so, i haven't lurked here in a long while however, i have been checking up more frequently and i saw that there is a rumor going around about getting barred from marriage if the brother not appointed by the time he is 23. is that true?
if it is, i am so screwed haha.
proud fader present within college.
I bring up the "tight pants Tony" rant every time I get a chance. I absolutely love that he made such a stupid suggestion about not being a ms by 23 indicates that something is amiss. There are several young sisters in the congregation (that I use to attend) and I mention Tony's statement to them when ever I can which make my wife a bit irritated-----but, as I tell her, it was the 'brother of Christ' that said it not me.

considering the fact that the wt society refuses to release in courts any of it's written directions to elders through confidential letters to elder bodies- i thought i'd do the courts and wt society a "favor " by posting excerpts from this oct 1st.
2012 letter from the wt society to all bodies of elders.
these instructions are very exposing of the negligence of wt authorities in how they view the seriousness of felony child abuse.
Yep.
I knew a 35 year old 'brother' who was and 'elder' (and actually he was my mentor--- I loved this guy) who molested his own daughter for years! I was on the jc that 'reprooved' him. Five years later, he's re-appointed as a elder and the next year he is giving talks at the dc's and becomes a regular dc speaker. Gota' say he had some big brass b**ls for getting up there in front of his family and those who knew about his perversion! He has since been removed from the dc speaker circuit.

news report.
man found dead at jehovah's witness facility.
the daytona beach news-journal.
Well said DD. Y wood jehober protect King David the murderer, or Lot the incest monger or Solomon the the apostate and not poor old Seante?
Maybe cause there ain't no jehober? Or if there is he don't give a sh*t bout translating the bible into sign language. Maybe jehober is pissed that the wtbts has change the bible to meet their own needs and don't want anymore of the "blind leading the blind"?

the c.o has visited.
what gems did he have for the sheeple?
he gave a talk that was entitled "rejoice in the truth!
What i REALLY loved was last summer's DC or RC what ever, talk entitled, "100 years of Kingdumb Rule". What a friggin' joke! How did the speaker keep a straight face? I snickered through the whole talk much to the chagrin of my wife. She knew why I was snickering and I truly believe that she had a hard time keeping a straight face at some of the ridiculous crap the speaker said.

how many were baptized in your area, last assembly?.
santa paula, ca..........17..
So sad that parents are allowing their pre-teen and/or young teenage kids to make "the most important decision of your life" . They haven't even lived any of their life! I wonder if those same kids told their jw parents that they wanted to get married right away, which is only the second most important decision of your life, how many would start planning a wedding! LOL

the internet is the archive for civilization.. watchtower cannot hide it's history.. are we seeing the beginning of a mass exodus out of her?.
As the growth slows down, the gb will find a scripture to twist about how it was prophesied that as the end approached (TM) there would be a slowing down of the growth in jehobers organization. After all there are over 35,000 scriptures that they can twist.

long time lurker here.
i don't want hate in our hearts - jw are wrong oh so wrong - and i want to blame this religion for making me cold and distant to the world.
but i believe everything is meant to be, we all have purpose in this world.

Are you really a spy for the wtbts trying to get us all to reveal who we really are? LOL
Just kidding. It's part of the paranoia i grew up with being a dub. You know--never trust anyone unless they are a jw because satan is out there trying to snatch us all. LOL

growing up, i never ever even saw these guys faces, or even knew their names.
all of a sudden they're on my computer screen, tv, and on every other magazine coming out of the watchtower machine.
why all the glamour now?
It was better when we didn't know them. At least then we THOGHT that they had jehober guiding them----maybe. Now that we know them, we know how truly stupid and self absorbed they are. It's like seeing a very stately older lady---naked. Not a pretty sight.

.........................as soon as any fellow witness can -.
a) provide just one bible verse that proves jesus personally selected anyone in 1919 - let alone j.f.
rutherford & co. - as his "faithful slave".
Me 2 I want to pioneer again! Hell, I'll settle for any proof that jw's are the only true religion.

this topic has been on my mind lately.
i have been looking around at jws and wondering how many truly believe the end is as near as they are told.
from my personal experience, i know that my parents fully believe the end is imminent and may come any time now.
Deep down in their hearts, probably no jw really believes anymore. It's extremely difficult to admit their lack of belief but reality has set in for most. And of course all they need to do is look at their leaders and see that the gb is NOT preparing for the end, they are preparing to expand jehober's earthly possessions. The only urgency today in the wtbts is survival.
