How can you thank Jehovah for a win in a major and at the same time do the humpy bumpy catepillar dance whilst unmarried and think he still blesses you?
Is the fact she is now pregnant mean Jehoover will not bless her results?
Cuckoo...
now that she has announced that she is 20 weeks pregnant and not married, what is her status in the cult?

mrs phizzy and myself will be eating out, sure in the knowledge we will not have jw's using the same restaurant.. i may have a cigar along with my brandy at the meal's end to celebrate my (our) freedom..
Drinking fermented Red Wine and eating a crapton of leavened bread...at home.
i heard recently that there was a talk given at the kh about having a 'go bag' ready because the big 'a' must be soooo close as evidenced by syria and the russian jobo thing.. does anyone know if this 'go bag' thing is substantiated in publications or just a local nut job being paranoid and attention seeking?.
i also wonder about this 'go bag' thing, apparently, you need to make sure your biscuits (that's cookies to my over the pond friends), are not out of date.
don't carry water, it's too heavy.. too many questions do i have.
It's been recommended for a while now...my wife has asked me to help her get one ready...she asked about 3 years ago..still haven't done it yet.
i seriously doubt that any jw understanding of prophecy has ever withstood the test of time.
how can anyone trust them when they are always wrong?
?.
Is any bible prophecy right though?
what is it with this pair?
why do they have to constantly have a bitch about guys like john cedars?
a very recent video of them shows them calling him a 'village idiot' and making other disparaging claims.
To be fair that is problem with most J-dubs, especially men. I am Cedars age and was born into the religion. I have this problem too. You are raised to feel like you're better than everyone else and you have an innate sense of being right when everyone else is wrong. The effects of this can last a lifetime.
So do you think it is wise to then be an activist? To be in the public eye so to speak? To therefore be reasonable? Mild? Open to discussion? Willing to admit you are wrong? Willing to take advice?
If you are going to be an activist like Cedars is then I'm sorry but you need to show certain characteristics that come with a more public facing persona.
And he doesn't...he now has divided exjws because some like him some do not. The opposite of what should be happening...the exjw community should be getting stronger as more come out but it is getting fragmented with camps...its almost like they are bitter, mentally-diseases apostate! Well...that is how they will be viewed by dubs who are on the fence and come across their videos of activists attacking each other.
I have nothing against the man personally, I do not know him but some of the things he does I do not like but it is his attitude, especially when it comes to constructive criticism, on forums, that shows he is lacking in these areas.

I wouldn't mind seeing the examples of where Cedars shoots people down who don't agree with him.
Look up his posts on Reddit...awash with his replies to points that are fair but he can't take it.
I've had many a post war with him. I made a comment that one of his more professional videos, one he released to various media outlets about child abuse, which was a good video, where I commented that for advertising, presentation and "first look" points it may have been better if he had at least tidied up his physical appearance.
In the video his hair is a mess and he is unshaven.
Nothing wrong with that, people can look how they want but I simply made the point that if you want to get taken seriously and want to present a professional outlook then appearance is important...advertising 101 if you will.
You would have thought it was the most personal insult the guy has ever had...the replies back and forth we had were incredible...I was simply offering a point to help his videos get better coverage yet he could NOT take any point from anyone on whatever he does.
His ego is huge...
the trial has begun.
the crowd on the street (see photo) is now inside and the gallery is packed.. yesterday jehovah's witnesses presented a written legal argument - "objections to the administrative claim of the ministry of justice of the russian federation" - to the supreme court of russia which, in paragraph 254, argued that if the ministry for justice liquidates and bans the activities of jehovah's witnesses then this will force individual members to renounce or abandon their religion for fear of persecution.. download legal argument (russian).

Oh right so Mark Sanderson from the GB can turn up in Russia to defend the WT but they can't go to Australia to defend themselves for their horrendous child abuse policies?
Which is worse in their eyes? Being banned in a country or stopping the environment where systematic abuse of children occurs?
The answer is obvious by their attendance!

russian supreme court considers outlawing jehovah's witness worship.
the russian supreme court could declare the jehovah's witnesses an extremist organization in a wednesday hearing, a move that would lead to the seizure of the church's headquarters near st. petersburg and the outlawing of the group’s organized worship.. in advance of the hearing, international concern has grown.
OrphanCrow's letter is an April Fool's is it not?

Activist fights...they all want to be popular and be the number one source for people leaving the JW's.
It's been occurring for a while now...all their ego's are getting bigger and bigger and they care less about what they are actually doing.
But Lloyd is certainly one of them, his ego is huge...I like some of his content...but the attitude of him...I'll pass...his book is just an example of this.
I think a lot of activists who do not like Lloyd do so because he is athiest and offers an explanation why...in the case of Mike & Kim they are thiests and thus take massive umbridge from what Lloyd says.
In the last 5 years all these guys have popped up and quite frankly they bore me...Paul Grundy's jwfacts.com is an excellent example of how to do it right.
is it true, as bro jackson testified to the australian royal commission, that people can leave the religion freely?.
in my own case, yes.
i just stopped going and was never announced as ''no longer one of jw's''.
Told the elders I have "doubts" and wanted some breathing room...5 years later they do not bother me...I don't go and they all still talk to me if they bump into me.
As per Jackson fading is possible.
