my dad was recently made an elder about maybe 6 months ago, and now he is never around he's always at work or doing some kind of jw crap.
now he conducts the watchtower study and is even doing the special talk tommorow.
he's become an even more strict controlling jerk than he was before, and i'm never allowed to go out and do anything non jw related because he doesn't have the time.
Console yourself in knowing it's bollocks so young and that you wont be wasting the best years of your life serving this vile cult just as soon as you are old enough to get away from it.
There is of course the "no" word. Gradually ramp up it's usage according to your circumstances.
although it is titled as "britain branch report" it's not much of a report.
it only goes for just over 6 minutes and half of it is some 'wild talk' about romeo and juliette, i say wild talk because it has nothing to do with the british branch and if there was any point to it, it's lost on me.. anyway, about the only thing said that is of any importance was this (at the 2.20 mark) -.
"the governing body, very kindly, have given us permission to continue construction once we have reviewed the scope of the building so we hope to be underway very soon".
Half of it = parlance for an unnecessary amount, not a measurement of time or weight.
there is a problem with the like and dislike buttons.
depending on what source you are using it is easy to vote more than once on the like or dislike.. i noticed this initially on my tablet touchscreen.
if i tap quickly & continuously click on the like/dislike button, it will register as multiple votes, the same happens on my laptop when i do the same thing with my mouse but this method doesn't register as many votes.it is only a matter of time for others to pick up on this and there may be some who are already aware of this.
Well, i'll sleep easier at night knowing that thanks simon.
May the old gods and the new have mercy on my soul.....
i was reading the thread "problem with likes/dislikes" and i don't understand the issue.
if you don't want your posts disliked, all you do go to your profile and uncheck the box next to the option that says "allow my posts to be rated.
" unfortunately this removes the options to have your posts liked as well but it's fair when you think about it.
Well maybe you dont see the dislikes piling up there but we do...

Personally i never saw the point of the like / dislike and wished simon would either fix it so it is much harder to hit the wrong one or else got rid of it entirely.
I was being tongue in cheek with my "gee why dont you" line btw...

Gee just shout it out for all to hear why dont you?, I've been double clicking on like and dislike since accidentally discovered it. Didnt know about the tablet multiple clicks though...
I use it as a expression of degree, if i like something a lot 2 clicks, if i like something a bit 1 click, if i dislike something a lot 2 clicks, if i dislike something a bit 1 click. Works for me.
so sad.
i love europe.
i love going there not as a tourist, but just blending in and spending time with locals in non-touristy local gems.. islam seems to be spreading their religion of peace throughout the continent.
36 dead in Brussels this week, with probably the largest 3rd bomb that didnt detonate, so it would have been much higher.
This is an islamic problem, they should be the ones coerced into solving it.
some 25 years ago when i was an active teenager in the congregation there was this elder's teenage son that acted out sexually at a young age.
the elder's son i believe was molested over a short period of time at a very young age by another elder whose wife was dying of cancer.
the reason why i suspect it is because this elder was caught and discipline "privately" for touching the breast of a 15 year girl in our congregation.
i'm hearing rumours of huge changes within the berkshire circuit here in the uk .
congregations being dispanded and kingdom halls closing down and being sold off.... official announcements within the next month apparently .
does anyone else have anymore info?.
We are expanding = the end is close.
We are shrinking = the end is really close.
i don't want my wife recognizing me, but i feel like making an anti-jw scene.
Do it naked and covered in lard for greater impact.
