I concur with everything you said R&R , and may I add, all of their wasted lives slaving for a man made American Publishing and Real Estate Corporation posing as a Religion fleecing the flock of all of their money and valuable assets by dangling the carrot of Armageddon and Paradise before their eyes ,which is always just out of reach .

My message to those who have always placed heavy burdens on its members
by RULES & REGULATIONS inin this kingdom hall photo, there will be some members who will probably leave the organization.
some will stay and suffer just to be with family.
i feel sad for those who stay just to please the family.

RIP Penny ,
She may have come across as a bit of a Bimbo in L& S ,however she must have had a head on her shoulders to become a successful director worth about 45Million dollars at the time of her death.
My wife was a fan of their show as a bit of escapism from JWISM

It must have been when i was winding down from from the religion at a four day Convention because on this Saturday Arvo was an AFL grand final and I snuck off to the local pub to watch it and came back after it finished .
For some reason in OZ many Conventions clashed with an AFL grand final.
This is going back 30 or 40 years ago now.
In those days many attendants had radios stuck to their ears listening to the footy scores during the Convention.
as they were walking around the grounds during security watch.

Coming out of the Woodwork
by Solzhenitsyn inwho was i to think that we would be left alone?
it has been a dream for 2+ months.
a few calls i let go to voicemail but now the wife and i are getting bombarded with text messages.. this isn't going to be easy.. since we're not looking to throw a grenade into decades of relationships, text replies thus far have been..."thank you so much.".

As has been said many times before , the only power they have over you is the power you let them have .
You are the power of your own destiny not them
You have control over the rest of your life not them

Jehovah's Witnesses and the Great Crowd
by Meshech inas jesus christ was preparing to go to his death, he encouraged his disciples with these words:.
"in my father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, i would have told you.
i go to prepare a place for you.

And if Jehovah and Jesus don`t even exist at all its all very meaningless .
Its puzzling to me why intelligent human beings in this day and age debate interpretations and meanings of writings of thousands of years ago who had no knowledge of the information that is at the fingertips of anybody who has a PC today.
If Jehovah ,Yahweh ,Jesus or any other God is going to destroy 8 Billion people simply because they can`t decipher correctly what was written down in an ancient language of thousands of years ago ,
Then I say stuff em ,their not worthy of my worship ,and they certainly don`t love humankind.

The Apprentice - Watchtower version
by catchthis inbeing a fan of the tv show the apprentice, i love to "play along" to see if my ideas would work with what the teams are tasked to accomplish.
many times, their ideas are totally off.
other times, the executives they are tasked with providing a presentation to feel that they had 'hit a home run.

Xmas, love it or leave it??
by DATA-DOG ini have to say that i’m not enjoying the xmas season.
i have no emotional ties and i’m spending money that i have not set aside for xmas during a slow work season for my trade.. i’m not happy about it, because it’s foolish to spend money when you aren’t making any.
then i feel like i’m expected to do all this, and to be happy about spending money and time on persons that i’m not that involved with.

Most people I know that celebrate Xmas are not religious at all and its a good excuse to enjoy a good meal and booze with family and friends and as adults no one is fussed about presents ,that`s for the kids.
