i thought i would break the suspense and tell everyone what the new book is going to be at the district convention.
i can't believe that anyone has not brought it out yet.
are you ready?
TheApostleAK thank you for the link. This is something that I've been looking to research further. I have a bias against the NWT but never looked at the scholarly information out there. I hope this site is what I'm looking for.

witnesses abstain from blood, right.....cool.
but] they will eat blood that is contained in meat i.e.
steak etc.
I seem to know very few JW's that like their steaks anything but well done.
It took me years before I knew the total enjoyment of a rare steak!

is becoming more & more intolerable, this fool has now taken.
to sleeping on the sofa and thinks he will be able to get a apartment.
with horrible credit.. i am trying not to become bitter and mean but its very hard, to see a grown man whine about his "soul" and the more i think about it.
Call his Kingdom Hall, ask for the Presiding Overseer. Then tell the PO that you have one of his flock sleeping and living at your apartment and ask for suggestions as to what to do with him.He will soon after that be DE-FLOCKED, or totally flocked, probably will be disfellowshipped and will have a swift kick in the reality check. It aint your week to watch him babe...kick his sorry ass to the curb.
I totally agree with Lovedubs! Flock his ass!! Calling the PO would be a total get back for the 4 years you wasted.
Flock him!

i was driving past a disused kingdom hall last week, here in wsm.
it looked very out of place with its watchtower crennelations, like a mediaevel sort of castle, with a huge sign announcing that this was now the home of the british red cross.
however, we are now blessed with a new, quick-build kingdom hall on the outskirts of town.. but this is not the true story, this quick-build kingdom hall took 3 months to erect, unlike the publicity blurb handed out to our local newspaper which claimed that the work was done in 3 days.. being involved in the building trade, i knew that the local equipment hire company had been supplying the dubs with concrete mixers, diggers, back hoes and jcb's for fully 3 months before the build officially started.. all the ground work was done weeks beforehand, all the services laid on, the roof trusses were ready and waiting as was the curtain walling and window shutters.

Sold to the British Red Cross???!?!? Don't miss the irony here!

on your way out, did you have the 'talk' with an elder?
(or elders?
) the kind of, 'excuse me, brother only-elder-who-i-really-trust, i've been having serious doubts about such-and-such and i would really appreciate it if you could help me see if i'm missing something, i sincerely want to know...'.
Thank you for sharing your story. Sometimes when I read stories like this or Venice's, I wish that I had a story to tell too.
Maybe someday I'll post something but they are mostly skimishes nothing heavy like this.
Sometimes I would love to just scream, rant and rave at the elders but somehow I always seem to avoid doing it.

hi everyone, i just read esmerelda's post, i can see where she's coming from, being a new member, myself.. i understand, though, that people have already made friends and have their own little community, and that's fine.. i don't mind at all, i just hope that i can get people's attention by saying something that hasn't been said before...... i'm struggling though......... bye bye.

But I love the posts here and the information and over time you will get to know and love me just like Fred Hall. hehehe
If you all can get over me replying with my two cents on every topic!

Honey,
I am so sorry that this isn't working out for you. I am an ex-JW for 7 years and the religion still interferes with my relationships.
If you are finished with him and the relationship, then get him out of there as soon as you can. While it may be over for you too, hopefully losing you will snap him out of this and see the the JW's just interfere in everything.
A little cold blooded, but JW's usually need a good kick in the teeth to wake up. I know I did.

wtbts arguments against internet correspondence.. .
1. you never know for sure with whom you are communicating.. 2. they may be apostates.. 3. they may lie to you, and you won't be able to tell.. 4. they may be boys pretending to be girls.. 5. they may be porn pushers.. 6. they may be child abusers.. 7. they will waste your preaching time.. 8. there's "nothing quite like" face to face speech.. duck shooting season is upon us friends.
roll up, rollup for the summer quack-attack.
"We've heard that the internet has a lot of good and useful things on it, and that there are only a few areas dangerous to Christians on it. However, would you venture into your backyard if you heard that rather than being FULL of poisonous snakes, that there were only a FEW poisonous snakes?"
Most backyards in the world have a few.
I always loved the drop of poison in the water analogy. However, aren't the Democrats and the President arguing over how many parts per million of arsenic are acceptable in water right now?
