  Have you seen a UFO/UAP?

  by BoogerMan in

  the acronym uap once stood for "unidentified aerial phenomena," until december 2022. .

  then the pentagon updated its terminology to encompass "submerged and trans-medium objects.".

  I think a large part of the growth is refugees and immigration. Of the 40 years my parents preached here, only one person they brought to baptism was Irish, the rest usually from the UK.

  WT needs your kids uneducated: CO training video is Master Class in F.O.G. This is jaw-droppingly stupid. Beyond moronic, it's sub-moronic.

  co training video: link to ex-jw reddit thread discussion.

  today is the first time i was made aware of this actual elder body video.

  it's training for how a co should handle elder's whose children decide to pursue further education.

  They try to deny their members their god given right to exercise their own free will. In their recent delayed WT they even state that they're allowing people to use their own conscience! They don't have the authority to allow or disallow anyone to use their god given conscience. Even human courts recognise that human right!

  "A Jehovah's Witness"

  by NotFormer in

  2. beliefs

  a very certain distinctive of jws is how they refer to themselves.

  "one of jehovah's witnesses".

  it's one of those coded jargon thingies.

  We arent witnesses of anyone because in the 21st century we haven't witnessed anything, we can't claim to be witnesses of Jesus because we weren't there when he walked the earth, nor were we there when the Apostles performed miracles by holy spirit. All we have at best is hearsay 🤷

  There aren't that many Irish witnesses, must of us are 'blow ins' as the local term goes, brought in by parents and grandparents to 'serve where the need is greater' back in the 80s and 90s.

  Ireland has been one of the JWs least successful countries for converts, by their own admission.

  Too many rules and regulations, Irish people don't like those 😁

  I feel a sense of foreboding about this Olympics, anyone reckon it might be used as a target to drag the entire world into WWIII?

  So What Religion do You Claim to be when Entering Hospital?

  by mikronboy in

  2. medical

  i've had a few medical procedures.

  once, i had a massive loss of blood and needed 6 units of blood to replace the loss.

  however, i'm curious as to what ex's state to be their religion when filling out the required paperwork when being admitted into a hospital.

  I just say Christian, that seems to stop any other questions, if they ask more I'd just say non denominational.

  Sadly, judging by a recent conversation with my parents, dad is an elder, their 'bible-trained' (actually WT trained) conscience is totally clear when it comes to keeping 'the cong clean'.

  They don't think that men accused of CSA by a victim should be prosecuted at all in the absence of any witnesses, the loss of his reputation and so on and what if she made it all up, like what happened in two supposed cases ( not JW related), and his family life and reputation were destroyed only for her to recant ten years later.

  My argument, so 1000s of child victims shouldn't get any justice just in case one or two of them were lying? Fell on deaf ears, because their conscience allows for the suffering of widows and children. WT trained, not Bible, and certainly not Jesus trained.

  i was recently in the company of a jw.

  this is a long time devout jw and i served them a meal.

  i was surprised by their reaction, they simply sat down, grabbed a fork and began shoveling???

  My kids have to sit through meal time prayers at the grandparents house when they visit, they tel me it's always the same prayer.

  So much for not repeating the same thing over and over like the nations do.
