Religion is a snare and a racket
No hellfire
No Trinity
Certain holidays have Pagan Origins (so does the wedding ring but we pick and choose which we want)
College is dangerous -it MAKES YOU THINK!
or are they as correct as any other false religion?.

i received this and am passing it on email.
(nyc) area by jehovah's witnesses.
god in this project, too.. .
Not heard this - as usual the best source for information in JW land is this board!!
former jehovah's witness mark palo featured on free minds, who claims when he was a young boy was raped at the world headquarters of jehovah's witnesses by a governing body member named leo greenlees and says his life has been adversely affected by the watchtower org.. he has lost most of his family, over indulged with alcohol and has faced unrelentless problems both physically and emotionally.. marks therapist is willing to speak up in a court of law and expose the evils of the watchtower society.. mark will be our guest in the 7 pm to 9 pm hours.. .
the first amendment (freedom of religion) has always been on the watchtowers side in stopping class action lawsuits against them but a stunning new twist has emerged that may open up the flood gates for scores of new lawsuits.. if your life has been turned upside down by the watchtower organization and would like to participate in and perhaps be compensated for the life altering damage caused to you then dial into the six screens of the watchtower conference call sat.

Mouthy - an Eastender - bless her - you guys sure as hell took one helluva pounding during WW11.
My father-in-laws job was to load up the Lancasters (with bombs) for revenge.
in april, 1917 the united states declared war on germany.
the german u-boats had sunk a bunch of american ships and the war declaration was justified, even though woodrow wilson was basically, a total asshole.. anti-german frenzy hit the american shores.
sauerkraut was renamed "freedom cabbage" and dachshunds were stoned to death.
All Japanese were bad after Pearl Harbor.
All muslims were bad after 9/11
nothing changes sadly. The human race seem to be haters
.....sometimes they just are irritating to think about..
I am sick of their "holier-than-thou" attitudes and all the " ooohing and aaaahing " every time there is an earthquake or similar.
i have to believe that in this day and age, they all suck.. and in the thousands of years of politics, i don't think there's any person or party that made life all that much better.
(except maybe during fdr's reign)....but i'm not sure if all those programs that were instituted didn't produce the mess we're in now..
No - here is why. Take Obama - elected on Change we can believe in. No matter how sincere and sensible the policies -it requires CONGRESS to get its act together. So no ONE person can - it needs great minds to come together and do what is right for the majority.
so a few months ago, i had dinner with an ex-missionary/ex-co (mentioned in coc and pentons apocalypse delayed) and he had some really interesting and funny anecdotes about his time in brooklyn bethel and spain.
(i will ask him permission to reveal his name at a later time) but i just wanted to share one particular story that really made me laugh as it shows how ridiculous elders can behave after theyve been thoroughly dumbed down by the wt leadership.
he explained that while he was serving in spain, a trivial matter came up in one of his visits to a congo in barcelona sometime in the late 70s.
holding glands - now that would be different!
Yes and no. I just got to a stage where I did not care. Then I got woried about not being able to attend my childrens weddings etc. Then I got to meet some people and talk to some on here and quite frankly, I trust the people on this site more than I trust JWs at the hall - sad but true.
everywhere i've gone, no matter what, there's always a 'popularity contest' (which i'm a loser to)... whether it was in the organization (based on how high you went up the chain of command or who you married for the sisters), the school system such as high school, college, etc.. or job.
who does the hardest work, who does what, when how.
even on this website.
Well minimus is still going strong after all these years -and has by far the most posts of anyone
the watchtower september 1, 2010 11. .
the dangers of being deceived (page 10/11).
to deceive, says one dictionary, means to cause to accept as true or valid what is false or invalid.
Glad this thread got bumped to the top
