46(As promised) BETHEL TRIP part 7. Loosing my balance
by seven006 inas i was trying to settle into my new life i constantly plagued myself with questions about where i had been and a bigger question, where i was going.
in the mid eighties there wasn't easy access to any exjw's to ask questions and help me through a very difficult transition in my life.
today the internet offers a lot of support through a large collection of exjw's from all over the world who offer many various options based on their own personal experience on where to go once you are out of the cult.

Every time I see her I see a true feminist, fighting for the cause of women, not these fake feminists wearing pussy hats and burqas as a symbol of defiance against Trump. That's just absurd. Ayaan is a beautiful woman inside and out, powerful and intelligent.

......and evidently Jerusalem was destroyed in 607BCE because well, it's evident when you read the information in the literature the WT provides you. (Please DO NOT do any research outside of our WT approved literature. Satan is a roaring lion seeking to devour you up with facts and we don't want that!)

CNN is a complete joke. Even my aunt and uncle who used to watch CNN faithfully on a daily basis have changed to local news only. You have to watch the first video tho cause its super funny!

I love how only two groups are responsible for the majority of the child abuse: The JW and the RCC. Considering the RCC has 1.7 Billion members, the total percentage of child abuse is very low compared to the JW with only 8 million (pathetic) members. The irony is stunning. Years ago I remember the WT would go on long rants about how bad the Catholic Church was and they had many child abuse cases and the JWs I knew were actually celebrating that news because it made them look good. Suddenly, their scandal has been exposed and now they are silent!

New letter about Circuit Conventions accounting procedures
by Hecce ini hope that one of the friends will post the letter soon.
i heard that on 3/27/2017 a letter with new instructions about the accounts at the circuit conventions was released.
the letter seems to adopt many of the corrections that had been suggested here at the forum, among other things during the accounts report they will be no mention of the per capita and the amount due is going to be released only to the elders.

Very interesting stuff. It only further confirms how Assemblies are a cash making scheme for the Org
I think it was always a cash making scheme for the Borg... eye opening from an ex-elder. I always wonder why there was a deficit at every convention even when the building was paid for, electricity is very cheap and trash removal is minimal... why would a one day assembly cost $12k?

Number of Muslims protesting London terrorist attack = negligible.
Number of Muslims who protested the Danish paper's cartoons = many thousands world-wide, lots of flag-burning, embassy burning, proclamations of death to the West, violence, and the odd murder or two.
More Muslims protested about a f**king cartoon than protested about a lunatic who ran over pedestrians and stabbed a police officer to death. That's shameful.
Kpop's thread is a good one and his point remains ...
Thank you LUHE. Actually that of course is the point of this entire thread but it was lost on those with their biases showing and their heads up their asses. Thank you for mentioning the cartoon as well. Muslims worldwide came out to protest a cartoon but a terrorist attack that killed people that is indeed 100% in the name of Islam is NOT protested says everything. My example was in France, hundreds of Muslims came out and blocked the streets and protested just two days after the attack to protest the closure of an illegal Mosque. That is correct, a Mosque that was deemed illegal by a court for various infractions was closed and hundreds of Muslims came out to protest that..... but how many came out to protest this attack? To make things worse, on the Arabic news feed of the attack in London, hundreds of "ordinary Muslims" laughed and celebrated and cheered the attacks saying things like "Praise Allah for he has punished the infidels" and "We need more lone wolves to attack the infidels in the name of Allah!"
But of course the left says, "this has nothing to do with Islam..." I still noticed that none of the usual defenders here dared to touch that video because it says everything we need to know. It reminds me of a meme I saw floating around that had a radical Muslim holding a knife and suicide vest chanting "death to Americans and Jews KILL KILL KILL infidels!" and in the next frame on CNN a reporter saying, "he doesn't really mean that!" I don't understand the infatuation with defending the most dangerous of ideologies on earth....

I love how I hear almost everyday on the TV how we should not worry about Muslim extremists in America but instead the real threat is right wing Christians. Well then, riddle me this:
"If Muslims are so peaceful, why are so many people afraid to offend them? If Christians are so dangerous, why is nobody afraid to offend them?"
I hate nothing more than the deceitful lying media changing the script and now praising Islam while attacking Christians. I don't like any religion, but I never feel that I have to be worried if I went to an all Christian event if I was wearing a rainbow flag shirt or a shirt that said, "Jesus was a jerk." At the most I would be berated. On the other hand if I did the same at an Islamic event I would be physically attacked.
