Why I don't discuss Scripture or doctrine
by Maverick inmy fathers mother was a jw all of her life and she die two years ago at the age of 97. my mother and father divorced when i was three and my mother remarried when i was 5. turns out my mother and grandmother hated each other.
so my mother raised us kids religion free.
she figured we could work out the god issues on our own.

Elders decide who is anointed?
by Maverick inon blondies post about watchtower comments you will not hear 03/30/03, a point was brought up about the elder that counts who partake not counting certain ones.
if i understand that right, those with the 'eartly' hope decide who has the 'heavenly' hope.
the society's reasoning is that these partaker might be confused.

Elders passing the buck
by Maverick inone night while riding as a observer with my police officer older brother, we got a 'fight at bar' call.
seem this young, dark curly haired, new york italian ran the pool table on some red necked, local boys.
they, still being piss about the war of northern aggression, did what young, inarticulate, inebriated, men do when a yankee shows them up, four of them grab the fellow and beat the snot out of him right next to the pool table.

Subliminal self-promotion
by Maverick ini thought i would try a little experiment.
i saved all my bound volumes of the wt and was curious as to how mant time the writing department of the governing body made reference to the 'organization' in one form or another.. .
i picked a bv at random and read four watchtower articles, (that was all i could stomach), and underlined each mention of the brotherhood is its various forms.
