It is doubtful, yet delightful, even frightful to be a JW and think of the Big "A" coming.
But it is a joke the GB spoke
About the "gift" of Paradise for their followers.

In old Hollywood, RKO and MGM, ruled supreme.
Then it became tantamount to allow Paramount
To be in the leading three.
How did Disney Studios surmount this great privilege?
Money, prestige, and saying, make room for me, took the lead.

fact number one: .
the writers and leaders of the watchtower claim it isn't mere imperfect men making their best guesses who publish these things needing "refinements".. "this chronology is not of man, but of god.
being of divine origin and divinely corroborated, present-truth chronology stands in a class by itself, absolutely and unqualifiedly correct...." (watchtower, july 15, 1922 p. 217).
Oh... How we allowed ourselves to be deceived
When we closed our minds and eyes
To just Believe
All the Watch Tower published, lies.
LL
how do ya figure this!??.

DaringHart13... Pray tell, please, can you figure out, why after enjoying themselves, in JW sin, people think they have to turn themselves, in???
I asked my (ex) elder husband, this question:
The WT Society says if you are "practicing sin", you can be disfellowshipped .
So to be practicing , it had to be more than "once".
So my question to my ex was...
What is considered once?
Having sex once or
Going away and having a wild weekend once or...
Having a boyfriend and seeing him steadily for one year, (or more) as in having only "one" affair with "one" person. lol
-----> He never answered.

when rutherford assumed the presidency of the watchtower society he instituted series of sweeping changes to the teachings and practices of the bible students.
some of these changes were at complete odds with what had been taught previously.
a key example was the elevation of the watchtower society as "god's visible organization on earth".
@MetaTron... Yes. I believe too that it is likely they will be getting rid of the magazine The Watchtower.
How many times have we had the door shut in our face with "The Watchtower? No thank you". lol
Now it is: "Knock, knock. JW.org, here". "Oh, what is that?" as an honest hearted, but innocent and lonely householder takes a tract. Bingo for WT/GB/JW.org.
Bang shut goes the door on a new trapped drone...
I look forward to what this Oct 2014 annual meeting "reveal" will reveal. lol

My (ex) brother-in-law got a registered letter way back in 1971. He had committed the "dirty" with his new blonde girlfriend, who he did marry after getting rid of my sister. He ignored it, saying that the JW religion means nothing to him. He said, Why should I go to a JC and tell those jerks anything?
So yes, he was DF in absentia.
I called him over 10 years ago about some family matters. He mentioned to me about Beth Sarim. I knew a tiny bit about it, but I wished he had told me more, or reminded me more about the ridiculousness about it. He just said, You know about Beth Sarim don't you? I said yes. End of conversation.
He called his ex, my sister, or else he talked to his son, my nephew and told them I had called. My sister called long distance to my Elders here, saying I had spoken to a DF'd person and that I, LoisLane , should now be disfellowshipped ! lol lol My Elder's reply was, We do not want to get involved in any family squabbles. lol lol
