I just clicked on this thread for Bitties, and from the photo above from Mrs R-Awaken, I was not disappointed!

Noice!

Sophie gives even more than ice cream money to the WT

by OrphanCrow in

Caleb and Sophie's parents don't NEED the money, right? But WatchTower NEEDS every red cent in order to pay for an entire MOUNTAIN in China, from which they are mining ALL of the granite that they are using in construction at the new WT HQ. No BS! WT actually bought a freakin' MOUNTAIN in China, and having the "local brothers" over there mine, cut, and ship it over to the USA to be used in the construction of WT HQ. So there's the "charity" that the kid's ice cream money is going towards. Sickening!

Unbelievable! Is this even allowed? Two elders from my hall RANDOMLY stopped by my apartment!

ok wow.

i am really really pissed.

i had to really hold back and bite my tongue.

Why are you being reinstated? If you're going back to meetings, and looking to be reinstated, then as far as I'm concerned you're asking for it. That's what these creepy Elders live for- stopping in and "encouraging" hot young sisters such as yourself. They totally get off on that.

I thought you were DONE with this freakin' cult? Out on your own, living the good life? You can't keep ties with a cult, and not expect it to bite you in the ass once in a while.

let the investigations commence.

Must be Jehovah's will. Finally, he's allowing all these things "to be brought to light." Took long enough.

Gross! Grooming of young brothers in the KH to do more for Jehobadahhh and his organ-nigh-say-shun! I saw it myself.

so there is this young brother probably 14 or 15 and the elders are already grooming him to do more for jehobadahhh.

most of the elders in this kh are old like 60+ and sometimes there are not enough brothers to do the mics or sound so you will see a 70 year old elder forced into action.

almost comical to see a brother who thinks instagram is an email service try to operate the sound system and projector as he plays the wrong song or brings the screen down during a prayer.

Nice to see you back gurl! Still livin' the care-free life? Damn I wish I were your age.

Long time lurker, first time poster ...

by LettMorrisSplaneit in

i finally had the guts to create a profile to be able to post.

i've been lurking for a few months and have read all your experiences and comments dutifully.

you have been a great help in my process of waking up from this cult posing as the one true religion.

Oh man, major props for created Avatar name. Hahahahahahahaha! Freakin' luv it!!!

Welcome. I feel ya. I'm 36, born-in. I never thought I'd be this age in "this Old System of Things", much less pushing 40. I can barely believe it. I'm sure you, like me, can very clearly remember the promises of the 1980's "Generation that will surely by no means pass away", etc. Then they went and dismissed core doctrine, and left me with my jaw on the floor and no college education. Good thing I at least went to a local vocational school in high school and got some training in CAD, so I at least make some decent money now.

I couldn't imagine still being in. I escaped totally before I was 20.

"It's much easier to avoid worldly entertainment, now that we have JWDOTborg."

yep, that's what my good friend said at yesterday's wt study.

wished she would have actually said borg...

Brainwashed and delusional. If they were given Kool-Aide at the next Memorial and told to drink it down, they would gulp it down without question. Crazy.

Any weapons enthusiasts here?

by Wonderment in

i knew i had a couple of firearms around the house, and one in the car.

however, i didn't realize i had seven, yes, seven of them, when i proceeded to count them.

the reason for that is that i haven't gone to the shooting range in years.

How are gun laws working out for Australia, Chicago, NYC?

I also have a CCW/CWP.

I don't belong to the NRA.

All of my firearms are locked up in a secured, locked, cabinet, along with the ammo. The only exception is my carry piece, which either a.) in my jacket or b.) in my briefcase.

I am actually FOR the closing of gun law "loop holes", and am FOR increased and thorough background checks, and believe that individuals with a history of mental illness should not be allowed around firearms.

I don't believe cowering in fear of weapons is the answer, NOR outlawing them all. The people of Switzerland and Israel seem to behave just fine with their firearms?

Animals are going to act like animals, whether they are armed or not. They will still prey upon the weak. Why disarm the weak, and make them truly defenseless?

I don't live in the UK, or one of the UK's territories and don't give 2 shits about bowing down to the Queen of England or anyone else. If you Brits and Canucks want to do that, Great! We had our American Revolution for a reason, and without the firearms we made for ourselves, we'd be just like you - NEUTERED. If the need arises, we can have another great revolution. Can YOU?

So I got down-voted for merely listing what I have above? I don't even have a full-auto, or even a suppressor. But I'm thinking about picking up an IMI Uzi. It's classic.....like Glock before Glock existed. You can bury an Uzi, then dig it up and fire it. Yep.....UZI it is. I'm going to get one, SBR it, then get a suppressor. So much fun. I pity you wankers that not only can't own firearms, but can't even carry a decent knife that isn't a.) below 3", and b.) a slipjoint. SAD.

Colt 1911 Gold Cup Trophy MKIV (.45 ACP)

Beretta 92 FS Target (9mm)

Ruger MK III Target (.22 LR)

Ruger Blackhawk (.41 magnum)

Ruger 10/22 USA TALO Edition (.22 LR, my 50 yd rig, with Simmons .22Mag scope)

Ruger 10/22, totally custom (.22 LR, my 100 yd rig with Vortex Viper scope)

Tikka T3 Sporter (.223 Rem, my 100-750 yrd rig, with Vortex Viper mildot scope)

I also have quite a collection of knives from Benchmade, Spyderco, Boker, CRKT, ZT, etc.
