  "Brexit? What's that?"

  having shared the arc report on facebook and shaken up my network of jw friends, uhhh... i am now learning how unfortunately ignorant they have become.

  so far the overall response to the report has shown that well enough, but it got worse.. a friend of mine moved to the uk from california a few years back.

  after he saw my post, he pmed me, essentially checking up to see if i'm alright.

  @ Simon:

  Actually, this US election had a record turnout, the most of any US election ever. Just because the electoral college didn't go the way you saw fit, doesn't mean we're all living in a shell down here. And I'll be the first to admit: I'd rather have Trump over Hillary, and Democratic wife agrees! However, I will also be the first to admit that I feel the electoral college should be disbanded, and election decided on popular, majority vote. I don't feel it right or fair that the person with the most votes losses the election. That was fine back in the 17-1800's when electoral colleges were supposed to represent the slaves and uneducated, but those times are OVER. Whether I like it or not, Hillary Clinton SHOULD be President of the USA, based upon majority, popular vote.

  I'd also like to point out, that in addition to TOMO III's showy display of jewelry above, he is also brazenly wearing the colour purple. Since when is that acceptable on a heterosexual JW male? Seriously, that's about equal to wearing pink! What's next TOMO da Homo? Tight pants? You naughty, naughty boy!!

  Oh, and that pic above from a recent WatchTower.......F*CKING DISGUSTING!

  Empty fridge = Sad Grandma.

  Giving your last nickle to the WTBTS, even though you're starving? = Happy Grandma.

  How much more blatant and "brazen" can they get? Hey, someone's gotta pay for TOMO III's gold Rolex watch, gold rings, and gold cuff links on French cuffed dress shirts.

  F' the old ladies! The Son of Man didn't have a pillow to rest His head upon, but I'm better than that!

  Know what I'd like to see? The Branch actually send some money BACK to local congregations to help with the needy, poor, elderly, & sick. You know, like a fine Shepherd should be doing? Like the "Charity" they constantly profess to be?

  Ha! Hahahahaha! Like THAT will ever happen! This corporation is such a money-grubbing parasite upon it's members that it's not even funny. Yet NO ONE seems to notice! Everyone is too brain dead and programmed to OBEY all direction, no matter how illogical from a human standpoint. What a farce and total racket they've got going.

  Copy of Crisis of Conscience for Sale

  by Village Idiot in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i’ve run into hard financial times and have decided to sell my second copy of coc for a fair price.

  you’ll find them on amazon for ridiculous prices starting from $59.84 for a beat up used one to $294.96 and up for a new condition copy.

  i’m selling mine in new condition for $50.00 plus shipping which should not be more than $5.

  I feel ya. I put my copies of COC and ISOCF up on ebay for $90 each. They both sold in under a month. They were in mint condition. My mom had bought them, read them, and gave them to me. I read them. They sat on a shelf for 10 years. I needed the money, and figured someone else should benefit from their insights, so hence sold them and hopefully the next person will do the same after finished reading them. Keep them in rotation. They don't do any good collecting dust.

  as i have revealed in other threads my mother and i havent talked in over 2 years.

  she has been keeping her distance, therefore staying loyal to jehovah.

  It's not about "putting Jehovah to the test", as the Organization doesn't equate to Jehovah. It's the Organization that needs put to the test, just as the Apostle Paul praised the Boreans for doing.

  @ Vidiot: No, I don't. Hey, these people show up at MY home unannounced, professing to have absolute "Truth", which is an insulting, condescending way claiming the householder believe in "lies." Guess what? They'll get a whole load of actual "Truth", right back from me!!!

  yes, it's true, geoffrey jackson, the cleverest member of the governing body, is going apostate.. he's already written two scholarly books, the question is .... when is his third book going to be released!!.....

  desirousofchange: "faded" is definitely only an "apostate" term.

  i don't know of it being used by wt publications or "in the dark" jwsberrygerry: geoff jackson used it during the arc..

  Canada Bethel (Georgetown) to begin renovations early 2017

  by Richard_I in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a letter was just read at my midweek meeting that georgetown (canada bethel) will have renovations done on it beginning spring 2017. the letter asked for publishers who are electricians/plumbers/etc.

  and in good standing to apply to help out.

  those helping out will be considered "part-time commuters" and will only be at the property for about 3 days a week and must reside outside of bethel and pay for all their own expenses.

  What a racket these assholes have going on. "Hey! Come work for us for FREE, so that we can sell off the property and make profit off your hard work, and oh golly gee, pay your own way and for own expenses. Must be able to tolerate emotional abuse."

  Where do I sign up???
