i'm still on an old mailing list and got this recently "encouraging" me to make the pilgrimmage to mecca...i mean...bethel.

kinda sad really.

i have nothing against the people who run the business, they're just trying to make a buck, but i'm soooo glad i'm out of that boring cult.. did you see the governing body's invitation?

When you see some of these old videos there is no question that he lead a rough life. But the fact that he lasted until 70 is an accomplishment. Many old rockers don's last this long.

If Your JW Parent Died Would YOU Go To The Kingdom Hall For The Talk?

i would like your thoughts, please..

Both my parents have passed long before I learned TTATT. So this is a hypothetical question. But, if one of my parents died while I was in my present state of freedom from the cult, I would have no problem going to the KH. I would shake everyone's hand and give a few sloppy kisses.

Great thread. I see a few current elders here. Watchtower has to be seething when they read this thread.

What is the point of the picture in this weeks study article ?

by stuckinarut2 in

i don't understand the relevance of the first picture in this weeks study article?!?!.

wt week of december 15-21 "cherish your privilege of working with jehovah".

can someone post the pic?.

Great summary, Billy. In some sense every organization has a soul - its core essence. Brooklyn has always been to core or the soul of the Watchtower. I can't help but think that they will lose something when they abandon Brooklyn Heights.

I read the quote in the text posted. "There are people everywhere who have bad traits. This shows that god will soon act."

Wow! This god of theirs is not very tolerant.

Tell me what they are thinking or planning to do.

by LogCon in

this is the situation.. ten years ago two fleshly brothers and their wives, [ all are jw's and one is an elder] defrauded an elderly couple [ she was a jw/ he was friendly]out of the possession of their home and property.

one year after that, they took the life savings of the elderly couple and parked it in an account, without their knowledge.

when the old couple found out what happened, the four co-conspirators refused to return anything.

LogCon: This information, which is in my hands presently, will be put into the hands of the Office of the Public Prosecutor in British Columbia. I expect criminal charges to be laid. I will not be liable for any costs.

Sure, give it to them. Keep in mind they have a lot on their plate and may not run with it. So, don't be surprised that you never hear from them again.
