what if a television press conferance was being held and the man in charge said that god had given them the truth and the way to everlasting live,and that they have millions of members,he would go on totell explain their core doctrines,which would be exactly the same as jehovahs witness'es.But they have named themselves Jehovahs Proclaimers.What would be the wt response,would they denounce a religion with the same beliefs as them self?

How to act crazy enough not to have to go in FS or to meetings but not crazy enough to get committed to a mental health facility
by hoser ini was thinking if i acted a little off but not too far off the elders would tell me i'm not welcome in the door to door work.
i wonder if this would work.
there is a watchtower or awake article somewhere saying that a mentally ill person may be excused from the meetings and field service if his illness affected others.

a co told us you can be a little crazy and be an elder,and another co told us you can be retarded and be a ms(this actually makes more sense to me now lol),so it might be tough to pull off.

A QUESTION NOBODY EVER ASKS....
by Terry inwhat is the difference between working a math problem and, say...playing a piano piece?.
the math problem has a correct answer.
getting close to the correct answer is simply called being wrong.. music, on the other hand, can have a wide range of expression not easily judged to be "wrong".

if your're a loving father with two children and you send them to do a specific chore,both children are unique and different human beings,they handle the chore differently,when they come back the father prefers on method of carrying out the chore more so than the other so he embraces the one and bannishs the other child,pretty harsh huh? But isnt this the way wtwr views god,and any not of their number who sincerely worship god?

it was always talked about how jehovah is a happy god,so is it logical to say that this happy god prohibits anything that makes his creation happy?He gave us the ability to love animals,the ability to create things(ipads,video games,ect...)that make us happy.

Former Long Time Elder - Judicial Committees
by James Jackson inwhen i first was appointed as an elder, i could not wait to be on a judicial committee.
it semed like most hearings invovled middle age men and women cheating on their mates because either they had married early or felt that were being neglected by their mate.
most times i felt i need to take a long hot shower after a hearing.. the toughest part was seeing these sweet young children grow up in "the truth", and now you are about to judge their future based on their repentance.

i was on many jcs but i was usually the one willing to extend mercy,not the one wanting salacious details(like did you orgasm and did you enjoy the sex) and there were ones who acted like police interigators on law and order,when my jc came along i got the law and order version red faces loud voices and pointing fingers,when i was dissmissed so tney could make their "decision" i could hear boistrous laughter from the room,there are some truly evil people in that orginization,who relish the suffering of the rank and file.Many who lord their perceived power over the r&f,and seek followers of themselves,i also know there are many who have seen these things but choose to look the other way so as not lose their friends and family,but sadly eventually the wolves come for you and theres no voice of reason for your benifit.I appologize for the rambling and spelling,but the wound is fresh and the feelings just come pouring out

Slowly Awakening at the DC 2013
by breakfast of champions inso after the district convention was over, i asked my wife what her overall impression was.
she said, "maybe something has changed, or maybe it's your influence that i see things differently now, but a lot of those talks sounded more threatening than anything.
not loving, not really hopeful, just threatening.
