I just watched Matt Damon's 23 minute speech to the 2016 graduating class of MIT in Boston, Mass.
Jdubs think they know it all. They know nothing. Absolutely, nothing. They only regurgitate what their high school attended, 7 dumbo leaders, tell them. To teach high school you still need a college education, none of the GB even have that.
Jdubs don't think. They just follow.
How ridiculous Jehovah's Witnesses are that come and knock on people's doors... to tell them something. What a laugh they are. At least in the photo above, the women are not bothering anybody, setting up under a shade tree. They just look ignorant and are totally wasting their lives for everyone to see.
i am on my dell laptop now.
i can visit this site on my mac, but my personal info doesn't show, there's no signing in or out, and i cannot reply.
there's no interactive access.
Simon, Is there anyway to make the people and information in our old messages, easier to find, such as bringing up all of one person's messages, etc, in a private word search?
Thank you.

Writing letters to the loved ones of the newly departed, has been going on since the late 1960's that I am aware of. All sanctioned and encouraged by WT, JW..org.

well, last monday my mother, a jehovah's witness since her baptism in 1968 died last week because she would not accept a blood transfusion.
she was 76 and had lung and skin cancer.
i know that the cancer would have gotten her anyway, but she was bleeding internally, and was told that she needs a blood transfusion, as her blood count went all the way down to 3.2 (should be 12-14.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss, rrb2016

how long before the watchtower goes bankrupt and goes away?.
does anyone know how the watchtower is doing financially?.
.
The NAME Watchtower is all ready dying. (Lights out in Brooklyn, NY).
The religion of JW..org, is taking it's place. All through this religion's life, IT KEEPS CHANGING.
How will they survive? There is a sucker, religious nut, lost soul, born every minute. And when an authoratian figure tells them to do something, they do it. We have seen JW..org shamelessly buying, selling, begging for money. ATM's, you say at an assembly? You betcha. Donation button... everywhere. They are GREEDY. They like having POWER over people. They will suck you dry, then cast you aside. They will USE YOU to get what THEY want.
The leadership of JW..org is ridiculous. 100 years of God's rule on earth, but ruling Invisibly??? from the Heavens??? from 1914 - 2014 and what did we great?? A great encouraging, rebel rousing talk from the Governing Body??? NO! We got a rant about tight pants, colored socks and women wearing spandex underwear! That talk was Holy, Holy, Baloney!!! The audience knew it, we knew it, but the sheeples are held in by FOG. Fear, obligation and guilt. Or else they are of the sociopaths persuasion. At a committee/judicial meeting, "... Now tell us, what did he/she/it do next? When you took your clothes off...Were you excited? How excited?"... and all sorts of improper questions.
JW..org is disgusting and LIARS. Geogffrey Jackson speaking at the Australian Royal Commission 2015, was not trying to help any poor, raped and abused JW..org child. NO. He was there trying to confuse the issue with red herrings and actually lied under oath. He was not going to be the one to let millions/billions of our donated funds go out to abused adults trying to stay sane. Abuse happen in JW..org Land??? Not that he knew.
JW..org will continue. In exactly what form, who knows at this point. They seem to be trying out mainstream evangelicalism. Will they just be another TV religious show in the near future, after selling off most or all Kingdon Halls? Possibly. They will sanction 'new light' and add birthdays, if that will garner them more adherants, or keep what they've got. They really don't care what they teach or how they do it... just as long as the money flow does not stop.

finish school.. finish my apprenticeship (why are you doing that brother karter you will never finish it in this system).. buy a house.. pay the house off.. karter..
Like St George of England, I was a born in. I only woke up 4 years ago. As a little girl in the 1950's, I was told so many untruth's, as gospel. Everybody was older, and taller, and talked with such conviction. Absolutely, Millions NOW LIVING WILL NEVER DIE. That was a huge misguiding LIE WT! Absolutely ridiculous statement, when you look back on it. I heard it from Franz. I heard it from Knorr. I read it hundreds of times for decades in their own liter-trash. Yes, I was a Jdub zombie, just the way WT/JW..org like their audiences to be.
I heard the "You will never go to school"? Huh? I was so looking forward to kindergarten. Went. Yay!
Is WT/JW..org interested only in their own advancement when they say: You'll never go to school or shouldn't get higher education to further YOUR life. WT says work for us for free! Huh??? I knew older ones in the 1950's, who never graduated high school, didn't get married or qualify for a good enough job to buy a home. The Big A was right around the corner! They told us this from the platform, every week, like it was the Boogie Man come to get us. All along it was just an age old scare tactic, to get us psychologically strung out, so we would listen to the strongest/loudist voice, in the room. If you are only allowed to attend their 5 meetings a week of brain washing tactics... you will become... brain washed.
Everything I have done in my 66 years, wasn't supposed to happen, according to WT/JW..org's teachings. WT/JW..org, you ARE BIG FAT SELF RIGHTEOUS LIARS!!!
So anyone who is lurking, please wake up NOW, get OUT, before WT/JW..org rules and ruins your life.

About the only thing Geoffrey Jackson does for himself is wipe his own behind. At least I hope no dedicated Beth hell zealot zombie does it for him??? Yikes.
How can someone who has all his needs (and wants) taken care of, say... anything... to anyone of what they should or could buy with their hard earned cash?
Frankly, he makes a fool of himself. Why? Didn't he think, suspect, that his audience expected to hear great spiritual things from him, a GB leader, not stupid comedy jokes. Maybe... Maybe he didn't have any great spiritual things to spout...?
Maybe he hadn't heard God's voice, talk to him, that day... So what you gonna do? Tell jokes?
Bizarre.

I met Dick Gregory in the 1960's. I am trying to remember if it was before the Watt's Riot, or after.
My Dad had done some work for him and Dick had gifted him with a painting. After it was framed and on the wall, Dick stopped over to look at it.
Dick was tall and atheletic then. No beard. Didn't ramble. Never heard him say the n word. Was polite.

i found out this morning that my brother died last night, he was also an ex jw, 73 years old and died of heart disease and kidney failure.
it was not totally unexpected, as he had been in poor health, but it's a blow, especially as i just lost another brother two years ago.
there were six of us, now only four.
It is always hard to lose somebody you love.
So sorry for your loss, LisaRose.
