i know jw.net doesn't have any control of the ads we see when we visit on here, but i gotta say i'm fed up with the progressive sales lady popping up everywhere on here.
ugggh!!
it's not that i don't like her, i actually thought the commercials on tv were cute at first and she's almost hot in a milf kind of way.
Titus:
You've not been an X-JW very long, have you? I mean, you're just oozing with the same loving attitude that JW's have. Who would pass down an eternity in Paradise filled with people of your same attitude? Haha!!!!
Undercover:
So that's how YOU get away with it, huh? Nice.

It's not that I don't like her, I actually thought the commercials on TV were cute at first and she's almost hot in a MILF kind of way. But now she's just plain annoying and I can't stand her. Enough already, Progressive!! I have Nationwide for my car and homeowners insurance, and I'm NOT going to change!! So just pack up the fake (almost eerily JW) happy demeanor and get out already; take the Geiko Ghecko with you, um-k?

PS: I don't want to meet any singles in my area either.
ok i was debating on doing this post but here it goes.
i have not put down my whole story on this board but enough for everyone to know that my problem with the "truth" is sex offenders.. i have fought and fought the elders and they win.
they will allow child molesters and i cannot stop that.
Wow....just wow. I am sorry you had to learn about the Org "the hard way" but this is usually what wakes people up the fastest.
As for that sexual criminal following you around, I would arm myself - literally. Go to a local gun store and pick out a Taurus Ultra-light .38 special. This is a small, lightweight revolver that is simple to use and safe with training. Purchase it, and then go and take firearms classes in order to properly handly and fire this pistol. Then, head on down the county courthouse and obatin a permit to carry a concealed weapon, and then carry your new .38 special with you in your purse.
Next time said JW pervert is stalking you, make sure you draw him in real close, and then pull that steel on him. Chances are he'll get the hint and get the hell away from you - permenantly.
Or, if you don't want to do all of that, just have your husband kick the living shit out of him - IF he has the balls to do so. That's what I'd do if someone did that to MY wife. They'd be beaten to within an inch of their life and be living off of a tube for a month.

i'd like to share a scripture with you householder, if you have a copy of the bible perhaps you can follow along in yours, by the way, did you know that the bible is the best selling book of all time ... over 6 billion copies.
how fortunate it is for you that i am here today, because something you probably didn't now is that only the governing body of jehovah's witnesses can properly understand the bible?
(sometimes just two-thirds of them).
^^^ Mary:
That looks like a partial snipit from somewhere, or did you just come up with it? I'd LOVE to see the rest of it???
Here is one that I post from time to time that I just love, and always gives me a chuckle.......
"Greetings, I'm a member of the great crowd of other sheep rendering sacred service to the Ancient of Days in the earthly courtyard of the spiritual temple by following the example of the fine shepherd and engaging as a regular pioneer in preaching the good news of the kingdom with the sword of the spirit.
We are helping to warn those not familiar with the Divine Name that the second presence of the Chief Agent of Life has begun, and soon the last days will reach their culmination when the scarlet-colored wild beast will turn on the harlot and destroy Babylon the Great, beginning the great tribulation which is climaxed by Armageddon and the ruler of the world, now in Tartarus, being thrown into the abyss for the rest of the last Adam's millennial reign.
However, antitypical apostate Jerusalem with her man of lawlessness class is supporting the false prophet and fighting against the anointed remnant of spiritual Israel, the ambassadors of heavenly Jerusalem, and their envoys, who are keeping themselves without spot from the world and who would rather go to Sheol or Hades than Gehenna by rejecting the theocracy proclaimed by the Faithful & Discreet Slave and the Governing Body of the spiritual paradise on earth today.
So, if you don't want to take these magazines, here's a program schedule for the Kingdom Hall, where you can come and learn more about New Jerusalem, new heavens, new earth, new commandment, new birth, new song, new creation, new personality, and the new covenant which we can only benefit from by being associated with the 144,000 anointed Governing Body.
Thank you for your time...which is not to be confused with a time and times and half a time."
bethel bought a theatre in queens as an assembly hall which had an egyptian motiff decoration with god's and goddesses.
a sister visiting for a gilead graduation told brother franz she was stumbled.
president knorr responded by saying: "they are simply decorations..." the bossert hotel was also bought which has gargoyles {demons} on every corner.
Ah-ha!!!! I just KNEW there was a WatchTower article to back up the "no wind chimes" stand. See, w81 6/1 p. 31 Questions From Readers.
If you read the logic above from the QFR article, you could say that about ANYTHING, that being, if you had something it could STUMBLE someone. By this same line of reasoning, I could argue that the weirdo, vampiric Elder family that lives diagonal from me are causing me to be stumbled because they drive nothing but Mazda's, and MAZDA was the God of Wisdom in Japan. Hence, a "true Christian" would want nothing to do with driving a car that is named after a pagan god!!! See? Anyone can use that argument to put down damn near ANYTHING, even wedding rings, days of the month, month names, clothing, make-up, etc, etc. Total BS!!!!
Wind chimes are harmless musical fun. It is only coincidence and superstitition that people said they used them to ward of demons. The fact that the WT is citing some old superstition as a reason not to have one goes to show just how superstitious and rediculous they truly are.
Shit, I'm going out and buying a huge ass wind chime tonight and hanging it out front, just for spite!! Maybe I'll get "fortunate" and it'll ward off the JW's from knocking on my door in the future?

