I agree that this takes things to a new level. It's disturbing and scary. Unfortunately many of them have so much emotionally invested that they just can't let go no matter what is said to them.

New CO talk: Be loyal to Org. even if you get weird instructions or can prove them wrong doctrinally!
by sir82 intheme was something about "loyalty to jehovah's visible organization".. i have neither the time nor inclination to summarize the whole thing, but a few points stood out:.
even if it causes you personal hardship.
example: joshua & caleb returned from spy trip to promised land with good report, but were "outvoted" by the other 10 spies.

Anyone know Anthony Morris?

i had never heard of the guy and was curious if perhaps he was decent.

I listened to the whole thing too Olin. I guess I just wanted it reconfirmed for me the reasons I left. Speakers like this jackass certainly bring it home to me quickly enough. His utter contempt for anyone not a gung ho JW is palpable. It's obvious he's looking forward to the slaughter. He practically gushes when talking about the number of dead bodies. No remorse of the absurdity of 1975, just blame the rank and file. Disgusting.

Thanks for the comments everyone. I wonder when he decided he was one of the anointed. The biography conveniently leaves that out. I thought he was a very poor speaker. I hate how he pauses waiting for laughs.

It was vomit-inducing. I had never heard of the guy and was curious if perhaps he was decent. Nope - another asshole.

http://www.archive.org/details/WhatIsTheSignficanceOf1975
His manner of speaking is so aggravating! The way he enunciates every syllable as if every little word he says is of utmost significance - of life and death importance! What a responsibility for ruined lives lay at this deluded man's feet! And to think he never expressed remorse...
At least the blame can be fully placed on him. Their new light on overlapping generations can't be placed on any one person but certainly rivals the 1975 teaching as the purest of bullshit. They just never learn.

I can say one thing with certainty. If I hadn't left already, this pure and utter bullshit would have sent me out the door. I just can NOT believe people will buy this. Usually they make at least some attempt to make a change make some kind of sense but this is mindnumbingly stupid. It is truly the equivalent of telling the group to drink poisoned Kool-aid. It makes no more sense to believe this change than it would to drink that.

Ugly Sisters
by XPeterX ino.k i have noticed that most female jws are ugly.and by ugly i mean ugly.they won't work out,they are fat and won't go on a diet (some female teens won't even shave their legs),they neglect their appearance/body in general.any opinions?.
.
p.s many will eventually get fat after marriage.
-
Eiben Scrood
I don't know about that. I remember finding lots of sisters attractive. I'll agree though that many never looked up to their potential as they tried to look modest.

Natick, MA Assembly Hall
by Eiben Scrood ini have a lot of memories of attending assemblies there for 30 years.
does anyone remember all the purple coloring?
remember that guy who used to wave a stick like he was conducting an orchestra except there was no orchestra, only a guy playing the piano and the audience singing?.

minimus - would you mind saying who the CO and DO were that helped push in through?
