Belief in evolution is an apostate religion!! Nice! Tie accepted science to the fear mongoring they do every week about apostasy. By the way- gravity, mass, physics, biology, chemistry- also "secular religions" People believe in them sooooo much!!!! (must be the Debil!!!)

Could you 'Wake Up Happy' if you were an active Witness, knowing what you know now? (A 2012 Convention invitation)
by ScenicViewer ina convention invitation.
i came home the other day and found an invitation to the upcoming district convention in my door.
i don't believe these are left in the doors of the general public, so a well-meaning witness must have been thinking of me, even though i have not been to the kh in about 7 years.. the leading question on the front immediately got my attention, and made my jaw drop a bit.. i thought i would ask the forum, .

Sounds like an invitation to be brainwashed and hypnotized. And the picture of the mindless drones sitting listening without reaction to the program just adds to the message.
Really looks culty to me.

Wow- I remembered being there- checked out- eyes rolled back in my head- dozing off- waiting for the old coger to get it over with- hoping he didnt loose his place and start saying the prayer. I cant believe we convinced ourselves that this muttering was part of the "spiritual paradise" we were in. (The chance to be taught directly by the GB!!)

Scan Request - 2012 JW Calendar Jan/Feb Image (another artistic blunder?)
by LostGeneration incan someone post this in this thread please?
i don't know why the wife didn't get any jw calenders for 2012, but i was over at my dad's last night and looked through his for a few minutes.. in the upper right corner, it had a woman reading through a scroll, and i could swear it was referring to abraham and sarah.
now i'm no bible scholar, but i would find it pretty unusual for sarah to be reading through a scroll.

The real question is- why dont they show the rest of the story- Abraham tying his son up- putting him on the camp fire and taking out a big knife to cut his throat??
I cant believe Abraham is such a hero to so many religions. He was a religious fanatic psychopath!!

No need for a long an complicated departure:
You Just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free -

Letter to the Writing Department from Barbara Anderson
by Dogpatch ini thought i knew you.
an open letter from barbara anderson to watch towers writing department.
in 1517, martin luther wrote in a letter to archbishop albert of mainz: you must graciously forgive that i, that scum of the earth, am so bold as to dare to address a letter to you.. yes, i know, you think of me as scum, just like mainz believed of luther, wondering how i dare write you a letter, someone jehovahs witnesses disfellowshipped back in 2002. i was accused of being an unrepentant sinner and condemned for causing divisions, then labeled apostate because i spoke out publicly on nbcs dateline tv program aboutthe child sexual abuse policies that protected pedophiles policies that you helped formulate.

Great job Barbara. Did Martin Luther think the pope would read his letters nailed to the door of the church? Of course not! It was the broader audience that created the revolution!

Its funny, after an article like this (they come out every year) you would think the elders would be training the MS's, encouraging them, giving them chances to grow, etc.
However- I found the opposite to be the case. The "body of elders" is an insular group wanting to maintain the status quo- no competition from young bucks. It takes a lot of years for the "in crowd" to become comfortable enough with a young MS to even consider them as an elder. And just plain old baptized publishers becoming an MS- forget it- you practically have to live with your tongue up the a$$es of the elder body to even be considered. Very heirarchical. Lotsa BS. Glad I'm outa there.

Ive done a 10 mile loop in the Catskills on Wittenburg, Cornell and Slide peaks- took us 2 days- camped in the saddle between Cornell and Slide. Also did a 10 mile loop in the Adirondacks- Wolfs Jaw, Gothic, and one other peak I cant remember the name of.
Great fun! Never thought I'd be able to do something like that. My kid being in Boy scouts has introduced me to some great mountaineering experiences.
