An elder told a sister I had a bad attitude, but he didn't have the courage to tell me personally. I showed up unannonced at an elders house when this elder was there, and stormed right in. I think they crapped their pants!!! It's hard to have a good attitude to people who constantly abuse others, whether in the family or congregation, glad I had my say. You only can take so much WT--BS.

Were You Ever Counseled For Your Attitude or Because You Didn't Measure Up?
by minimus inone thing jws do, and especially elders, is counsel people.
everything is all about setting a person straight.
even bible students are conditioned to be counseled and to do the same toward any that ask them questions as to what they believe.

Tacoma Dome Parking Scandal
by VM44 inremember the tacoma dome parking scandal?.
it was reported a few years ago that the wt would charge witnesses for parking at the tacoma dome even though the contract with the dome stated that no parking charges were to be made.
of course the people in the kingdom halls were not told that, only reminded to be sure to pay for their parking!.

I remember thinking it was strange to "pay" for parking tickets at a District convention at Amherst Ma.(Mullins center) years ago. Especially since the parking lot was mostly dirt and it was quite a hike.

JW's and Unemployment benefits
by PopeOfEruke inthe wt society is so proud in promoting the notion that all jw's are so law-abiding and how they pay all their taxes.. yet there seems to be no moral problem for them when a jehovahs witness elder can be a full-time regular pioneer and at the same time collect unemployment benefits.
and not just in the short-term but in one case the elder has been a full-time pioneer for many years, all the while collecting unemployment benefits from the government.. so if there are any active brothers or sisters reading this post, could you please explain to me how this is not dishonest, just as dishonest as not paying taxes?
why are jw's the biggest 2-faced hypocrites around?.

I knew an elder and his wife (full time pioneers) who had no medical Insurance. They would let the state pay for their medical bills since their income was so low. So, the world which the Jw's condemns is good enough to support thier ministry. Leeches!!!

If JWs are still around in a hundred years, what will they be preaching?
by True North inif the jw org makes it another hundred years, what will they be preaching then?
how will their chronology and doctrines have changed?
if there are colonies on the moon or other moons, or mars, or out among the asteroids, will they still be reporting time in the house-to-house (pod-to-pod?

They'll be saying the last days started in 2034.
DNA from some of the last annionted will have been saved and cloned. This will allow faithful 18 yr old virgins to carry the exact replicia of the last annointed in their wombs. This will give birth to a never ending class of annointed.
A multi-billion $$$$ complex will be built next to Disney in Orlando, which will house the writing committee. They will be proclaiming that Russell, Rutherford, and Knorr are going to arriving from the dead and will appear soon in the flesh. All Jw's will get a discounted pass at Disney if they identify themself as a Jw.( please do not use Universal Studios, Sea World, or any other parks since they are not on the approved vacation list.)

Another nite at work, thinking how to get the elders back...
by dustyb ini remember a post a few days ago titled "have you ever gotten back at the congregation/elders" or somethin like that.
and now.....i think i have the answer.
all these elders think they can go around, saying their shit doesn't stink and disfellowship anyone who disagree's with them or the organization, or if they "get ahead of jehovah".

My wife works were an elder cleans. He is a real winner. Sometimes my son needs a diaper change. We are both D'fed, which he knows, so we leave him a little present. If it was anyone else I'd take it home.

Locking the doors durring the meetings
by Elsewhere inhave you ever attented meetings at a kh where they locked the doors once the meeting began?
i've attended a few in my life.. if you're late you have to knock on the door and be recognized through the peep-hole before they will unlock the door.. they usually joke that it's like noah's ark... once the doors close you're screwed.. .
yup... by their fruits you will know them.

A C.O. locked the doors after the field service meeting started to embarrass all those late by letting them stand outside. Real loving. It would have made me turn around and go home.

Is the WTs God's chosen or a phoney? PROVE IT!

When vaccines became widely available, how can you say that the WTs enlightened when they denied the rank and file to benefit for years. Does not sound very enlightening to me. Same for organ transplants. "God's people" suffered unnessarily because of their loyalty to the WT.
