Remember Tim there are different forms of love in the WT world. The disfellowshiping love is based on principle and is not based on emotion. They feel that you have chosen to disregard Jehovah's law and thus are in need of a sort of "Tough" love. It's warped and not effective but it is considered a form of love by many. You can hold it against them or just move on. They think they are doing good. Sadly so. Live your life and just don't look back. Anyone who walks beside you will tap your shoulder. That's the love you should keep close.

The organisations love failed! (1 Corinthians 13:8)
by TimothyT intoday, a sister in my congregation told me that she could never abandon me because i have been disfellowshipped.
when she told me that she feels such a powerful driving force telling her she cannot leave me, it really made feel very warm and very close to her.
when i told my dad, he said to me that the force compelling her is the most powerful force in the universe: love!

short experience about my uber JW family and neighborhood block party
by cult classic inshe has been out in field service with her family and goes on to tell me of all the spiritual activities they have planned for the fall.
all of her children are homeschooled and pioneering.
she actually said, "well maybe i will send them over, but they have rehearsal for the special assembly day program.

These movies were the spectacles of their day. They hold up well as just that in my opinion. All the songs became standards and are imbedded in our collective musical consciousness, if you grew up with oldies on tv like I did. My dad, 83, loved the old movies and I saw them all. Thanks for your expressions. I did love those movies. We recently got TCM and are in love with it!

Latest Watchtower Micromanagement
by metatron ini noticed that the koolaid/study issue of the watchtower now contains directed scripture citations in bold letters, such as:.
"read 1 corinthians 5:2".
i suppose this is consistent with all the other trends in watchtower-land, especially with their new brochure for the illiterate and mentally challenged, "listen to god".

It's not the first time they've done this. There have been issues in the past, in the once public/kool aid version, where they wanted to make sure certain verses were read and discussed. They know that some WT conductors tend to head in a direction they think is the main point and miss out on the specific thought of the scripture. The "Read" direction is so that it is read out loud during the congregation study of the material. Nothing to write home about. It's old news.

Steal his 401K, run off with his wife or make him join JW's for 35 years and then tell him about the U.N. connection!

That just tells you what part of the convention is your conductor's favorite; the motel, the pool, the restaurants and shopping. That's because the convention is the only vacation most get all year!
