  Oh the irony! The elder, a car accident, and me....

  by stuckinarut2 in

  oh this is just worth sharing!.

  so , as many know, it has been two years since i have attended any meetings, conventions, etc....nothing...cold turkey.. the hassles and problems the elders threw our way were monumental....so many details i could share, but suffice it to say, we stood firm and kept our dignity and poise and reminded them of "appropriate boundaries ".

  one elder in particular has since spared no effort in ensuring that malicious gossip and slander has been spread so that witnesses have avoided us like the plague!.

  sir82 He won't forget your kindness.

  He won't forgive you for it either, because now you have put a knot in his brain and he can't get it out.

  The “boldness” of the GB

  by Hecce in

  this topic is related to the one about the relocation of publishers and moving and dissolving congregations.. some of the things that we are seeing now were unthinkable a few years back, examples the closing of the branches, layoff of bethelites and travelling overseers, the grabbing of the congregations funds and many more.

  some of my friends tell me that basically the wt was operating with an early 20th century business model that needed a tune up and that worldly consultants are behind the changes that have been implemented.. nevertheless to put it in hollywood terms, they seem to think that they are on a “mission from god” and that they are “going where no man, has gone before”..

  DOC: I wonder why God was steering them in the wrong direction?

  
  

  It's not the wrong direction. It's just not logical from a human standpoint.

  JW elder on the street I live in.

  so just the other day i happened to look out my window to see the cobe and the elder who studied with me on the doors.

  it got me thinking.. i remember one day, during my study that he said he loved me.

  although he meant this as a "brother" it actually sent me into, what i can only describe as shock and alarm!

  Anything that is beautiful is turned in the ugly by the watchtower.

  It really is. You can't even celebrate the birth of a child or, if you believe he is your savior, the sacrifice of Christ.

  Thank you WT!

  well here's the thing... my brother-in-law needed some marketing boost for his dental clinic (i'm a dental student by now, her sister, my girlfriend, also), so i designed some brochures and today they were ready at the print studio.. i told him... "look, i spent 20 years in that cult, they have a very boring message, and they still managed to achieve 7m or more adepts, so i will distribute this brochures in the area this way: just like in field service, drawing some territories and "preaching" block by block... just to know were and when our advertising is being delivered".

  so i started preaching the "dental good news", it was so easy compared to field service!!!

  everyone were very receptive in the clinic's neighbourhood (it's in a downtown area in santiago, cl).

  Actually, I googled "dental terminology" ... and went from there.
