My sister drew a lawn mower in front of him, looked great. His front claws look just like he is holding the handle of the mower and he looks like he is pushing it. Good times. It looked like this.

Be effective or people will die
by Odrade inmy husband and i have been out of the org for quite some time, but still find that old ideas and values come up and bite us on the ass.. lately, i've been plagued by an increase in the frequency and severity of my nightmares (which have always been an issue,) so i've begun to dream journal.
in just a few days, this realization cropped up.
i can't save people.. i've been blogging again recently.

In addition: I asked a CO once while at Pioneer School, "to what degree does Jehovah draw people compared to how much our presentation matters?" He said, "I shutter to think". I thought, what an idiot. Jehovah "draws those whose hearts are upright with him". I also understood that they have to be "rightly disposed to everlasting life". In addition that "Jehovah opens thier hearts". So what was I but a messenger and a canvassing agent anyway. I never bought into the whole "its on me" thinking. The self importance that is implied by thinking we are pivotal is part of the imprisonment of mind they tried to feed us. Its part of what made us believe we were better than others because "we alone had the Truth."

The Awake Faithful and Discreet Slave July 15, 1960 WT
by berrygerry ingreat stuff.. .
overwhelming credentials.
25 does the faithful and discreet slave class have any more credentials?

What was once "overwhelming credentials" is merely a list of scriptures today. How easily they can delete crucial doctrines with the wave of a hand. Frauds.

It must be a benefit of not being born in. I never bought that we were so critical to the salvation of others. I figured it was busy work and that we were just there to kickstart whatever Jehoobies was doing. So I guess I have never had to "get over myself" about it. I did do my best to be the best at it though, that sort of self respect I did have. Converted six people in 5 years. (Bows and waves a victory wave) Whoop'dee doo.

At This Point In Time Would You Ever Subject Yourself To A Judicial Committee?
by minimus ini certainly wouldn't.
and if the elders wanted to have a meeting with me, i would respectfully decline.
if the elders wanted to deal with you, would you talk with them?.

Apparently the Grand Jury thought so and thats the system that protects us all from the court of public opinion when it works. My opinion? It worked this time. I will add it would have been better if the stepdad had chanted, "we will sue in civil court" instead of "Burn this B++ch down!".

Just when you think you're past it all...
by Phaedra inyou"re now the "unbelieving mate" who is now pursuing your degree just before your mid-life crisis hits because until you woke up to the tatt, you bought into the whole "you'll never grow older in this system of things...".
you're watching your parents grow old fully-invested.... your spouse still invested because "there is no better alternative....".
your in-laws still won't come over tomorrow (thanksgiviing day) to eat turkey because it might just look like.... just when you think you're past it all and you feel that little bit of jw that is still there at your core eventhough you think you're beyond jwism..... and you remember and empathize and love your loved ones just a little bit more... because as of yet, they cannot find it in them to distance themselves from somethign you found limiting, closing, dark, and oppressive.. may they all find their freedom one day.

When loved ones mistreat us its very hard. I feel for you. Keep loving them because reason isn't what they are after. Only love for someone else will break through because only then will what you say crack the facade of the old NY gangsters. If it even will, still up to them. Enjoy your dinner and Happy New Year, Birthday and Good Luck! There I said it, lol.

When JW's say, "the farther we get from Adam..." to explain Autism, illness etc. is it just denial?
by Wasanelder Once ini am so sick of hearing jw's blame everything from autism to hangnails on our proxemity to the existence of no-navel-man adam.
they thereby betray their own lack of personal responsibility for their poor physical and mental health on adam.
just maybe a little more work to afford a doctor visit once in a while wouldn't hurt?

Or stop driving around all day in a crappy car eating junk food, get off your butt and acutally walk? My opinion is that they have this magical Adam complex where they blame everything on him and again deny personal responsibility. What have you experienced with this mindset?
