  so after the 2 special pioneers visited i thought i had given them an earful about the arc and the pedophile problem in their organization surely they would have put me on the do not call list.. oh, no not my luck i get an elder and his lovely little mute wife with infant child in the stroller this morning at 9 am.

  don't these people have a job to go to?

  it was a car with 3 men & a woman.. we go through the standard do you read the bible yada yada, i tell them i know the routine very familiar with your game.

  So what exactly did Jackson lie about in his testimony? Watching hours and hours of those videos is not my idea of fun. Is there a TL:DR version somewhere?

  They are cranking up the dial on the crazy with this video. How can anyone watch this nonsense and not laugh at the ridiculousness of it all??

  The whole idea of faithful dubs hiding out in their basements as Armageddon breaks out is hard to swallow in the first place, just in print. Now they are making videos actually portraying this scenario?? Way to try to go more mainstream Watchtower!!

  I remember hoping Armageddon wouldn't come before Star Trek II, Star Trek III, Empire Strikes Back, etc. It sounds so stupid now. It's 2016, how can anyone still be a JW????

  i was contacted by my ex sister-in-law yesterday.

  she asked me if i wanted to spend some time with my niece, while she went to her sister's baby shower.

  it turns out my niece can't go because she's about to be disfellowshipped at the ripe old age of 14. .

  I would think this kind of situation could result in the Borg being liable in a civil lawsuit or even facing legal charges. I don't think a minor can enter a legal contract and consequently I don't see how they can be sanctioned for somehow not living up to that contract. And then there's the whole issue of the emotional, mental suffering this kind of policy inflicts on a young person. Heartless bastards.

  Well I spilled it to the elders (elder)

  by HowTheBibleWasCreated in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  an elder came over for a visit the other night (he couldn't get a partner) personally i consider him a friend and have revieiled many things to him an figured the tie has come to step out of this religion slowly.. well i finally told him i have no believe in the bible (other then the confirmed history in it) or god.

  i did it slowly and tactfully and even non-agressive.. his response to learning i believe in evolution was that evolution doesn't happen now i respectfully disagreed and pointed out lactose and alcohol tolerance among the last thousand years as well as tibetian lung/hearts.

  he refused to believe it.

  He doesn't believe in evolution because it's (supposedly) not happening anymore? And yet he probably has no problem with the stories of miracles in the Bible, even though they don't happen anymore either.

  Can I pick up a New World Translation from the JW London head office?

  by Camperdown9 in

  2. bible

  i'm an anglican and not a jehovahs witness.

  what i dislike about lots of church congregations is their readiness to make unpleasant and unhelpful comments about other christian groups.

  recently someone in a church tried to tell me a little about the views of jehovahs witnesses.

  You should spend a little more time learning about them by browsing here and other internet sites. If you contact them directly you will become a recruiting target.

  while attending a week long training class for elders in patterson, bro losch gave the concluding talk about loyalty to the borg, which i was in awe of(i went more in detail in a recent post about a s.a.d.

  where losch was the speaker).

  at the end of his talk, here's what he said: .

  Lösch has made comments like this before. He clearly doesn't approve of football.

  My understanding is that the UK (possibly the entire EU), has very strict data retention regulations. I think that's what these instructions are related to. And what's with Overly Dramatic Delivery Guy?

  Impressions of the Governing Body; who's smart, who ain't?

  by Room 215 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  based on what we've seen, it seems to me that of the seven, splane and jackson are the smartest; herd, lett and morris the least intelligent; and sanderson and losch somewhere in the middle.

  .

  what's your impression?.

  I thought I had heard Lett came from a very wealthy JW family, which might have something to do with his being invited to be on the GB.
