They justify this behavior and attitude with the bible, where actual scripture state:
".....and God gave them up, due to their disapproved mental state...."
and
of course the destruction of Sodom & Gomorrah.
"sorry, what's disgusting?
", i replied.
"that thing we've just called on", the sister said in response.

i bought a house literally in walking distance from the local kingdom hall.
we used to get saturday morning doorknockers on a regular basis.
then it stopped.
"Why, YES, I am in fact familiar with the Lord's Evening Meal. It's where Jesus commanded his followers to partake if they desired everlasting life. Why then, do JW's deny the emblems, and merely pass them on? Only Satanic cults DENY the emblems of Christ."
Bet THAT would have gotten them thinking! lol.
russia: justice ministry seeks complete jehovah's witness ban.
by victoria arnold, forum 18. with no public announcement, russia's justice ministry lodged a suit at the supreme court today (15 march) to declare the jehovah's witness administrative centre "extremist", to liquidate it, and to ban its activity.
if successful, this would ban all jehovah's witness activity across russia.. russia's justice ministry has submitted a suit to the supreme court to declare the administrative centre of jehovah's witnesses an "extremist" organisation, order it liquidated, and ban its activity.
Good for Russia! They tell it like it is! JW's are parasitic leeches, who offer up absolutely NOTHING to society in the form of charity, help, or ease suffering. Instead, they are a burden on the system that eventually divides families. Totally subversive. Good for the Russia!
it seems that most people who have been witnesses that i've known in the last 20 years are still jws.
they may not be as zealous as before but they still remain as jehovah's witnesses.

What CrazyGuy said. No new ones. No young ones, and born-in's are leaving in droves. Why do you think WT HQ all of a sudden has cartoons, comics, etc? Never would have happened 20, 30 years ago. And yeah, the Reddit forum is growing like crazy. Stories from the recently left every day. It's amazing to see the exodus, because you just know for every person posting their stories, there are 10x more lurking who don't post, or don't even know about these forums or subs.
i've been as honest as i can on this forum throughout my time bouncing in and out..and been jumped on for saying anything positive about the "truth" or my experiences at the hall, but it's been a few years now since i have been attending meetings.
i go to the memorial for family reasons and went to the assembly today for the same reason...but one observation i have to make is most of us have all dealt with years of hearing how gawd awful "the world" is and how the only happiness is going to meetings and out in service.
now that is total bs.
So that Kool-Aide is still Ummmm-ummmmm good for you, is it? Well then, just sit on down, shut off your brain, and drooooooool as Lett the Clown or TOMO III indoctrinate you with their rubbish for a few hours. **GAG**
we leave friday for his disney cruise wish.
he's also a big star wars fan, and they have a star wars day on one of the seafaring days.
to say we are all looking forward to this is an understatement.
We went on a Disney Cruise (Magic) about 6 years ago. We'd been on several cruises before. Considering the cost, we were expecting top-notch service. Honestly, it was "meh". The food in particular, was truly sub-par. Entertainment was good, rooms were very nice. Characters were around. Disney's private island "Castaway Island", is truly awesome. They have clear tubes and you go out in the ocean, lay on the beach, etc. Food there at the grille was good and fresh. The water was fantastic. Enjoy your cruise and family time.

news video included.
mlgw sued for religious discrimination, harassment & retaliation.
So this guy is a "moocher", who's pissed because the job opportunities offered to him by his employer, don't meet his religious schedule? GTFOOH, asshole!!!! Your employer is not responsible, not do they care, about your "religious meeting schedule." That has NOTHING to do with work. Do you want to eat? Better get to work, cause the Elduh's sure as hell aren't going to help you out!! This guy is just pissed that his disability is no longer willing to pay out for him to be a lay-about and/or Pioneer on the Government's dime!!!!! He's royally pissed that the company offered him an alternative job, and is using "meeting times" as an excuse not to accept the offered alternate positions. Guess what? That's HIS freakin' problem!! Talk about a sense of self-entitlement! But then again, this is the JW mindset isn't it? That the "world" somehow revolves around THEM, thinks THEY are so wonderful, God's Chosen People, etc. Freakin' pathetic. This guy is a disgrace, a parasite, and a lazy BUM. I hope the Judge sees this as what it is, and tosses the case right out.
stephanie, just a warm thank you for going public and allowing us to look into your personal and private life.
congratulations on your victory.
in a better world there would be no need to pursue such a cause, therefore congrats are tempered with unfortunate reality.
From a fellow York County resident, thank you for bringing all of this to light and for standing up for yourself, your rights, and also for looking out for the other young people who you may have saved from similar treatment.
this photo is doing the rounds on jw inspirational on instagram.
although the brothers and sisters think this is "oh so amazing" and "so cool" it's actually very sad and quite shocking.
what, people cant even enjoy their wedding day without the cult invading their special day.
steve2: is there some way this can be presented so that it is crystal clear what was actually in the demonstrations and what was added?
i guess some will think it should be obvious - but this is where misunderstandings arise because we end up wrongly attributing something to jw organization that was never said.. circuit assembly theme: maintain love for jehovah!.
note to speaker: warmly encourage young ones to prove their friendship with jehovah by observing his commandments and defending his standards.
LESBIANS? "Ohhhhh myyyyyyyy!!" "Scissor me, scissor me timbers!!!"
lol
