You can't get DF for associating with another DF person, just any privileges you have are removed.
Don't believe that is true. Didn't Ray Franz get DF for associating with a DA person who also was his employer at the time?

here's john oliver's take on how easy it is for religions to fleece vulnerable people in the us.
i had a few good laughs, but it's seriously disturbing at the same time.
read the article, but don't miss the video, it's hilarious.. john oliver sets up his new church.
John Oliver has a spiritual message for you,.... call this number now!

okay, i know the royal commission hasn't started yet.
but i'm confident enough that he will be telling some whoppers.
so i thought i'd be the first to get a thread started for something that will begin... very soon now!.
Jackson said the Governing Body were the ""Guardians of Doctrine". GOD
just saw the episode of the simpsons where bart calls moe's tavern and asks for "amanda huggenkiss" and it made me laugh again .
amanda huggenkiss.
hugh jazz.
life has been busy, but i am now on 2 weeks vacation which allowed me some thinking room.
and here's what's been on my mind.. we're all going to die.
no matter what we do, our fate is sealed.
I have come to accept that I will die just as all before me. No one has ever cheated death.
What I find more sobering is the fact that 200 years from now, likely not a single person living on this planet will know that I ever existed, yet people will still be talking about assholes like Rutherford.
i ask because my gf, who knows all about my jw upbringing, convinced me to grow a goatee, just to see how it looks.
we both decided it looked good so i decided to keep it.
i tried to explain to her that as a jw, i wasn't allowed to grow one, but then drew a blank when she asked me why.
We had black brothers who had shaved heads and nothing was said.
As soon as a white brother decided to shave his head then there was some kind of problem.
I suppose they associated it with the skin head movement.
there is an unfulfilled prophecy in daniel about the last king that will be broken without human hand.
the prophecy says he will be fierce-looking, deceptive, efficent in his doings, smart and causing ruin to many.
and he will exalt himself.
yes or no.......what say you?.
i'll start - no!.

Love this headline:

I grew a goatee while still an active JW. Many in the congregation said it looked good on me and didn't understand why they didn't allow it. Since I was not a MS or Elder, there was nothing said to me about it. I was in a liberal congregation.
What I did notice was they would only schedule TM talks in the 3rd school down in the basement and when I tired to make arrangements to go out door to door with elders they would not show and make some arrangement ahead of time for me to work with someone else but never bothered to tell me in advance.
Rutherford who sold encyclopedias door to door as a young man took the same model for creating his JW sales force to peddle his WT propaganda understood the image of first impression. Russel obviously had no issues with the beard.
i haven't seen a topic thread like this one, so i thought i might start one.
as the title suggests, this is a topic thread for anyone's questions that have quick or one line answers.
for example: how many meetings do the witnesses have per week?
Explain CTR in a few words............
Charlatan!
Is that few enough words?
