  Littlerockguy I think this one is even more telling. Has a good ending so you'll never see that here.

  I can't wait to hear about this exciting video about Hezekiah! I've always wanted to hear that [fairy] tale in video format.

  More wonderful news! So many recently have been coming out of the woodwork so to speak and it shows that people are waking up to the facts.

  Facts can be dangerous. The internet is allowing people to discover the truth about the truth TTATT as other calls it.

  PS I was going to start a new thread about this but last night I was officially disfellowshipped or so they told me. Of course I did not attend nor do I care! It feels like a great burden has been lifted off my shoulders. My husband and I celebrated and since awakening, our relationship has never been better.

  GrreatTeacher you might be surprised. I know I'm going to get attacked for saying this but my hubby is a NRA member and I support gun rights in the USA. I believe the 2nd protects the 1st. With that said, I openly support drug legalization, the right to pro choice abortion so long as it is not government funded, and gay rights. And I believe in dismantling the school to prison industrial complex that funds for profit prisons. I posted my beliefs before but I'm sure it has gone unnoticed here in the barrage of junk.

  What is the motivation behind the JW org?

  by Half banana in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the gb has recently said that the brothers are generously contributing lots of money (at gunpoint it seems!

  ) so why with a billion dollar annual income do they demand more cash?

  they have staunched the outward flow of money on paid preachers, zone overseers and bethel expenses and stalled the promised worldwide luxury buildings projects..

  Nobody said it better than L Ron Hubbard but I'm sure CT Russell said it first.

  That's a good question. When you are on the inside, it seems like they are for Jehovah. Their actions tell otherwise.

  I'd love to see their 501c3 status removed. They do zero charity work. During Hurricane Katrina in 2004, the society sent their equipment to build their money making machines also known as Kingdom Halls. The leftover time they had they helped some brothers and sisters in need. Seems nice, right? Well before they began to do any reconstruction work, they told them to apply for their homeowners insurance first and then give the check to them. They loved to make photo ops for the local newspapers when they saw fit. Other brothers and sister were assisted by the local congregation money only. Which means all that donating didn't do anything.
  

  If someone like Cedars, Paul or even Simon from this site would organize a rally and movement to that end, my husband and I would donate a hefty sum for that cause to get the word out.

  d---head comment ...by someone called jay witness on that forum-.

  what a smug bunch of pharisees they breed !

  """it makes me feel odd to invite tons of worldly people who are obviously fornicators and idolaters and then not be able to even show a little love such as a "hello" to a disfellowshipped brother or sister.

  "Secret locations only"

  I agree. All JW's should meet in Kim Jong-un's secret underground bunker and stay there. Forever. Amen.

  Sorry to hear this but this is a common occurrence in the JW world. I know of a poor JW family who tried the same thing to their "worldly" part of the family. Rarely had contact with them because we all know worldly people including your own family are bad association. Well then they needed some money and suddenly the worldly family were their bank. In the end the evil worldly family gave them some money for their situation and told them to keep it but to please unite the family instead of destroy it.

  Chelmsford is an Asbestos Dump

  by Slidin Fast in

  2. scandals

  the dubsters in the uk are being taken for such a ride.. on one side they have prime land and property to sell in north london worth many millions of uk pounds.. on the other they have bought a contaminated site used for years of illegal dumping.

  one of the main contaminants is asbestos.

  it will take volunteer labour months simply to remove the toxic material.

  While I would love to send this to my niece, I would like to confirm that this is indeed real before making a fool of myself. The poster 'Kramer' said it was not. Do we have any proof that this is indeed happening?
