  with the unveiling of the new jw logo, and all of the emphasis placed on it , will the borg dare to put it on a flag?

  i hope they do!

  Why Do Witnesses Promote A Unhealthy Lifestyle, My COBE weighs 340lbs (5ft 7in).

  by BucketShopBill in

  2. beliefs

  please don't take this the wrong way if your battling weight problems, that's not what this thread is meant to talk about.

  i am asking this question because jehovah's witnesses claim they have "the best way of life", "god's blessing", "the truth" and are trying to change the habits of healthy people by turning them in to their own makings.

  i watched people who were great athletes turn all their muscle in to fat because we would get a elder or circuit overseer make remarks they were spending too much time "working out" and "bodily training is beneficial for little".

  I asked an obese fast-food loving elder/pioneer once: "What's worse? Smoking 1 or 2 cigarettes a week or consuming high-cholesterol fast-food almost daily?"

  (I was really taking a stab at him because he was on the JC that disfellowshipped a newly baptized publisher for smoking even though this elder couldn't stay away from all the pastry and burger establishments himself... the poor publisher was in his 40's and was really trying hard to quit smoking but simply couldn't... it happens)

  The elder didn't say a word for a few seconds (just a blank stare). Then, all he could think of to say was: "We'll talk about this later." Of course, he never approached me after that. In fact, he stayed away from me as much as possible which was great!

  Them thinking that pioneering is equal to my full time job!

  by LongHairGal in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  this was a topic that annoyed me and i got into a bit of an argument years ago over this.. some sister (who never worked a day in her life i might add) with the cushy life, affluent husband thought that because she pioneered it was equal to me having a full time secular job.

  there were others there who naively thought the same thing.

  somehow i gave them an inferiority complex because i worked so they had to dream this up to make themselves feel better.. while i agree that someone who pioneers may be physically tired at the end of the day, there is no comparison to what i have to deal with in going to and from and being on a full time job.

  A full time secular job is generally 40 hours a week.

  A full time pioneering gig is only about 17 hours per week.

  Sad by Jehovah's standards.

  "We're calling on your neighbours to promote a website"

  by Simon in

  wow, it's true - they don't call to 'promote god's kingdom' anymore but just their website!.

  we just had an old lady call and tell us that was exactly what they were doing and it has "lots of good things on their for children".

  yeah, right ... sparlock?.

  Sample Presentation

  "Many people feel that the internet is not a good source of truthful information. What is your opinion about this? (allow the house holder to respond, then say...) We are here to promote one website which has the most reliable and truthful information available on the internet today. (then open JW.org on your tablet, but be careful not to show the masturbation video as this may cause some house holders to stumble... then say...) We would like to return next week so we can browse this website together and explore the many truths that God has provided to his people."

  Use this presentation to obtain a book study in October.

  http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/49309980.

  u.s. marshals searching for accused child molester in eugene-areaeugene, ore. (kmtr) u.s. marshals are putting out a public plea in an effort to track down a wanted man believed to be in the eugene area, accused of molesting dozens of children in california.u.s.

  marshals from san diego are looking for 57 year old frederick cecil mclean, a suspect on the agencys top 15 most wanted list.. in 2005, mclean was charged with four counts of child molestation and one count of lewd and lascivious acts with a child under the age of 14. the u.s. marshals office says mclean sexual assaulted dozens children between the age of 7 and 12 over the course of about 20 years.. however, marshals say the search for mclean has since gone to cold case status.

  Do you know where Rick McLean is hiding?

  by AndersonsInfo in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i've been thinking that the michael norris case makes it clear that an accused jw perpetrator of child sexual abuse, who has been identified, can 'disappear' into another congregation in another place.

  in the case of michael norris, it's obvious that the watchtower knew norris was hiding in costa rica where he attended a jw congregation.

  so this makes me wonder if anyone still on the 'inside' knows where rick mclean is at present.

  America's Most Wanted episode... Rick McLean

  by stillconcerned in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  over a month ago, amw filmed several of rick mclean's victims who were victimized while he served in authority in a number of jw congregations in and around san diego, california.. .

  mclean found victims thru his involvement in jw congregations, and kept many quiet for years by intimidation/ 'no one will believe you'.. .

  the episode is 'in the can', and mclean, who fled when he learned he would be arrested, is on the loose.you can bet he is molesting some child presently; he is a lifetime molester.. .
