It's going more cultified with each passing day. A polished turd is still a turd though, however much shine you put on it.

Anyone who doubts it's a cult needs to do more research.

Can you lay it out here for us as I sure cant remember it. Was it the 1260 and 1315 (?) days in revelation or some other nonsense? -

Weird Wording - The Authority of the Watch Tower Society
by berrygerry inso, while pulling up old articles on the baptism post, and the necessity of this step, i see this strange sentence:.
neither the watch tower society nor any human today can lessen the force of that indication of god’s will.
(wt jan 15, 1971, page 64).. so, are there then other scriptural areas that the watch tower society can lessen god's will?.

If you see a cars indicator (turn signal for you over the pond lot) blinking and you assume the car is likely to be turning in that direction very very soon now (in WT parlance) then if he doesnt you were at fault for misreading his indications, not him for leaving them on or getting his left and right mixed up.
It's the same big J and his indications, except he doesnt exist and any indications are born of fertile imaginations and indoctrinations of men to believe in such things.
Indications is the get out of jail free card for blame mitigation.

Treat it as a fools tax and that you are donating to charity / good causes then spending on it doesnt seem so bad.
Most i've won is 2 x £25 on the same draw, my return rate must be very tiny though, but it gives a dream if nothing much else.

Latest religious lunacy... Suicide by Lion
by Mandrake inyesterday, here in santiago, chile, some stupid ***** yerk tried to kill himself by entering naked to the lions cage in broad day light and while the zoo was filled with people!...
sad part is the zoo personnel had to shoot dead the lions (male and female, 22 years old)... because waiting for the tranquilizers to take effect would be the sarah of the man.... at first everyone thought it was a suicide attempt, but later they found in his garments some kind of letter stating that armageddon had come and that he is daniel the prophet and god would save him... and he signed the letter as "jesus christ".

The staff should have shot him not the lions.
I assume he was mentally ill though....

Someone anonymously tipped the elders?
by raven inso here an update on my current situation, in a nutshell i've been trying to quietly fade for the past 5 months.. well, my mom somehow found out that i am currently fading and that i live with my boyfriend (for more info on this check my previous posts) i told her yes i live with him and yes i no longer want to be a jw.
anyways, yesterday she met my boyfriend.. awkward.
and after lunch she pulled me aside to tell me that the po came up to her (he was part of my jc when i was reproved) he said to her "someone came to me and said - i cannot say who so they will remain anonymous- but that your daughter is living with someone" my mom confirmed and apparently he told her that i have one week to confess this, and if i don't my parents are obligated to tell them everything.. what kind of nonsense is that?

They will demand to see the certificate as proof, it wont satisfy them.
