  I had requested them to put shepherding concerns in writing.

  last week, i had requested the elders to put their shepherding concerns in writing and that only one elder visits me because i am uncomfortable with two.

  well, today they approached me and said we are not able to write to you and we are going to see you the two of us.

  i felt how inconsiderate and disrespectful of individuals the watchtower machinery is.

  You did very well. I can tell you from my experience, you can't teach the elders anything.

  As you did in the beginning, you said they can only visit you if they write their points and only with one elder. They blatantly disregarded your wishes.

  If I were you, I'd tell them if they want to meet again.

  "Thank you elder xx for your concern. My personal faith and relationship to Jehovah and Jesus are very dear to me and PERSONAL, which I won't discuss with you. I will let you know if I feel the need to talk to you about it."

  in today's wt study it makes the point that just glancing at the opposite sex is flirting and can lead to sex!.

  so are jw's now to wear blinkers?.

  also jw's are told to go and confess to the elders if they have any immoral thoughts?!!.

  Need the hardest evidence possible that humans have lived for more than 6000 years

  by ILoveTTATT2 in

  since coming out of the witnesses, i have gone through a transformation in thought and in mind.

  i started with the usual: i thought that jesus was god.

  then i investigated more about the bible and thought that the bible was not true, given the many contradictions, failed prophecies, etc.. then i investigated evolution and read lots and now i accept evolution and natural selection as things that are true.. now, i need to make my dad rethink everything.

  If there is a god or not we do not know.

  But we know that mankind is far older than 6000 years.

  I think that is a great answer he gave.

  It shows that he has a lot of respect for you.

  Check and research "Chauvet Cave" and especially "Cosquer Cave."

  "Cosquer Cave" has excellent proof, that not even JWs are able to refute. The only cave entrance is 41 metres below sea surface. So the people painting must have entered, as the sea level was much lower than today. This is a proof, that they could enter only during the ice ages much more than 6000 years ago when the sea level was more than 100 metres lower than today.

  Ron de Rooy - will he review his performance at the RC?

  simply amazing to watch.

  the restraint shown by the judge and lawyer is breath-taking.

  i'm sure they would like to pummel these idiots with a sledge-hammer, but they choose words instead.

  All they can say to delicate questions: "I don't recall."

  Are they all suffering from Alzheimer's disease?

  last week we had the cos visit and i wanted to share my experiences with you.

  some background info on me, i knowttatt and am fully awake, my wife also knows my doubts and read a few things on the internet but she is still 100% commited to the truth, saying everything on the apostate sites are lies.

  so right now i am in just to keep the status quo.

  Wow... just wow.

  I think this substitute co (will probably be your next co) is worried or cares about the truth of the abuse cases.

  He no doubt will follow the royal commission infos.

  This is a good way in order for you to gently point your wife to the royal commission facts. They can open eyes, wake jws up without a word.
