  not sure if this was every where or just our area, but you could always tell who was big shit top dog in the hall elders by the size of their bag.

  Former2free bio and intro

  2. experiences

  oh where to begin i am a born in witness witness mother and father and grandparents though only 2 of the 4. i was born in the early 80’s and immediately my parents faced the blood transfusion issue course in their minds at the time it wasn’t an issue it was not gonna happen.

  i don’t wanna go into too much detail but fortunately it worked out well as is evidenced by my writing of this back story.

  i had the usual spiritual goals that most witness children have i got baptized at 13 then i started running mics and doing sound and giving more talks.

  Welcoming Our Latest JW Apologist JTrottigy

  by pale.emperor in

  2. humour

  i'd like to take this opportunity to warmly welcome our newest jw apologist jtrottigy.

  .

  he'll likely only be here for a few days like most jw defenders before he runs away when presented with his own doctrine.. so far he's already said some hilarious stuff, like "there's no such thing as nepotism in jehovah's organisation", "confidentiality is paramount to elders" and, my personal favourite "the overlapping generation is so simple to understand".. yh don't think i don't remember you from jwtalk..

  If I am not mistaken Trottigy was studying to become an engineer. So he may be an apologist for now, but he is sure bucking the jw trend by going for higher education.

  New brochure about donations.

  by Ray Frankz in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  in this midweek meeting the local needs was a booooring speech about the new brochure on donations.

  the wt must think the jws are dying to know how to give their money.. well, it's not new this is disgusting but this time, after i ve been slightly hinting people here and there for a year about the 'abnormal request of money' and remind them that 'the faithful slave wasn't like that until some time ago', this time i saw their faces.

  they did get bothered with that talk.

  They have always had a 'planned giving" brochure. It is generally housed with the secretary of the congregation and you can ask to see it.
