Awww.... How do the Elders know he had a sex reversal operation???
Did they ask him to show them the "goods"?
OMG This is just too much information to talk about in a room full of religious nutters who hate gays.
Does anyone think he will really be accepted now... as just one of the guys in The Official Men's Elder Club??? I don't think so.

Hi Simon,
My private message tab doesn't work. When I hit the green box... It opens only to say "Safari can't open page".
I have had a PM there since last Saturday.
I know you are busy, but when you have time, would you please see if it can be fixed?
Thank you so much.
PS Sorrry to ask on this person's OP but I have not been able to start my own topic for almost 2 years.
PSS Would it also be possible to fix whatever it is that needs fixing so that I can personally respond to PM's? I haven't been able to respond to private messages for over a year.
Thank you Simon. I really appreciate you looking into this.

There were some higher ups (Bethelites, CO, DO, SP, missionaries) that believed it all. Yes, some were in for so called glory. But the true, deluded, naive brother or sister that slaved for what they thought was a worth while goal... When they get kicked out and or wake up, those are the ones I feel bad about.
Are they lurking here? Are they PIMO now? Do they see that the GB pimped them out, then when they got too old and became a liability because of age or illness, GB discarded them like pimps who can't make money off of the backs of their workers anymore.
To wake up in old age and to realize you have been scammed badly, is very hard to take.
Ask me.

For Those Claiming That the GB are Simply Naive - Another Philly Story

When did anyone of the GB tell the truth? Only Raymond Franz did and he got the boot. No cushy pension plan for him!
Look up narcissist / psychopath. They lie for the thrill of it.
What happened to this girl at age 5 is horrible. This was no child play with another 5 year old. Her attacker was 14 years old! What about his parents? Did they feel no shame and not feel a need to report and possibly get their son some help? If not, why not?
Everything is wrong here. Unfortunately I have seen it too many times among JW..org's, god chosen... only true people... Point the finger at the victim and let the perpetrator go free. Discusting continious behavior Watchtower!

Hi Simon,
I need your help. On Sat. June 15, 2018 someone sent me a private message. The little green box is lit up, but I cannot open it. When I hit it it says "Safari can't open page".
I am no techno so I don't think I have done anything to it at my end.
Would you mind giving it a look at please?
Thank you!

JW Parents in bad shape with no retirement.
by blownaway inmy wife's parents are in very bad shape.

my father in law worked for a large american manufacturing company in the 60s and early 70s.

BlownAway, You seem like a really nice guy. A smart man who is looking out for his family. And you love your wife. All commendable.
Has your wife worked and put money into a retirement plan also? Do you see your financial planner together? Does she have any idea how much a good life costs? Is she concerned when she takes her credit card that what ever she buys, should be paid off by the end of the month so that there is no credit charge? Is she happily joining you in paying off the mortage? Do you save money together before you buy a car or anything major?
When you say your wife has taken some time off to spend with her parents, is that time off from a real job or from pioneering?
You say you haven't had a vacation for several years. Is your wife concerned for your health? Does she plan relaxing days, evenings with you in mind? Does she know your favorite beer, drink, meal? Does she have any idea what would make you happy?
I ask all of this because you seem so nice. Your wife knows you are not a walking, talking ATM machine right? I don't want her to take advantage of your goodness and kindness and think of it as a weakness which it is not.
Her parents had their time in the sun. Their sunset has approached. It is a sad truth.
If you have loved her and tried to cushion her from life's ugliness, sheltered her, and if she is a staunch JW, then she probably is not prepared for this eventuality that is happening to her aged parents. Old age and death. Sorry to say, not everyone has a pleasant ending.
Does your wife not get it that WT / JW..org has just strung her parents along, using them, to further their goals? WT is a worldwide real estate development business that uses the naivety of people to get what they want.
Fact for me. The ones I knew before 1975 that took their pension money out, or sold their home and or business and moved out of the big city, out of the couples I know that did that, one of each of the couples ended up with dementia. One couple, both husband and wife died from Alzheimer's. An exception was one who died a few years back. Not from dementia but obesity, diabetes, then fatal heart attack. All thought and preached that they would never die.
Is your wife 40, 50 years old and still thinks that she will not die? Does she spend time with her parents praying that The Big A comes quickly... still in their lifetime?
Have you and your wife made out your Will and discussed your own funeral plans? Has her parents? So many JW's I know do not plan. They can't think past having their "go bag" ready.
... sorry it is so long... sometimes... I have things to say.
