  by Drifting Away in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am starting to get to the boiling point, to make a long story short, i am getting hounded from alot of family and elder visits.

  i sorta put a halt on the elder visits, but the family is starting in on me now.

  anyway to get back to topic, what scripture is it that says something to the affect of that do not judge how some celebrate there customs or beliefs or something like that?.

  The whole chapter is about "get lost trying to judge me".

  Is Pokemon Demonic?

  by Saename in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  [spoiler: pokemon is an invitation to communication with or possession by demons because... well... pokemon comes from demons.

  so... i was looking through different questions on quora, and i noticed one that read, "is pokemon demonic?

  " i was interested in seeing what people have to say, especially that not so long ago there was a thread (or a post in a thread?

  Yeah, there are some cuckoo JW promotors on Quora. I battle them when I feel like it, exposing all their dirty little secrets.

  Btw this guy isn't even the worst of them. Some just answer every question with a short but shameless 'find your answer on jw.org' plug. This guy just writes down his own weird beliefs without (directly) promoting the cult.

  @blondie,

  What's strange about the name plates? They look like the ones they always have in the Netherlands.

  @Stuckinarut2,

  I wish you did know, because I would have one more apostate friend that I know irl :-D

  And I don't care much if I'm outed. Everyone who knows me knows I'm out anyway. And while I'm not DFed/DAed after last convention that might not make a difference anymorr either.

  It's just that finding out my activities here would very much upset my wife, and I'd like to prevent that from happening :-D

  @rpt....yeah I wonder when he will wake up.
  He's not about following the JW rules at all.
  Sometimes I wonder if he even cares about (this) religion...

  Oooh I know tulip guy. If anyone asks, I'll ferociously deny we're related in any way.
  Last convention he wore a white suit with matching hat and cane, like a mafia boss of old time :-D

  To be fair, this is

  1. ..not typically Dutch behavior. There's a Dutch saying 'Doe maar gewoon, dan doe je al gek genoeg!' which would literally translate into something like: 'Just act normal, then you're acting crazy enough as it is!'. Most people here live by that. So this guy's a bit unlike normal (boring) Dutch people.
  2. ...an international convention in which you can dress up any way you want, right?

  Dutch convention: disassociation in broader perspective

  by Gorbatchov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  today at the utrecht international convention in holland there was no "word in spanish" about dissassociation.. "we avoid any contact with dissassociated witnesses.

  not only sinners, but in a broader perspective, also inactive witnesses".. there was a lot of noise in the hall direct after that moment.. so, no fading escape in the near future, i expect.. g..

  Thanks for the update Gorby.

  My wife and in-laws were in Zwolle but they probably heard similar bullsh...sadly. Anyway, I'm thinking about forcing the few JW friends I have left into showing their face by contacting them next week to get together...

  
  

  Did they play the shunning video where Sonya is kicked out of the house by her dad and her mother doesn't answer the phone?
