very annoying that they are now using false pretenses to get themselves an open door!
I've always thought the "we're on a mission from God" pretense is a bit of a whopper in itself.
of course you know the answer... how ironic.
i swear, jehovah's witnesses only come when i'm hanging out in sweatpants and a tank top with no bra on.
if i am wearing a bra, they don't come.

LOL, I remember getting really "upset" at the door once because a wayy too hot/wayy to scantily clothed young girl who smelled like fresh sex came to the door and flirted with whoever I was there with (I was pretty passive in the service).
The "brother" that did the talking didn't seem phased and then as we walked away made some comment about how she wasn't dressed appropriately I liked how she was dressed, wasn't completely sure why at age 11-12 or so, but I LIKED IT. Enough to grab the magazines out of his hands and offer to do the next door as the explanation for why I wanted to carry them. *cough* stiffy camo *cough*
i am spending it having a very unfruitful yard sale !
been out here since six am and have only had two people stop !
one bought a 50cent paperback book .
I'm washing clothes, giving my head a fresh shave, and getting ready for a lunch/dinner meetup with 12 other Ex-JWs.
this facebook group is trying to get 10,000 exjw members.... join up!.

Finding 10,000 pissed off ex-Dubs ought to be cinch!!!
I've just started reading Crisis of Conscience. In the early pages there is some discussion about the "turnover" and the actual DECLINE in numbers in America. If I recall correctly the "turnover" meaning lost individuals (not to death) was like 14% per year.
That would pretty easily mean that there are more Ex-JWs than JW's. Can anyone back me on that.
We should seek to organize 1 million JW's.

this sundays watchtower lesson is titled who is wise and understanding among you?.
its mostly a rehash of past material concerning the need to be cooperative with fellow christians for the peace of the congregation.
however, i suspect that whole point of this study article is actually contained in paragraph 14 where it talks about elders who might be removed from their position if they are deemed by the body and the co as no longer meeting the scriptural qualifications laid out for the position.
A culling of the Elder flock makes sense in light of the canceling of the Book Study. The elders are also probably the most fxxxable of the flock. They can not only install some fear and discipline in the flock and make an example of weak ones, but a good fraction of the fxxxed will probably take it and show faith in the face of humiliation. Nice.
Not how I'd run my cult, but I'm sure it works.
well, the time is almost here--already.
the first of the 2008 grand boasting sessions is almost upon us, and i expect to begin seeing threads about the programs in the coming weeks.
notably, this means some children will be missing the last weeks of school (the program starts on friday), or at least one day of it, to attend.. i will be looking for any new rules and instructions that have not yet happened.
Anybody got a date for the Rochester, MN District Convention? (I assume its still in Rochester, its been there forever).
i received the may 1, 2008 watchtower yesterday.
my husband was reading through the article entitled gods power revealed in the stars.
they included pictures of stars and galaxies and one of the pictures just happened to be pleiades star cluster!
hmm, we're back to the N*rth*rn K*nt*cky add.
Lets see:

Girls Gone Wild
Lets see what that gets us?
***from my investigative reports bureau*** cnn reports that gas stations across the nation will start showing porn movies on the screens of the pumps so that you can see someone else get screwed at the same time you do !
have a great day,.
cheers!.
I don't understand how ANYONE thinks porn is bad
i ask this because i had a strange experience this week.
for a brief bit of background knowledge i'm being shunned like most on here, but i see witnesses every day in my place of work and at the school gate, there's no avoiding them, and like many of you, i've found it really hard to get over the hurt and heartache this has caused.. yesterday my mum (an active witness) went into hospital to have a tumor removed (successfully) as i'm the only daughter nearby to help, the other witnesses were asking the elders what they were supposed to do if they wanted to visit my mum and i was at her bedside, should they talk to me or turn round and go out again.. one elder said to do that would be utterly ridiculous, of course i should be spoken to.
he was very annoyed even at the suggestion.
people who see the light are pretty much by definition NOT Jehovah's Witnesses.
"love her hate him".
"hate her love him".
both keep screaming how america is ready for change.. what kind of change?.
Who cares? They aren't Bush.
Hillary needs to be killed so she can't molest our candidates like this again. I suggest burning at the stake, its been the traditional way to deal with B(w)itches.
