  That's not a stupid question!

  I got baptised at 15 years old and quit at 18 years old. I had my fun those 3 years I was out and never thought of ever going back.

  My cousin invited me to a special talk at a local High School by Leo Greenlees. He talked about the ''end times'' and presented a slide show about the conditions of the world. We all shook his hand like Jesus was walking the earth. I went back to attending the meetings.

  Thirty years later,I hate myself for ever going back. I now know that the WTS is just a Real Estate and Book Publishing Corporation. They are nothing but liers and false teachers who abuse their power over every member. They are not God's organisation.

  Thank you Simon for this wonderful site. We can all speak our minds without any repercussions.

  How did you feel when they let a 10 year old boy stand up on the podium and a sister couldn't ?

  one thing that really bothered me about the ministry school was letting a little boy around 10 years old read an outline and scripture.

  he faced and addressed the audience.

  he was actually teaching.

  In the meantime,you had fully grown sisters who had to have another sister with her and face each other pretending that they were having a conversation with each other. They were either in field service or conducting a book study.

  Did that ever bother you ? What does it say about what these old men of the WTS think of woman?

  so this is inspired by my favorite poet edgar allen john doe!

  sometimes we just need to say something completely goofy to relieve tension and have fun.

  Out of Left Field...Strange things you were told by elders

  by FollowerOfSet in

  just curious if the crazy was limited to my town or not.. i remember and elder, during a talk about everyone being resurrected that it included all the babies that had miscarried or were aborted, because the big j knew what their hearts were.

  after the meeting, he was telling a couple of us how it also disturbed him that his wife would have to carry someone elses babies and he would be raising someone elses children.. another elder said that we would colonize other planets, and that since the bible never said the big j didn't make other inhabited worlds that there was a whole universe of planets to colonize after armageddon.. anyone else hear crazy crap like this?.

  There is an Elder in my congregation who I feel dislikes me because I'm inactive and doesn't know what to do with me. He seems to go on his business as soon as I walk in. A couple of times as I was talking with a member of the congregation, he rudely interrupted my conversation and took the person by the shoulder and walked away as if his conversation was more important.

  Once I was talking to my mom( who is very sick and has many ailments but still makes it to some meetings)and this self-righteous Elder walks right in our conversation and makes a rude comment about me in front of my mom.

  This was the actual coversation we had to show you how self-righteous he is:

  Me:''Mom,we will come over sometime this week to visit.''

  Mom:''That's fine. We're always home"

  Self righteous Elder walks in the middle of our conversation.

  Elder:''How are you today?''

  Me:''I'm doing good.''

  Elder to my mom: ''How are you Mrs------?

  Mom: ''Well not too good......you know I have many problems with my health."

  Elder:"You may not be as physically healthy as your son but at least you have more spiritual health."

  my cousin told me last week that for the month of february she was ''pioneering''.

  here is a person who was divorced 2 years ago and had to move in with her mom because she can't afford to live on her own .she only works 4 days a week.

  she pays $600 every 2 months for health insurance because she is self-employed.

She will spend extra money on gas and probably lunch for the whole month of February pioneering all for the WTS corporation.

  Did you know someone in the similar situation?

  Yesterday morning around 10:00 a.m.,my dog was barking non- stop. I was upstairs and thought maybe a rabbit or bird was in my back yard. I looked out the back window and found nothing. He was still barking non-stop. So,I walk downstairs and see that he is facing the front door and still barking. I look out the window and see two female Witnesses with a little girl around 8 years old. ( I know that they were Witnesses because of the time,they carried book bags,and they had a car with 2 people inside waiting). They never rang my doorbell and must of knocked very lightly.

  I look out my front window and see the little girl fall down. Because of ice on my driveway and how steep it is,anyone can fall if you're not careful.They pick her up and walk back to the waiting car.

  My question is: If the little girl injured herself,could I get sued? They were uninvited onto my property and were also tresspassing. Do you know of any cases where Witnesses were injured in field service?

  Tim Kilgore vs. E-Watchman Is Wicked Gay...

  hey there folks, another one of my attention getting titles.

  i liked the charity videos but i think the most commented on video of mine is the one regarding homosexuality in nature.

  e-watchman made a video response to the video which fell right into one of the stereotype answers i've gotten a hundred times on the video.

  It's hard watching E-Watchman. His hairpiece is so bad that I can't listen to all his drabble!

  The WTS will never have ''new light'' on shunning policy.

  watchtower society will never be blessed with "new light" on their policy of extremist shunning of former members, thereby liberating thousands-both within and out of the organization from the heart-sickening anguish imposed by this cruel, unjust, and unscriptural dogma..

  How does the WTS explain how the battle of Armageddon will be fought?

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  armageddon is a battle in which satan unites the kings of the earth against god's appointed king, christ.. the witnesses teach that the bible uses megiddo as the "symbolic" place of gathering of all the kings of the earth, where they will try to do battle against god and his forces.. it sounds so silly to me now that god and his forces would battle satan?

  if god is so powerful,wouldn't he make satan and his demons just disappear?

  does god need a sword,rocket,fist,or army tanks to destroy satan?.

  I don't remember how the WTS explain how this battle would be fought. Is there any information on this silly war?
