i always thought it was ironic how often they preached against this sort of thing from the platform, then were out in the parking lot trying to sell it to you.
tons of elders defrauding folks this way..

<---------disregarding Farkel...except for the "reverence" part: much deserved on my part, and far past overdue for his finally recognizing my supreme and pre-eminent stature in the ex-JW community. Let others beware, lest they suffer the same painful fate that Farkel just experienced.
Now that I've disposed of that pathetic stinking beetle-ridden carcass...back to topic:
Homerovah:
Around here, there were two congregations that had a "rep" for money: Lake Oswego, and then Tigard. It was almost a given that if you attended the LO cong, then you had, or had access to, money. Tigard was sort of a yuppie thing: lots of young guys, vying to make the bucks, and wanting to get shoulder-to-shoulder with LO. Both got caught up in the MLM thing(s), with disappointing results.

roflmao @ Farkel.
I can't recall that I've ever been called a nitwit, moron, and stupid twit, all in one post!
And the name of the medication is Thorazine, you non-spell-checking incompetent idiot dipf***.

Fark:
The JW Cult and culture is evil, it breeds evil, it foments evil, it cannot help (due to its nature) but produce a lot of evil, period.
I must take exception.
Certainly there is, and always will be, a sector of the JWs (and any other religion, for that matter), that "eats its young" (a phrase I first heard, btw, when I was working at a billion-dollar construction company).
However, in my own admittedly limited experience, that aspect was fairly uncommon at the KH.
happy new year to all :)
so i'm curious if anyone has further info/dirt on jaracz or any other gb members (former or current).
i know jaracz was publicly accused of molesting a young girl (now an adult).
Someone very close to me was accosted by Ted Jaracz. I can't say more.
Farkel also asked me to post that he has no first-hand information about Pat Garza.
with the increase in evangelical churches there seems to be a lot more emphasis on the practise of "speaking in tongues".
i quite like the way these churches conduct services, with live music and great singing.
it is so different to the kh meetings and like fresh air.
Stephen, does your wife know what she is saying when she is speaking in tongues? Does the congregation? Do you?
If in the affirmative for any of the above: What language? And what is said?
they've finally given me medication - i am on a low dosage now, usually its 20mg but i am 10mg to see how it goes and then step it up in a week if i feel i need more, but sometimes it can take a month before your body tells you whats happening anyway.. whoo.. had my first tablet this morning, didnt feel brilliant but at least i know i'm not rolling on the floor and stuff lol..
KW, nomb, but is it Lithium? I ask only because a fellow I grew up with had bipolar, and went through up and down cycles, primarily because he'd feel normal for awhile and stop taking the Lithium. As far as I know, it was a relatively simple supplemental treatment to compensate for an endemic/genetic deficiency, with no overt side affects (anyone, please correct me if I'm wrong).
oompa, how are you doing? Not to press you on this, but are you taking the necessary steps to deal with your own challenges?
edit to add: KW, our posts crossed. Is the med you're taking related to Lithium?
anyone able to give any insight on this scripture.
i havent read the entire bible yet, but working my way through it when i found this scripture.
the chapter describes how jacob / israel gathers all 12 of his sons and then in turn commands and blesses each one.. but vs 4 has me scratching my head.
Concubine, wife, sister, "significant other"...whatever. And Judah went a-whoring too.
What a fine family tradition the Bible portrays.
.............it's been ages.
i thought i'ld drop in and see who was still around from the old school and how many newbies are here.
good to see people are still leaving the wts.
Howdy Bliss!
Long time, no see.
When are you going to get out of the sticks and move to a developed society...like America?
LOL
there has been some rumour that the growth in most developed countries comes from imigrants.
while this has been stated by cos and dos it is now official in germany.
the kingdom ministry for february 2008 states that in germany there are 36,000 foreign publishers in 531 congregations und 272 groups.
"Merck" is what a lot of Brits and Canucks and Aussies and Euros affectionately designate us "Americans." LOL
I'll take a shot at posting there...at the very least, some of you can have some good sport with my pathetic attempts at speaking German.
