  Women and Heaven.

  by John Aquila in

  the desire to have the company of a beautiful woman is so great, that angels were willing to leave heaven for a few forbidden moments of touching, kissing, and caressing---and then be destroyed..

  genesis 6:2 (gnt) some of the heavenly beings saw that these young women were beautiful, so they married any woman they chose..

  by the way, whats wrong with marriage?.

  Better yet, why not just create beautiful spirit women in heaven and let the angels have their own women----- in their spirit realm.

  
  

  Why is there no women in heaven?????

  I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this in another post, but I moved to an area where 5 of my closest neighbors are JWs. Another family is Mormons, and another family is Catholic. I not sure what the family on the end of the street is. They never come out during the day. There have their property fenced in with barb wire and they leave the house at night and are back before the sun comes out. They drive this old back utility truck like the one in the movie, "Jeepers Creepers"

  
  
  

  The Mormon family is always arguing with the JW families and the Catholic family couldn’t give a hoot about either the Mormons or the JWs, but they “All” like me a lot and stop by and talk to me. I’m like Switzerland.

  All the JWs are from the Spanish congregation and each family has about 4 girls and 1 boy, or at least it seems that way. One of the JW Sisters has a little store in her home and sells shoes, 2nd hand clothes, makeup, vitamins, and all kinds of junk. So every day she gets about 20 or 30 JW sisters from the surrounding Spanish congregations who visit the store and there’s all kinds of commotion going on.

  Since they are Spanish, they aren’t able to communicate very well with me except the young sisters. They know I’m an inactive but it doesn’t seem to bother them and they never pester me with encouragement to go back. The young sisters always bring me cookies, and sweet bread and stay for a while telling me about their day and asking for my opinion on certain things in life which would probably make another good post. Hey why not, I’m single. And I don’t have to go out to enjoy the company of young good looking girls. Heck I don’t even have to ask them out. They come to me.

  What’s funny is the Spanish work my street every week to visit the Mormon family and the Catholic family. They never open the door-LOL. When they do catch the Mormons outside, it's an all-out war of wits. (Planet ownership vs paradise earth.)
  

  Anyway I believe the Spanish had one convention yesterday in Las Cruces N.M. and one of the “Male JW” introduced me to the newest addition to their Kingdom Hall that got baptized.

  A WT "prophecy" that finally came true?

  by eyeuse2badub in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  at long last, after 140 years of failed prophecies, it appears that the borg finally got one right!

  recall the odd little article published back in the november 15th, 2013 wt about the 7 shepherds 8 dukes (anti-type) and the evil assyrian (anti-type) and some silly nonsense about the assyrians attack on the vulnerable wtbts.

  page 20 paragraph 17 of that strange article contained this foreboding prophecy from the faithful and discreet slave, (anti-type);.

  At that time, the life-saving direction that we receive from Jehovah’s organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint. All of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.”

  
  

  Those bastards, they prepped everyone up. AND IT WORKED!!!

  I don't want to go to deep into it but I don't like the direction the world is going. People are just more immoral and hateful these days. It's like choosing the lesser of two evils. Things have gotten so bad that I feel JWs are more sane than the average worldly person now.

  You need to challenge your world view.

  What Can Circuit Overseers Who Come To Know The Truth About The Truth Do To Cripple The Delusional Watchtower Corporation?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  well it is only natural to assume that a modest number of cos&wives, bethelites, and other people are becoming enlightened shall we say as to the real sinister nature of these sociopaths called the faithful and discreet governing body slave bull shit artist.. so what besides making secret documents public can these do to get some type of satisfactional revenge for being used by them in such a cruel way or like a smuck who they don't even give one shit about.

  what can these ladies and men do?

  how can they get some form of pay back for all the years they wasted slaving for these no good greedy bastards called the governing fucking body?

  If anyone high up in the latter could do anything, it was none other than Ray Franz – Member of the Governing Body. But religion is protected by the government and its laws. That is why the thousands of members who have lost children, husbands, wives, and parents because of the blood doctrine are not able to do anything. The government assumes that people in general are smart enough to know what they are doing when they join a membership in any religion. And smart enough to get out when they discover it is not right for them.

  Circuit Overseers or full time workers for the WT and who have given most of their life to serve the WT are at their mercy to provide for them in their old age. If they mess up in any way, they are disfellowshipped like Ray Franz and become homeless. No one will help them including their family because you can’t talk to or help a disfellowship person.

  The WT has all their bases covered.

  That’s What Happens When You Leave the Truth.

  by John Aquila in

  2. experiences

  it never failed, when someone got disfellowshipped or left the organization, their life became shambles.

  if married, a divorce ensued.

  if the person had a great job, the company would lay-off or close.

  a little part of me insisted on having a career in the public eye so I could be a constant beacon to expose the lie that a persons life would crumble if leaving the org. I saw nothing but the opposite

  I'm beginning to see that it is important that when a person leaves the WT, that person needs to get busy and starts building up a good life. Not only is it good for that person to heal but it might help others see the ridiculousness of pursuing goals like pioneering, Bethel, Circuit Overseer, Missionary.

