Fourth Gen born in the cult. Left at about 33 when they changed the meaning of the Generation. I tossed the Tower on the floor said I was done and I was. I only went back twice since them to a funeral for my GM and Mother.

The best movies ever produced were in the 20th. This century has some good films but especially since hollyweird went woke shit all they are putting out is crap. Pure crap.

by new boy inafter being a jehovah's witness for 52 years, today marks my 20 year anniversary of being out of the borg!
i turned in my letter of disassociation on september 18th 2001. it was read to the congregation on september 19th, my wife's birthday.

For a while I have been leaning toward this is a lot of BS. They keep telling us when its cold its just weather but when its hot this is climate change. Its BS. Throw another gallon of gas in the old Firebird and drive.

My dad had an experience that was with a person from Bethel. He came to stay over at his house where he lived with his mom and dad. He got the wandering hands treatment and punched him out. LOL.

Being married to someone of the opposite sex is not a sign they are not gay. I know of many who married someone of the opposite sex so they can hide out or fit in. Their real sexuality is suppressed

I have seen several. When I was a kid we had a KH with a basement and this guy Joe Winestien lived in it. He has passed away I believe. He was about 24 and used to hang around the young boys. My mother told me to watch him that he was Homosexual. Many of the other sisters said my mother was nuts. He ended up leaving his wife and running off with a man.
I had a guy a bit younger than myself who would do things like sit in the back waiting to go in service, He would sit Knitting with his granny glasses and legs crossed like a woman. He was very effeminate. I called him out on it as I was about to leave the hall, not in a mean way but just as a its kind of obvious. He would not deny it and walked away.
The most strange one I have seen were two older sisters, who are either in a home or dead, this was back in the 80s. These two sisters the rest of the cult members would say Pat and Alice are just like a married couple, Alice's is on SS and Pat works and they live in the same home. I was working Floor covering at the time and did their trailer. It was an old travel trailer with a few add on's I had to do the kitchen and this was a very old trailer, it had the old mahogany paneling. I had to move things from the kitchen and to the bedroom which was the old trailer bedroom. There was only one bed and it was not very big. Alice was like an older grandma type, Pat was very butch. She would wear short hair, and the Col, Klebb's from James bond type dress. The old comfortable shoes and same on the dresses. It was obvious they were gay. I had done work for some gays in the town and they knew Pat and Alice and knew they were gay.
I asked my GF who was an elder at the time about it and he said Alices aunt is a lesbian and just making up nasty stories. As per usual the JW cult circles the wagon when anyone attack a cult member.

This cult gets more TV evangelical every day. I hope they die a slow painful death.

I have read that Lake Mead is down so much they have shut off the turbines. So water is a huge issue, there is talk of stopping all the lawns and swimming pools.

Sea Breeze, My brother was married in Vegas.. I took them around and toured the place. Funny he had a huge fight with his new wife and she ran out of the room screaming and the cops were called and I got a call about 3am and they asked if I knew what was going on. I said I was asleep and did not know. Our cousin took them in his room and calmed them down but the cops told me you don't want to be arrested in Vegas. LOL. It was a small glimpse of things to come.
