  Just when you think it's safe to go back in the water

  by berylblue in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ...you see northern girl is back "gracing" the boards, and you know it's time to go back into hiding.

  the only thing worse than vitriol is specious (and, i might add, poorly phrased, punctuated and misspelled) vitriol, aimed at those least deserving.

  i am not in a mood to take her lame, semi-literate attempts to upset everyone here.

  Why let this "person" control you? Please don't give this, rather small, person any power. You do what you want to, comment where you want to, you're bigger than that! I remember walking into a business and seeing the PO of another Hall and walking right out. I'm still mad at ME for letting that prick control me like that. Never again. Next time I'm determined to be such a pain that HE walks out when he see ME! Maverick

  Most of you are just pitiful whiners. !!

  but not according to me.. for the number of jws still going strong the ones here is but a handful, so mabye most of you are just pitiful whiners who should accept a little personal responsibility for your lives and quit trying so hard to blame someone or something.

  northern girl.. .

  and is the following reasonable?you have the right to do anything you want on this board ... it would be 'nice' if the name didn't say 'forum for jehovah's witnesses' though.

  As for the whiner part.... As for the JW discussion part, this is a great place for Jehovah's Witnesses. They NEED to be here, just like they need to wake up and smell the stink...from Brooklyn! Maverick

  First Visit to KH in 1 year - Observations...

  by Confucious in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hey guys,.

  went to the kh for the first time in about a year.. i went in part because i have a couple of friends there (i'm not df or da).. good or bad, here were my observations.... 1) people were generally friendly, but it seems (and honestly) that most of the friendly ones were the ones considered "spiritually weak" by kh standards.

  2) it's pretty sad how much the "f and d slave" is actually worshiped.. it seemed that every other watchtower comment was geared toward praising, "jehovah's faithful slave., etc.

  2. friends

  you didn't come to that conclusion in an instant, did you?

  you thought about it, deliberated and concluded: god exists!.

  how did you get to that conclusion?.

  I live on the West Coast of Florida, near Clearwater Beach. When I go to the beach and check out the women, all I can say is,"Oh my God!" That's all the proof I need! Maverick

  compassion

  by teejay in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  when i dropped off my daughter the other day at the daycare, there was a little boy sitting on the floor crying.

  almost everyday there's at least one kid doing that... pining away for their mommy... so i didn't think much of it.

  they stop crying soon enough.

  Goodbye Hair.

  by CoolBreeze in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i haven't posted in a long time, but i did say i'd pop in every once in a while if i had something of significance to say.

  well i thought this was significant enough to share.. a few weeks ago in a moment of altruism i had my hair tested for the "locks of love" program, which is a hair donation program for chemotherapy patients who have lost their hair.

  today i received a letter stating that my hair meets all the requirements for donation.

  When Jw say :"It was your personal choice"

  by JT in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the avg jw when confronted with pass issues such as not going to college, setting up retirement plans while you are 23 for when you get 65, seeking a better paying job will often try to hide behind

  "it was a personal decision".

  while in one context that is true, there is one problem.

  The key to remember here is that the J-dud Masters DO NOT CARE about you, only about themselves. If the odds are that your going to college, or good job will take their power over you away...they are aganist it! Anything that they can not use, they are against! The poorer, dumber, and more dependant you are, the greater control the duds maintain over you. "It's your personal choice." is the same as a used car dealer telling you,"You can trust me on this!"

  Howcome the WTS does not include personal testimonies...

  by jgnat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  howcome the wts does not include personal testimonies in their meetings (i mean, ones that have not been edited by the writing department)?

  oftentimes when i am preparing for an instructional course, i go looking for a sample completed form.

  in order that my students are not led astray, i try and find the perfect sample.

  As a side note, at Circuit and District Talks there is a board of Elders that have copies of the written talks. They mark every deviation from the written material the speaker makes. Too many changes and that Brother will not be given a speaking assignment at the convention in the future. Maverick

  No need for apologies, great account! You did come to the right place, there are some very sharp people on this site. You might like to read Crisis of Conscience, don't let the J-duds know you are reading that book. You will get a lot of insight to the J-dud Masters! Most of the duds don't know most of the stuff in that book. Please keep us posted on your progress. And Welcome! Maverick
