Kingdom Hall Phone Calls

For some reason it has been a somewhat rough few weeks. I should not complain.
One of my pals has suffered a stroke and is hospitalized..........he is doing pretty good.....considering. Times are getting tougher.......prices rising........lots of turmoil around the world......wars.....quakes.....unrest.......I had a wicked bout of the flu.......days where nothing seems to go right.............aggravation........weather...........need I say more?

I decided to have a little fun here by revisiting the past.

Several years ago I was involved in lots of religious discussions online........so much that I actually hosted a live chat room on the internet where I bantered back and forth with many people of all walks of life......and from all over the world. It was very interesting and I found it to be entertaining as well. It was a good way to waste time.

For some reason the primary focus was on the Jehovah's Witnesses and what they believe or do not believe. Everybody knows that they do the door-to-door thing........but I had discovered that they were also infiltrating the internet......preying on unsuspecting victims. I must say that while there were some very nice Witnesses online they were overshadowed by a high number of vicious venominous Jehovah's Witnesses and their so-called apologetics. The folks at the door would never dare to act as these did online. Nevertheless, there were many major debates over many specific beliefs and teachings. The world online was full of extremely knowledgeable people and students of ancient languages who each would offer up a pissing contest dissecting contexts and ancient words that have long been forgotten. It was amazing at how many self-professed experts in Koine Greek there were......and how scandalous and overbearing many of the participants became over a period of time.

Regarding Jehovah's Witnesses, the problem was that they were all admonished to beware of the internet and for all intents and purposes stay off of the internet and stay out of chat rooms and not mingle with potential "apostates". Of course, some of them would deny such orders just as some still deny that their organization touted that armageddon would occur in 1975. You know the deal.......they said things and yet they didn't say things.....but some heard what they said and believed it dearly. Today they hear things and go as far as to pretend they were never told or taught such.........lying as if they cornered the market on it. This kind of thing makes for alot of arguments......many of which get extremely heated.

A JW would say what he will online and if you asked a JW at your door about what the JW online said......well......they would say stuff like "you can't trust someone online" or "he's probably not in good standing" or "was disfellowshipped". I once asked a JW at my door if there are any real Jehovah's Witnesses online and I was told "No" that they stay away from it. Go figure.

Because of the dilemma between having JWs online and JWs at the door......I figured that I could come up with a way to let Jehovah's Witnesses expose themselves in a way that nobody would doubt the truth of the discussions. Often, I had been called all sorts of names....apostate.....evil.......the devil.......you name it, I have been called it online.......and I often got called a liar. I would get sent private emails where the message was "how come you know so much about us?". I never got an email that said "everything you say about us is wrong".....yet publically I would be castigated and derided for everything I said or did. There was the ultimate way around all of this. Instead of the online JWs attacking me personally and calling me a liar, they would have to attack their own bonafide JWs in the Kingdom Halls for revealing the truth about their beliefs.

It was easy for the online JWs to deny that they are taught to believe that Jesus is the fallen angel of the abyss...........if I said that's what they believe.........BUT they have a hard time denying their "brothers" who confirm such teachings with their own mouths. I merely provided the avenue for such to happem.

I started making phone calls to various Kingdom Hall across the United States and did it LIVE! in the chat room where everyone could hear. Needless to say......the online JWs were not very happy about it.

Fortunately, somebody managed to record some of these calls including calls by others. I held these recordings on the backburner for many years now and I decided that some of these calls and some of the assorted parodies that I created should be shared with the world.

I have always said regarding the Jehovah's Witnesses and the Watchtower Society that "Nothing does as much harm to them than their own words." And that goes for both the written word and the spoken word.

Here is the first of what will be a series of videos. Feel free to comment about what you hear on the video.

As of this date, I have no information that Jehovah's Witnesses believe anything contrary to what is confirmed on these videos........in other words.......if they have gotten any "new light" recently......hehehe.

In this video the phone call is regarding their "Memorial" which is the only day that they celebrate anything.........unfortunately......they celebrate the DEATH of Christ! Furthermore, you will hear that is it "not advisable" for anyone to partake of the symbolic flesh and blood of Christ which is passed around at the Memorial. These "emblems" are rejected by the Witnesses.

Christians?..............

Jehovah's Witnesses Should Watch This

In this day and age most people want everything to be fast.............cars, food........you name it.......even videos. Maybe it is that many people just do not have a lot of time on their hands and need to hurry to get to the point. But there are some things that just cannot be done in a flash. Jehovah's Witnesses do not become Jehovah's Witnesses in a flash. It does not happen overnite. The video below is not one of those fast two or three minute videos.

If you are a Jehovah's Witness you should take ten minutes of your time and watch this video. If you seriously care to learn anything at all or are willing to try to understand those who leave the cult that you are a part of, then watch the video.

If you are not a Jehovah's Witness but you have family members or maybe a friend who happens to be one, then you too should watch this video.........and maybe even share it with them.

