Honestly, if a CO had started talking about oral sex from the stage, my friends and I would have been paying extra careful attention. It's as close to porn as I would've ever gotten before I left the JWs.

Virgin or whore complex that Witnesses have made my married life difficult!
by Witness 007 inso was a virgin when i got married but my wife studied later in life and had been married for 6 months and had two boyfriends in her past.
my strict witness mother hated my wife and thought she was not good enough for me.
she thought all worldly women were dirty whores who cannot keep their vaginas to themselves.

Those tweets are a perfect microcosm of who he is: accuse people of something that he has done often himself. And I think he doesn't really recognize it. His filters just do not work. "Gaslighting is what narcissists do," says the guy who spends all day gaslighting people.
This is why he'll keep racing towards the wall. He rationalizes everything he does while pointing fingers at everyone else. He will not even try to look at his actions in the light of his own standards for everyone else. So when he says something so hypocritical, he really doesn't think he's missing the point.

That would be pretty pathetic, if he is using different accounts to read messages from people he blocked. Very funny, too. He wants to pretend that he is above such pettiness, but he cannot help himself. Then he blames other people for his neuroses.
I guess it is a lot like his "my life is none of your business, but sit down while I tell you all about it." This one would be "I am utterly uninterested in what you have to say, now hang on while I log into a different account to read every word."

Hard to justify paying Tibor with money that could be going towards his daughter's haircuts.

If I understand the terms correctly, the numbers under Debt Ratio would corroborate his claim that his company is in very rough shape, going from -85% one year to 97% the next.
(Edit to add: the totals do indicate that it's a fairly small company, though.)

Why are so many Jehovah’s Witnesses Angry and Rude?
by Vanderhoven7 inwhy do you think many jws are hostile and rude?
or is that just my imagination?.

Vanderhoven7: They’re not even supposed to be on here as their leaders forbid it.
I think this is an important part of it. They are so upset at the thought that others are criticizing the organization, that they will violate the command to avoid any interaction with apostates and "enemies." This means that they probably took steps to be as anonymous as possible, and anonymity gives people more freedom to push limits when interacting with others. They feel free to be as nasty as they want, since they are not going to answer for it in their real lives and after all, they are attacking people who are as bad as the Devil and condemned by God to eternal death.
The notion that they are risking their own eternal life hopes for the thrill of arguing on the internet is lost on them, for reasons I cannot fathom. The GB makes it quite clear that they are taking their lives in their hands by reading a forum like this, much less interacting with apostates.

I don't see him as working with/for the WTS because there doesn't seem to be an upside for them. I do not believe that anyone as arrogant as the GB members would be okay with many of the videos he posted. Evans constantly made fun of and belittled the GB, and I can't imagine that they'd be okay with that. If Evans has a big ego, it must seem microscopic next to the ego of men who are treated as royalty by people who believe that they are God's "spirit-directed" mouthpiece.
As for the lawsuit, the fact that he lumped everyone together implies that they conspired to commit a specific crime, not that they each committed a separate crime. So he either knows that the suit was just for show, or he's too dumb to realize that his lawyer took the quick and easy path, which will lead to the case likely getting tossed. He might have a problem if he tries to follow up with a civil action. It would be hilarious for a defendant to insist that he be deposed, just so we end up with video of some lawyer utterly tearing his case apart and ripping his reputation into tiny pieces.

Do you believe in ghosts?
by Country Girl ini am posting this because i know there are many people that have had experiences that cannot be explained by natural means.
i am a ghost hunter, as a hobby.
my hobby is to disprove ghosts.

While I keep an open mind about any metaphysical phenomena, I do not believe that ghosts or demons exist. I'm willing to be proven wrong, but the evidence is almost entirely anecdotal or impossible to corroborate. This is in spite of centuries (millennia, really) of reports of sightings and other experiences.
However, I did believe in them for a long enough time that I am still a bit spooked of the dark, even though I'm no longer terrified of it. But if I watch a good horror film, I'll probably keep the covers good and tight for the rest of the night.

Are you driven by vengeance or Payback?
by Fisherman in“there is nothing more ironic and curious than a trapper being caught in his own trap or a plot backfiring.
ironic justice is the best revenge.” the inventor of the brazen bull, one if the most heinous torture devices in history was tricked to go inside of it and died of the torture he created.. probably one of the greatest movies ever made features revenge as its theme: once upon a time in the west.
sadly in this movie the main character doesn’t rely on ironic justice happening by god or chance.

That's because he was gullible enough to fall for the old 'can you demonstrate how it works' ploy.

Yep, sometimes the simplest explanation is the best one. A man who is trying to salvage his reputation and seems to be having trouble getting his story straight is probably lying. His attempts to deal with every discrepancy just ends up leading to more discrepancies. You would think that just being up front and honest from the start would be the best option, but something tells me that the truth of his situation is so bad that lying about it is the only chance he has of getting through this with even a shred of his 'career' still intact.
