LoveUNiHateExams. " I can't believe this thread is still going on...."
This thread to me is about tolerance, and this " silly bigoted" woman and her supporters anti attitude towards gay marriage, makes the world a less loving place.
I hope this thread goes on and on, until that message is understood.

as you may or may not know (or care), i live in the uk.
a jw spy of mine told me that an elder had metioned that attendance at the kingdom hells had seemed to have dropped off after the australian royal comission expose of paedophilia within the watchtower organisation.. the elders were said to have had this as an item or the subject of a local elder's meeting.. i was surprised they'd even heard of the arc over here but at the same time was delighted.
delighted that meeting attendance had dropped possibly....and i say possibly...as a result of the arc.. even an older dyed in the wool jw i know is getting sick of the gb worship within the organisation and had heard of the arc.. has anyone heard similar?.
In my opinion " Punk" it doesn't sit well, because when the G.B appear on "their own T.V evangelising show":-
A) The witness persona of the G.B is less mystical, and they are seen for what they are.
B) Therefore Witnesses can clearly see who comes up with this shit !!

monday is a holiday.......so a super zealous brother asks me....."are you going out in service then?.
absolutely the last thing i would want to do!.
if i do go again ever, i think my presentation should be " i'm so sorry for ever bothering you with the absolute crap we're handing out.
Re Ministry on a Day off?
If I were n charge of the ministry I would say:-
" Today is a public holiday, and those who work on a public holiday often receive double time, therefore all brothers and sisters who go on the ministry today can REPORT DOUBLE TIME". Now that would get a full attendance.
There is a point to my observation it's could " LOGIC" and " FIGURES" That is all the ministry is. It works by cohersing. Without cohersing in my opinion the J.Ws would not go door to door. So much for the " Good News"

Another observation I noted Christians were waving banners and saying " Sodomy is Sin". My question is:-
What has gay marriage and love got to do with sodomy?
In my opinion it's a seperate issue, and not relevant to the debate.

The ARC sounds like ARK and if the bible is true how did kangaroos get to Australia.
I think the "ARC" will have no greater impact on meeting attendance in the U.K than the biblical " ARK" and Kangaroos has.
Besides we have had English T.V documentaries on paedophiles in the J.W congregations.
What impact did that have on attendance?

Hope my contribution is on topic?
in my opinion there is no " traditional marriage" it changes with the views of society. Yet for many religious people the religiouse view hasn't.
So what is their religious view:-
a) unfaithful is forgivable.
b) get married and divorced 5 or 6 times is ok.
Yey argue against Gay marriage.
hmmmmmm seems a little hypocritical to me.

" only the good die young".
or at least they remain eternally young and heroic particularly if they died for you.
the trouble is we can outgrow our hero worship and our opinions of that person can change.. this is what has happened to me with my childhood friend and my hero jesus.
Maybe this thread has " NAILED" why the story of Jesus has survived over 20000 years?
What I find interesting though is that a man " NAILED" to a cross 2,0000 years ago, has made so many billions for organisations, and millions for individuals. ( Ironic for a man who never even owned his own home)

in egland we give " deserving" & " high flyers" titles.. this morning i was thinking i should have named my son president.
i am sure it would have given him a great advantage in latter life.. so my questions:-.
do you think when a publisher becomes a " ministerial servant" or an "elder":-.
So according to the latest, sisters should only consider " love" or rather " marriage" , with a brother who is a " M.S" or Elder.
Wow become a " M.S" and suddenly all the single sisters will fancy me. ( On a seriouse note that is a pretty good incentive)
The Rebel.
it is a warm sunny day, blue skies and i am excited by the prospect this sunday holds.
will i dismantle a motorbike?
paint a picture?
Well it's that time of the week once again. I am eating chicken wings and drinking a beer whilst listening to the rain fall outside. The more zelose brothers and sisters will just be finishing the door to door and on the way to the public talk......
The Rebel.
an unwelcome dawn comes creeping upward, her tendrils straddling the dark mountain so terribly near my once sweet but now quaking refuge called home of the heart.. i peer through panes that give onto a landscape of horror that, to some, appears pristine but to me is a reminder that he has been swallowed up by a wood both black and cruel.. daring to venture forth, i hear his voice .
.
.. he calls out, so faintly, begging i rescue him from a jail that holds him fast against all escape; though myself a liberated man, i cannot free the one i taught the truth.
Thanks Compound, tell me have you ever tried " free writing" which is just writing with out giving any thought ?
