i may go to the kh to hear it myself...i want to make sure i go on the right date though....can't stomach more than 1 visit.

does anyone know when they will cover that article?.

coffee

I like that Coffee, I thought about going, but I know for a fact that if I raised my hand for a comment they would not call on me. They have already been shunning me though I am not DF'd yet. If you go try to tape it somehow, we could all use the laugh.

What Bethelites Are Saying About The Layoffs

by wanda in

for those who have friends there or who just left there, what is being said about this?

IronClaw

Does anyone have the actual numbers? I've heard 1500, 2500 etc. Has there been anything in print yet? Anyway to confirm the numbers or is the Borg keeping it under the radar.

OK, I't My Turn As The Newbie

i'm not sure where to start, probably in two major areas.

mechanics thing, that can't work, and what i see as the lack of true love in the brotherhood.

i've been in "the truth" or lack thereof, for about 30 years, give or take a little.

IronClaw

It's been about eight months since I've been to a meeting. After eight months, how many people do you think have called me to see if I was dead or alive

Welcome, I can relate to this, Its been well over a year for me, and yet no calls or visits. Sad isn't it. Looking forward to more of your posts.

JW hypocrisy

by rick1199 in

i am trying to build a list of hipocrisy with in the borg.

i dont mean things like the un scandal as people in the hall wont have heard of that, but smaller stuff that goes on all the time with out the rank and file noticing.

infant baptism.

IronClaw

Infant baptism? I was baptized at 8 years old. My friends in the congregation were baptized from age 10-12. A child of that age, whatever the level of understanding, is not mature enough to make a decision of that nature that will effect the rest of their lives. How old was Jesus when he was baptized? Ummmmmm.....30!

I agree with you Coffee,

Danny the WT always says that they follow Jesus as a MODEL. So as Coffee brought out, how old was he?? Lets look at this a little closer. If any child was ready for baptizm at age 12 it would of been Jesus. Just where did his parents find him at 12 yrs of age. Preaching in the Synagogue. I doubt any 12 year old today is ready to handle preaching in a church to the Leaders of said church. Im not saying that one has to be 30 yrs old, but I think one should be of mature enough age to make such a serious decision. Would you let a 12 yr old get married? I dont think so. I was baptized at 14, what a mistake that was. I did it not because I was mature enough, I did it like most JW's because eveybody else in the congo was doing it. I dont recall any child baptizm's in the scriptures.

I had heard information like this on the Coast to Coast Am radio program a while back, the guest speaker on that night was talking about Illuminati's and mentioned the Mormons and JW's, and how they got their start. Interesting, very Interesting.
