Hi Thetrueone,

The talk is REAL, the video to go along with it was made to go WITH the talk. That was a real talk by Ciro A in 2007. His talks always seem to "spill his mental illness" but JWs attending his talks just don't see anything wrong with it!

Here is another talk by him back in 2001, so you can here his voice (no video though).

I find BOTH talks very disturbing. Anyone can tell he is mentally ill. WHY the Watchtower allows him to share such sick garbage is beyond me. I can only imagine the nightmares people AND children have suffered from listening to such sick filth.

peace,

Hi all!,

For those who haven't seen the video yet on youtube of Ciro's ( a Bethel speaker?) sick talk given in, I believe, 2007, I provide the link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwA9KX5WJTM

Right at the end of the talk he says, :

"The Tribulation is almost upon us. It is not a time, friend, to think that because the society published a change in generation that Jehovah God, the great Theocrat, took his clock and moved it back, because some ants printed a Watchtower down there. Oh please, friends! We should not have been dealing with generation in the first place. It's none of our business. Did you ever see the apostles talk about generation? Didn't they have opportunity there? Not once did they mention generation, did they? Then we have no business doing it."

The latest change of the generation brings me to believe that the ants who print the Watchtower just don't get it!

peace,

Was There Anything You Liked About Being A Jehovah's Witness???

by minimus in

jw
friends

anything at all???

?.

somebody

Yes! I got to see zev/harold 3 times a week!

And I can honestly say that is the ONLY thing I liked about being a JW.

I hated going to the meetings otherwise and I really hated having to wear nylons ( which made my legs and thighs itch to high hell) and those stupid wrap-around skirts!

peace,

Yet one more thread on the new "generation".... Oh, Joy!

by undercover in

i know, i know... some of ya'll are gettin' sick of this "generation" thing... .

but for whatever reason, i had not seen this actual quote from the dc talk (that or had not paid much attention to it until now).

seeing it in print really brought home how desparate they are to try to hang on to 1914 in whatever way they can.

Just the "two groups of anointed" gets me going!

How many "groups" and how many "separate and distinct classes"will there be among JWs in years to come? And how many times will JWs continue to say that have no class distictions in their "group" ? One JW I know claimed that JWs believe in the ONE HOPE spoken about in the Bible, and corrected herself only AFTER I showed that the WT does ,and has for YEARS, taught that there are TWO HOPES?

Now it seems that the WT may refer to "two groups" whenever they speak about the "faithful and discreet slave class".

I can hear it now. One will be the "modern day faithful and discreet slave class of our day"!

Happy you brought up the "generation" again!

DO you follow any of these quacks, charlatans, liars, mystics or self-promoters?

by Terry in

jw
friends

don't try to lie about it.

you accept some of these people as an authority.

you listen to them.

Hi Terry,

I never knew that mind over matter was considered to be "supernatural nonsense" to anyone.

I ,personaly , am not a follower of any of the above mentioned people.

I'll have to search what mind over matter REALLY is. Maybe it's not what I thought it was.

Still learning something new everyday!

Thank you for your post!

Hi faundy!

I have been away from the board for too long ( about 6 years or so it seems) and I made a "HOWDY" post earlier today too. I only learned THIS MORNING about your dad, and I cried and cried that I wasn't here 18 months ago! I'm SO sorry for your loss. Right away, I started reading his "torn apart" post and I'm only on page 2 of it, so I wasn't even sure if his daughters ever got out of the Watchtower. I was PRAYING that you did before he passed on. And I pray that your sister is out too.

((((((((((faundy)))))) and hugs to your family too.

If I were you, I would buy the book titled Ghost Among Us. It is NOT a scary or morbid book. I found it to be of much comfort. You can search it on the net and read reviews if you wish before you buy or order it. It may be the comfort you need ! The auther is James Van Praagh.

I'm SO glad I popped in today to see your post and read it. For now I know who you are! Is that strange or what? !!!

tons of new people!

Hi jourey-on,

I haven't posted reguarly since about I duuno....6 or 7 years maybe? I thought about the board last week ( because a certain person crossed my mind at the time) and this past Sunday I came to the board and actually read older posts ALL DAY LONG into the night. I had both tears and smiles reading posts.

So today I came back and decided that I may participate again. It's changed SO much though. It's busy busy busy! I registered her a few months after Simon left what we called witnet ( which was for JWs only, but anyone could read the posts) and opened his own discussion board. That was years ago!

It's amazing how many new ones are here, and how many are still here from years ago. I'm glad the board didn't close!

peace,

Did You Know Any Jehovah's Witnesses That "Did" Drugs?

by minimus in

jw
friends

my teenage daughter suggested to me that certain kids in well connected families were regular pot smokers.

it was always hush hush because of their connections but evidently it was common knowledge within the "in" crowd.. i knew some adults that were on prescription pills but they had legitimate excuses for being "happy".

of course, most jws i know of, medicate themselves on booze..

somebody

Hi minimus!

We had teens ( three that I knew of) who both smoked weed and drank, but I don't know about any adults. We teens avoided the adults as much as we could. And the teens who were thought to tell on us( I was in with the "in" crowd for a few months), just werent invited to "hang out" with us. I never smoked weed ( did cigarettes though) back then but I did drink. I never ratted on anyone who I knew was toking, nor drinking. The teens who were in the "out" crowd may have been doing the same things that the "in" crowd were doing for all anyone knows!

peace,