For those who are all too familiar with the subject of this video, you might finally say "Gee.....finally there is someone who gets it"

Those Wacky Jehovah's Witnesses Are At It Again

I realize that for the majority of people on the planet, Jehovah's Witnesses are simply irrelevant and thus they could care less what Witnesses do or do not do. In the grand scheme of things, generally..........people don't know much about them and see no reason to learn anything about them..........and that is understandable. So here I go finding myself mentioning them on this blog again..........why?..........oh I suppose you could say that there is some unfinished business......hehehe.........then again, you could also say that the world of the Watchtower is like a bad accident.......you know.......you just find yourself having to look at the mess as you drive past.

As I stated, most do not know much about them.........and I would take that even farther by stating that even most of the Witnesses don't even know much about their own group. How can a say such a thing?.......well.......I have had quite a bit of experience chit-chatting with JWs for many, many years and this is what I have observed. For an example, you might want to look into some of my past entries on this blog that mention Jehovah's Witnesses and be sure to look at the comments and my responses to those comments. After reading those, I doubt that I should have to explain it any further to you.

I have written about Venus and Serena Williams before (the blog entry entitled "Jehovah's Witnesses Should Read This").............yes......the famous tennis stars.......and I can safely say that of all of the things I have written about......those particular posts have been the most popular. Don't get the idea that droves of people are interested in Venus and Serena Williams and want to see what I have to say about them.........that is not the case. As it happens, whenever somebody does a Google search and enters the names "Venus & Serena Williams" and they also include the term "Jehovah's Witnesses"........BINGO.........the will likely get a link to this blog just because I have written about them being Jehovah's Witnesses. Furthermore, just in case anyone wonders about such things, I can tell you that there are people from all over the planet that seem to perform such a search........yes, I have a blog tool that provides me with some statistics. And before anybody gets the idea that there are thousands of people coming to this blog on a daily basis to read about whether or not the Williams sisters are Jehovah's Witnesses or not..............that simply is not the case. But of the people that do happen to view this blog, the majority get here by searching for the video of "Mrs. Farting Preacher"......hehehe....go figure........and the second most popular thing appears to be the Venus and Serena Williams issues. Okay then........you may be wondering what came in third?........it's a no-brainer........people search for "the end of the world" and this blog shows up. This is just the way things are and I actually have no control over it.

Okay, so I log on and sign in to Blogger and I get myself prepared to write this and I notice that I have a comment from someone that needed to be addressed. I clicked on it and "Lo and Behold" it is a comment about one of my prior postings about Venus and Serena Williams. For the record, I accept and post all comments and the only exception would be those that have inappropriate language. Otherwise, I have always encouraged people to offer a comment, pro or con..........I can handle it........and in regards to people who happen to be Jehovah's Witnesses....well.......I really, really, really, enjoy allowing them to speak for themselves.....hehehe........after all, they always prove my points......often ultimately confirming what they initially deny.

For whatever reason, the big issue with Venus and Serena Williams is that both of them have said publicly that they are Jehovah's Witnesses. I personally see no good reason for them to lie about it and I have no good reason to not believe them. The problem is, as I have written before, that the Williams sisters participate in things and do things that the rank and file Witnesses could never get away with. Do I dislike the Williams sisters because of this?........NO. Would I like them better if they toed the line as the other JWs do?..........No. Actually, I could care less about the Williams sisters and I really, really, have no interest in tennis. I would also say I wish them no ill will. But there are issues with the Williams sisters.........and those issues are more of an issue because of who the say they are....they both say that they are Jehovah's Witnesses.....remember that.........it is their own words. The problem isn't so much that they are what they are, but moreso that the rest of the Jehovah's Witnesses appear to be a bit befuddled about them.

In the past, the Williams sisters have been seen participating in Nationalistic displays such as carrying the US flag at the Olympics.......no big deal, really, except a JW kid is not even allowed to recite the Pledge Of Allegiance at school. There is a certain level of hypocracy in play. I have suggested before that it may well be that the Williams sisters get away with what they get away with because they have quite a bit of money.............and they probably donate heavily to the Watchtower. Remember Michael Jackson?.........yep.......he was a JW too and made Christmas albums with the entire Jackson Family while being JWs........I suppose the money was rolling in to the Watchtower...........but something went awry when Michael made that Thriller video........so awry that he tried to cool the Watchtower jets by putting a disclaimer on the video that it did not reflect his beliefs. Needless to say, that didn't work. Recently, one of the Williams sisters was ticked off during a tennis match and was caught on tape offering up some choice "witnessing". People were shocked at her ferocious display of anger..........such violent behavior......very unbecoming of a JW, right?

And now the latest hubbub has been the choice of clothing on the tennis court...........clothing that was designed by her.............I can't imagine seeing Jehovah's Witnesses going to people's doors dressed like this..........but yet........if they did, they might be able to pawn off more magazines than ever. I suppose I could spell it all out here but there is a YouTube video that takes care of it all.........even to the extent that the man makes a phone call to the headquarters of the JWs, the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society in NY, to ask if Venus and Serena are Jehovah's Witnesses. I found it amusing because I have done that as well in past years. I have called Kingdom Halls and their headquarters and broadcast it to the planet on Paltalk. Nothing is better than their own words...........check out this video:





Perhaps this is what they will all be wearing in the "New System" of things..............then again..........if you call the Watchtower and ask them for the official word on it the answer you may get is "We don't know".



