Would you as person in a terrorist siege denounce Christianity ( even if you were not Christian ) and pledge an oath to Allah so save your arse from a bullet to the back of your head ?

What makes you think that terrorist means non-Christian?

jw conversations

by zeb in

friends

i have mentioned i have bi-polar.

as part of my strategy against this is to endeavour to be positive and around positive people as much as i can.

that is avoid negative conversations and negative people.

Thank you for sharing, zeb. I'll stay away from you as I tend to be very negative. I care, though.

2017 Convention Video To Be Shown Regarding The 1975 Failure

by pale.emperor in

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=go3arnnsfkk&feature=youtu.be.

no mention whatsoever that it was watchtower themselves that strongly hinted towards this date.

instead they blame those who "put their trust in a date, not jehovah".. let's recap... .

Ok, I personally don't need further proof of how full of --it and how much those idiots at the WT's GB have no spine to admit that they made a mistake. To me it's well established that they will always attempt at looking good that way (personally I'd have more respect for them if they admit to being wrong, but that's just me).

So I'm not surprised that they keep coming up with whatever contrived crap they can think of to explain away their stupidity as they blame their victims for them.

I feel so bad for those who are still brainwashed by them and want to stick with them for the wrong reasons. Sadly, that's good enough for many who still want to look for any reason to stay with them. Old formula that never fails and keep their people at bay.

Disgusting.

Life DOES go on after leaving the witnesses

by DLou278 in

here is a video a made in regards to how life can continue after leaving!

would love some feedback!

As the one commenter (so fare) said in YouTube, you have your life ahead, and yes, move on. I left when I was still a young man, at 23, and I took life as a blank canvas where I could paint anything I wanted to. Choose the right paint for your life.

Wonderful video.

Headed to vegas! Anything i should do?

the tittle is self explanitory.... first trip to vegas, anything i should do besides gamble?.

scratchme1010

Take a trip to the Hoover Dam and/or the Grand Canyon. Vegas alone can get on your nerves, especially if you're not a heavy gambler.

Look for a show, there are shows for all budgets and tastes.

If you like shopping, that's the place to be.

The Excalibur Hotel has a Renaissance show and family friendly arcades and similar things as well as entertainment for adults.

Hotels provide good spas with amenities, such as therapeutic, professional massages.

And of course, if you find family friendly entertainment boring, there are reasons why they call it Sin City. Check the listings.

Just walking around the strip is fun too.

Marrying yourself is now a thing....

by James Mixon in

ok i'am old so i need some help to understand this new thing, what's the point in marrying yourself?

this sound like a gb brain storm idea....i guess you can never commit adultery....

scratchme1010

I was thinking the GB may feel this is a good idea, remember they have encouraged the RF to put off having children, so this arrangement will fit right into their scheme. But the only problem if a sister become pregnant and she tell the brothers, it was a miraculous birth just like Jesus...A dilemma for the bro's, is she crazy or she had a sleep over with a horny archangel....

You know, I may be with you on this one. Thinking on gay JWs who don't want to marry anyone of their opposite sex, this may be their perfect solution.

what is the craziest book the dubbers ever published?

by dogon in

so i was wondering what book is the nuttiest they ever printed?

i know there are several in contention for first place but which is your vote for no 1?

also if you don't mind post a bit of what is in the book you pick to show why you picked it.

scratchme1010

I can't remember the name of this one book that was published in the late 80s or early 90s. I was on my way out and didn't pay much attention to it, but I swear I heard that the book talk about populating other planets.

Of all the creepy nonsense that they publish, I think that thing was what made me think of the concept of "drinking the Kool Aid".

Does anyone know what book I'm referring to?

I'd vote for that one.