hi.
can someone who has attended the dc tell me what the new understanding of the generation is and how they explain it with help from the bible?.
newborn.
^^^^^^ OMG, that is some really contrived BULLSH*T right there!! I love how they quote previous WT articles with made-up Generation definitions in order to "prove" this "new understanding", without any REAL bible-backing whatsoever. I understand about Joseph too, but really, that whole generation was still probably only what, 100 years max????? We are already at that point, or damn near it in 2014.
Speaking of the Bible, wasn't it Jesus who said somewhere in the BIBLE (And I'm paraphrasing here) that, "Beware of false prophets who will come after me and claim that they are me, or that I have come but am in an a hidden (secret?) place, for they are wolves in sheeps clothing." Also, didn't he say that too that, "Every eye will see the Coming of the Son of Man?" Sorry, but this whole "invisible" parousia thing never made sense to me. Why would Jesus come invisibly? Just to confuse everyone? Same with the 1918 Judgement of religions, do tell, how does one PROVE that?? You can't, it's completely fabricated BS!!!!!

I'll make it real simple. No longer will the "Generation of 1914 not pass away before The End comes." No, no, that's Old Light.
New Light = Any Generation that overlaps the Generation of 1914 or their contemporaries will not pass away before The End comes.
Just like the Olympic or AUDI rings, generations of annointted will keep overlapping until finally The End comes. The PROMISED (WT, May 1984) Generation of 1914 timeline has been BROKEN, and it can now continue on indefinitely according to this new WT created prophetic drivel.
What was held up as PROOF of The Time of The End during the 1980's out in field service, is now "Old Light".

one of the things i really like about being out of the cult is that i no longer have to go to those long, boring district conventions.
instead, i can do other things with my new family (fiancee and soon to be step son).
we were out and about sunday, i had taken the day off from work, no point in bothering people with collections on a sunday and a holiday.. we had planned to go to a suburb of st. louis, mo (st. charles) and see some of the vendors on the riverfront in the afternoon and then wait for the fireworks in the evening .
I always thought it made them look like some adult special needs patient.
It's like, "Duh.....my name is Brother DoucheBag and I think I look good in my cheap JC Penny suit and mismatched KMart shoes. I think I'll leave a tract instead of a tip. Duuuuh."
My last DC was 1997. My last CA was about 1999, 2000. I NEVER wore a nametag, nor would I. It smacks of control and semi-retardedness.

yes i've just been to the three day festival of speed in the uk.
the best and most freindly gathering of motor sport entusiasts in the world.
that's the convention to make into a must attend.
^^^^^^ Witness My Fury - Damn!! I must have the double whammy then, because both my wife and myself have AUDI's!!! Love them.
so, the title pretty much explains it.. .
i've come to a pretty definite conclusion for myself as to where i stand, and how i feel about the existence of a deity- let alone the idea that wts has divine backing.. .
my issue is that, being born in, i have lots of subconsciously ingrained phobias and behaviors burned in so deep, i constantly catch myself thinking and reatcting to things the "witness" way- things that don't apply to my life or the way i (want to) live my life anymore.. for example, because of the way i've been raised and indoctrinated, i've grown a serious aversion- you could say almost a literal fear- of worldy people; girls in particular.
So you are 18? Ok, I am 30.
I'm going to be brutally honest with you and everyone else on here. While I was growing up, I found the "Witness girls" to be mostly stuck-up, repressed, snobbish, cliquish, B*tches. Seriously, I couldn't stand them. And there were really only 2 kinds: really hot, or really ugly. You know which JW women I got along with best? Older, more mature women. I'm talking 15-25 years my own age. I got along with them perfectly, and my hormones always wished they would have made a move on me.
I was somewhat the opposite of you; in school I got along great with the "Worldly" girls of my own age. They were REAL, not some fake, polished, dress wearing, submissive, brainless, Quaker wanna-be. They wore shorts and showed some leg. They were fun and smart. Witness chicks (Teens, early 20's) were totally fake and since I wasn't interested in becoming an MS, I might as well have been invisible to them. There was ONE girl I liked when I was 16. She was 14, but was STACKED, pretty, and smart. She let it be known that she liked me. Too bad her step-father was the PO at the time, albeit a nice guy. He put a stop to her liking me. That sucked big-time, and I gave up ANY hope of finding a "witness mate" after that as I just knew I'd never be "good enough" for any of those condescending snobs. When I was 17, I confronted my parents with the fact that a 21-year old girl that I worked with at a local grocery store had asked me out. I was about to be a senior in high school and I point blank told them that I felt since I was old enough to work, pay for my own clothes, car, insurance, etc that I felt I was old enough to date as well. Surprisingly, they agreed and allowed me to date anyone I liked, as long as I was home by midnight. About 2 weeks later they came home from the grocery store and my father pushed a pack of condoms across the table at me. I was astounded!!! He was smart though, and knew I might as well be safe if I was going to be dating. This from pretty hard-core JW's while I was young!!! Guess they figured my bible-trained conscience would keep me out of most trouble. Funny thing is, it actually kept my virginity for another 6 months with the same girl. Man, I was a fool!! If I were smarter (and filled with less ingrained guilt) I would have used that box right away!!!!!
Other relationships came and went, until I was about 22 and met my current wife who is 17 years my senior. Been married 7 years.
Get on with your life and stop worrying about JW girls or even worldy women. What I discovered was that the manners, morals, and respect that I was taught while growing up a JW were actually very much sought after by "worldly" women who are impressed to the nth degree with them.