Oh......and by the way.........remember that recent comment that needed to be addressed?.......well, here it is:

"dollface said... i got to the point to believe that you really really hate JW,and i bet you're a exJW, cos you dont dont really have a point on what your talking about,this is between serena ,her sister williams and jehova, not between you and the organization,im not a JW but i can see what's going on, you just hate them with not reason,you want people to leave JW because what the williams just did ? you're so stupid, not a JW can respond for the williams action,only the williams can."

Hmmm, so because I wrote about the Williams sisters I must really really hate JWs? That is amazing stuff. And Dollface bets that I am an "exJW"..........ROFL.......THAT is hilarious. And the reason that Dollface writes that is because I "don't really have a point on what your talking about"...........hehehe.........this is so funny.

Folks, the JWs always come up with stuff like this in regards to the Williams sisters. Rather than confirm or deny, they simply level some lame insults and then claim that everything is between the Williams sisters and Jehovah.........and let's not overlook that it was written that it is "not between you (meaning me) and the organization".............I must point out that to the JW, the organization IS Jehovah, or at the very least their organization is the equivalent. Oddly, this same commenter wouldn't make the same statement regarding the Williams sisters if it were Dollface or a member of Dollface's family doing the things like the Williams sisters do. That's about all I care to respond to. The rest of the comment is just more bilge.

For the record..........it is obvious to me that folks like Dollface are lost souls who have nothing in them to explain anything.............zero. How could anyone ever expect such to be adept at the bible?

And also, for the record, I have never been a JW nor have I ever entertained such a notion.

April Fools Day

Okay.......I know it's been several days since I last posted on the blog.........I simply chose not to do so even though there has been much to write about. After some nearly deep consideration, I figured I would keep the majority of stuff that I would write.......to myself.......and thus probably keep from getting on some anti-government blacklist...........oh......and lest anyone think it is not possible or probable, I DO know the locations of everyone that reads this blog.......and Washington DC comes up often........so there. Don't take that as me being paranoid in any way shape or form.......I am not........but surely you must know by now that I have absolutely no trust in the US government and the thugs that run it. Oh well......I am getting off into a rant of which I have been avoiding so I will get a grip and resist and get back to the April Fools thang.

Happy April Fools Day everybody. What better day than to recognize and give kudos to President Obama..........after all........he sure does know how to round up and capitalize on every fool in the United States.......from now on he should always be remembered as the Leader Of Fools. Without any doubt, we are all going down the tubes. On a side note........go figure that the government deadline for us to turn in our census forms is April 1st........how appropriate.

Also, it probably is no coincidence that April Fools Day this year comes right after the day that Jehovah's Witnesses attend their annual ritual of rejecting the symbolic flesh and blood of Jesus Christ.....known as "the Memorial"..........what a bunch of fools.

So here is to all of the Fools............don't you feel all warm and fuzzy?

400 Blog Posts Later And It's Still The End Of The World!

I never thought that I would still be writing on this blog at this point. Not because the end of the world would have happened by now......or that our government would have banned blogging by now............or that my focus would be on other things. I can safely say that this blog has been about so many things that it has kept my interest for so long. Today is a milestone.........this is my 400th post..................imagine that.

I don't get paid.......I am no member of any club or organization........and I certainly ain't trying to impress anyone by having a blog. While there are so many things to write about and share with the world, there is one particular point for everything that is written here. If you have been reading this blog you must have gotten the concept by now............It's The End Of The World!

The End Of The World is not a quick thing but something that has been going on for a long long time...........and lately, it's been speeding up its process. Every indicator you can imagine........every sign has been displayed......but not everybody has paid attention.

Here are a few more examples of our demise that I have noticed:

I remember that there was a time when our family bought ice cream from the wonderful Good Humor Truck that would ride through our neighborhood every day during the summer. In business, it is said that a good presentation practically guarantees a sale. Back then, the Good Humor vehicles were clean, well kept, and were eye-catching.....there were no other trucks like them..........one of a kind........and that jingle of the bells told everyone that ice cream was coming down your street and you needed to get your money ready........"Wait A Minute!" we would scream as we ran home to get some change..............ahhhhhhh it was wonderful..............but time has passed and a new era has taken over............the new era?............yeah........the End Of The World Era.

This is the Ice Cream Truck as it looks today. Not very inviting at all............very ugly and looking like rolling chaos. Is this progress?........I don't think so............Is this gonna be a fond memory for the kids in the future after they have grown up?..........of course not.........if we make it another twenty years can anyone imagine what an ice cream truck will look like?...........this should be a prime indication of our demise.

