I'm seeing a lot of parallels to this with the tight pants conspiracy. Hey I can see what your saying but to say that it was deliberate or in fact just someone with an over active imagination is another thing.

JW Friend was Married this Weekend. Tutto è bene che riesce bene.

by objectivetruth in

a close jw friend of mine, got married this weekend.ever since he and i meet (13 years ago) when we were both 18 we've been close and we've experienced different life experiences together.. our qualities, have complemented each other well over the years..he the voice of responsibility and reservedness, & i the voice of spontaneity and passion.i taught him about life and he taught me about perseverance through trial.. i care about justice, he cares about reputation.he is a better person then i will ever be, but so stricken by society.. i always stuck my neck out for him, but our friendship was the thorn in his reputations side.he was on the path to mts, and i was on the path of frivolity.despite all this.. when the 2 of us were together, free from the scrutiny of the outside world he was himself, and he was a great friend.

though naive about much, he always tried to do what he could to be a friend.. i was there when he and his now wife first started dating.. i envisioned him marrying her, and my wife & i spending many enjoyable times with them as a couple.. shortly after they meet my wife & i learned ttatt.. i explained my findings to him as i did with all my friends and family.

he being a person, whom i perceived to have great deal of biblical knowledge, i expected valiant effort coming from him to "help me" see where i had erred.all i got was a email with 3 irrelevant watchtower articles & some even more irrelevant scriptures.. i would have surely been his best man, but instead another mutual jw friend was asked.i am not da'd or df'd but this is the pseudo non-invitation that he sent :.

In this country there have been 3 incidences of sex abuse involving JWs that have made headlines, and we are a very small country. One of these cases was very high profile of a notorious criminal involved in a murder trial.

A powerful JC recording from 1984!

by Island Man in

this jc from 1984 features a brother and his wife, who were evidently about to be df'd for apostasy.

but the brother knew his ttatt well.

the elders really couldn't muster any half-way convincing arguments to refute the damning facts on 607 and 1914. even 1975 was touched on.

Ever notice how JW's can attend a talk or Convention and remember nothing?

by Wasanelder Once in

how many times have you asked a jw who has attended a public talk how the talk was, only to be told it was so great!

yet they cannot remember the title nor any one single point except that the brother was "funny" or was good with illustratiions or some other vauge point?

and conventions weren't far off either.

Zoned out mostly and thinking about the tv programs I was missing. At the middle song I always used to go to the toilet just so I could walk and stretch my legs. The last couple assemblies I would sit by myself just so I could drive off when the session started and be back before lunch time to check for hot sisters. Needless to say I'm still single so that didn't work either.

Does Bethel have any woman Medical Doctors?

by VM44 in

the watchtower does not usually place women in positions of authority.. so, does anyone know if there have been any female medical doctors (any type, md, do or chiro) that worked at bethel recently?.

the only one that i know of was dr mae j work, but she was at bethel over 70 years ago!.

I know of a female jw dentist who gets the call for bethel when required.
