  A Few Good Men:

  
  

  "YOU want the truth? You can't handle the truth!"

  The truth is you've been quoting A Few Good Men wrong for years.

  Jack Nicholson actually says "You want answers?" Then Tom Cruise says "I think I'm entitled to them!" Nicholson asks again "You want answers?" To which Cruise replies "I want the truth!"

  It is only then that Nicholson serves up the famous line: "You can't handle the truth!"

  If that 607BCE date can be proven wrong, down goes their central Last Days doctrine based on beginning on 1914.

  Really? You don't think the fact that Armageddon hasn't come isn't enough? Or the fact that there's been six different teachings on the meaning of the word "generation"?

  The results of this Pew Survey only highlight what we already know about JW culture in regards to LGBTIQA people and anyone that supports them.

  A couple of months ago, Wizzstick started a thread in response to the CO's outline for the current meetings with the bodies of elders. The concluding part of that outline had the controversial section: Concerns Regarding Conduct, Dress and Grooming.
  

  That part of the outline focused on more than just dress and grooming, specifically addressing "effeminate traits … in one's bearing, body language and manner of speech" referring to such as "gender-blurring characteristics."
  
  This directive from the WT leadership is only superficially dealing with outward appearances. It is indeed an attack on the behaviors and ultimately the identity of individuals who may or may not be gay, but are perceived to be by intrusive, overzealous elders who have now been given permission to go on a crusade against anyone that dresses, acts or talks in a way they don't like.

  Very disturbing indeed!

  Let's review: It's a cult!

  hi, for over a year, i stopped attending meeting and field service.

  actually, passively disassociated from the congregation.

  but i did not stop reading and doing my own research.

  I have worked in the same school district for nearly a decade. When I started working there I was still an elder (this was at the end of my waking up to TTATT period).

  Now, nearly six years since my leaving the religion, several people--none of whom know about my JW past--have commented on how much nicer, more relaxed and easy going I am.

  Go figure.

  By their fruits you will recognize them: It's a cult!