I doubt that you will ever see an article in a Watchtower magazine about ice cream trucks.........it is probably not scary enough to get you to join their cult. Take a look at the date of the magazine and then get a gander at the imagery on the cover. Think about it for a minute. Some may say "Oh well.......I don't see anything".......others might say "It's all about history". I can understand both views about the cover................but I see something like this and wonder about it because of the old saying "hindsight is 20/20".

A closer look at this particular image on the cover should make you cringe. That's right.......it's the World Trade Center in New York City.............and there is a passenger jet heading right for it!
Okay.........some of you might say "So What?"...........look at the date..........it was long before the events of 9-11. Those events were acts of terrorism. Now some of you might say "This has nothing to do with terrorism" and some might even try to say that the Watchtower was "prophetic"..................I disagree.

In my view, I am suspicious. It is way too coincidental. I know that the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society, Inc. is a business.......first and foremost. Businesses, if they are good at what they do, invest in themselves.........invest in things that will make their business grow. Think about that. Now imagine what the Watchtower corporations......yes, there are several......invests in. One of their holdings is in a company called Reg-Tech....or RegiTech. It's a company that develops very quiet engine technology for use in things like smart bombs and those very small predator drones that have been used in both the Iraq war and the Afghan war. Some Jehovah's Witness apologists have made all sorts of excuses for such holdings........but have yet to come up with any valid excuse for RegTech pretty much exclusively seeking out and getting Defense Department contracts. To me.......this is an investment in their business. What is their business?...........the End Of The World...........Armageddon. Perhaps the Watchtower doesn't really want to encourage the End Of The World, but I have no doubt that the Watchtower would want to make investments in things that will make it seem like the end of the world is about to occur......at least to its members and recruits. The closer it looks, the better shot they have at convincing the people that answer the door to join their cult. What does all of this have to do with 9-11?.......well.......the Watchtower has been a failure throughout its history in regards to prophecy. I can write about all of those failed prophecies some other time. But because of so many failed prophecies and lack of any prophecies that have come true, I have to look at them as simply as the business that it is. I have no proof......but I sure would love to get a gander the Watchtower money trail. Only then will the truth be known. To refresh your memory........Terrorists have been said to be financed by many entities, of which, some are religious organizations and charities. They get their money from somwhere. It would not surprise me one bit if the Watchtower secretly "donated" to encourage a particular event displayed in their magazine. Business.................End Of The World business.

The Watchtower is not alone. Look at this pre-9-11 advertisement.........stunning ain't it?
It's a Pakistan Airlines advertisement.........hmmmmm......gotta think long and hard about this..................I get the impression that we have all been hoodwinked and are not being told the truth.

Another indication of our demise..................pants on the ground.............surely you have noticed that.

And finally, Yellowstone...............as in the Yellowstone CALDERA. It has been very active lately........in case you hadn't noticed. If this caldera erupts........it is all over, folks.

Don't say nobody told you.

It's The End Of The World!............again..............for the umpteenth time.

It's that time of year.............time for trick or treaters coming to your door for some Halloween candy. The weather has cooled off and all the leaves on the trees are changing colors before they fall to the ground..............well..........some of them...........because some of them never get the message that every year at this time of year, it is supposed to be the "end" of their world. In our world..........the human world........it ain't the end until you are dead. Then again.........the jury might still be out on that one.........after all, I was just at the grocery store and there were two women shoppers, not unlike the two old ladies that you see in the photo above, that could barely walk and yet proceeded to load up their groceries into their Buick and speed off across the parking lot. I don't know about you and how you feel about such things, but for me........this kind of thing sends a chill down my spine. Why? Well........because these old women will be on the road at the same time that I am on the road! Personally, I would like to live as much as I can while I can and I don't need no ancient women on the road driving Buicks.

Aside from the previous mentioned event, as I write this I am reminiscing about the past two months leading up to this week. I have written about the trip to Texas and some other things that were on my mind........but I didn't tell you about the Jehovah's Witness visits in recent weeks. Before I get to that, keep in mind that it is the end of the world again..........just like it was in 1999..........remember this?:

Well.........the year 2000 came and went and we all went ahead and opened up our stored canned food and ate so many beans that Al Gore had to announce a newer more surefire "end of the world" ..........you know...........Global Warming...........ahhh yes..........there is nothing better than a potential world disaster caused by..........well...........farting!. That's pretty sensational.........but it's not really knew. Al Gore just knew that those magazines at the grocery checkout counter make alot of money because of what the subject matter was...............the END of the WORLD! And again.......there was nothing new about having magazines try to scare the crap out of people or suggest that the END was near. The Watchtower Bible & Tract Society, Inc pretty much cornered the market on such things. The difference, of course, being that they didn't put the magazines in the grocery stores............instead, they just keep sending moronic lemming cult members to fan out through every neighborhood and bang on doors and ring doorbells hoping to find some sucker that will take the bait.

