Some basic physics:
? Ease of adjusting after leaving WT
is inversely proportional to
the distance travelled in time living with JW family/relatives.
? Degree of adjustment after leaving WT
is directly proportional to
the distance travelled in time since leaving WT.
Synopsis:
Jumping into the ?big pool? on a hot day will cool you down suddenly and rapidly. However, after a short time you feel warm enough to relax from the shock but cooled down enough to feel refreshed.

by metatron inclearly, there is every earmark of financial worries within the watchtower society.. even governing body members have expressed concern about falling contribution levels.
within congregations.

?proplog2?:
I don't believe in ALL alien stories. But I had an experience with a fly over of a UFO craft. . . . I have always been casually interested in UFO's.
Let me guess?you bought the complete episode collection of The X-Files. Some of your narration sort of reminds me of Fox Mulder and Dana Scully.
The death of the Soviet Union = Slaughter of the seventh head of the Rev. 13 beast.
The appearance of the revived beast as a tame lamb. The re-emergence of the true nature of Russia - totalitarian regime determined to dominate the world.
Correct me if I?m wrong, but according to the book Revelation?Its Grand Climax At Hand!, isn?t the seventh head of the wild beast really the dual Anglo-American world power, which received a ?death stroke? but revived, and which also corresponds with the two-horned wild beast (that seems like a lamb and speaks ?grandiose things,? but acts like a dragon)? So how do you relate that to the former Soviet Union? I thought that was simply one of the manifestations of the King of the North.

According to Aritha Van Herk in Mavericks: An Incorrigible History of Alberta , as quoted in the post by ?jgnat?:
Alberta is . . . a province that truly believes in free speech. Albertans tolerate in their midst people whose extreme views on any manner of subjects would make them outcasts elsewhere.
So, how could it be the case that ?NO FOX NEWS CHANNEL...it's banned?? I thought Canada was a most ?enlightened? country.

Okay, people! I think we all need some theocratic direction here. So, altogether now:
[In a ?Knights Who Say ?Nit!? ? march:] Leeeeeeeets Watch how we walk, aaaaaand, Watch how we talk, [Now prancing around like Austin Powers wearing a faggoty doublet:] aaaaaand stumble none in our miiiiin - iiiii - stryyyyy! . . . Duuuuumb - dee - dumb - dee - dumb, dumb, dumb, dee . . . duuuuumb - dee - dumb - dee - dumb, dumb, dumb.
[Good! Good! Wooooonderful! Okay, repeat and rinse until sufficiently happy ... or puke (whichever comes first).]

A double-lifer. . (but I believed it all whole-heartedly. I was sure I wouldn't be in the 'new system').
That fits me to a ?T? (thus my alias name, which means ?Sinned Against the Holy Spirit?).
You were a normal "bad" boy.
Same as me . . . except in my case, I was not ?a normal ?bad? boy.?

What Flip-Flop teachings/beliefs do you think will come back?
by JH inoften the jw taught something, and came back a few years later to teach just the opposite.
example: will the men of sodom be resurrected?.

I?m not sure which teachings the WT might bring back, but I know which teaching they will NOT be bringing back: that the great tribulation has already started to occur.
Can you imagine what would happen if they ever came out and said, ?We hereby declare that the cry of ?peace and security? has already happened to sufficient degree, and that now the great tribulation has, in fact, begun.? Well, if they ever came out with that again these days, then people would be expecting armageddon to begin, and finish, within a fairly narrow time span. No more of this, ?Well, we?ve gotta give it more time. We?ve been in the great tribulation for [10, 20, 50, 100+ ?] years now, so I?m sure armageddon will start soon.? No, sir. Years ago, they did say that the great tribulation had already started, but if they ever said it now, then people would expect armageddon to start fairly soon?or else, they would say, ?Okay, that?s enough!?
If people have already been waiting 100 years for the great tribulation, surely nobody would wait another 100 years for armageddon!

We weren't allowed to have Barbie dolls because my mom thought they were anatomically correct.
I guess you also wouldn?t have been able to have any pets (especially something like an unneutered bull dog or great dane). Don?t you know, there?s nothing more ?correct? than God?s own creations!

I personally don't put organizations on the same level as humans. That's a trick of the business world with their corporations. Organizations have no brains or heart.
I?m so glad to hear you say this. Although I don?t agree with much of your perspectives, I agree with this specific quote of yours, and I think it?s important for people to be aware that the WTBTS Incorporated is exactly that?an inanimate organization. It is not a human, nor does it share the same emotional or rational qualities of most people.
People should personally weigh the evidence?all the evidence?as to whether or not it may be ?God?s only true organization,? but nobody should idolize either the organization or any of its leaders because such idolatry would really be contraindicated in the Scriptures.
I don?t mean any unwarranted disrespect for any people comprising the ?Society,? but at the same time, I really disdain the idea of people feeling compelled to pay a visit to the WT headquarters in New York like pilgrims flocking to a sort of holy ?Mecca,? being over-awed by the experience of seeing ?God?s temple,? and thrilled by the prospect of possibly seeing one of the actual FDS members in the flesh. Any such ?theocratic groupies? should step back and consider the whole picture . . . and not be so ?awed? at something which seems to have a propensity for being ?flawed.?
Oh BTW, I apologize if I seemed to unfairly characterize you as a ?troll??at least in the complete sense of the term, anyway. Your contributions, albeit controversial, do add, um, ?colour? to the mix.

Of course, you could slip some ads into the literature.
Actually, the organization did put advertisements into their magazines back around the Russell/Rutherford era?and some of the things they were advertising (such as certain ?heath remedies?) were as nutty and ridiculous as anyone could imagine!
