Gorby says goodbye
by Gorbatchov inmy 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. -

Cult Think-How to deflate good news
by Captain Schmideo2 inme:"my son is going to south korea to teach english.

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!!
by kairos inhttp://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.

Do you really want to fan the flames of pro-gun vs anti-gun crowds around here, AGAIN? We all know it turns into the USA/Swiss/Israeli VS the UK Kingdoms, etc. A few month months back, how many long-time members LEFT (or were dismissed) over this forum bickering?
Seriously, this is a place to talk about JW or cult-related topics. Not politics, firearms, Trump's hair, etc.
I frankly don't care what the Brits or Aussies are doing. As an American, I don't answer to the "Queen Mum", and as being under the British monarchy or whatever the fugg it is, I don't expect you to answer to our President. So live well, enjoy a pint and some shrimp on the barbie. I'll enjoy a pilsner of Sam Adams after a day of target shooting or hiking.

My Bible Study Is Wide Awake To The TTATT
by James Jack ini ran into my old bible study at the kingdom hall recently, he was baptized as a jw 8 years ago.
we started talking about small things and catching up about our families and then the bombshell.. "my wife and i are deeply troubled by the watchtower change of doctrine, prophecy, and their history"!
"did you know about charles russell and his failed marriage... his view of pyramids... generation mistakes... and dates... that place in california for returning prophets..."and on and on he went.. i told him i knew all about it and then show him a publication on display in the foyer (i think it is divine plan of the ages), and it had a fold out of a pyramid and a description on bible verses that showed 1914 was the year the big a was going to happen.

Funny, if you are both "Awake", then what are you both doing in a Kingdom Hall?
WTF?
