&F from grabbing hold of anything that keeps them in a state of urgency.

I'm sure there would be much gnashing of teeth and rending of garments if they did discover it.

Our First Halloween
by Red Piller in(i grew up in the "truth".
) very risky, considering we are still active in the cong..... so we started at the first house and methodically walked up and down each driveway as worked along the street.. we were quickly over-taken by kids who were zig-zagging across lawns and doing houses in random order.
suddenly, it dawned on me.

Suddenly, it dawned on me. OMG! Were doing the houses in the standard field service pattern!
LOL! What would have been worse is if you were keeping not-at-homes.

My Introduction
by Left in the Cold ini have posted on here a little, and i thought i should probably introduce myself the best i can right now.
i stumbled upon this site and told my sister about it.
then, sometime later she started discussing things with me that's she has seen or read (she's in therapy, as well, which probably has made her kind of rethink things).

Jeepers! They couldn't look less joyful if they were at a funeral!
That's fascinating about the drop in numbers. I hope that happens again.

Good grief, a sister (even one who is annointed) speaking out about false teachings? I'm surprised they didn't stone her.

I remember being on a tour of the home in Brooklyn and seeing a very elderly brother untangling and stacking wire coat hangers. Our tour guide introduced us and said that this brother had been a Bethelite since the '20s. He wasn't anyone prominent, just a R&F Bethelite. I think as long as they're able to contribute something they can stay.
What happens if they develop dementia, but due to putting off marriage and children they have no family to take care of them? Dump 'em on a congregation?

Survey: Who here is an atheist? Who here still believes in God?
by Christ Alone ini just wanted to take a survey.
let's not let this get into the same old same old debate of atheism vs belief.
just respond with "atheist" or "believer" or "maybe god exists".

Believer in some higher power, but not the god of the bible.

Faders Independence Day!!!!!!!
by Unbrainwashed publisher1 ingo inot the hall on sunday or day of theocratic service meeting and during meeting simply get up and say i "such and such" disassociate myself from jehovah's witnesses and quietly walk out!
this lets you own your story and take the power out of their hands, it as well sparks interest in those around who may contact you later to see why you left.
it is not them kicking you out it is you leaving this false religious business.

I taped my DA letter to the door of the kingdom hall. Too bad I put it in an envelope.
