4th Generation Witnesses and Maybe more ?
by out4good3 injust read a thread about a guy being a forth generation witness and a question came to mind.
how is it that jw's can rationalize the end being always "just around the corner" when there is soon to be 4th, 5th, and maybe 6th generation witnesses?
just how is it that the previous generations can continue to follow so blindly after one failed prediction after another of never getting old in this "system of things"?.

Quote from C of C "page224"
by out4good3 in....a trap that i had thought i had been protected against.
letting the scriptures speak for themselves-without being first funneled through some fallable human agency as a "channel".
thought provoking words........ i'm only half way through this book and i wish i could send it to all my jw relatives.

The Problem Around Here is
by out4good3 inthat some people seem to think they are the authority on everything and feel like they should always get the last word.
i try not to get involved in the flaming that goes on around here by checking my ego at the door and thats not the reason for this post anyway, but it's my experience that all of, without exception, jw are like this.
the perceived arrogance that they alone are in possession of the only truth seems to compell them to keep an argument going even when they are clearly on the losing side so that they can be sure to get the last word in.

Michael Jackson (Full of $%@#)
by out4good3 invent on.
i can't possibly be the only one feeling this way.. here's a self-professed maybe ex jw pedophile whose made upwards to a billion dollars selling records now using the race card.
michael jackson...using the race card.. could it be sour grapes because the album he spent 50 million producing was a complete and utter flop?

Stop and Listen !!!!!! NNOOOWWWWW
by out4good3 inwhat is it with hardcore jw's who think that everytime an elder speaks everyone should drop what they're doing and listen?.
i was over a relative's house the other day when two elders came by for a shepherding call.
they wound up talking to the wife because the husband, who fell away after the 1975 fiasco, was hiding out in the back of the house.

Imposing Will and PMS
by out4good3 inwell, it's coming upon another 28 day cycle and my wife is on her usual emotional rollercoaster.
the only difference now is that next week it's assembly time so i've got the annual fare of "we're growing apart" and "you never want to do anything i want to do" since i didn't want to go to the meeting with her today.
she'll say that she just wanted to be with me, but i'm not for any of the emotional blackmail that goes along with going to any meeting with her this time of the year.