Maybe you remember seeing this magazine laying around at the laundromat or in a doctor's office................but that would be years ago.........look at the cover. See the nice old people?, not unlike those two women in the photo at the beginning of this blog entry.......except that the magazine is dated 1984. Hmmm.........1984.........Holy Orwell! Now let us think about that.......if those people on the cover of that magazine looked like that in 1984.........what would they look like today?...............or..........maybe they all kicked the bucket...........after all........today it is 2009 and only two months away from being 2010............25 years later! Most of you that read this will probably think "so what is his point?"............it's okay.....I understand.......maybe you can do a little research on just how long exactly a "generation" is. Easily, the majority of those people on the cover are at least in their seventies. The even bigger point to ponder is how are we to know just when it was that the photo was taken. It could be a photo from 1975............which, by the way, was yet another specific date set for the end of things as we know it.........and yes.......it was the Jehovah's Witnesses that picked that year.........which resulted in the largest number of new recruits in their history. When 1976 came, the result was the largest depletion of their rank and file in their corporate history.

I remember a Jehovah's Witness woman rattling her spiel on the Paltalk internet community chats. She would repeatedly say "Jehovah's Witnesses never advertise! and do not participate in commercial ventures.".................hehehe........such bilge from cult lemmings is the result of them not knowing their own history. Look at the picture........it speaks for itself. If that ain't advertising, then Billy Mays is still alive and selling magazines in Brooklyn.

I must mention that before Jehovah's Witnesses were Jehovah's Witnesses........they were called "International Bible Students" led by "Pastor" Charles Taze Russell. It wasn't until Russell died
that the corporation was taken over by "Judge" Rutherford. Rutherford coined the name "Jehovah's Witnesses" and the Watchtower corporation separated itself from the International Bible Students. As of today, there are still International Bible Students. If you were to ask a Jehovah's Witness today "Who is the founder of the Watchtower Society?".........they would most likely say "Charles Russell". Needless to say, Russell and Rutherford both saw their personal "world" come to an end and they have been dead as a doornail for years now. You can rest assured that neither of them are tossing beachballs around with lions and tigers in paradise.

Bible scholars eh?...........hehehe..........gotta love it. I bet those bible scholars are.......well.......now on Al Gore's payroll.

"The World Has Ended!".......that's what the sign says........imagine that...........and the picture is from 1922. You gotta love those wacky cult groups. Somebody made alot of money hawking this stuff.

So this brings us to the past few weeks that I mentioned at the beginning. A few weeks ago I had a visit by a Jehovah's Witness on a Saturday morning. It was a very black gentleman with a heavy foreign accent and he was with two small children. One of the kids handed me a magazine and I began a discussion with the man. It turns out that he was from Nigeria. He told me that because I thought he had a Jamaican accent. Anyway, I immediately challenged him with getting him to acknowledge and explain his beliefs that Jesus is the fallen angel of the abyss named Abaddon and why Jehovah's Witnesses reject the symbolic flesh of blood of Christ every year in a Watchtower ritual entitled the "Memorial". Well...........it got real interesting and the two kids were sent to the car to be with their mother. The man had to admit that yes indeed, they believe that Jesus is Abaddon. At first he danced around it until I cited the Revelation:It's Grand Climax Is At Hand! book and the Insight book. He proceeded to divert from the subject that I brought up and attempted to rejoin his pre-planned agenda of the day. I, of course, would not let him continue on that path and kept bringing him back to the Abaddon stuff. All in all......our discussion was a polite one and we both smiled alot. It got to the point where it was time for him to get going and our conversation came to an end. Before he could leave, I reached out and shook his hand and said "God Bless and Have a Nice Day". The Jehovah's Witness said "Goodbye". I then stopped him before he could get to the car and said to him "Why is it that a Christian can say God Bless to a Jehovah's Witness, but a Jehovah's Witness never says God Bless to a Christian in return?" He looked at me and smiled and said "I don't know......why?" and I responded with "You're asking me? YOU are a Jehovah's Witness and you didn't say God Bless either" He then just simply left in the car.

A week later, there was a knock on my door but I had not heard it. The Jehovah's Witness man had returned and left me a note. The note said that he would return at another time to continue our discussion and that he would answer my questions then. Huh? I never gave him any homework.........hehehe..........maybe he was confused. So two weeks go by and it is a Saturday and there is a knock on my door again. It was that same Jehovah's Witness man with his kids and his wife sitting in his van in front of my house. I think we spoke for about 45 minutes and had rehashed the Abaddon stuff and a few other things. I mentioned that I knew he was an elder and I had to explain to him how I knew that..........."because you speak more than an average JW".........hehehe. I rattled off quite a bit about his organizations history and we went toe to toe about blood transfusions............and then..........finally..........he finally started to get to the those questions that are most important to him.

What could those questions be? Maybe you wonder eh?

"Were you ever one of Jehovah's Witnesses?"
No
"Have you ever attended meetings?"
No.
"Are you disfellowshipped?"
I responded with......How do you disfellowship someone that has never been one?"
"Did you disassociate yourself?"
No.
"Are you married to one of Jehovah's Witnesses?"
No way.

Gotta love those questions.

