1st timothy 2 vs 14 .
14 and adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.
oh, ok, so adam wasn't deceived by the woman, lol so hes so innocent?
Oh yeah that's how the GB want women, barefoot and pregnant and keeping their mouths shut 'I do not permit a woman to teach'!
Somehow we are responsible for everything that is wrong in the world because Eve was deceived. So Adam was not deceived and wilfully disobeyed but still men can be the head of the house? It must be because I am so emotional and illogical that I can't understand this.
great answer to a stupid question - what would you say if you're wrong, if god does exist and you go to meet him when you die?.

i was deleted as the cobe after i let my adult child move back home and he admitted that he fornicated under my roof while my wife and i where away on a rbc project.
of course the elder mode in me kicked him out of the house.. the elders moved quickly to remove me because i was too involved in "theocractic activities", i had neglected my adult son.. i accepted this primarily because i didn't want to serve with a boe that did not want me.
i was devastated however because it was the only life i knew.
i have seen a few here on this forum.
i just came across on in a book i'm reading that i thought i would share with you, appropriate to the forum.. "men think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one".
charles mackay in extraordinary popular delusions and the madness of crowds (1841).
BigMike very well done! Years of work have lead to a very worthwhile profession. Enjoy your success, you've earned it.
have you all read this weeks study article?.
oh my word it is full of fear inducing tactics....doom and gloom outlooks.... anxiety inducing methods to develop absolute control over witnesses and cripple them in any attempt to think for themselves!.
(notice i am saying "themselves" rather than "ourselves"?!
More beating them over the head with the idea they must stay in an organisation to be safe. The inner rooms connected to the KHs will protect them when the big A comes. Such a primitive ides. People have been rushing into churches and temples as the buildings fall on them or the lava pours down for thousands of years. A deeply entrenched fear in the human psyche exploited by this cult.
All to keep reeling in the individuals who are exhausted with the constant doctrinal changes and want to find their God away from an organisation that keeps verbally beating them to do more. Only a building can save them?? Whatever happened to a relationship with God!
do you think it is possible that the g.b.is deliberately giving out mis-information to confuse either apostates or media that might be investigating them for one reason or another ?
speak out of both corners of their mouth .
and the reason they do so ?
a few weeks ago i was working out of my home state and was in a grocery store parking lot when i received my first jw witness since leaving jwdom.
a youngish-looking lady was sitting in an suv parked next to my car and i was about to get in my car to leave.
she opened the door and asked whether she could give me something to read (had a tract in her hand)..
if they are this happy, why do they keep taking down this video?

HAVE ALL OF YOU FORGOTTEN WHAT IT'S LIKE IN WTLAND?!?!? - Billy
Oh Billy no I haven't, why are you shouting?
That's why I asked the question where is this vid from. It's so cultish. From one of the most controlling religions in the world that made us miserable, pretending they are the happiest people in the world.
I have seen about five threads on this vid talking about how disgusting it is, should dancing be allowed, should people dressed as Bible characters dance and the obvious question, to me anyway, is where did it come from.
i have been a regular visitor to this site for several years now.
i never really felt the need to set up an account and post...until now.
at the close of yesterdays meeting, an older brother gave the prayer.