  It never failed, when someone got disfellowshipped or left the organization, their life became shambles. If married, a divorce ensued. If the person had a great job, the company would lay-off or close. If the person was healthy, they would get cancer or a serious ailment.

  And you could see it with your own eyes, so you would crawl back into the cave.

  But things are changing. This week I ran into a sister that I hadn’t seen for about 25-28 years. She was a pioneer who made just one mistake-- with this brother who convinced her to have sex and she felt so guilty that she went to the body of elders and confessed that same night. They formed a committee that same night and she got disfellowshipped. She worked hard to get reinstated. It took her close to 3 years of writing letters, sitting in the back of the hall, and putting up with everyone ignoring her.

  Finally she got reinstated but it was never the same. The friends treated her with contempt and would limit their association with her because she gave in to sex.

  She met this young man who was not a JW and started dating him. Immediately when the sisters found out, they reported her and she was counseled and was reproved and put on restriction. (Just for dating a non-jw)

  I could tell she was totally depressed. Then she disappeared. Stopped coming to the hall, changed her phone number and moved to a new address. A few years later we heard she got married to this young Non-JW. Some of the Elders would say; OOOh is she going to pay for leaving the truth. We’ll get her when she comes back crawling.

  Well I saw her at the store this week. Visiting for the holiday. About 25-28 years have passed. It’s still freaks me out what some 25 years can do to a person. She was a young (20+) year old girl when I last saw her, and now she is a (50) year old lady. It turns out that the young man she married went on to become a doctor, she has 4 children the oldest one in his 20s and almost done with College. She lives in an area that the JWs don’t like to work in the door to door because of its affluence. When they do knock on her door she sees them on her monitor and won’t give them the time of the day.

  She did say something interesting. She said, “That when they walk away, she wonders about them. How can they be so blind and not see that they are being manipulated. I can understand young people being manipulated, but adults!!!”

  I was real curious so I asked her straight out if she knew TTATT?

  She replied, “What’s that”

  I started explaining and she had no idea of 607 BC, no idea of the lawsuits, no idea of all the new light, she knows zilts, nada, nothing of the Watchtower.

  She’s been busy raising her kids, traveling with her husband to Africa, China, Japan, and other places just for vacation. She does a lot of interesting things with her friends, many who are wives of other doctors, lawyers, and entrepreneurs.

  While she is telling me this, I am beginning to see that I have missed out on a lot in life. I was really trapped like a slave and didn’t realized that great possibilities were taken away from us when we become one of Jehovah’ Witness. It’s not just about wasting your time in the door to door, conventions, etc. It’s about stealing your identity, stealing your potential, stealing people that could have been good friends of yours that would stick to you through thick or thin. Friends that would add and not take away from your happiness.

  Finally she tells me, “You know, I really don’t care to know anything about the Watchtower. I don’t care if they are a cult, I don’t care if they are the true religion, I just don’t care to know anything about them. I have a great life, I have a great husband, I have great kids, and I don’t care to know anything or want anything from those people. And I’ve already warned my kids about the WT and they promised me they would stay far away from them.

  You don’t have to know TTATT to leave the organization. If you happen to make a good life for yourself, nothing else will matter. I think that’s the key.

  The only bad thing about this experience is that I can’t relate it to all those JWs that made her life miserable. They are still thinking;

  there are literally about thirty young single very good looking sisters in this one kingdom hall under the age of 30. that is just one kingdom hall.

  in the circuit there are literally hundreds of young beautiful jw girls under 30 who are single and anxious to get married.

  about two years ago, this one single good looking brother who is about 30 years old and who is an elder married this plain looking sister who is 59 years old.

  having brunch and then getting a massage instead of sitting at the grand poobah session several blocks from my house.

  it always irritated me how the convention was always scheduled for july 4th weekend and now it doesn't matter.

  not trying to rub salt in the wounds of you poor ones who have to be bored or angry by turns at the rc this weekend, as i did decades of drone seat warming.

  I don't miss one thing about those conventions now.

  I live next to several families who have their convention today. I woke up early because the pattering sounds of rain woke me up. I made me a drink, put on some shorts and went for a walk in the park. It was great. When I came back home all the families were going crazy packing their vehicles with lunches, cooler boxes, rounding up the kids, and husbands yelling at their wives to hurry up. I can’t believe all the years I lost doing that shi**

  I set up the grill, set up some speakers, got the guitar ready, and had a great morning.

  On a side note--all the sister bashing on here bothers me.

  Don’t let it bother you. It’s just a general statement. There’s a lot of elder bashing on here and I was an elder for many years along with many others, but it’s not intended as a direct hit to us personally, it’s directed at “Who we were” when we were under the spell of the WT. You have to admit, as long as they are under that spell, both men and women can be totally moronic.
