  Yes, but don't forget that this is an Awake! article which is sanitized for public consumption, not the Watchtower "manna from heaven" .

  have any "faders" ever accidentally "outed" themselves by signing their real name to a post?

  i'm really paranoid about that, and often go back and recheck my posts to see if it says "odrade.".

  Ghettopoly .....why not BORGOPOLY !!!

  by RubaDub in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the game "ghettopoly" is getting a lot of attention as a ghetto version of monopoly.. has anyone thought about a borg version of the game ?

  it could be a lot of fun.

  1. all properties on the board would now be called "territories".

  How about Armageddonopoly? No money necessary, you just go around the board choosing properties of the deceased. I know it sounds boring, but geez, you have like 10 bizillion years to play!

  There would be no banker. Players would collect "field service hours" to be exchanged for "Paradise Dollars" to be spent after Armageddon.

  This works EVERY time, but it's hard to explain in writing...

  Fill a glass with water, then put your mouth on the FAR side of the rim, rather than the normal drinking position. You will have to lean forward to do this. Then, bend forward until you can drink 8-10 sips in this position... it's kind of like drinking upside down.

  Did it work???

  worldly girl: you worry about your problems and i'll worry about mine (actually, none of your business).

  Whoa, did I hit a nerve, Sweet Sally? You don't seem to mind worrying about other posters' "business"!

  Is it just me, guys, or is she becoming "Bitter Sally" ?

  Sally, are you willing to accept the consequences of posting on an "apostate" website? Do you think you are pleasing Jehovah?

  The group teaches or implies that its supposedly exalted ends justify means that members would have considered unethical before joining the group (for example: collecting money for bogus charities). I actually don't think they are guilty of this one.

  Doesn't shunning family members/friends count? Most people would consider this unethical. But, the end (getting the person back "in") justifies the means.

  OK I'M MAD

  my sister is a bethelite.

  i got into a discussion with my mother over e-mail about how i thought she generally was at bethel not for the spirituality of it, but because of the prestige.

  it got me to thinking.. why do people really decide to become bethelites?

  It's all about prestige. Not just at Bethel, but within the local congregations and all the way up the spiritual food chain. I see the typical JW as someone who can't make much of themselves in the "world" but feels super-important at the Kingdom Hall. How about the simple haughtiness of feeling you are in a miniscule group that will be spared by God while billions of others die at Armageddon.