With that, our conversation came to an end. As he walked to his van and got in his car, I followed him. I reached out my hand through his window and shook his wife's hand and greeted her and the kids. I then, once again, reached for his hand and shook it and said "God Bless and have an nice day!"..........and once again.....he said nothing in response. So I did what I had to do and said to him "There you go again.............Jehovah's Witnesses just can't seem to ever say "God Bless" to anybody"

He smiled up at me and stuttered momentarily and then let go with a "God Bless" from his mouth in that Nigerian accent of his.

I looked over at his wife's face and she just smiled at me...........but I could see another look on her face........one where I would have loved to have been a fly on the rear-view mirror on their way home.

Hehehehe.

So now......Halloween in fast approaching.........in fact.......this coming weekend. The past two Saturdays have come and gone and I haven't seen the Nigerian Jehovah's Witness elder any more. Maybe he will come back one day but I doubt it...........I know way too much about his organization and teachings and because he cannot figure out how it is that I know these things, it just doesn't compute with him. That's why he asked those questions.

Hmmmmm.........and to think that I never got to tell him about the "end of the world".

Labor Day is Over.......Now Get Back To Work!

Okay, so maybe you have been wondering why it is that sometimes it takes ole Signtopia a few days and sometimes weeks to put up something new on the ole blog........hmmmm....as I write this, I am now wondering why anyone would be actually checking this blog every day.......oh well.......such as it is, there are so many things to write about........maybe too many things.......there is alot of stuff happening. I could spend each day just writing about everything.......but that would probably bore me.......and you.

I just watched Obama campaign some more tonight. I am still trying to figure out what it is exactly he was saying. Surely, you must realize that when ANY politician opens his or her mouth and utters more than a few words, red flags go up and we all start grabbing onto our wallets. Oh well.........I hope they like the empty wallet.

Speaking of empty wallets.........well.......this moron, shown above, is about as close as one could get to being as empty as it gets..........no.........of course he looks like he eats more each day than one third of the population of France...........I was referring to his brain.........empty as my wallet.
Every time I see this Michael Moore blob in the news, it is always because he is promoting one of his new films. When I see this blob.......I always think of a film, but not the propagandic reels that he puts out. I am always immediately reminded me of the character "Sloth" in that movie "The Goonies". Now who do YOU think he looks like?

Yesterday, the Baltimore County Council voted to approve speed cameras in school zones. I recently wrote about this and I was opposed to it. Needless to say, there were alot of people in opposition to the cameras. Everyone agreed that it is just another money grab..........so the politicians went ahead and approved it. How nice of them. It was reported that only one councilman voted against the cameras..........gee......I guess I should feel all warm and fuzzy now.

Only morons would re-elect these money grabbers.


Oh well........that's it for now........oh sure, I could write some more, but I do have a life.

By the way.........I got another comment from a Jehovah's Witness today..........like moth's to a flame, they keep commenting........hehehe.

Holy Smoke!.......It's Almost Christmas!


Time is flying by quickly. I suppose that the busier you are, the faster time goes........and I can safely say that I have been very busy this past year. Alot has happened in the past year and I can see where it is possible that even more stuff to do will enter the picture next year. I am not complaining.........life should be lived to the fullest......within reason.

Just a few thoughts.............well.......maybe a few of those signs of the end that most people haven't noticed...........

We somehow managed to elect a man named Obama to be President of the U.S..........hmmm....does this mean that we will now have an ObamaNation for a country?.............you must admit that alot of folks already know that the whole enchilada is an "abomination".

It doesn't sit right with me that our new President's middle name is Hussein......this cannot be a good thing.

Is it a coincidence that Obama was touted as some sort of new messiah?.......he has been called Obamassiah by some radio show hosts............and who does Obama select to be his Chief Of Staff?...........none other than someone named Emmanuel........go figure.

The price of gasoline dropped and I haven't heard any reports that there was some sort of sudden increase in the amount of oil in the earth.......what is up with that?

They remade the movie "The Day The Earth Stood Still"..........as if the first one was so bad that people demanded it be done over.............Keanu Reeves as Klaatu?.......you got to be kidding me.

The late news is now an hour earlier. Imagine that. If they start saying that the early news is now an hour later.....look out.......it's almost over folks.

Bob Turk is still mumbling the weather at WJZ TV in Baltimore.

The Ravens had the Steelers beat.......but the officials managed to make some "corrections" and turn things around.............this is no surprise.

Hillary Clinton, instead of becoming President, accepts a job as a Secretary........go figure.........and the Pro-Women's groups are not outraged.

Oh well...............it is time to get ready for Christmas..........

........does this mean that I can expect Jehovah's Witnesses to come knocking this week?

If they do..........I am prepared for that.............but they are not.

Stay tuned everybody........all ten of you.......hehehe.

Jehovah's Witnesses Go Trick Or Treating

I just got back from an eight day trip to Aruba with Supernurse. Fantastic beach, beautiful sunsets, iguanas, spending each entire day drinking Balashi......feasting on unlimited assorted food........and gambling in the casino every night.............needless to say........I had no election, no problems, no stress, no aggravations, no nothing to pester me..........I was one happy man on one happy island. A man has gotta like this stuff.

