Every time I have ever heard them give a talk at an assembly I had the feeling those in attendance were sub-consciously worshipping these loons. I felt squeamish each time those in attendance would applaud to each and every shuffle of his white shoes and changing of his hips while he barked of his platitudes and wonderment at all their accomplishments in Patterson or in some other building complex. How come I could see right off they were nothing more than shysters, but it seemed nobody else in that whole dam arena could but only me?

Idea of respecting the Governing Body is just a Satire.

Sisters prohibited from beinng called on to pray during meetings.
by Leprechaun ini must say that the witness idea about women not being allowed to pray out loud in the congregation is just bunk, the bible students let their women pray all the time, i asked them why they do this in light of the witnesss not doing it, he said do you think the prayer of a women is any less important to jehovah god.
i must say again the witnesss strain at the nat and seek to pervert basic teachings of gods word when they give their reason that prayer whhen a sister is doing it is a "form teaching.
" ( and your point?

( And your point?) Jesus seen fit to let himself be seen first by women, I think that is a pretty good indication that they hold some clout.

Tell the ''Governing Body'' one thing that you've always wanted them to know!
by RULES & REGULATIONS inthe only reason you have total control over all of your members is your false ''faithful and discreet slave'' scripture.
this scripture was applied only for your benefit.
without this scripture your whole religion would fall..

Instead of being submissive to God alone, JWs are submissive to the Governing Body of the Watch Tower (or Watchtower) Society. Criticism and debate are prohibited and classified as apostate, demonic, pornographic. They equate questioning of the organization with Satan’s rebellion against God, while actually accusing the questioner of hubris! Amazing. There is no discussion of how this Governing Body actually gets its direction from God, but to question them is to question God; it’s unthinkable for the average JW to do so.
For all their “anti-worldly” talk, the Watchtower Society has built a lucrative publishing empire with a dedicated sales force of unpaid associates - an unquestioning set of followers to spread the memes.

I wish you pin head would have informed me at a young age that it was expected that I do everything for free and spend my own money for your stupid magazines and books, I should have went to school and became an attorney. The Bible Students that you broke away from at least make sense. What a stupid Cult.

No shit! I have a brother in law bless his heart goes to meetings even though he is dying from cancer and is taking KEMO, and most of the time he still goes to the meetings, that isn’t commendable or “well spoken of” it’s just plain stupid. 2009-04-29

should Elders be held resposible......................
by KAYTEE inshould elders be held financially responsible for actions and decisions that they get wrong?
in my very last congregation we needed some form of heating, in the body of elders there was no air condition expertise at all.. this did not stop them buying a 3,500 unit for this purpose, there was at the time two refrigeration engineers in the hall (myself and another), we were not approached for our input into this purchase.. the outcome was as usual a complete white elephant, it did not work.
3,500 pounds lost.

Witness's seem more like Robots than humans...
by Leprechaun inyeah witness's seem to me to be more like robots than humans, just watch them when your around them everything is programed that they say, its weird the only time i personaly ever seen anything closely like it were the "pligs" in hilldale utah and saint george utah.
you can't get a stright answer from them with out it being scripted from their magazines.
i feel sorry for them i really do, i was raised a witness untill the past fifteen years or so, the term borg fits well, if you go to one of their conventions it is a lot like going to an amway convention they mostly act like they are in a drunken bliss.

I live in the state of Utah presently, oh the Robots are tight here but I guess they are that way everywhere. Yup Sunday was my birthday I am now fifty five years old, and to think of all the birthdays I missed without a birthday cake or a lap dance or something just Erk’s me bad. My mom whom I watch over because of her age bless her hart she is eighty nine years old and she uses the tie in with the phone to hear the meetings, sometimes hearing it gives me projectile vomitus and causes the blood to squirt out of my eyes when I hear them counsel those in attendance to not have oral sex or they will be summarily kicked out or at the very least chastised severely ninety five times. Oh I’ll tell you, I think of all these fools who just sit there in the hall and listen to this crap like its coming from god himself so politely with their kids I would like to get a megaphone and place up next to their ears and yell wake up and smell the cat food. I wonder how many people from Ogden Utah visit this site and if there are a few then well”, hello remember me I am Shane, I am realy not as bad as they the elders say I am. Hootie Hoo

The last one I attended I was setting their in the Dee Events center and they were having the ones who were to be babtized hear a special talk before they get dunked, and then the speaker spoke about the GB like it was in the bible you know the part where they ask if you repent of your sins and accept Jesus Christ as your lord well I guess you have to agree out loud that the GB is gods mouth here on earth and that we have to do what they say or die. Well as soon as I heard that, well that's when I said loud and clear "Oh bull shit! And this guy and his wife looked at me and he said to me "yeah really" and we all got up to leave together, and I never went back. I must admit I remember hearing them say that before in the past but when your involved with the Witness's you don't honestly hear the crap or see and understand just how bogus it is. It's my birthday today someone wish me happy birthday.

Oh wow man, I just tell the elders the GB or anyone else who wears the color of the big cheese in the kingdom hall to just pound sand. Once they feel they can shiver your timbers they will keep messing with you.

did anyone on here ever have a paedophile in thier congregation?
by looloo inif so, did it bother you that he had been reprooved and forgiven rather than reported to the police?
-
Leprechaun
Yes I remember when my ex-wife ran off with a sticking pedophile SOB, and he molested my 12 year old daughter, my two daughters I had at that time talked with the elders and the prominent ones said to them don't talk about it with anyone, we don't want to bring reproach on the society and that was all they did for them.
