vigil help for burney man who died after being set on fire.
community members shared their memories of wicks, a member of the jehovah's witness hall in burney.
many of them remember him from his post at the shell station, where he worked along with his wife.
When we first heard about this horrific event, we were stunned and saddened like so many others. My jw wife's reaction was, "Jehovah will surely remember him in the resurrection". My apostate reply to her was, "Well I certainly hope so, but it would have been much more loving of God to have stepped in and protected his loyal servant from dying in such a horrific manner".
just saying!

I will admit that the wt society did help increase the desirability of the Brooklyn Heights area. They showed how run down property in that neighborhood could be restored. After all, the labor was basically free so why not?

do all potential converts have to take part in field service before baptism?
and do new members generally try to bring in their friends and family or do they generally keep their religion to themselves?
what do pioneers do if they're going door to door and chance on someone they know or work with in their personal lives?
Show up and endure the next 1-2 hours of utter non sense trying to avoid anyone that really has a real question! It's only important to show up which makes a pretense of righteousness!

what were your grievances?.

Even during my 50 plus years as a true blue dub, I always enjoyed this time of the year. Contrary to what we were suppose to believe about people being angry ans selfish during the holiday season, I found it to be the complete opposite. It's a time for family and time off work. What could be better?
Oh yea, getting ready for a jw convention. Oh what joy!
Back to reality, I wish all a happy, loving, and prosperous fest of your life!

i recently spoke to an old friend of mine who is still under the clutches of the watchtower.
a while back, i had told him about all the child sex abuse coverups, false prophecies, false doctrines etc.
he was really shocked and surprised.
JW's have a little brown book of 'canned responses' and even "practice sessions", (so to speak), on how to refute anything negative about the wtbts. The book is "Reasoning from the Scriptures" (lol). Having a "canned reply" makes them feel like they have done something so truly wonderful. They have defended the troof! How do I know?

there are two kingdom halls in two parts of the county i live in.
one is smaller and their are already about to begin work to replace with a new one.. just posting because i noticed posts saying their wasn't new khs being built.
and i learned this today from someone..
In the small town of Chowchilla, CA they will soon be building a "new kh". It will replace the basically "new kh" that already exists on the property. 'Apparently', or 'clearly' the RBC did a poor job of checking out the building site. They built a "quick build" kh on an abandoned landfill about 5-6 years ago. lol The existing kh and parking lot have since partially caved in. What a fiasco for those poor brothers in Chowchilla!
Praise jah!

jesus taught a surviving generation, a group inhering everlasting life, an escape route to avoid a global disaster worse than the flood, a generation that "will not pass away--" an infinite generation.
wt teaches a generation that dies, ends, passes away, at the first sign of real trouble, the great tribulation.. what do you believe about this wt assertion?
(apart from that there is no talking snake, it is all irrelevant).
Village Idiot: It is not the "overlapping" that is wrong, it is idiotic of course.
I started my neatly trimmed goatee a few months ago after that ambiguous WT on beards etc. Had not too much flack from anyone at the kh. Last week a couple of brothers stopped by to encourage me since I am inactive. They commented on my goatee, referring to it a beard. I told them to think of it as just an "overlapping mustache". There was an uncomfortable laugh by them because what I said was stupid but then again there were no further comments on the goatee.

there are many of us on this site that do not believe that jehovah truly exists.. i think this is a great and wonderful thing to be celebrated!
i'd like people to list the reasons why they do not believe that jehovah exists.
this is open to all, not just atheists or agnostics, but anyone that believes that the god as put forward by jw.org does not and can not be real.. i'll start: .
Don't you wonder how many jw's really, honestly, truly believe in the existence of jehober? As a 5 decade jw, I certainly had my doubts, for the many reasons expressed in this post, and eventually those doubts helped me see reality. He exists in Hebrew mythology but not in Human reality!
