Aw that's so sweet guys. I'd say it would go to my head, but I still have to change diapers every day. Nothing brings you back to reality quite like changing a one year old's diapers LOL.

Thoughts and Opinions on the VAA?
by arko_n9ne inas i've posted multiple times before, i am new to many of the aspects of wts scandals so a couple weeks ago, i was on youtube and heard of a group concept from tim kilgore called the vaa (vast apostate army).. personally, i like the concept of former witnesses and anti-watchtower proponents uniting to stand against the wrong doings of the organization.
i would like their rally in a few years to succeed.
if things look promising enough, i more than likely will go.. but honestly, i don't know much about the vaa, and since it's not a concept with that "new car smell" i imagine people have more infor to offer.. i saw on older posts that witnesses are not fans of the idea of anyone banding together en masse against them, as they go to the lengths of calling the vaa a terrorist organization (though no acts of violence or tyranny have been committed or threatened).. so if anyone can offer insight into this group, it would help a man know if it's a group worth rallying with.. .

Awake openly mocked on website...

this is actually not a former witness or anything, this is a cracked style article.
i think it's pretty funny, i think it's evidence that the wt is not going to be around forever.

I don't think they could've done anything to help him, alot of the old timers have that addictive personality. Unless they're ready to get help they're not going to change unfortunately. I wish him the best, I hope he gets better he was one of my favorites in the NWO even though I hated him for beating my idol Rick Martel for the IC title in '93 or so...

Have you seen Scott Hall lately?..Jeezus what a train wreck..
Are you kidding, that was for a promotion I used to work for though back when I worked for them it was called SCCW and YPW. The guy who wrestled him is a good friend of mine, he's a really funny guy so hearing his side of the story is hilarious. Another friend of mine is the one who checked him out of the hospital. Apparently the doctor told Scott Hall "If I could discuss something with you" he said "What do you want to send me to rehab, I've been seven times but I'm happy to go for lucky number eight." I'll be honest the promoter is a bit of a douche at times anyway, I think he should've sent him out for autographs but that's all. Poor guy though, I used to talk with him on Facebook he's a really cool cat.
I'm in agreement here with Mad, there's no question to me the open mocking is going to cause alot of damage. I think they can point to that scripture "ridiculers coming with their ridicule" all they want, all it takes is time. Right now it's basically "They're a little weird but they're harmless" things like this is "Holy crap they're idiots", but if we can get the "They're nut-jobs and their religion is dangerous" THAT will spell the end.

I am going to sound weird here, but holy cow! Tim Kilgore posted on my thread! I'm honored.
There are only a handful of ex-JW's who can prove they opened the eyes of an active J-dub. Even fewer who can point to a website with a transcript and confirmation video of the conversation that did the job.
And Tim Kilgore, you sir, are the few and the proud!
LOL, finally I can prove to my wife I'm not just a legend in my own mind. Thanks I appreciate the compliment, I'm really not anything super special I was just able to jump on a trend before most people and I can articulate ideas that have been circulating for a while making it a bit more accessable than some other stuff out there.
Luckily I always have PropagandaTechniques singing my praises of helping him leave.
Even one of my brothers-in-law (a 24 year year baptized Witness) gets upset by that name, and we're across the country in North Texas. THAT is power.
Hell yeah it is. It seems like the only name out there that you can say you're part of and simultaneously scare and piss off a witness. You can say you're part of Witnesses for Jesus, Project Refellowship, Wh1te Rabb1t, whatever it's not going to matter to them. You say you're part of the VAA and it gets an immediate gutteral reaction. It's like this was meant to happen.

Londo111 - That is the point my friend. How do you kill a religion? You have to stop all people from joining right?
There are two ways to do this, either get all the children who are born in to leave, which news flash there's only 37% of them staying as it is.
Or
Stop all recruitment efforts. So let them close the ranks, let them circle the wagons. If the majority opinion of Jehovah's Witnesses is not just that they are annoying going door to door, or crazy but let the majority think they are harmful.
Again, going door to door you answer "Not Interested I am part of the Vast Apostate Army". If they ask why give your reason "I think it is duplicitous to have a blood policy that allows hemoglobin but not red blood cells. It unnecessarily costs lives." "I disagree with the policy of two witnesses needed for cases of Child Molestation, it unecessarily causes multiple children to become victims." It's all policy and all things that the general population will agree with, there is no defense for them either. Think of a JW encountering a Scientist at the door who opposes their religion because they don't allow a red blood cell but they do allow hemoglobin, there is no explaining that to a Scientist. It makes no sense to anyone really, hell most JWs don't even understand it. Or the policy on Child Molestation, do you know any JW that can explain that away except for lying? What if the general public knew it to be true?
In the next five years the goal is to stop all incoming members, as you said most know there's something wrong anyway. So after the incoming members have dwindled to nothing we can work on those who are already in.
As for this:
Then they think, "But where you going to go?"
There is a place to go, The Vast Apostate Army.

Hoo-Rah! It's looking like the Army is getting pretty vast!
I think the biggest thing keeping this from being a much bigger movement is convincing the ex-JWs who left but never talk about it to start talking about it.
Any ideas people on how to get those casual ex-JWs to speak out? I keep thinking to make it a cool thing to be a former JW and speaking out as the cool thing to do. It's seeming to get there, XZibit spoke out recently, LaToya Jackson speaks out, Sheri Sheppherd speaks out, we need more.

I remember that video Punk, it was funny because that was my initial thoughts on it too. The VAA shows up on November 5th, 2017 and nothing happens well guess what? JWs you're not the chosen people because the scripture says as soon as people turn against them it will be like touching God's eyeball and he'll step in right away.
There's ALOT more JWs rattled about the VAA. There was a question on Yahoo questions about it some time ago, and when I went to my old congregation it was like it sucked the life right out of the room. Right there in front of them was an opposer, not someone who said they weren't an opposer who thought their religion was harmful, not someone who wanted to convert them to some other religion, not someone who was kicked out and was bitter, but someone who was at their hall to show them there was a group of people determined to take out their religion BY A CERTAIN DATE.
It's giving power to the powerless and a voice to the voiceless.
Just like blonde-moment says, "We're not going to take it" (Maybe that's my next music video)

C'mon, Tim. As if their D2D work now produces any results... Let's see, hmmm, about 11 trillion hours of preaching to just start a "bible" study...
Ha, definitely. Think about if everytime a JW went from door to door there were more doubts put in their head. Every day at least two people telling them a perfectly legitimate reason why they don't support their religion. It brings a tear to my eye (boy I'm getting soft after two kids)...
