I agree with BlueBrother - yeah, the hell with the older ones in the halls. Get the DVD your own way says the slave cause we aint producing it anymore. Now you're gonna have to get it from someone else who has the technology and if they don't visit you at the nursing home, then oh well, then you just don't get it at all.

That's what it amounts to, being totally dependent on others and others technology. It used to be that the slave would give them the human dignity to at least order their own DVD or bound volumes so they would have their own stuff, but not any more, no how no way. All to save a buck or two. It just shows you where their head is at.

Partaking of emblems

by sloppyjoe2 in

this year will be my first for by going to the memorial.

i will get asked by my parents how i can deny jesus even if i don't believe the end is close.

my thoughts on this are as follows, bear in mind saying it's all make believe is not an option.. i think that jesus intended for everyone to eat the bread and drink the wine.

LevelThePlayingField

I am going to partake even though I'm not sure if I'm going to heaven or living on a paradise earth. I just think it's what Jesus said to do, so that's what I'm going to do, and if others ask that's what I'm going to tell them flatly. And yes, I'm still active. Oh, yes, you can bet they will lay the "he's mentally diseased card" on me, go ahead.

Money to Org

by truthlover in

i know this has been talked about to death but this week our loving faithful and discreet slave wrote a letter to all congregations in canada - keep 1500.00 a month in congregation expense account each month for the next three months coverage,(4500.00 in all) 5000.00 for any problems that may arise but send rest into them.

so aren't we lucky to have 9500.00 still left in the account!

the elder reading the letter indicated it was for the kingdom hall building work!!!.

LevelThePlayingField

Well the good news is then that I think you guys and gals in Canada might have been the org's last stop because I think they tapped pretty much the rest of the world out of their funds. So now that they have depleted everyone out and they got everyone broke, then if the org still doesn't have enough funds then it will be really funny. And I bet they still don't. Ha ha, too bad.

how often do you, ........ no not that, how often do look at this forum ?

and how long does it last,....... no not that again (one track minds) how many looks are you addicted to a day?

keep coming back to see anything new, or do you look at posters who you know from experience have comments that will interest you?.

LevelThePlayingField

I try to get in here at least once a day. If there's a hot topic I'm interested in, then more than that.

LevelThePlayingField

Ours was a video shown from JW broadcasting about a sister who went to serve where the need was greater. Then the COBE asked how that could apply to anyone in our cong. He said that young or old we could be like that sister in our spirit.

Would you kill for the org?.......YES I WOULD!

by olongapo joe in

so, a few years ago my jw parents, my non jw sister and her husband, and myself were discussing religion and jw beliefs.

my parents of course defending the jw's, the rest of us, against jw's ( it may not have been specifically against jw's, maybe just religion in general) anyway, things are getting a little heated, and i finally ask my pops, if the watchtower bible and tract society told you to go out and start killing muslims, would you do it?

yes i would, was his reply, to which i say, then your not any different than the radical muslims killing in the name of religion.

LevelThePlayingField

I'm totally out mentally. In because of my in wife only. But when I was in, I was in 100%. I was a true believer in everything. I didn't doubt anything. But if they were to ask me to kill that would be it for me, I would be out. And I think I can say that with confidence, because when I found out about the society's involvement with the UN for most of the 90's, that was it for me. I started researching all the apostate websites, because to me, "that was it". They couldn't be trusted anymore, and they no longer were the true religion anymore, period. And the rest was history.

So kill for them, hell no.
