Thinking it through and not liking the result.
by donny intoday at work a co-worker of mine and i were having lunch at a nearby establishment.
he is what you would call a c&e christian in that he basically attends church only for the christmas and easter services, though he definitely says he believes in god.. he said that he just recently caught an episode of a crime/forensic show that featured a man from new jersey named john list who was also known locally as the "bogeyman of westfield.
" list became infamous for murdering his entire family consisting of his wife, three children and his mother on november 9, 1971. see below link for more data.. on the tv show the narrator commented there were a few reasons why he did it.

Surreal experience last night.
by objectivetruth inrecently a jw friend that my wife & i knew 3 years ago added me on facebook, after i accepted the request she invited me to a dinner that her and her husband are holding next month.. i imagined that she was unaware of our apostasy, so i declined the invitation on the basis of not wanting to ruin her dinner after the rest of her guests fled at our presence.. i'm never sure how old friends will react when i tell them that i'm no longer a jw.. usually their response is "..... permanent-silence......".
her response went something like this, " we are all out!
everyone that is coming is out we all look forward to seeing you guys so much" it turns out that there will be 6 people at the dinner all friends of ours from a congregation that we attended a few years back.. they have all left the organization recently.. pretty crazy experience..

I know 2 of the Elders on the Ray Franz JC
by James Jackson inwhen i read coc, i was stunned that the 2 elders (theotis french & rob dibble) were on ray franz judcial committee.
i have known these men for over 20 years having done rbc and convention work with them.
they are still elders today which means they were in their early 30's(which is unheard of for a case of this importance to have inexperienced elders to sit on) on this committee.. without revealing myself, i have never tried(but have wanted to), ask them about their on having to judge a former gb member.. then out of the blue, about a year ago, i was mentioning how hard it is trying to get younger ones to volunteer to one of these elders, and he says"this is nothing compared to to sitting on the committee that had to disfellowship ray franz".

Something Big is Coming...
by notsurewheretogo inthe annual meeting of the governing body of jehovah's witnesses will be in october 2014.. .. in november 2013, just after the last one they published this now famous statement in the 15th of november 2013 watchtower page 16 paragraph 17 says:.
"at that time, the lifesaving direction that we receive from jehovahs organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint.
all of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.".

Congregation Pledge Disgusted Elder
by rrb2016 inat the meeting the other night, the elder who had to read the announcements, which included the $$ info for the new donation arrangement seemed downright disgusted as he read the announcements and asked for the vote.
he said, "well, here is another organizational change" as he read the letter about the discontinuation of the 2nd meeting during co visit.
then after they voted, he said if you have any questions ask this other elder as if he wanted nothing to do with it.

Need some help from you guys
by bobert inso recently i've been preparing to move out of my parents house, and i've been seeking social assistance.
at my appointment, my social worker asked me for references to people who know about my situation at home.
i know probably nnone of you guys know me too well personally, or my home life, but i know all of you guys have been through similar situations.

Bobert ;..you have mentioned, social assistance and social worker.
Social workers in UK are usually assigned to specific situations, ie personal problems relating to self or family situations.
Perhaps you need to be more specific as to your need for help from those on this forum.
Do you for example need support to corroborate certain behaviour negative to you being unable to remain in your home, ie jw attitudes and religious discrimination which makes it impossible to remain at home?
Unfortunately if this is the case apart from sympathetic understanding empathy for your plight, it is probably those that would have first hand knowledge of your situation that would hold any sway with your social worker.
I wish you a positive outcome.

Just had a conversation with a jw at the trolley/cart.
Me;..you have a strong faith in the organisation being that you believe its led by the FDS.
He;...I wouldn't say I have a strong faith as their not a perfect org'.
Me;...so when as you believe jesus chose them by inspection in 1919, would you say he knew most of their teachings at that time were not only wrong but absolutely contrary to scriptural teaching as the consequent changes to understanding of these teachings has changed ?
He;..eh well do you believe in god?
Me;..I'd like to hear your opinion of the organisation which you believe jesus chose to represent jehovah and provide the proper food to his people on earth?
He;..do you believe in god?
Me;...please check jwfacts.com to find out what kind of organisation you say you dont have a strong faith in.
I hope he does!!
