The meetings at the Kingdom Hall now are positively scary

what was i thinking my entire life?

during the first part about submission, everyone gave the same comments about being obedient to the elders even though you may not agree with them.

and they talked about submission to the organization no matter what.. no one, i mean no one raised the possibility that the counsel or instructions might be wrong, or harmful.

My brother bonefide, It's fun pushing the button a little, but be careful...to the the average dub this smells a little apostacy

i went today because i wanted to hear the comments on this wt article.. it did not disappoint.

one comment that summed things up:.

"i know i can trust the slave because everything i have ever read from the slave has been for my benefit.

GAAAWd, it was hard to gag the rag study today. I felt a little vomit coming up my mouth several times. I tried very hard to tune out.

Counseled by elders for body odor

it's amazing how the congregation i was in promoted passive-aggressive behavior.

whenever you saw someone behaving inappropriately, you were supposed to run to the elders to tattle.

in some cases these were things that were none of our business or should have been handled privately.. there was a pioneertm who was having personal problems of some sort.

An elder member of my family was assigned by his body to council a sister on her hairy legs. I guess she shaved once or twice but then went back to her old hary self.

I was going to translate it tonight but decided to check my other favourite site Beacon for former Jw and there is a discussion and summary of the youtube clip. No translation needed as the summary is quite adequate.

this morning, my grandmother died at age 92. she was a jw and i never told her that i quit years ago (but i guess my father told her).

fortunately, i had a chance to see her a last time this tuesday when i tried to see her and learnt she was in hospital.

my father had not told me that she was in hospital.
