i am currently having visits made on me by the elders,who are trying to help me "unbelieve" the things i have learned to be true from the bible, which naturally contradict wt doctrine.. as well as asking me "where else will you go" they said that members of the public walking into a kingdom hall expect all within it to be jehovah's witnesses holding firmly to their doctrines and not holding divergent viewpoints like i do.
they said it would not be proper for someone to hold a belief that was contrary to the society and still be expected to remain a jw, even in name only.
i have stated to them that i can no longer preach the wt version of the "good news" so they automatically assumed that i am not obeying jesus' command to preach.. i am in a bit of a predicament as you can see.
And you haven't been disfellowshipped yet? WTF? YOU'RE LUCKY TO BE ALIVE!

apparently it just came out today.. lonewolf.
sacred cruelties.
commentary by maureen dowd for the new york times.
Yerusalyim: All human beings are religious. It is only the form of the religion that changes. Some people worship Britney Spears <nudges LB>, some worship God, some even worship Satan. So what? All of these are fixations, powerful ones. You're right about the cause/excuse thing tho.

some of my favorites are:.
"man's fate is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: as one dies, so dies the other.
all have the same breath; man has no advantage over the animal.
Faithful2Jah: I won't use the 'T' word, but you're cornered, and you know it! Just admit that JosephAlward is right already, GEESH. There's no reason for the invective you're using against Joseph - it's losing you a lot of credibility...

those of us who completely deny the wts way of life and beliefs are thought of as serving 'satan'.
what self-respecting jw would deny this?
anything under the sun that doesn't coincide with wt doctrine would be considered 'satanic' by jws.. there exists a long list of satanic activities we can be engaged in.
Great post, TR! You put the points across in an excellent way, and every one of them is so true...damn!

All this poem proves is that this woman was too idiotic to go for STD/HIV tests before she married the chump! HELLO! KNOCK KNOCK! Anybody home?
SHEESH. Maybe we should give her a Darwin Award?
Pity about the baby tho, it wasn't his fault his mother was so stupid.

since the first "'experiences' in gay nightclubs, part one" thread proved to be so popular (~400 hits in about a day!
), i figured i'd draw another 'experience' from my vast pool of, uh, 'service reports' and 'magazine routes' to share with you people.
this one is quite a bit worse.... so there i am, minding my own business, looking for one of my friends.
*LOL*...go Shadow go!

with all the escalating violence in the world today and senseless barbarism, how many people on this site are still living in any sense of security.do any of you have a bright outlook for the future of the world we now live in ?is the un the answer to world peace ?personally my out look is dim .i have seen plenty of posts about the god that will annihilate the earth by killing 99% of all people that do not follow his instructions but the way i see it is that mankind has spent the past 100 years trying to find more powerful means to destroy the population and the planet due to paranoia .can such an untrusting and suspicious species exist with such deadly arsenals at their disposal?
i believe it is just a matter of time before something gives and we are living in the mad max movie.
this is my first thread ,so be gentle and thanks for any participation.
I still worry sometimes that some idiot will press the Big Red Button by accident!

why call pedophiles "sexual terrorists?
" look into the eyes of a young child who has been a victim and you will see why.
look into the eyes and life of a grown women whose life has been scared from childhood, and hear about the hell she has had to work through.. if you could see my eyes, you would see the eyes of experience - you would see a man who, as a 5 year old boy, watched his sister raped by a pedophile - and who knew the feeling of being totally helpless.
So now the Americans will have to start bombing New York to get rid of the terrorists in Brooklyn! Excellent!
Nice post, BTW...couldn't resist that jab tho!
