she had that one comin to her.

I agree with you for the most part, but she wasnt just mouthy. She pushed him, and I believe while he was driving although that might not be the case. She turned it into a physical confrontation.

Ive got a close friend who works in a center home for troubled youth. Hes assisting and monitoring petty dope dealers, bangers, etc.. He was telling me that dealing with the young men was easy compared to the females. With the men he only has to earn their respect as men typically do. The females on the other hand, hes had to get physical with them. The girl in this video is a typical example of that. A hoodrat that needed to get checked.

I'm on a tablet and havent quite figured out posting videos. Be my guest if you'd like to post it.

I dont condone hitting women but that girl was anything but and was egging him on. He does probably need a desk job. I'd never take a job like that. I dont know how people deal with the public on that level.

Snares of the Devil - Questioning the motives of those who pioneer

by Quarterback in

jw
friends

the wt for today, can't remember exactly what paragraph, stated the dangers of the tongue.

it went further to mention that we wouldn't want to question the motives of a sister who was appointed in the congregation as a pioneer.

there was even a picture to add emphasis.. who on earth questions that?

Theocratic Sedition

No we dont. They simply come off the list with the CO and Service Committee hoping they can eventually pioneer again sometime in the future.

can't make this up

by pontoon in

so this 70 something yr old brother, ex bethelite, ex spec pioneer, current pioneer with over 50 yrs of full time service is lamenting he might have to step down as an elder because he is computer ignorant.

i guess the org uses the internet to communicate with elders and having internet access is required of elders.

anyway he's going to dunkin donuts with his wife and he sees free wifi.

Theocratic Sedition

It is funny, poor guy. Feel bad sometimes for older people trying to keep up in this tech savy culture. My father had been buggin me to help him on a computer, and I'm hesitant because I know he'll never get it. Its hilarious when he brings up the Conti case to those who may not know about it. He says,"It's on that Google, you should check it out!"

The old man paroled on Shawshank Redemption comes to mind when I think of older ones trying to keep up in todays society. I dont like to laugh at them too much because the same dog that bit them is gonna bite me someday too.

DO Brown Payne tells SA audience Serena Williams "disciplined" by her local elders for swearing on TV

by oppostate in

at today's special assembly in natick ma, bro brown payne annouced to the audience that serena williams was disciplined by her local elders for her swearing escapade on tv.. saying: "can jehovah's witnesses swear like that on tv?

" then he told the audience that she was "disciplined" by the elders of the congregation she's a publisher in.. doesn't this smack of revealing the private business of another person?

the most the local elders could have said was "a matter concerning serena williams has been handled by the elder body".

Theocratic Sedition

Your SAD was in Mass., and Serena's congregation is in Cali right? Why would he bring that up? I wonder if was acting on his own or got orders from headquarters? Serena isnt even baptized and I find hard to imagine that she has time to be an unbaptized publisher, so on what grounds could they discipline her?

I imagine she is still a bit of a problem for the WT as she's easily the most high profile associate of JWs. How does a control freak org like the WT keep her in line?

He sounds like someone more upset about his advanced age than anything. If he's not proficient with a computer he can still get all the letters off of any elder with access, especially the secretary. Internet access is NOT a requirement.

Theocratic Sedition

I think the haters vary by congregation. We've got a couple pioneers whos appointments caused some discussion. The people questioning them being pioneers had more issues with their personalities than their qualifications. Much of it was typical catty stuff that women seem to excell at. Then again, maybe they knew better than the Service Committee, cuz neither one of the pioneers I'm referring to made their time for the past two years.

I thought it was interesting they showed two sisters badmouthing the new pioneer, cuz sisters sure do badmouth one another, especially 20ish to 40ish sisters. Dont let them find out some sister in the hall snagged a man either. Open season at that point.

How do you feel about birthdays and Christmas now?

by Chariklo in

jw
friends

i wonder...for those of you who were brought up as a jw or who have been "in" for many years, how do you feel about birthdays and christmas and celebrations in general now?.

the indoctrination/brainwashing is very strong.

once you are out, or, perhaps, still in but totally disillusioned and sure that it is all a lie, not the truth, do you find that you are determined to celebrate like mad to make up for what you missed, or do you find you have a lingering sense of guilt, however irrational you may now think it is?.

Theocratic Sedition

I missed out on a lot because of this religion, but I have to give credit where it's due. Thank you Watchtower for causing me to not feel like I missed out on jack shit when it comes to birthdays and holidays. To celebrate a birthday to me is the ultimate in arrogance. Like my old barber used to tell me as a teenager, "if you think you're important, drop dead." Who gives a f#$# about what day you were born. People suffer and die every day on the date of someone's birth. Besides, what makes the date of someone's birth special anyway? I'm glad I've never celebrated a birthday and to be honest with you the thought of it is somewhat repugnant. I still tell someone happy birthday when they announce their special day as I'm happy to see other people happy. It's still a stupid excuse to celebrate something, but if it makes you happy then have fun.

Christmas disgusts me. Commercial bull shit and a sorry excuse for the family to get together and get sentimental. Stupid songs, stupid children with their stupid parents, stupid holiday hours, stupid colors, phony emotions and sentiments, etc... Not to mention Christmas is about as Christian as Louis Farrakhan. It has pagan roots, and there's nothing to support Christ's birthday being around the time Christmas is celebrated. Honestly, I hate Christmas and I wouldn't have a problem if the goverment outlawed it tonight. Stupd holiday.
