just for those people who love to hate martha.. hawk
I'd like to cuff her to a bed, and show her "naughty things". She was once a model, and although I can't stand her incesant rambling about housewares, I bet she is still good in bed. lol. Imagine all of the cute toys she could use on you.......................

yeah, you heard me.
the meetings are too darn much like having an enima to even bother to go anymore.
i get the same message from only attending about 8 meetings a year to hold me over.
Yeah, you heard me. The meetings are too darn much like having an enima to even bother to go anymore. I get the same message from only attending about 8 meetings a year to hold me over. Why would anyone go several times a week?? Rediculous!
It's just the same dreadful message of despair wrapped in their interpretation of Revelations. (which I can believe, but their ultimatums are wearing me thin) Go out in field service, pioneer, place literature, get baptized, OR ELSE DIE when the fateful day comes. Remember to smile and like when they put you down for not doing what they say and feeling guilty!! Doesn't matter if you follow the ten commandments, are generally a nice, good, straight, normal person. Do what they say OR ELSE DIE. What ever happened to being humble, and following Jesus' foot steps???
Going to those robotic, Borg-like meetings is dreadful, and quite honestly depressing. I do like seeing my friends that are there, though. Oh, and by going only a few times a year, people are honestly glad to see you, not just grinning and pretending to greet everyone. I also go to the gym alot. I feel keeping my "temple" in order is also a requirement of God, so I go alot in order to stay healthy.
I take back my statement. Enimas are much more fun, mainly because the same ol' $hit doesn't come out of that hole twice!!!

i am like an emotional screw up.
i am like a 17 year old with no ability to take harsh words in.
they upset me.
Do what your heart tells you is right. Screw what anyone else thinks. In the end, you'll feel better.

no ...not talking about a jw song (that one was my favorite tho).
i think everyone has won something at one time .. i won kiss concert tickets from a radio station ( don't even like them).
a friend of mine won a car in high school.. have any of you ever won anything?
I won AeroSmith concert tickets once, that was cool.
I've won various door prizes at events I attended in my community. Hey, there's a new idea to get meeting attendance up, give out door prizes!! Like, Kingdom Melodies CD's, old irrelevent WatchTower magazines (they can clasify them as classic reading material), and ear plugs.
RubyTuesday, you would be a great prize I would think.

.............instead of the bible!!
whenever "new light" comes out, they tell you to ignore their statement made in 1974 watchtower mag #etc, page #, article whatever, paragraph something-something.
i'm sorry, but i never went back to research what those old watchtowers that were printed before i was born even said.

To me, the more they change things and reference old WT magazines, the more the Bible is left out. I don't feel that is right! Even in new articles, they seem to reference more of their literature, books, etc, than the Bible. It never made much sense to me, especially to new people coming into the Org that have no clue what that stuff is, nor care. Also, when things do change, or you ask about their failed prophecies, they ignore you, or tell you that there own writings of "old" are irrelevant. Now how can that be? If that's the case, why would you trust anything that is printed now. Wait, I know - you are supposed to "put faith and trust in God's organization." That is nothing more than circular logic.
They need to get their heads out of their asses, and get back to the Bible. There would be less confusion, less "research" to have to do, and more interested ones. Following new words of men, instead of the Bible will lead to trouble every time. You'd think they'd realize that by now.

how many people got sick after they were baptized.
englishmans post reminded me of my experience.
i was about the 20th person to go through the little pool not much bigger than a bath tub.
JW's are pretty ignorant when it comes to medical situations. If it isn't herbal, natural, weird, etc.....well they don't want to hear it!! A doctor, you're a doctor??? They only listen to witch doctors. lol......
As far as the baptizmal pools, why would you get sick? Isn't God supposed to be looking out for your best interests? Guess not, if you are getting sick from being baptized!!!! The JW's would say it's all Satan's fault....not theirs. Nothing is EVER their fault. Just Satan's.

inspired by a previous post on "bad songs," i was just thinking about how i (or all of you) are probably viewed by people still "in" the jw's.
we really are just "runnin' with the devil!
" (in david lee roth scream) .

In JW's eyes, and by their very words we are: no good, dirt, apostates, fallen short, evil class, bad association, wicked, unloving, unrighteous, wordly, satanic, defenders of evil, dark ones, workers of lawlessness, puffed up with pride, fallen to temptation, and finally - "one having independent thinking." Well, someone shot me for having an independant thought above and beyond what the narrow-minded old geezers who don't have a life, don't have a career, and whom live in a crypt up in Brooklyn think!!
Have any of you heard these nasty names thrown at you by JW's??? Or, has any name-calling gotten back to you??
Just to let you all know, I don't listen to "Kingdom Melodies" while going back and forth to work everyday. I remember that was the GB/WT suggestion as to what to listen to instead of the "evil" radio!! As for me, one of my fantasies is to pull into the KH in a pristine black '79 Corvette Stingray with black windows, chrome side exhaust rumbling, and a blower sticking out of the hood. I'd pull in, let it sit there a while rumbling, and then open to get out with VH's "Running with the Devil" really blasting. All dressed in a dark black suit, I'd walk in with my black trenchcoat, goat-tee, and KJV Bible in hand. Man, I can't wait to see the looks I'd get. Probably get a good talking to by some Elders, if they could grow the balls to ask me into the back room!!! lol.
What is your ultimate fantasy of ticking of your old congregation, or to show how worldly you've become? Worldly to me, means NORMAL person!!

Yes, I see your pic RubyTuesday. Big Ben is no match for me. Your pic is hot as well.........heehee!!

i was reading a post that reminded me of the songs that were popular but was wrong to listen to for various reasons.. we all remember puff the magic dragon being about drugs, which i hear was just a rumour.. another i remember was let it be by the beatles, which was " catholic based about mary the mother of jesus" when apparently it was written about paul mccartney's own mother.
shows what they know.. which songs do you remember that were "bad" that we were not supposed to listen to?
The ultimate "no-no" song banned by all JW's :
Van Halen: "Runnin' With the Devil" ------------ we all miss you David Lee Roth!!!
Wing Commander
yeah!
that's what all the guys lurking on here really want to know!!
lol.
Yeah! That's what all the guys lurking on here REALLY want to know!! lol.
Since the JW girls are all uptight, rude, materialistic, or just plain dumb, I am wondering if there are any REAL women on here? Women who know a good time is more than having a chaperoned Bible study and holding hands during the WT discussion. (YUCK!!) And yes, I know this board isn't for playing match maker. lol. But still, I'm curious how many hotties are on here???
Let's face it, we'd probably have alot in common: not wanting to dress like we are still in the 50's, being able to listen to real music, being able to actually go out on a date, & not worrying about sinning.
Oh yeah, I'm hot and I know it!! I was always the good boy in the KH, with the evil grin that all the good girls couldn't resist, but were too shy to come after. lol. No beer gut here.....................................
Let's see those pics!! Yeah!!
