  the fastest way to weed out the bullshitters is to invite them to an apostafest. The blowhards never show up.

  That is good - I went to a Wisconsin Apostafest amnd met some very cool people including Blondie and Husband

  Has anyone got anything positive from the WT organisation?

  everyone seems to just hate the wt.. i am very upset with the way ive been treated but i dont hate them.. they have given me huge self confidence after helping me out of depression, although i have a fab counsellor, so they cant get all the credit.

  they have made me independent as well, (i think my ex-study conductor regrets that!

  ) i suddenly have a mind of my own and am not afraid to use it.. i owe them quite a lot they have really helped me through some bad times but they have created some bad times for me too.

  anytime the congregation's numbers were down or there were numerous problems in the hall, the elders would question whether anyone might've grieved the holy spirit.

  did you ever??

  Is Paul responsible for founding "christianity"?

  by cameo-d in

  did jesus really have the intention to start a new religion?.

  did he really plan his own execution in order to save mankind from eternal damnation?.

  did jesus actually regard himself as a divine being, knowing it would be an infringement of the first of the ten commandments?.

  The weirdest thing was the playing of the new songs. When the new songbook was announced, they played snippets of several songs with vocals. It sounded like one of those CD offers on TV. Also, at the end of that crazy drama, they had one of the new cheezy songs about kids (even though the organization leadership doesn't much care for children). I guess it was supposed to heap the guilt on parents that weren't able to keep their kids in the cult, but the result was a bunch of folks leaving for the restrooms!! I exchanged puzzled looks with several others and a few were on the verge of laughing. Not exactly the response they were looking for.

  YES I NOTICED THIS
