More fb delusions
by Lostandfound inmore fb words from the deranged.
the origins of these holidays is so wicked..but satan has blinded the many into thinking its cute and fun..he has mislead them and people have allowed themselves to be fooled.
all holidays are just as wicked and filled with pagan worship..santa claus, trees, presents, valentines day, birthdays...etc.

JW Facebook puriven garbage
by Lostandfound inbelow is an example of the pure cliche driven and meaningless posts by witnesses to witnesses on facebook .
it was truly a blessing from jehovah that your original plans .....didn't work out, because instead our family was able to enjoy a spiritually filled morning with ,spiritual food and spiritual entertainment and singing praises to our glorious god, grand creator and loving heavenly father jehovah was a memorable gift.
he has truly provided a perfect example of christian brotherly love through his son, our savior jesus christ.

Interviews to select new Governing Body members
by Lostandfound inimagine the scene, a comfortable conference room in brooklyn hq, with a round table with a handful of current gb members on one side.
a lone chair opposite is for the prospective new gb members to sit and be questioned as to their fitness.
lett asks, "have maintenance fitted your room with new light bulbs?".

Watch Tower Farms ?
by Lostandfound inmay have missed this somewhere, but if bethel not providing meals anymore , what is point of the farms?.
or are meals still provided with simple self service now, without the waiter service of decades?.
seem to recall uk farm disposed of years ago as it cheaper to purchase requirements rather than sustain farm and its workers, was that the case?.

Suggestions Please
by Lostandfound inmy daughter is an ex jw as are all my children and my wife.
she works at university and as seems to be the case with uni staff, always looking for another degree to obtain.
she has had some suggestions and is keen on something along the lines of research into cults such as wt and scientology, more specifically why so many former jws fo example, are living with the need to destroy and oppose quite loudly the wt.

What you are sacrificing is beyond value
by Lostandfound in"what you are sacrificing is beyond value".
saw this line in a topic by chook to whom thank you, that one line sums up the practise of shunning and disfellowshipping.. chook thanks for this crystallising of all our thoughts about these things.. though this thanks and quote deserved a new topic..

world cult that is long past it many expiration dates of it's making.
by Lostandfound inbrokerback watchman used the phrase "world cult that is long past it many expiration dates of it's making.
" and it got me looking in fridge, sell by dates all original factory mark, not extended by dairy or butcher.
if they tried to change milk that expired in 1975 to have a current sell by date that kept miraculously extending itself, people would go to prison, overlapping sell by dates milk would stink.

A wicked and twisted generation,...teaching and more
by Lostandfound ini started to see daylight, not new light in '95 after years of fred franz inspired but not inspired by any superior being, fantasy writing, revelation book was a classic, must be entirely replaced now as none of it's grand climax occurred.. no idea who are writers today, but they seem to stumble on trivial "new light" as they meet almost daily.. has any official disavowing of fred's wild dreams been done, or do they slip new light out like antidepressants, no mention of any wrong previous teaching, but infer that flock benefitted from jehovah misleading them, and giving clear evidence that the governing body is no more spirit inspired than fred franz's lunatic delusions?.
the religion today bears no resemblance to that which i joined in early 60s, then severe counsel for printing out to read scriptures as such became available, view of social media as almost 'the unclean thing' gone and embracing it as if it only way.
my parents and in law parent are all dead, but would never have wasted all their lives serving today's religion.. money needs at every opportunity rammed down throat of the already giving, to make up for lost literature receipts.. turning assembly food service and literature costs to donations portrayed as a charitable work, when in reality they just dodging sales or vat tax.. congregation assets deeded to wt, how low can they go?.

Chelmsford Opening in September
by Lostandfound injust had an email which shocked me, "chelmsford ready to open in september".
however not the chelmsford but the upmarket department store john lewis, together with their very upmarket food store, waitrose.
so some progress in chelmsford but not what we were expecting.. john lewis a bit too dear for bethelites but handy for those visiting new bethel to chill out in.
