The elders came to talk about my facebook comment
by cookiemaster inso, not long ago i've told you guys how one of my only two jw friends saw my comment against the borg and called me about it.
well, the little fraker also called the elders to tell on me.
i know i've been a huge idiot for posting a comment about jw's on facebook, but nonetheless i did it and what's happened, happened.. two idiot elders came all the way from the nearest congo, 30 miles away to talk to me about it.

"All I said was that the JW's were a shitty, destructive cult."
Yea, I can see how that might ruffle some feathers.

Recent recollections from the regional convention.
by ulises225 inshort story long, i've been out for 6 months now, my family are studying with the witnesses and they believe that is the true path but sided with me when i was disfellowshipped, they made it very clear they were not going to shun me and now i'm taking steps to make them realize what this religion really is about, meanwhile, it made my mother happy to know i went to the regional convention in a city where i don't know any witnesses which made it easier for me, anyways.. during one of the talks one of the speakers mentioned that convention where rutherford changed the name of "bible students" to that of jehovah's witnesses, and he said that the even was broadcasted worldwide through the radio, none of this is news, however he said that at that hour of the day when the announcement was given, witnesses in japan were trying to get the radio signal fixed so they could hear the talks given by rutherford, basically he said they failed to fix the radio signal but "miraculously" the signal was ok during the announcement so witnesses in japan got to hear the announcement, broke in tears and then the signal was gone again.. now that i know how the organization conducts itself i know this story is pure nonsense but if we examine this and please correct me if i'm wrong the data given by the speaker proves the story to be false by itself.
first i remember that it wasn't until knorr sent missionaries to japan that witnesses began to appear in japan, i remember a video where lloyd barry speaks of missionaries arriving to japan in the 40's and he said there were only a handful of witnesses whereas the speaker at the convention mentions "how many brothers in japan gathered to hear the radio broadcast by rutherford" second, the speaker is part of the branch committee in mexico so he ought to know that what he was saying was not true at all.. anyways this is my first post.
i will try to do this regularly, and if someone is from mexico i'm up to meet anyone.

I heard a lot of stories about the name change, but never heard the version you mentioned. Which makes me wonder if it was a recently made up story. -

I must be so far out of mainstream thought that I do not know what a GMO or a Dr. Oz is. -

In the 90s, the most I ever donated was $20 - which was a very rare occasion. This probably explains why no one follows up on my fade. I did not create sufficient value to care about. -

My strong recommendation is not to buy any green bananas. That is how close we are at the end of this system.
But then again, I forgot to ask who is the king of the north? Who will turn against Babylon the Great? When and How? There are so many things I am looking forward to as we progress towards this ending date. I think my green bananas will ripen.

I am surprised you did not use the joke about when we know Hillary is lying - her lips move...
But then again, I am not impressed with our Republican options.

After the movie Alive, I had numerous conversations with my children about who I would eat first (if we were ever stranded in the Andes mountains. I guess that option is no longer available to me.