In the next few days or so, I will be writing here about the trip to Aruba. Unfortunately, as with all vacations, those wonderful days are far too short and we must return home. We returned to Baltimore around midnight Wednesday. I cannot say that I was tired, but I can say that I was exhausted.......I guess my adrenalin decreased rapidly as we approached Baltimore Washington Thurgood Marshall Dixon O'Malley Obama International Airport. I went from mid-80s tropical weather to a very cold 40 degree vacation ender.........blahhhh.

So I spent Thursday "resting".......getting things in order......yakking on the phone.......and giving attention to the dogs. It is good to be home........but it is not always so good to be where home is. Home is in Baltimore and I am back to the world in which I live. The election is fast approaching and just maybe I will get to actually vote this time. Two years ago my absentee ballot was never sent to me........can you say "rigged" election? This time around, I am here and I will be at the polling booth on Tuesday.........I will be right there in line at the poll......standing in line behind the homeless, illegal aliens, non-residents, felons, deceased, illiterate, brain damaged, uneducated morons....that will also be voting. This is the Maryland political tradition and it seems that the rest of the country has followed suit...............ain't it wonderful?

Okay....okay.....I have veered off course and went political on you...........let me get back on track.........after resting on Thursday and getting stuff in order at home, I began Friday with tending to grandkids because their schools were closed. This was not a bad thing.......I love my grandkids and I did miss them while I was away. It was about 10am Friday morning when I looked outside my window and noticed a car had pulled up and parked across the street from me. Three women and a child exited the car and began to scatter and head for the homes in the neighborhood. "Oh yeah!......make my day!"..............this was gonna be fun.......well, maybe not so much fun for whichever one of these people head my way...........let's just say this was gonna be one of those moments where somebody was gonna get an educational experience. Education should be fun, right?

The woman with the small child headed towards the front of my house........and she never got to knock on the door.......I popped the door open and stepped outside before she could even get up the front steps...........this was gonna be interesting.

Here is Signtopia doing one of the things he does:

She says: "Hello"
I said: "How ya doin'?"

She says: "Fine"
I said: "Let's see, you must be one of two things.........either you are with ACORN and you want to get me to vote for Obama.....or you must be trick or treating dressed as an alleged Christian"

She smiles.
I said: "Seriously.....I know.......you are a Jehovah's Witness.......it IS Halloween"

She smiled some more.
I smiled as well.

I said: "What brings you out today?"
She begins to pull a two page tract out of her bag.
She says "We are just here to give out these......."
I said: "I don't want one of those, thank you."
She just keeps it in her hand.
She says: "Its just some information for you about some things......."
I interrupted her and said "Yeah.....but I have some information for you though and I am glad you stopped by to receive it."
She smiles.
I smile.
She smiles some more.
I say: "How old is your child?"
(the kid was standing next to her and kept looking up at me as if he had no clue why he was here)
She says: "Two"
I said: "Two?......He really should not be outside...it is very chilly and he could catch pneumonia"
She nodded and smiled.

She begins to turn around to walk away but she is on MY time now and I plan on continuing the conversation.

