  Do you ever wonder if some of the elders you were exposed to,.... are here?

  i always wonder my self.

  the ones i knew were all so corrupt and most full of bs, and eventually thier kids too.....i wonder if they are on this forum.

  it would be satisfying to know they finally came to!.

  There are a few that If I knew they were here, I'd first give them a good swift cyber kick in the arse for being such a__holes. Then I would welcome them and help them get on with their lives outside the collective.

  Moments at the District Assembly You'll Never Forget...

  i'll never forget the assembly in madison, wi.

  where some poor sap had to tell everyone that he had become addicted to porno on the net, but through much prayerful contemplation and after confessing to the elders he was able to come to "grips" with it.. good luck to that guy with ever getting a fine sister to marry him.. poor guy.

  i really felt sorry for him.

  Confidential Body of Elder Letters from 1981 through 2006

  here it is guys.

  this is what darth frosty was talking about in his post the other day (http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/149460/1.ashx).

  this is a collection of confidential letters from the watchtower society that were sent to the bodies of elders in the years 1981 through 2006. these are the letters that you were never meant to see or read.. there's all sorts of information in them ranging from the boring and mundian to instructions about how to handle child molesters.. many thanks to darth frosty and others (who i'm not sure can be named) who worked very hard and took risks to collect and scan the information.

  I started reading some of this pablum and I threw up in my mouth a little. I had to stop.

  I am so glad I am away from that suffocating cult.

  Thanks for this. I am inclined to email this .pdf anonymously to some elders and dubs I know. Just to keep them looking over their shoulders a bit.

  No, but I was in Killeen for work back in Oct 2001. I had lunch with an engineer from a local research facility at Lubys at about 11:30, left at about 12:30. I was on a plane back to Boston by 2:30. The next morning I heard on the news that at 12:45 a gunmen drove his pickup through the glass doors, opened fire and killed 24 people.

  Does that count?

  Way to go, ButtLight!!! We are all very proud of you!!

  As someone who went back FULL TIME at 47 to get my BS Engineering, I know how hard it is to do this!!! Keep at it!!

  I remember telling an elder once just before I left that Jesus saying "Do not hide your light under a basket" was a command for EACH and EVERY one of us to use our god given gifts, talents and intelligence to it's fullest extent. And that that meant getting an education beyond HS, period. Then developing whatever gifts you had, be it music, art, buliding a better Hot Rod, mousetrap, skyscraper . . . . . WHATEVER!!

  You Go Baby!

  WooHoo!!

  So I did the unthinkable

  by veen in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i decided enough was enough and had a no holds barred conversation with a room of around a dozen 'believers'.

  a number of things had been troubling me all night, but the final straw was when my brother-in-law said 'isn't it funny how the acronym std can stand for both, sexually transmitted disease and satan the devil.'.

  i couldn't stand the frustration anymore so i pointed out how irrelevant that fact was, and how if we spoke a different language the same conclusion could probably not be made.

  Something fishy re: Bhutto attack..

  2. current

  i think somethings fishy.

  they're now saying that she died as a result from falling and hitting the roof of the car.

  now, i saw pics taken a few seconds before the attack, and she was sticking out 3 feet tops.

  It's all religous smoke and mirrors, waving of the hands, spin . .

  I've read a couple reports that state if her death was "accidental" and not a "direct" result of the violence . . .then she would "Not" be a martyr for Islam

  And I thought the Borg was fucked up
