The Kingdom Halls are empty

by punkofnice in

my jw spies tell me that the kingdom halls are empty compared to how they used to be, since i left 5 years ago.

not saying they're empty because of me though.. is that what you are hearing?.

Saturday morning 1974, snow on the ground, cold as hell and I'm the field service

overseer . I load up the family in the van hoping no one show up for service, OSU is

playing Nebraska and it's cold. I open the KH, my son think I'm nuts, (the game is on).

A few minutes later the friends start filing in, dressed in their snow booths and heavy coats.

It's a few months before 1975, we must preach, forget about relaxing in your easy chair by

a nice fire. We are close to the end, no time to waste. What BS....

If you were undeniably anointed with holy spirit what would you do?

by Splash in

so you have had some kind of supernatural revelation, a personal message from god and some miraculous sign that you have been personally chosen by the almighty, what would you do?.

would you be the same as every other wt'ite, dragging yourself to the meetings, getting your 10 hours in each month, maybe pioneering?.

listen!

OnThewayOut; We must remember the Almighty invented the game hide and seek.

I have never come across anyone that plays the game so well.

What do a Xmas tree and ornaments and a anointed JW GB member have in common?

Their balls are just for decoration.

John Oliver starts a new church ...

by EdenOne in

here's john oliver's take on how easy it is for religions to fleece vulnerable people in the us.

i had a few good laughs, but it's seriously disturbing at the same time.

I must add, there are some ministers that are sincere in their ministry. After leaving

the Witnesses I became a member of the church I was raised in. The minister

at the time was a good man. He refused the salary the church offered him, taking

much less, concerned about members a hard worker. But we parted because he

kept bugging me about starting a ministry like the JW's, knocking on people doors.

An typical anointed, someone with low self-esteem or one who fell to

accomplish their goal in life. How many anointed you know have a college

education, look at Mr Jackson and his degree from the WT school of theology, science,

and economics. Now what field is his expertise is questionable very elusive in that department,

"It's not my field".

I don't want the Watchtower's version of paradise.

by StarTrekAngel in

i am writing this in the hopes that it may help someone in a debate.

i personally have not had a chance to discuss it with anyone but that is true for most other topics.

i think is a good one to analyze.

And the poor resurrected ones, no sex. I can see it now, ok sir you have been resurrected

but there is something I need to tell you, you can't marry or have sex. Resurrected ones, how long

will that last, no sex? A thousand years as for as we know, that may changed after 1000 years when

the new scrolls are open. So for now we can't have you folks peeping in windows of those folks

who are married at night, we must remember the falling Angeles who married the women on earth.

Resurrected one, put me back in my grave maybe the rules may change after a thousand years.

I don't want to be a farmer for eternity, rising at the crack of day to feed the animals,

milk the cow and tend the field. I'm not a lazy person but that's hard work. Some folks

may love it, but my idea of paradise would be playing golf everyday and traveling.

In regards to "assigned plots of land" as the population increase, guess what, subdivision.

A lot of problems with paradise earth. A hundred years ago I had 100 acreages, now with

all those resurrected ones I'm damn lucky to have two. Don't have time to for anything

teaching all the resurrected ones the truth.
