I can see the words "Why me? And why Frosty?" being the cry of a whole generation of victims of Cowardly Christmas Crimes.

No doubt..but even a good lecture wouldn't help these bozos!! They are not the brightests tools in the shed! They come from the "webbed feet clan!!"
Hmmm, I had a feeling...
I know it's cold comfort (pun unintentional), but you are not the first to experience this chilling, cold-hearted (again, no pun intended) crime wave. No one with a Frosty is safe!
In Ohio's Hamilton County, a pair of 18-year-olds were arrested for using screwdrivers to stab an inflatable 12-foot-tall Frosty the Snowman. "Why me?" asked Frosty's owner, Matt Williquette. "And why Frosty?"
The snowman had survived two previous stabbing attacks.

Actually, I'm LMAO. You need to lecture these guys on pganism - in their zeal to cast down the idols of pagan Christendom, they seem to have gotten hopelessy confused. Now Santa, I get. But Frosty?? LOL
1- "jehovah does not want us to be rich".
other religions teach that god helps us to become prosperous.
jehovah does not do that.
If you had more money than sense, you could do a little experiment regarding these "defecits":
On day one, when they announce the defecit, say $3000, go and drop $3000 in the donation box. You now know that there is no defecit. Now, listen to the announcements over the rest of the weekend, and if there's any more talk of a defecit, you know they's lyin'!
as many of you know by now - i do not tolerate 'shunners'.
i have done no evil, killed no one, never raped or pillaged any witnesses.
i do not tolerate small-minded witnesses who called me 'brother' for most of 40 years, now acting as if i am no better than sh*t on the bottom of their shoes.
Hmmm, I wonder if there'll be special needs talks or even Watchtower articles on the subject, if enough of this stuff happens. Then SlimBoy will claim that the WBTS never monitors this site, as he skips blissfully down the YellowBrick Road. LOL

I like the way you are making visible the unacceptable rudeness of JW shunning. No one is asking them to "fraternize" or socialize with ex-JWs, but civility and basic good manners cost nothing. I suspect that, if the employer does take him to task for his behavior, it will simply increase his own perception that it is he who is being persecuted, not you. However, you have drawn attention to the rudeness evident in a lot of shunning and I applaud that.
This is a good point. Perhaps a follow up letter to the BOE would be useful. Let them know that you are being pro-active; that you are bringing attention to any shunning you receive to those outside the loop, who may unknowingly be affected. And let them know that, while in the insular world of the Kingdom Hall, shunning is seen as a necessary evil, even a good thing, outside of their walls it is perceived as rude, hateful and detrimental. And that any feelings of persecution felt by the shunners at being taken to task for treating paying customers as dirt is due to the fact that such behaviour is seen by the outside world as appalling, unacceptable, and ultimately WORTHY of persecution. IOW, your persecution is not because you have "the Truth" or that you are JWs, it is because you are BEHAVING like total d___heads!

"how to protect your identity and your assets" by j.j. luna.. .
although they call their church buildings "kingdom halls" we look them .
Using a JW to "protect your assets" in the realm of information rings rather hollow, given the familiarity we have with that 1987 article in the Watchtower, featuring "Mary", the medical receptionist.

Can anyone explain this game to me?
Here's a simple explanation:
Cricket - As explained to a foreigner
You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out.
When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game.

my sister and i, are my mothers only two children.
we were both witnesses at one point, i left ten year ago and my sister left in 2005. my mother remains as the only witness left in my immediate family.
while my sister and i make good money, with our careers and duel income in marriage, we don't talk about it much.
Considering that when you lift the veil on their meaning of "spiritual things", it all turns out to be totally material, I'm not surprised. Being "spiritual" in the 'Tower means counting hours, counting pieces of literature, counting money, counting bums on seats. Even prayer is formulaic and not done like an answer is hoped for or expected. So to disfellowship people for acting in the way the WBTS has trained them, would be rather illogical. Plus rich materialists always give money to the 'Tower in exchange for bragging rights. Consult their article on Simony from the 90s.
everytime you talk about the trinity to born-again christians and bring up the verse where it says of the day and hour only the father knows they will immediately say jesus was in his "human nature" that is why he does not know.
but my question is why don't the holy spirit know the day and hour?
is the holy spirit in human nature as well?
