CoCo- This is totally a satire on the JW video- produced most probably by an EX-JW to get people thinking. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

Caleb and Sophia Video Mashup to Hard Knock Life
by Wild_Thing ini thought this video was pretty well done and mildly entertaining to watch.. on another note, i am really hoping some clever ex-jws will do their own animation series with caleb and sophia as young adults trying to leave the org.
that would be awesome.

Great point you make Gemmel. I have some aging JW siblings still in the Witnesses , some who are going through health problems. As an EX- JW I'm very conservative with my money - however some of my JW older siblings are not. I would imagine they still think the " end " is coming, but in another 10 or 15 years, they'll all be firmly in their 80's - I wonder what they'll be thinking then. The WT Society is evil in that they've made SO much money off of older JW's who were given these false hopes of " living forever in a paradise earth " - to me it has always been just a marketing tool used by WT leaders to extort millions of $$$$ from aging JW's ! Pretty disgusting and sad

It’s My Anniversary!
by jp1692 intoday is the four year anniversary of the last time i set foot in a kingdom hall.
it was the day of the kool-aid issue of the wt!
“at that time, the life-saving direction that we receive from jehovah’s organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint.

Are JWs capable of a genuine discussion?
by stuckinarut2 ini was just pondering whether jws are capable of having a calm, in depth discussion about religious or faith topics?.
i have just finished listening to a great podcast by "dogma debate" (dan) episode 333. this fantastic, in-depth conversation between a theist and an atheist was a masterful example of how a dignified conversation can take place without it resorting to abruptness or even nastiness.. jws on the other hand seem incapable of having such discussion without ending up in the following ways:.
1)they get dogmatic and defensive if a differing view is presented.. 2)if the conversation doesn't go their way, they cut it short saying something like "well, we had better agree to disagree" or the like.. so why the arrogance?

No, not until they start losing some of the WT mind control that is constipating and contaminating their thinking process

Couple of real gems in the WT study for this upcoming weekend
by sir82 insince blondie seems to still be on sabbatical, i'll take the liberty of highlighting a couple of "gems" from this week's upcoming study, from the article "reject worldly thinking".. from paragraph 12:.
is it true that succeeding in a secular career that offers power and prestige leads to lasting happiness?
remember that the craving to control others and the longing to be admired are the desires that enticed satan, but he is angry, not happy.. .

" Craving to control others and be admired " . Jesus. Talk about projection and the pot calling the kettle black. The Governing Body are all about wanting to control others and soaking up all the admiration and adulation from JW's that they can. Hypocrites

My younger brother officially Disassociated today
by pale.emperor inhi guys.
just wanted to share this with you as it's kind of got me worried.
my brother who was also raised in "the truth™" met me in town today for a coffee.

Wow. Pale- I agree with Carla for sure here. I would get on the phone in a hot second to Social Services or whoever is employing your brother's caregiver. I don't think it's legal or it's any of the elders business to interfere with your brothers caregiver situation. It's not their call or decision who is giving care to your brother . It's the decision of the caregiver's employer. I do think it's tampering and breaking the law.
And the elder who told your brother , " We miss you at the KH. ( They say that to everyone ) Can we come and see you to see if we can help in any way ? ( They say that to everyone who leaves ) I don't think you UNDERSTAND what dissassociating means ."
They don't say that last sentence to everyone. To me the elders are essentially telling your brother in a subtle way that due to his Asperger's - he doesn't know what he's doing and they are trying to take his free will away from him. Or it's manipulating his view of his ability to think for himself and make his own decisions here. I don't think it's " nice " at all what these elders are doing to him. They are using his Aspergers against him as a crutch telling him that he " doesn't understand " - when in fact- he does understand and it's HIS right as an adult to make his own decision here, not the elders right. Gotta watch these elders man, they are smarmy, unethical creatures who will do anything to coerce an unsuspecting prey back into the JW cult. Just sayin' here bro. Don't let these elders control your brothers destiny if you can help it. I do not think their motives are good
