Brilliant!! If I was listening to this at out hall I'd love it! Someone in the Conscious Class will know for sure that you are also a closet apostate but as for the R&F, they will be nodding their heads thinking of 'evil Christendom'. It may even wake a few from their slumber. Awesome job! Please let us know how it goes!!

'The Finished Mystery' page 85 interpreting the Leviathan from the book of Job 41:1-6:-
“Thou wilt lengthen out leviathan [the locomotive] with a hook [automatic coupler] or with a snare [coupling-pin] which thou wilt cause his tongue [coupling link] to drop down. Wilt thou not place a ring [piston] in his nostrils [cylinders] or pierce through his cheeks [piston-ends] with a staff [piston rod]? Will he make repeated supplications unto thee [to get off the track]? Or will he utter soft tones unto thee [when he screeches with the whistle]?… Wilt thou play with him as with a bird [make him whistle at will]? Or wilt thou bind [enslave] him for thy maidens [so that you can take them to a picnic or convention]? Companies [of stockholders] will feast upon him [his earnings] … ”

Describe What a Jehovah's Witness Elder Is Like
by minimus ini know what they are supposed to be like.
but at this point in time, do you think the elders look joyful?
are they serious bible students?

@ Oub... that's exactly how I see it and it drives me mad!! (and he's one of the well educated ones too! A degree and a good job, shame he doesn't use his intelligence to see through it all).
Just wish some bomb would drop and he wakes up!

My hubby's an elder and he's a good man. Respected and 'approachable'. He goes along with what's asked of him but he does have a conscience and finds some things extremely difficult. He's had many many sleepless nights where he can't tell me what's wrong. Also there is far too much red tape that leaves him little time to do the caring that he wants to do. I would say it's a really thankless job and I wonder why he carries on with it. And so does he sometimes. He's tired and stressed but he feels stepping down will just be letting the others down and be giving them more to do.

Newcomers to TTATT: Beware of "New Study Mode"!
by Londo111 inweve all heard it.
a person starts studying with jehovahs witnesses and love what they are learning so much that they cant stop talking about it.
bubbling with enthusiasm, they spill everything they are learning with their friends and family...or anybody who will listen.

Yes it's so true Londo.... at first you want everyone to know but it's dangerous. If you want to keep your relationships you have to go painfully slowly. In time, even if you can't change what they believe at least they come to accept and respect your new beliefs. But it takes tact, discernment and infinite patience. It feels impossible sometimes but it is do-able. Even then sometimes you can 'drop the bomb'!

Will firing the DOs be the first step to a new Watchtower?
by Juan Viejo2 inagainst my better judgement, i've decided to share the following as a response to guy pierce passing and the announcement of the elimination of district overseers later this year.. late in january (2014) i got an email from one of my contacts (a fader) who served at bethel for several years, but is no longer at wt hq.
he still has a lot of close contacts within the service department and in other departments at patterson and knows people in all of the ny offices.
i kept this email set aside on a flash drive and haven't shared it with anyone - figuring i'd publish an article about it later this year when i had more time to do it right.

Thanks Juan.... very interesting. The more things they change the better for me to help my family see through it all! I'm sure the same goes for anyone that's got family still in.

Are You Raising An Introvert?
by darth frosty inits not easy being an introvert in an extrovert worldespecially when youre a kid.
it is even more difficult if none of the adults in the kids life recognize that the child is an introvert.
this doesnt happen only when the childs parents are extroverts, but also with introverted parents who have never understood their own introverted nature.. .

Need advice for asking a girl out
by DuvanMuvan inwell long story short, i've been meaning to ask this girl at school out for a while but i can never do it because her friends are always there in the way and i would prefer to ask her in person.
we've liked each other for a while (i was oblivious until about a month or two ago) and i'm also i bit worried she'll get tired of waiting.. i was just wondering if anyone had any advice or something that they could give me.

Buy a little card, write in it how much you like her and would like to go out with her. Leave your mobile number in it and ask her to text you if she would like to. Wait and see what happens.
All the best!
