  Next FDS Stunt?

  by sweet pea in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  shopoholic is of the opinion that friday's dc talk about obeying/following the faithful and (not so) discreet slave no matter what, is indicative of some dramatic stunt the fds are about to pull.

  .

  any suggestions as to what this might be?

  I awoke from a dream... the ghost of Fred Franz visited me and told me - each month every JW willl be required to sign a statement of loyalty in order to receive the latest Watchtower. I told Fred's ghost thanks for the timely light. The ghost disappeared with a whimper, which sounded like "suckers".

  Is the Watchtower magazine's stated circulation actually erroneous?

  i just changed my order of magazines at the counter to the bare minimum.

  me, my dad, my friends, heck everybody i know throws out a large bag of unused watchtowers and awakes every few months or at least once a year.

  then it hit me.

  Orgull-

  If you show up, and they call on you to give the talk, just stand up and repeat after me, "I was too busy posting on JWD to prepare the part." Then split with your wallet and keys, leaving all their crap behind. You'll be a free soul!

  German KM 09/07 Translated! Watchtower cracks down on study groups.

  here is the best that i could do, but i think it gets the main points of the articles across.

  i wouldn't bet my life on this translation, but i think it is good enough for our purposes.

  question box.

  In the beginning God created the Faithful and Discrete Slave in Brooklyn New York. The Faithful and Discrete Slave was with God, and was a god.

  i must apoligize to many of you wonderful friends here for having been tardy in getting back to everyone.. it has been quite a rollercoster for me, and i am just trying to take life one day at atime.

  i have moments when i feel more sorrow than other days.

  i have some great friends who have supported me during some of these rougher days.. i recieved many cards of condolances.

  I had no idea there were people who felt like me

  i've recently begun challenging my beliefs.

  all my beliefs, including those ingrained in me as one raised "in the truth".. a few years ago i sought therapy for chronic depression and my treatment was remarkably successful.

  as a side effect, things that used to "work" for me no longer fit with the new emotional pathways and strengths i was developing.

  we have all seen the negatine aspects of the jw's shunning da/df people.

  i have experienced the hardship emotionally of being cut off from friends and family that are still in the organization.

  i do not minimize how much this hurts.. but .

  I was billy clubbed near the White House, and I picketed Buckingham Palace with a Burger King hat. Not impotent, but who remembers at 83?

  this guy is as sick, if not sicker, than the watchtower.

  the depth of his delusion with himself is amazing.

  I know a follower of his; this guy is truly certifiable. Ranting and raving prophecy and fulfillments in the same breath; his wife left, and he's still not aware of the fact.

  dogmatic statement on e-watchman

  by Dr Zhivago in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  over on e-watchman's forum there was a discussion about the harlot riding the beast of revelation.

  one poster stated that because the harlot was riding the beast it proved she was in control of the beast.

  now, i grew up on a farm and we had all sorts of animals.

  Terry-

  Great points! Just like "the blues had a baby, and they named it rock and roll." More hucksters to come, book publishing is a craze.
