it’s funny how a simple question like this is something that the dubs never even consider.
my dad asked this question to a couple of witnesses and they wondered for a minute and said; .
“i never thought about it, i’ll have to ask the elders”.
Evidently they survived because they were closer to perfection. The perfect health that they enjoyed in the garden lasted long enough to overlap any ill effects that they otherwise would have experienced early on in their eviction.

LOL...When I first saw that title I thought you meant they were planning some kind of PR move to broadcast on NBC. This story broke a few days ago.
ok... so the william sisters have in the past spoken openly about their faith by saying they are jehovah witnesses.
but do they attend regular meetings?
door to door ministry?
William sisters....what’s that all about?
It's all about that bass, 'bout that bass, no treble.

@Vidiot:
"Trib" means something different now.

Maybe this is the big news that has been coming?
I hope so. I started a topic on this a while back, but it mysteriously received the Bermuda Triangle treatment.

So is this the big news John Cedars that guy we can't mention around here was referring to? It must be.
i'm very worried.
i just took out two slices of dave's killer bread out of the bag this morning, to make some toast.
i bought the bread almost 2 weeks ago.
Who’s Dave?
Dave's Killer Bread is an American company based in Milwaukie, Oregon, which makes organic whole-grain breads. It was founded in 2005 by Dave Dahl,[1] who learned the baking trade growing up in his family bakery. The company has steadily grown, expanding from 30 employees to more than 190 by 2010[2] and to 280 by the end of 2012, and has been covered by The New York Times[2] and MSNBC.[3] As of 2012, its bread was being sold at stores in 11 western states.[1]
In July 2015, Flowers Foods purchased the company for $275 million.[4]

domestic violence in the “tooth”... is this a thing?!.
you are starting to know me by now as i’m always full of questions... my clogs are always in motion and never stop... so another question for you to give me some guidance if you can.
based on pasts experience or cases you might heard of or seen, what advice could you give me in helping someone that is a jehovah witness, married with another jw but lives a marriage that is plagued by emotional domestic abuse and financial control?
What I'm about to say is not backed up by any official statistics or scientific research or whatever, just my personal experiences. Oftentimes, it's the elders themselves who are responsible for the abuse within their own homes, whether that abuse is physical, mental, or emotional. Of course this does not apply to all elders, but for the ones it does apply to, they should not be in romantic relationships, and they should not become fathers. They are complete and utter morons, emboldened to be abusive not only by the standard nonsense that all JWs are subjected to, but also by all of the extracurricular indoctrination designed only for them.
They are basically taught that anyone who is not an elder is beneath them, and they don't respect personal boundaries. They are taught that it's perfectly fine to sit in a small room with a woman, interrogating her about what kind of panties she had on when she fooled around, whether or not she shaved her groin, how many times she orgasmed, what positions were used, and if she enjoyed it. I once heard an elder on stage address all of the sisters in attendance, and he said that no matter what the elders ask, they should answer. He even went on to relate how some sisters actually have the nerve to get offended when certain questions are asked, and said that an uncooperative attitude should be avoided. Fuck him. I wanted to go up and use the edge of the stage to curb stomp his goddamn teeth out.
If a brother has any tendencies toward toxic masculinity, then becoming an elder will likely bring out the worst of his personality. Of course there is nothing wrong with being masculine, but there are just certain aspects of it that must be kept in check. I try to remind myself of that every day. I would recommend that you encourage this person to do secular research on narcissism and abuse, to talk to a professional counselor, and last but not least, to leave the fucknut that they joined in unholy matrimony, and start living a real life.
this video features radio personality charlamagne tha god and actress/host sherri shepherd, both raised in da troof.
charlamagne's mother is still active, and sherri's father is disfellowshipped.
even though they're physically out, you can clearly see that there is a small part of them still connected to the organization.

If I had the chance to go on radio, I would leave no room for doubt as to how I feel about Watchtower.
