so after the 2 special pioneers visited i thought i had given them an earful about the arc and the pedophile problem in their organization surely they would have put me on the do not call list.. oh, no not my luck i get an elder and his lovely little mute wife with infant child in the stroller this morning at 9 am.

don't these people have a job to go to?

it was a car with 3 men & a woman.. we go through the standard do you read the bible yada yada, i tell them i know the routine very familiar with your game.

I really do find it amazing that more JW's don't know about the ARC down in Australia, and that their OWN GB MEMBER testified, under OATH, and LIED his ass off!! If I were still a JW, and someone told me what you told that guy at the door, I'd have to go home and look online, just to prove to myself that it wasn't real. Can you imagine how JW's feel that go home do just that, only to find out with their own eyes what for groveling, lying, sniveling asshats they have for leaders once they see him (and all those other Elders) testimony, right on YouTube?

The shock must nearly knock them over!

Gorby says goodbye

my eyes for ttatt opened in 1995 with the generation change and the wt magazine stated "some witness thought that the generation started in 1914".

since 1997, with internet at low speed, i followed h2o hourglass, www.xjw.com and later on www.jehovahs-witness.net.. did a bachelor and post bachelor since then.. now, nearly completed with fading, i feel it's time to go on with my life and do some other things, spending more time with my wife abd children instead of thinking about jw topics in my head.

goal is being a better person and less grumpy at 45.... everything what could be said is already said.

Goodbye Gorby, and good luck with your endeavors! I'd also like to implore you to have that large spot on your scalp looked at.

What mutherfuggary is THIS? As usual, one big guilt trip! Have a nice job and home with modern contemporary furniture? Well then, you are too worldly and materialistic! Don't you know that the Governing Body needs all of your "precious things", so that they can adorn their new WT HQ in upstate New York next to a lake, with granite and marble? You don't need to live "comfortably", so up and sell all of your belongings and live in some shitty apartment where the need is greater in Jerkwater, USA or possibly consider moving to some 3rd world shit-hole where the natives will only try to rob you and couldn't care less about your American cult? Nice one JW.dork, but I'm not falling for it. I'd also like to say that this level of fear-inducing paranoia, is about 2-steps away from the practice drills Jim Jones used to run on his followers in the People's Temple. This is some scary, cult bullshit right here. WOW! Pass the kool-aid, Sharon, then we'll all read some scriptures that don't apply to anyone in the 21st century.

this is a photo of the bethel repair shop taken in 1976. anyone recognize any of these lads from 40 years ago.

i know it's a long shot, but was wondering how many were still in after all these years.

i remember a few of them.

WingCommander

My God! Are the two guys on the right (front, with hands in pocket and arms folded) - wearing TIGHT PANTS?

Someone notify Knorr! I feel a Newboy refresher talk is in order! NPG's are only allowed to bunk with Chitty, remember? lol

Cult Think-How to deflate good news

me:"my son is going to south korea to teach english.

he'll get to live in another country, expand his horizons, and live comfortably while he is there!

"deeply devout jw brother-in-law:"oh, it's really bad in south korea.

WingCommander

Oh yeah, I am totally feeling this. Having been raised in "the crazy", I experienced this a lot myself. Nothing is ever positive or uplifting UNLESS it somehow benefits this crazy cult. If it benefits YOU as an individual human being, well that's just "Satan" try to negatively influence you into a sinful lifestyle. And all good JW's know, that anything not somehow pointing towards the benefit of the WTBTS is the broad path to a sinful lifestyle, hedonism, and "Satan", AKA - Everlasting Destruction!

It's all so crazy and self-defeating. No JW lives an authentic life NOW. It's all just going thru the motions for some promised FUTURE life, that MAYBE you will get to live IF you make it past the final judgement at the end of the 1,000 year reign. Maybe. And even after that, if you mess up you'll be instantly vaporized out of existence, because during that time YHWH will have a zero tolerance policy on subordination or independent thinking.

Oh really Simon? But if we disagree with other countries policies, we're shouted down, told we are barbaric, etc?

Funny, other countries sure as hell don't seem to mind taking all of MONEY, AID, etc ever since...oh....WW2?

So what you're saying is, everyone's entitled to their opinion except us, and that we're to just shut up, and keep the perpetual wallet open, aye? You know, I honestly hope Trump does become President, because then the free ride for the rest of the MOOCHER countries off of the US tit - will be OVER! He's already stated how he intends to pull funding of NATO down the levels of the rest of the allies, instead of us being 75% of it. How's THAT for us "pulling out of the worlds politics"? I'd love to see us pull our troops out of the United Nations as well. Screw being the police for the world, as well as the world's piggy-bank. What do we get out of it? NOTHING, except an ungrateful smart mouth, and more and more immigrants arriving on our doorstep with their hands out looking to weigh down our social systems even more than they already are. I'd love for Trump to become President, then pull funding out of NATO, UN, build a wall all along Mexico, and pull all "aid" from the Middle East, as well as ALL of our US servicement overseas. Screw 'em! Let the world handle their own affairs for a change. Bring back our carrier groups to Norfold, San Diego, and Honolulu.

What a freakin' joke.

Be ready to obey!!

http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/w20131115/seven-shepherds-eight-dukes/.

from paragraph 17-. at that time, the life-saving direction that we receive from jehovah’s organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint.

all of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.. i think i know what the instructions will be.it's nothing new.
