I wouldn't attend the Zone Overseer™ visit if it was held in my own back yard.
Those @$$holes' egos are surpassed only by their sense of entitlement. I have more respect for myself than to kowtow to a bunch of pompous self-important nobodies.

i thought this was a very good quote from seth godin's daily blog: .

is everyone entitled to their opinion?perhaps, but that doesn't mean we need to pay the slightest bit of attention.. there are two things that disqualify someone from being listened to:.
'consumer', 'stakeholder' or 'someone with significant leverage'
In a research context, those are the kinds of individuals whose opinions are taken with a grain of salt (and usually require potential conflict of interest disclosures), because their opinions are coloured by their biases.

marion county assault victim remains hospitalized.

He appears to have an eerily similar MO to JW convicted violent sex offender Curtis Thompson.
I know of a JW female who fled from an abusive JW Elder™ husband. She found a place to stay overnight with a male co-worker. The husband found out and had a couple of his buddies spy on the premises to see her coming and going. She was DFd on grounds of adultery, despite the co-worker and his same sex partner vouching for the fact that she did not engage in sexual misconduct while in their home.
Oddly enough, the husband filed for divorce and remarried before the ink was dry on the divorce decree. The turn-around time between wife #1 and wife #2 was unseemly.
Maybe you should ask her if she's had all her shots first.
what if a powerful government were to hatch a plot to exterminate jehovah's witnesses as an organization?.
they ask this question at the bottom of page 23 of the july wt, and i thought the wording was kind of strange.
the target is not jws "the people" (as in nazi germany) but the org alone.
This fear-mongering is going to make JWs even more suspicious of The Superior Authorities™ than they already are. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised in coming years to see them making hints at 'taking matters into your own hands' to ensure the Organization™ is protected - from Apostates™, from the Disfellowshipped™ and from non-JW family members who refuse to become JWs.
I would be extremely careful around any JW whom I knew to have firearms.
on 4/6, the poster orphan annie posted about her experiences with jw's and her ill husband.
unfortunately, her husband died monday, and she is feeling very sad.
i just wanted to make others aware of it, so that we can encourage her and give her some much needed support during this rough time.. her original thread is here.
So sorry for your loss, Orphan Annie.
Mr Scully and I went to see Neil Young a couple of years ago. He's still as bad@$$ as ever.
I'd like to have a maid too. Housework sucks.
