Fat Girls Guide to Life book
by love2Bworldly inanyone read the "fat girl's guide to life"?
i am reading it right now and finding it pretty interesting.
it makes me think outside the box a little bit about how much money is spent on products for people to lose weight, and how much money saturates the market and influences so much of the media.. the author's attitude is one i try to have-- exercise, be balanced in eating habits, drink water, take nutrition supplements, and don't obsess over dieting & what the scale says or about other people's judgements toward my weight.. right now, i already know why i am overweight-- i am eating to deal with my bipolar issues.

Christmas is WRONG!
by thesaint inyou all should be ashamed of your egotistical selves.
how can you leave god's organization to celebrate the work of satan the devil?
it just goes to show you how jehovah's christian witnesses are correct about how persons will leave the truth for their own selfish desires.. first off, christmas is a pagan holiday and it proves no spirit with the almighty jehovah and his son, the christ.

Disfellowshipping
by Legacy ini wanted to know if anyone on here was df'd or know of any who were...why i ask is because many of the friends i have spoken to, say it's not done, just like that.
it's a process.
i have spoken to a re-instated sister and she said by the time they see you, you are pretty much out.

Protocol Manual on the Effective Investigation and Documentation of Torture.
PCATI argues that “torture is a means of attacking an individual’s fundamental modes of psychological and social functioning” as described in the Istanbul Protocol.
The Watchtower organisation openly practices torture with disfelloshipping on a global scale.

Keeping you ignorant is the Watchtower Society's POWER over you!
by yadda yadda 2 inquite simply, most jw's are scared as heck of ever reading information critical of the watchtower society.
deep down they genuinly fear their 'faith' wouldn't stand it.. ignorance and resisting contrary information is the final defense for jw's.
it is the fall-back position they mentally run to at the slightest bit of criticism.

Watchtower April 1, 1920, pp100, 101
We would not refuse to treat one as a brother because he did not believe the Society is the Lord's channel. If others see it in a different way, that is their privilege. There should be full liberty of conscience.
At the start of this sentence they say they should not do a thing.. and the end they say the very opposite is also fine.
Watchtower double speak at it's best.

Are you saying everything stays here for ever Simon? 13 years is an awful long time don't you think?
Maybe when people register you should warn them that anything they say or do here will be kept for ever ala the N.S.A and not just slam them with the somewhat brusk and curt response as you did to the sincere question above.
People should have some rights over their identities (even if fake) and data. You don't really own the members you know.
You have already made it impossible for anyone to ever clear or delete personal messages and ignored many requests to allow people control of their own inboxes.
What's this seeming hostilty towards peoples freedoms and privacy that you often disply? Is all this data your private property?

shock horror! WITNESSING ATTIRE NOW CONDONES OPEN-NECK SHIRTS FOR MALES!
by steve2 ingo to jw.org right now friends and you will see a young male jw witnessing in a rural setting with publication in hand and - take careful note - wearing a crisply-white open-neck shirt.
bring out the carnival, light the lights: the organ ization is kicking itself into an ongoing casualization of its rank and file.. in the 1960s through 1980s i know brothers who dared to attire themselves sans ties who were reprimanded or worse.

The exact same thing happened to me. I was doing special pioneer hours and was answering up like crazy at every single meeting. Then one day the entire bubble just burst with an enormous POP!
It was memorial week of last year.. just the thought of going made me almost vomit. Not because of God, the Bible, but because of the entire organisation and the people in it and the whole castle of lies simply disintegrated in the same way you described.
It's coming up to a year soon that I have not been to a meeting or seen or spoken to a single person from that congregation. I have not had a single phone call, letter, note through my door or visit. Nothing.
I live less than 2 minutes from the hall and walk past it every day. Yet still not a peep from anyone. It's completely surreal! It's like I never existed.. as though my entire experience in 'the truth' never even happened. It's all so completely bizarre.
I don't miss any of it or any of them. There is nothing to miss. There is no real or rather 'whole' truth there are certainly no love.
If I ever do get a visit or 'invited' to any kind of 'committee' I don't know what I will do. One thing I do know is that I can never see myself ever having anything to do with that group again and in the year that has past I have become a veritable expert in the history of the organisation and all it's falsehoods.
The information I have on them they really would not want in the public domain and I would have no hesitation to get my producer contacts at the BBC to do a highly personal and revealing documentary exposing the entire shameful charade that they are perpetuating.
I suspect that they are aware of this hence the reason I am being left completely alone. They seem to not want to provoke anything. I have no fear of them what so ever and I am certain they know this.
For now I allow time and space to let the offence and anger diminish and regain my full objectivity. But what you say os so true.. once you have seen behind the curtain so to speak.. you can never un-see it. You are changed for ever.

Couple of questions please..
by Dis-Member in1. how can i change and upload a new avatar?.
2. when will we ever have any control of our pm inboxes so we can delete and clear messages instead of them sitting there for eternity?.
3. will there ever be any control of what we post (ie: being able to remove stuff) or is anything we post, say or share carved here in stone to maybe come back and haunt us in 15 years.. thanks...
