firstly thanks to cofty & smiddy for the kind words on my " final post" .
this post is simply to say over two months have passed since my last post and since then i have with my wife and son seen elton john live, visited stockholm, berlin, and most importantly appreciated " the natural beauty of my neighbourhood" with out even thinking about the watchtower.
i have also attended 3 watford football matches with my son and made better relationships with my parents, discovered harvey's draught beer and made new friends in my local pub.
The Jehovah's Witness"religion" is full of weak individuals who cannot cope with the outside world. The more one does for the org, the more of a weak person this person is. The org provides a structure for those who will never leave.
The strongest people alive are those who leave these high control institutes, and go on to live their own lives.
no, the faithful and discreet slave.. discreet: wise, cautious.
discrete: separate, distinct.
noun forms for the above:.
They are no more discreet than the proverbial bull in a China shop.
just popped on to see if december broadcast was up and it's not.. however, there is a new vid of bro.
morris addressing child abuse within the org.. https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodstudio/pub-jwban_201507_2_video.
Something to remember. The watchtower NEVER do anything without some sort of an agenda. The recent bethel doctors video is a case in point, this, in my opinion, is in response to the recent death of a young mother due to the Blood policy.
i attended a sunday meeting today after missing a couple due to a bout of chronic apathy.
out of 74 publishers we had a grand total of 33. wonderful.
for those that attend, how are you finding the numbers?.
When I was attending my local KH, they had no second school due to the low numbers. The elders were also having to constantly cover parts for the ministry school, as it was called then.
I could never get my head round the low turnout, especially when they merged the two congregations together...Now I know why, most active JW's probably think it is a crock of shit!
The last memorial I went to was actually pretty shocking in the way of numbers. They always needed to use the second school and back room. The last one I attended never even got this close!
very stressfull and upsetting evening was had last night.
i dropped my 2yo daughter off to my ex-wifes home.
all seemed good until i got home.
^^^I second the above^^^
Also, be prepared if this does got to court. You can bet your bottom dollar that there will be corrector witnesses called, and the elders will coax the rank and file to lie about you too. ALWAYS REMEMBER to mention this to your solicitor, with the written evidence from the watchtower that pertains to the lying they will do, even under oath.
at a 3-day convention in nairobi, kenya this week 12-2-16 through 12-4-16, they had 70,000+ attendance, and there were 792 baptized (i presume the baptism was yesterday).
i was amazed to hear this; i guess now we know where the wt's growth is coming from..
Toes up. I disagree, the western world will provide the money, whilst developing countries will provide those all important figures.
they offered themselves willingly—in new yorkricky, a construction project manager in hawaii, was invited to serve as a commuter bethelite to assist with the warwick project.
his wife, kendra, wanted him to accept the invitation.
however, they had a legitimate concern: the welfare of their 11-year-old son, jacob.
I have one thing to say to you shadow...I laugh at your intellect...WAHAHAHA.
having been a jw for decades i'm used to watching what i do, say, or watch, in fear of being snitched on.. therefore, i the question begs.. there have been instances, i won't say how, where i've felt some members are being deliberate in their attempt to feign support for the anti-jw rhetoric on this forum.. any input is greatly appreciated..
I have no idea if you could classify this person as a mole. But takeofthecrown could have been one.
it's amazing how the expression "the truth" has become such an ingrained term used by witnesses.. "we have 'the truth'".
"is he 'in the truth'?".
most here have found out so many facts about the organisation, and felt the effects of being "gut-punched" as we realised these facts.. so how do you feel about the expression "the truth" now?.
^^^^Actually that gives me an idea...We should rename it "the turd," a lot more fitting in my opinion^^^^
of publisher numbers go up its a sign jehovah must be blessing the work if they go down it a sign the end must be near .
if there's an earthquake it a sign.if there's a war it's a sign ..i'm sure donald trump is sign.
karter.
Reptilians are real...honestly...I've just seen one scuttle past me...DAMN THOSE BEARDED DRAGONS...DAMN THEM ALL TO HELLLLLLLLLLLL!!!
----EDIT---- If I believed in hell then I would damn them to hell!
