  Talk about robbing Peter to pay Paul. I don't like the org anymore than the next person, but this is wrong on every level.

  Way to go, Russia.

  was there one certain event or was it more a cumulative thing?.

  For me it was many things. I am a very analytical person. That is not a good trait to have in the org. Certain things never made sense to me, but I always found a way to repress or ignore those thoughts. But the one thing that made me say "huh?" was the overlapping generations. I have been mentally out ever since.
  

  There was collateral damage, however. My marriage is shot. I have no friends. My wife and I don't even speak. It is almost like my family has moved on without me.

  Sometimes I wonder if learning TTATT was worth it.

  counties once at war with one another can forgive and move on.

  even horrible murderers who killed the family members of someone can be forgiven for the act that they did.. but god, no no no.

  no such thing can happen.

  Remember, Satan did not lie to Eve. Jehovah stepped in before Satan's statement to Eve could be fulfilled.

  There are so many things wrong with this story. I never totally bought in to it ever.

  JW's on my front sidewalk

  so last weekend, the jw's ring the bell and my wife answers.

  we live in a heavily spanish neighborhood but don't really speak spanish.

  i thought my wife was quite clear that she is a "sister" to them, but maybe the one in charge of the group didn't get the message.

  OTWO...At least they didn't run away immediately. Maybe you plated a seed of doubt. Who knows?

  Who said that the economy is better?

  How can anyone (in their right mind anyway) say that the org is growing? When you hear of mergers, dissolutions and consolidations, that is a sign of decline. You really can’t BS your way out of it.

  I knew that contraction has been going on everywhere. I just wasn’t sure if it was completed for now in Ohio.
