Does this make me a terrible person

by Clambake in

my wife has a friend at her kh.

she is 37 and her friend is 88. i know it sounds kind of strange but they are both the wives of ubm so they kind of stick together.

my wife is very sincere in this friendship and this lady is a nice person.

millie,

You are so kind; always the good cop and always trying your best to minimize hurt and maximize positive. I'm glad you are here. I really am. But you can't put lipstick on this part of CB's piggish personality and come away with anything other than a pig. With lipstick.

LOTS of us have been frustrated with life and especially with the Dark Tower and Dark Lords. Lots of us would never ever even consider this type of greedy grab. Your kindness is off base this time. Not everyone who tells you sweet things is your friend, Millie and CB, and not everyone telling you harsh things is your enemy.

And Wasanelder Once: "Goodness is its own reward." It seems when it comes to these types of OPs and issues that your excellent axiom is typically associated with the rationals.

Yet more rationalizing bullshit, this time with a blame shifting, victim, focus: "Man, the holier than thou bullpoop in this place is nearly has bad as the KH."

Clam, you are just like my ex-GF (with a stress on the 'ex'), a greedy grabbing manipulative opportunist. Trying to justify or rationalize it is more of a problem with who you are as having these dark thoughts in the first place. And yes, CognifiveDizzy, there are a lot of us, including me, who have never and would never try to greedily grab something that didn't belong to us.

I agree CB, Simon should delete this OP. If he can delete the portions of your mind and heart that would attempt to lamely rationalize and justify your greedy grab that would be even better. You should have stopped when you were ahead, which was post 1.

The following rationalizing pile of bull-shit has absolutely nothing to do with whether the old sister includes your wife in her will and especially whether you should try to manipulate her to do so:

They are friends and your wife is sincere
The old lady is a nice person
The elder is a fat sack of shit just doing his job (would it matter if he were a slender, handsome, kind elder who was just doing his job?)
That the old lady may give all of her $ to the Dark Tower (she can give it to the gay, midget, catholic nun society if she wishes - it is her money and none of your bees wax)
Your wife is pregnant and signing a blood card
Whether your wife may die because of her stand on blood
Whether the meeting with the elder was secret. Would it matter if the meeting was public?
Her husband just passed away
She never had any children and she has no blood relatives left. The only relatives are a niece and nephew on her late husband’s side and their children.
Whether the old lady is close to any of her family.
Whether any JW attended his funeral or whether they are all assholes and cunts.
Whether only 2 attended and they wouldn't stand for the prayer
Whether her husband liked the JWs
Whether there are elders in their 60s that are still living paycheck to paycheck and living in apartments
Whether you trust these fuckers and they are just looking for a handout.

The Bible is NOT Error-Free

by FusionTheism in

for many christians, the bible is viewed as the 100% error-free, perfect book straight from god, where every single word was carefully chosen by god for a reason.

but, usually, when you have a discussion on the topic, these christians will end up saying that only the original copies written directly from the hands of the prophets and apostles were error-free, and all manuscript copies since then are subject to copyist mistakes and other errors.. since zero original copies are in existence, how do we know the originals were error-free?

why should we think the originals should be error-free to begin with?

Fisherman,

I avoid theist OPs, and you and I have never had any reason to cross paths on this site. You have used the word profane twice now to describe the very funny video Viv posted. We get it. You would want to be our moral compass and our hall nanny. There are a lot of things on this site, the world wide web and for free tv that children would best be served to avoid. So what. There is a place for adult humor, especially when it is making such a salient point. You say irreverent and profane; I say damned funny and spot on. Potato, potahto.

Funny Stuff.

Simon didn't delete it, so evidently it didn't cross the line. it offends you and you didn't find it funny, wonderful. Stupendous. Change the channel.

But if you wish to continue being our moral agent and hall nanny, you will have another wise ass to deal with. I respect and avoid theist discussions; I fukking hate to be preached at.

Ok, now I will leave a theist OP alone, as I am in danger of violating the prime directive.

10 years and Satan finally struck....

by snare&racket in

jw
friends

i left around a decade ago, life has not been easy, but it has been profoundly better than the jw robotics my earlier life chapters resembled.. my current life was going so well, too well...... and finally the nemesis of jahooha came out from his dark hiding place.

no longer in gods tent i was as vulnerable as the chinese job and his unfortunate sheep and children.. satan, bless his socks of cotton, has finally attacked, he broke my leg the dark lordy bastard.. a spiral fracture of the fibula and various fractures the ankle joint.. the worst of all his evil doings was the story i have to tell people, it's 'mechanism of injury'..... i slipped on some grass.

yes the devilish ball rash, got me good.. so now, i sit bored, wishing i had meetings to prepare for, talks to write and i long for the live bombing i would have received as an interesting new kingdom hall event in the decades of waiting on jahooha..... but all i have is some lame ass, american apostates on a forum..... tchhhh.... .

DJS

Snare,

That (S)Limey bastard Satan!! It could have been worse. I tore my achilles and everything else around it nearly 1 1/2 years ago, and it is just now getting back to normal. Glad to see you continue to visit our dysfunctional little group. Each time you visit you leave us taller, smarter and better looking.

Viv,

I'm assuming 'shear' is a metaphor (please, please, please be a metaphor).

Are Jehovah's Witnesses Christian or Cult, Do JWs Offer Solutions for Local and Global Problems of life?

by skepticSam in

the awake on "hope for the homelessness" was one of the worse illustrations how the cult has no love for anyone that can't provide donations to further this spiritual ponzi scheme!

the premise of this awake made no sense, i've read many books and took classes on social issues affecting mankind, the awake does not help fix the problem.

what did this magazine offer those who are suffering the humiliation of living out of their cars or "tent city" or under a bridge?

DJS

To answer your OP: a. The Dark Tower is a Cult; and b. The Dark Lords can't help anyone with anything. As for the rest of your OP, it is sprinkled with truths. However, a lot of homeless people have brought their situation on themselves. That isn't lacking compassion and it doesn't mean they all have, but to ignore that many have caused their plight is to also bury one's head in the sand, which also won't help their condition.

Christians not knowing the Bible

by Viviane in

last night a young man in a bar struck up a conversation with me.

our town is having our pride parade soon and he brought it up, the bible and how it's against the bible.

me being me, i said that i couldn't care less that it was against the bible and that it was a horrible guide for morality anyway.

DJS

Viv,

I'm on vacation in CA (Big Sur, Monterrey), which I believe is your lovely state. I've ignored this site as a result but your girl on girl created a disturbance in the force. It also caused a disruption in that Star Wars Lucas Jedi Knight thing-ey.

We could trade stories, you and i. Simon would kill us. We would die with smiles on our faces.

You all keep this thread alive until my return. It's a keeper. Like Viv.
