greetings, fellow word lovers:.
please add your favorite, clever smithing of words.. ****************************.
time flies like an arrow and fruit flies like a banana..
When I was 16 my older sister and I were in Paris. After a few days we decided to head to the south of France.
This conversation actually took place at the train station. I'll begin with the ticket seller's queries then follow with my responses.
The ticket seller asked us in quick succession:
To which I replied:
Yes, sir!
No, sir.
And how do you do, sir?
We'll take two. Yes, two to Toulouse, sir!
i see there has already been discussion over lloyd’s new book how to leave the jehovah's witnesses.
this includes discussion around his personality, motives and financial gains.
i have written a foreword for this book, because it is an important topic that has not been covered in such a complete format before.
Dubstepped: Could it not be said that those that spend their time speaking against those that are actually doing something for the cause are making it about themselves?
You mean like you’re doing with a question like that? Yes absolutely, that could be said.
I also like to turn things around and see how it plays from both angles.

NSWTG: As soon as [Lloyd] DA himself then the focus of his channel was himself and not the content ... he changed his direction [and] made it about himself.
Exactly!
For some people it's about the cause; for others the cause is a way to make it about them.
YMMV
i've been reading a lot about reincarnation these days and i'm beginning to think that it quite possibly might be true, it seems to fit in nicely with the idea that we live in a computer simulation.. anyway according to the tibetan book of the dead when we die we seem to hang around on the earth waiting for rebirth.
at which time we could be ghosts.

BBW: I would fuck big time with AM#3. I would tell him that Jehovah is very angry with him
You probably noticed that I lifted some of that dialogue straight from the Sparlock video using the ultra-manipulative words Caleb's whack-job mommy used on him.

Scratch: Isn't the idea of becoming ex-JWs freeing yourself from them, now, alive, wanting nothing to do with them, you know, getting a life instead of continuing wanting to know everything about them?
Exactly!
Which is precisely why we all spend so much time here on this forum!

What a waste of a good haunting!
But on second thought, ... maybe I’d show up just long enough to scare the crap out of a few of them ... just for laughs you know!
Especially that arrogant prick, Anthony Morris, the Turd. Wouldn’t it be nice to play a little “ghost of Christmas Past” on him?
CUE SPOOKY MUSIC:
”Anthony, ... Anthony ... I’ve seen the way you lust after those sweet, young Bethelites in their tight, tight pants!
"I've noticed how you gaze longingly at their brightly colored socks.
“You have made Jehovah very, very sad Anthony. Do you want Jehovah to be sad? We don’t want to make Jehovah sad with us, now do we Anthony? So what do you think you should do, Anthony?
"What should you do?
”Go. Now. Run to the elders and confess your sins and maybe, just maybe 'seasons of refreshing may come from the person of Jehovah' ... AFTER YOU’VE BEEN DISFELLOWSHIPPED, KICKED OUT OF THE ORG AND HUMILIATED LIKE THE FUCKING HYPOCRITE YOU ARE YOU MISERABLE PIECE OF SHIT!”
what splain does in his talk and chart illustration is make the leap that a generation can have two groups.
and in this case the two groups span more than 108 years.
but no where in scripture is there ever a notion that a generation has two groups.
LTPF: What Splain does in his talk and chart illustration is make the leap that a generation can have two groups.
Personally, I think Splane (or who ever is really in charge at the WTBTS) plagiarized that chart from this three year old thread:
Timeline:
Careful readers will notice the footnote in the above chart about conflicting dates for Fred Franz' baptism. This is a point in WT "theology," chronology and history that previously has not been discussed much, and curiously Splane also refers to this obscure point in his presentation.
Coincidence? Conspiracy theory?
Do the math!
i remember an elder questioning a woman who had admitted to giving and receiving oral sex from her unbelieving mate.
he asked her the most intimate questions which clearly flustered her.
interestingly, she “confessed “ to the elders because her conscience bothered her.
“Jehovah’s people are the thinkingest people on the planet!” - Anthony Morris III
Getting to Know You - ToMo III, part 11
Go to 2:54" for this quote.
get your data from the uk branch now, before gdpr kicks in on 25-may-2018.
use this free template letter, which has been tried and tested.
under uk law they can (and will) delay their reply if you miss out any of the important points in the template letter - for example they are allowed to ask for "costs" from you (£10 is an established fee in the data industry), or if you fail to prove your identity by means of passport or driver's license.
This religion just keeps getting weirder by the day. Any illusions of them "reforming" and becoming a "kinder, gentler, more moderate religion" are just that, illusions.
we urgently need to offer "resistance strategy" help to pimos who are likely to be harassed by elders seeking their consent for wtbt$ to leech their data.
what questions could pimos ask elders, that elders would be unable to answer?
(thus buying time, because elder would need to "check with branch").

Good luck with that!
Note this from the JW.org website regarding data collection and retention:
YOUR RIGHTS: The religious organization has an interest in permanently maintaining data regarding an individual’s status as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Deleting such information would unduly infringe on the organization’s religious beliefs and practices. - [Emphasis added]
Source: Global Policy Personal Data - Updated April 1, 2018
Isn’t it ironic—in an Orwellian sort of way—that the WTBTS’s stated policy that they can and probably will ignore written, legitimate requests to delete personal data is listed in a section of their policy entitled: “Your Rights”?
Let’s translate the doublespeak into plain English: when it comes to the WTBTS and “your rights,” you have none.
Let’s review: It’s a cult!
