What a freakin' scam this religion is. Hypocritical douchebags, everywhere!
i was thinking about green handshakes, and i knew my wife and i personally would try to slide at least $100 each c.o visit to the c.o.
if we were low on cash, we'd never hand him less than $20.
how many of such handshakes does he receive in a weeks time?

my local cong just donated all money (4k +) on deposit with you know who to, you know who.
"since the society forgave all kingdom hall loans the boe felt it only appropriate to forgive the society of our loan to them.
" is exactly how it was presented to the r&f.
" the current rumored structure is to be all donations sent to the branch, local LDC pays bills and of course local LDC is branch appointed and accountable. The rationale is if a congregation sends ALL money to the branch there is no '3 month reserve' clause to allow congregations to decide how much to keep. There is alao a feeling that many congregations "misuse funds" slyly, buying pioneer dinners, throwing congregation picnics etc etc. they also simply want ALL funds available immediatly instead of a trickle through the cingregation process. Again, its all a "plan" but it being discussed somewhat seriously... "
Oh my! God forbid that the Congregations money that THEY THEMSELVES DONATED, might actually stay within the Congregation and benefit them somehow? Un-freakin-believable! This money-grab is absolutely sickening! They micro-manage everything! The Pharisees and money changers in Jesus' day couldn't hold a candle and would be jealous of these crooks to be sure! I swear, every day that goes by I am more and more astounded and shocked at the freakin' BALLS and audacity these crooks have. The fleecing of the Flock is in full effect! The foxes are now completely raiding the henhouse. I am so happy to have awakened from this BS years ago, that I could do cartwheels down the middle of the street. The control, the abuse, the manipulation is so extreme within this CULT. And these clowns claim to be a "charity" and actually have tax-exempt status? Incredible!!!!!!!!!!!! They only charity they are concerned about is lining their own pockets with the rank-n-file's MONEY. I am just sick thinking about this one aspect alone.
i was a bethelite for some time a couple of years ago.
some of the best days for bethelites were when there was ice cream for dessert.
now, they are asking (new release video at conventions) kids to give away ice creams money... for what?
i just watched the video what is true love.
first of all it is painfully long.
secondly there is an uncanny resemblance with megan(the one who married out of the truth) to the girl in the jeremiah book who married out of the truth.
I went to school with a nerdy (but nice) son of the Presiding Overseer. He was a nice guy, no doubt about it. He's still in, and probably an MS by now. Anyway, he married the daughter of a Circuit Overseer. Hahahahaha! Can you imagine what HE has to try and live up to? She's a pretty plastic face as far as I can see. He worked in a printing factory, probably so he could learn skills to go to Bethel and be a slave for nothing there. He nearly severed his thumb at work, so had to quit. Now he runs a snack truck business delivering chips. He had at least one child with this CO's daughter.
Anyway, I once met his PO father who I'm still friendly with. (he's a nice enough fellow) I asked how his son was doing, his marriage, etc. Know what the father told me? I quote, "Oh, he's doing fine. His marriage is very Theocratic." I knew right then and there.......without a shadow of a doubt, that my friend's life was a pure, living, hell, devoid of love and filled with monotonous never-ending servitude to the JW cult. His marriage isn't even filled with love, it's merely "Theocratic." That one sentence spoke volumes to me. I kind of cocked my head to the side in a knowing sigh of pity. I'm sure his PO father caught it.
What a waste.
ok, so i went ahead and got a tattoo.
well more than a tattoo, it is a half sleeve.
my parents haven't seen it, thanks to the chilly weather i've been wearing a sweater around them.
Last time I checked, we are no longer under Mosaic Law. I can eat shrimp, a pulled-pork sandwich, receive a life-saving BLOOD TRANSFUSION, do more than get out of bed on the Sabbath, and have sexual relations with my wife without having to be thought of as unclean for a month. Oh yeah, I can also make marks on my body or get a tattoo if I want. Neo-Pharisees no longer have any say in my life. They never should have.
I have this black and grey tiger tattoo on my arm. Shane O'Neill (SpikeTV's first InkMaster champion) did this in 7 hours back in June of 2006. It's freakin' awesome. My wife just got her first tattoo at age 52 in January from Shane of a 3D full-colour Eastern Swallowtail butterfly. It looks so real like it landed on her shoulder. Very tasteful.
just when you thought may's jw dot org video featuring wide-eyed cult lunatic gb lett guilting the masses into giving every last dime they have couldn't be topped, your children will now be fed a guilt-inducing cartoon in which they are guilted into giving every last cent they have to the wt cult.
the wt entitles this one, "give us your money!
even your children are to be shaken down!
I can't believe the developments in just the past say, 12 months from this Cult. Just when I thought they couldn't be more outrageous or top themselves with their own stupidity, another month rolls around and they pull their pants down around their ankles and show their hairy asses. It's just an incredible sight to behold. Truly, these must be the "Last Days." (for the cult!) One can hope?
Never would I have imagined such bold-faced gall and audacity. Never would I have imagined the near constant stream of "New Light" and "refinements" coming from the leadership. Leadership which used to be anonymous and faceless, unless you yourself were at Bethel. No more! The Popes of the blue Logos have shown themselves! Cartoons? Literature trollies? Folk music and televangelism? Acceptance of the once "Evil" internet, AND social media? Picking the pockets of children?
Too bad.......too bad!
the parody video is being released before the "official" release on sunday!.

PERFECT. I swear, that ACL sign-language guy will be forever alone after making that video. He will NEVER be able to live that down - EVER. It's absolutely obscene, and he knows it!!
Inserting that into the "Big Butts" video is freakin' gold!

How far off can Tithing be really? Not very far at all. Know what is really f*cked up when you think about it? All REAL Christian religions (and hell, even some other cults) actually GIVE BACK to their flocks, and in particular their next generation members - the children. What do the Governing Body of JW's give back to their congregation's children? These dumbass cartoons which actually have the audacity to guilt them into feeling bad about even day-dreaming about having an ice cream cone on a hot summer day, instead of giving every last dime to help construct more property and to the cult recruiting activities. Incredible!!
This cult is all take an ZERO give. It's how it was when I was growing up, and it's how it is now. It's just that now, it is more in your face and jaw-dropping in it's delivery. The manipulation, the guilt, the in-your-face entitlement attitude that these crooks have is just an incredible sight to behold. This sh*t has just GOT to be waking some people up. Just has to.
