Yea, I know gun tooting cops and high ranking fireman that are dubs in 'good standing'. Both the police and fire departments are semi-military organizations in structure. The chariot is moving in strange directions!

15 Years of Jehovahs-Witness.com
by Simon inyes, today is the forum's 15th birthday!.
i never thought for one moment that it would survive this long or have so many people post so many great subjects over the years.. it is still humbling when i get pm's or emails from people expressing how the site has helped them and of course thanks goes to all the posters who have shared their experiences and make helpful and supportive comments to others who are in the sometimes difficult process of learning the real truth about 'the truth'.. the site has gone through several different incarnations over the last 15 years running on different platforms, different databases and different hosts but we've been able to keep all the old topics.
the current site is still being developed and i'm hoping to push another major upgrade soon.. i also may have some other news to share soon about the future of the site so stay posted.. until then, here's the the next 15 years!

Thanks for the past 5 years! Yep it took me a lot longer than most to finally acknowledge ttatt. This site has really helped me to successfully fade and help at least 2 of my boys to take a serious look at ttatt.
So congrats and if the big "A" doesn't come sooooooon, I'm sure this site will help many, many others.

[REPOST] Memorial Non-Attendance: The Single Most Impactful TTATT Witness to Family and Friends
by AMNESIANO in(originally posted march, 2014)anyone who has awakened to ttatt and has conscientiously left the organization--especially a once-prominent, highly-regarded, studious believer from a prominent multi-generational tribe of jws-- after decades of devout, high-profile "serve-us," who continues to put in an annual appearance at the memorial thoroughly subverts and undermines, by this one act, any hope s/he may entertain that his/her departure will stir family or former friends to question the whole watchtower bamboozle.
by this one concession s/he assigns him-/herself by every single jw to their handy and dimissive purgatory: the "spiritually-weak.".
nothing blasts a louder, clearer, and more deliberate message to the jws who personally knew you and those familiar with your jw bona fides that you are not merely "not making the meetings," "inactive," or "spiritually-weak," but that there is a conscientious reason you have rejected the entire watchtower society life than choosing to forego what they know you once believed to be jehovah's must-attend, one-and-only, holy/sacred event of the year for his people, the lord's evening meal.. you hand them the very justification they so relish to self-righteously label you as a "submarine witness" deserving of jehovah's, and more importantly, their judgement.

You have an excellent point. I still go for the sake of my 'still-in' wife. Because she wants me to be there. Same reason I attend Catholic funeral services for my relatives. Just showing respect for the beliefs of others is not a crime, IMHO.

I agree that the only way this will happen is if the governments threaten to remove tax free status on organizations that enforce 'hate crimes' or 'hate policies'.

why report more partakers?
by rebel8 inof all the threads here about the number of partakers increasing, i don't recall theories as to why they report this.
they could stop reporting numbers altogether or lie.
instead they say, in essence, "our teachings about end times and heavenly hope are still wrong"..

why report more partakers?
That's a good question. I'm sure the gb will soon find some obscure scripture to twist that will justify their counting even the "unworthy" partakers. It will probably by under the guise of "the end is really, really , really close."

Accept Jehovah's Discipline
by EndofMysteries inso many times the wt uses a phrase close to that, when they really mean accept the gb's discipline.
with all of these sex abuse cases and other skeletons in the gb closet coming to light, just like king david, perhaps somebody should tell the gb to take their own advice and accept jehovah's discipline as all of their dirty laundry will continue to get exposed and they need to humble themselves.

I have often mentioned to my (still in) wife that the gb likes to throw out wise sayings like
"accept jehovah's discipline" etc. My absolute favorite to bring up is "wait on jehovah?"
I tell her that if 'waiting on jehovah' is good why doesn't the gb "wait on jehovah"? Why doen't the gb wait until jehovah gives them the real, absolute, clear, no need to amend, truth before they put in writing crap that constantly requires 'nu-lite' to explain?
In other word, why not "wait on jehovah" to get it right before publishing a lot of horse sh*t in the wt?

Their delusion run-ith over in today WT study rag mag.
by Crazyguy ini noticed that in paragraph 13 they mention the girl sheryl that i believe was the same girl that was in their video about the typhoon that hit the philippines back in 2013. they talk as if she's so happy and thankful to jehovah even mention that she lost most of her family in that typhoon.
what they don't mention was her family members that were killed in that typhoon were inside a kh thinking they were going to be protected by jehovah since they were in gods house and his people and all.
they also fail to mention that the government authorities were telling people to get out of town but the elders were most likely telling the people in their congregations to stick around and just come to the hall.

Great comments!
You pretty much said exactly what many of us have thought for years. Jehober makes sure the 'error filled' silver sword gets printed on time but is tooo busy to save people's lives in the Phillipines? WTF kind of god is that? May the blessings of jehober never be bestowed on me!

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.
