  Brilliant and Funny - The Book of Mormon

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  about 15 of 'us' - all but one a former jw, and most either familiar with this board or currently posters here - attended the play in the chicago theater district last night.

  what a hoot!

  according to the geniuses [the same guys who did south park] who were behind the production, it targetted mormons on the way to poking fun at all religious delusion.. it was a great play, great actors, and wonderful props.

  Will the Watchtower Society benefit from the looming financial collapse?

  by redvip2000 in

  if you have your eyes and ears open and can put 2 and 2 together, you have like many of us, have figured out that there is an impending financial collapse in the united states.

  the type of financial collapse that likely has never been seen.. whether you believe this is being done intentionally by global power hungry groups bent on bringing us to our knees, in order to push their agenda, or whether it is being done out of carelessness and stupidity is hardly relevant at this point.. the writing is on the wall.

  experts (and all who want to) can see it , high level officials expect it, and are already implementing the contingencies that are needed in order handle the civil unrest that will ensue.

  First [brief] conversation w/elder for years

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in my area, i am labeled an 'active apostate', among other things i am sure.

  i live in a very small town, and bump into elders who hate me beyond words.

  if they could, i am sure they would gladly stone me before the entire villiage while chanting 'apostate, apostate.'.

  after leaving the jehovah's witnesses, i started getting in to politics.

  i naturally found myself going republican and voted a long those lines.

  Interesting District Convention News.....

  by Pyramid Scheme in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i wanted to share some news from a family friend (he is my wt mole - still an elder, hates the shenanigans, but is still hanging on for all the reasons often discussed on this site) i know the various rumors have been discussed on here, and unfortunately the rumor about the conventions being eliminated weren't true!

  (what a burden on the jw community - financial hardship for a good portion of them, guilting people into actually quitting their job to attend, physically exhausting for many, etc...etc......).

  anyway, he told me that the district convention is being moved to 11 weekends at the jw-owned circuit assembly hall, and they are no longer planning on renting stadiums/large facilities in our area (northern ohio/southern michigan).

  Survey: Who here is an atheist? Who here still believes in God?

  by Christ Alone in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i just wanted to take a survey.

  let's not let this get into the same old same old debate of atheism vs belief.

  just respond with "atheist" or "believer" or "maybe god exists".

  Is CoC out of print?

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  today i was looking for my copy of coc, and unfortunately it has come up missing in action.

  perhaps i lent it to someone and forgot to whom.

  whatever the reason, i began an online search for a copy to replace mine - and lo and behold, the copies i found available were priced from $35 or higher, and those places that advertised it at a lesser cost had it marked 'unavailable'.. i am not worried about replacing my copy - i have read it several times.
