  I'm so sorry this is happening to you. One would think you could welcome the JC and expose Snake for what he is to the other elders. Unfortunately, they already know, and Snake has the backing and endorsement of the CO. I'm not sure he's being removed from congregations because of outcry...he may only be transferred to other congregations when his dirty work for the CO is done. I wonder if the light bulb will come on over Sparky's head?

  The way young woman dress

  i have really come to realize, the dress code these days is really really interesting.

  young women at wearing their shorts, to the limit of hieght.

  sandles are basically high heal shoes, with a strap to make it look like sandles.

  I'm the father of two teenaged girls. At least in my area, girls dress no more or less provocatively today than they did 20 or 30 years ago.

  My daughters dress nicely and fairly conservatively, but that's not because of scary invisible sky wizards, that's because (hopefully, anyway) I've instilled in them a sense of healthy self-respect.

  In short, I'm not really sure what OP is talking about. I know when I was 'in' I heard all the propaganda that the world is in decline and violence, lasciviousness and such is steadily escalating...but I've never seen an ounce of proof that this is the case. Median age for premarital sex has been rising slightly in the United States:

  http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/health/2006-12-19-premarital-sex_x.htm

  And violent crimes as a whole - and murders, forcible rapes and most other violent crimes separately - have not just declined in the US per capita, they're declining in actual number.

  To me, just more propaganda and folderol from the WTBTS.

  " 18 your silver and gold will be of no use to you onthat day of the lord's anger.

  for the whole land will be devoured by the fire of his jealousy.

  "Millions Now Living Will Never Die," Predicted the Watctower before 1914.

  by Scott77 in

  2. beliefs

  predicted the watctower falsely predicted before 1914 that,"millions now living will never die" before 1914. its now a year before we hit 100 years mark.

  was god's or god's holy spirit guiding them when they falsely predicted that prophesy?

  what is your reaction or perspective on this big lie?.

  They're (Elders) after me!!!!!!!!!

  good morning and sorry this is so late being posted, it's been a busy week and this is the first chance to post.. our home phone, which only a few people know and have, has been ringing constantly for the last two weeks, and my hubby and i have been ignoring it.

  my parents and the elders are the only ones that have our home phone number and my parents have been just calling my cell because they know we won't answer the house phone...anyways this has been going on for several weeks.. on saturday i get a call from my dad asking me how the asl cong works with recruiting people for their hall...i was really confused because my parents live 90 miles from the asl cong and the people in that hall are too lazy to drive that far.

  so i asked him to explain.. apparently some man called asking if there was anyone in the household who knew asl to help communicate with deaf....so i can't say everything about the conversation because i don't want to reveal details.

  Twelve bucks and you can find out who these clowns are. I would buy it for you myself if I knew where to ship it to.

  Don't let these jerks hold you hostage. Pull the phone out of the jack if you need to - that's what I did with debt collectors in the lean times.

  EDIT: (if they find out your new number, that is - did you buy unlisted service?)

  “New light” Watchtower magazine leaked from organization weeks ahead of general release

  http://jwsurvey.org/governing-body-2/new-light-watchtower-magazine-leaked-from-organization-weeks-ahead-of-general-release.

  if doctrinal explanations are missing from the article, it is because they are also missing from the magazine.. i would like to give my thanks again to my source for supplying me with the magazine article weeks ahead of its scheduled release.

  it showed remarkable courage, because risks were taken.

  Well done Cedars. As always, well reasoned and enjoyable.

  In particular you did an outstanding job of underlining the GB's astounding arrogance. It's a shame that so many trapped in the organization are blind to the power and destiny in which the GB cloaks itself.

  Good question. I have electricians coming by tomorrow so this place could use a mop and broom. Might break out a nice 2000 Heitz cabernet sauvignon (my fave) but not in a 'blood of Christ' way, more like a 'get my drink on with my wife while the kids are still away' thing. Besides, I forgot to buy crackers when I went grocery shopping last week.

  I moved here last year and I don't even know where the closest Kingdom Hall is. I've had a couple Saturday morning visits since coming here but they have no idea who I am - they were elderly, so apparently the smell of brimstone from my house didn't register.

  New Light(TM) is it to keep the JWs interested?

  by punkofnice in

  there always seems to be some new light(tm) trotted out at the long snorefest a$$embies.. do they do it to keep the r&f interested?.

  feel a smug arrogance of being not only in a ''progressive organization(tm)'' but knowing something the ''world(tm)'' doesn't?.

  do it for legal reasons to protect the 8 paedophile loving men in brooklyn?.

  This is how I see it.

  I think they're driven by numbers most of all - the numbers of the almighty dollar, of course, but also the number of publishers and pioneers. The WTBTS is, after all, a publishing corporation and while we're not privy to many of the inside details, much of their tortuous twisting over time has been a response to real or perceived threats to income and head counts.

  Publishing costs and legal impediments used to be the biggest concerns, but in the 21st century the information on the Internet represents the single largest threat to their existence. They know it - hence the ever-increasing hysterics about associating with apostates and visiting forbidden sites. Doctrinally, they are again making overtures to change their history: unfortunately for them, they are aware that flip-flops continue to be a matter of record and that we are adding everything they do to the mountain of evidence against their frankly preposterous claims that they are the faithful and discreet slave mentioned in Matthew. The latest attempt seems to be opening moves in an attempt to divorce themselves from Charles Taze Russell. It's a start, but unfortunately the WTBTS has a lot more doctrinal garbage than that to be taken out to the curb, and the GB knows that they must use small steps to avoid scaring away the flock. The tactics may be sound but they no longer have favorable ground, or time, to execute their plans.

  They realize they need to harness the Internet, but the same browsers that lead to jw.org also lead to sites like this one. The only winning move I could see for the Society is to design and sell oracles - computer tablets with the NWT and a browser that only goes to jw.org with a beastly bit of code protecting against 'jailbreaking'.
