it seems to be a tradition of out going presidents and governors.

I'll be a Witness when I retire.
by adjusted knowledge ini was around age 5 when my father allowed an elder and his wife into our home for a bible study.
my father never got baptized and left the religion completely when i was 12. he would tell the family that when he retires he would return to the religion.
he never went into absolutely why he left, but i think it has to do with the fact he reported an elder's daughter making out with a "worldly" guy, and it was my father that got lambasted.

Why churches should brace for a mass exodus of the faithful
by adjusted knowledge ininteresting article i found that is recent.
it focuses on catholics and mormons, but jw would fit in the arguement too.. .

The misuse of historical objects/text to prove the bible is divine
by adjusted knowledge ini had a former high school teacher post on facebook about the cyrus cylinder proving the narrative in the book of ezra and daniel.
the article i clicked on was by some christian organization that states the cylinder proves that god moved cyrus to allow the jews to go home and worship.. but no where on this cylinder does it mention the jews.
yet all these people are commenting as if it is fact.

Have you ever experience suprise by an Elder that actually showed compassion and reasoning in a judicial committee?
by adjusted knowledge insome 25 years ago when i was an active teenager in the congregation there was this elder's teenage son that acted out sexually at a young age.
the elder's son i believe was molested over a short period of time at a very young age by another elder whose wife was dying of cancer.
the reason why i suspect it is because this elder was caught and discipline "privately" for touching the breast of a 15 year girl in our congregation.

Comic Books, Collector Cards, Coloring Books, Animation.... What other tools do they plan to use to indoctrinate children?
by adjusted knowledge ini didn't realize they had comic books and collector cards for children.
it seems they rail against the world about things and then years later do the same thing.. i remember talks blasting comic books, and other similar teaching devices the local southern baptist would use.
i can recall an elder holding up a comic book about burning in hell from a local church and blasting that religion.

Have you seen other JW quote or post links to Richard Dawkins and others like him? I find it humorous.
by adjusted knowledge ini have very few active jw on my facebook, mainly the more liberal ones.
anyway a few of them have posted links or references to richard dawkins and other avowed atheists.
today a long time jw posted a link from the richard dawkins foundation blasting the celebration of easter as pagan.