I said: "I am very familiar with Jehovah's Witnesses"
She smiles and her eyes light up.
I said: "I have two sisters who were Witnesses......one was for over 30 years....but they are both out of it now."
She says: "Oh.......you had some bad experience"
I said: "No, I always have a good experience.......I have never been a Jehovah's Witness"
She smiles.
I smile.
I say: "Let me ask you something."
She says: "Yes?"
I said: " I have conversed with Jehovah's Witnesses countless times. I have had many discussions, particularly on the internet, around the world......and I have noticed that the majority of Jehovah's Witnesses do not seem to realize a few things that they are being taught."
She looks at me curiously and smiles and says "Oh?"
I said: "Yes.......it seems that the rank and file Jehovah's Witnesses are not fully aware that they have a very peculiar view of Jesus. Aside from believing Jesus is NOT God and that Jesus is also Michael the Archangel, they don't seem to realize that they are taught that Jesus is also the fallen angel of the abyss named Abaddon."
She smiles and says "You must have had a bad experience"
I said: "No.......I know you have studied the Revelation, It's Grand Climax Is At Hand book......it is in there........and the Insight book has it as well.......and maybe one or two other of your books that you have studied."
She smiles and says "Yes"
I said: "But you never realized that the Watchtower view of Jesus is that he is the fallen angel of the abyss?"
She says: "You must have had a bad experience"
I said: "Not at all.......I do not "study" those books, but you do"
She smiles.
I said: "For your information, you can read about Abaddon in your bible......it is found in Revelation 9.
She smiles and says "Maybe you have a different translation of the bible"
I said: "No......I can use any bible"
(that line had to send a chill up her spine)
She smiled and said "We have a translation......."
I interrupted her with "I know.......but I would question the validity of that translation since they keep the translators names anonymous. It is hard to verify any qualifications of anonymous people, wouldn't you agree?"
She smiles.
I said: "One other thing I have noticed........your organization has this thing called a Memorial every year."
She smiles and says "Yes....the Memorial"
I said: "Yes......the Memorial......The Memorial is the only ritual, I have found, that is exercised.....where the symbolic flesh and blood of Christ is rejected by all. In fact, your organization very specifically encourages and advises its members to reject it."
She ain't smiling any more.
I said: " I cannot find ANY Christian organization that would teach rejection of the symbolic flesh and blood of Christ. I can only find Satanic groups that would do that. Isn't that a bit odd?"
She says: "You must have had a bad experience"
I said: " In your bible, if you look at John 6:53-56....you can see where Jesus was speaking and said that those who do not partake of his flesh and blood have "no life in them".........and he wasn't speaking to just his apostles......he was speaking to a crowd."
She smiles.
I said: "I found that to be very interesting.....you might want to research that."
She smiled again.
I said: "Oh......and another thing.........How is it that Venus and Serena Williams can do what they do and participate in patriotic stuff like carrying around the American flag at the Olympics, but YOU cannot get away with even reciting the pledge of allegiance in a school?"
She smiles and says: "I am sure they will be dealt with......Jehovah sees everything."
I said: "I am sure Jehovah DOES see everything.......even I could see them with the flag. I wouldn't think that He is asleep at the wheel, do you? I mean he would treat the Williams sisters equally as He treats you, right? He wouldn't give them different rules than He would give you, would He?
She smiles and says "No"
I said: "Do you suppose that it is because they are celebrities and have donated tons of money to the organization?"
She says: "It was nice to speak with you."
I said: "Before you go.....I have one other thing I need to ask you"
She smiles and says "Yes?"
I said: "You came here to day to my door.......was there some sort of message that you wanted to bring? Is there something you would want to tell me.....share with me.....some sort of message?"
She thinks for a moment and says "It's a message of hope for life from the bible."
She smiles.
I said: " Ahhhhh.......hope for life from the bible."
She nods.
I said: "It seems to me that it was ME that gave YOU that message and it is found in John 6:53-56 and the last time I checked...........yep......that's from the bible!"
She smiles.
I said: "Well, you have a good day now, and get that kid out of the cold air before he catches pneumonia."
She walked away.
I said: "God Bless ya!"

The woman then walks across the street and tries knocking on some more doors. Needless to say, nobody was answering their doors. All she could do was leave her pamphlet. Hopefully, her conversation with me would click..........nothing else to remove it from her mind.
After a few more doors.....she headed back to the car and, with her child, sat out of the cold air waiting for the other two women.

About fifteen minutes later, the other two women got back to the car and they drove away. I wonder if the woman with the child told of her conversation with me.

I am sure the others couldn't help but notice how much time she spent speaking with me. Maybe somebody gets the message...........then again........maybe they were disappointed that they didn't get any candy on this Halloween.

You have to wonder about people.

Jehovah's Witnesses Should Read This


Over the years, I have had many conversations with the magazine pushing Jehovah's Witnesses. Both in person and online.......especially on Paltalk. While it has been a relatively long period of time since I have participated in discussions on Paltalk, I was recently reminded of those nights on Paltalk where the subject of patriotism often came up.

As you know, we have just had the Fourth Of July weekend and the Olympics are about to begin soon. Also, Venus and Serena Williams are in the news again with the Wimbledon Tennis championship matches. So how does all of this bring up those nights on Paltalk?.....well.......because Venus and Serena Williams are "devout" Jehovah's Witnesses. No big deal to the average person perhaps.....but......to those who have had any kind of dealings with Jehovah's Witnesses, either in the family or from having discussions about cult groups, this entry to the blog should toss some "new light" or at least a brighter light into their abyss.

Abyss........hmmmm........bottomless pit?

This picture reminded me also of the Jehovah's Witnesses. Sometimes people are told to believe certain things as truth without question or verification. No proof is needed for those who follow a bunch of geezers who claim to be the voice of Jehovah. While they once touted the words "Make Sure Of All Things and Hold Fast To What Is True".......when dealing with a Jehovah's Witness, you quickly discover that those old geezers never meant what they said. When presented with documentation....evidence which not only supports but verifies the facts about any argument with them, they seem to just put on that false smile and change the subject. I have seen this done thousands of times.
As I stated before, Venus and Serena Williams are professional tennis stars and damn good at what they do. They also happen to be Jehovah's Witnesses. Why this is worthy of mention is that every Jehovah's Witness would tell you that Jehovah's Witnesses do not get involved with "worldly" matters such as politics, wars or patriotism. Their sole allegiance is said to be to "Jehovah". Surely, everyone who has ever been to a school is aware that if there is a Jehovah's Witness child in the class, he cannot participate in any holiday activities, birthday celebrations, or standing up with the class for the Pledge Of Allegiance. This is a fact that no Jehovah's Witness would ever deny.

Hmmmmm..........but they DO indeed deny it when told of Venus and Serena Williams, being "devout" Jehovah's Witnesses, and parading around participating in patriotic displays of carrying and waving the American Flag.....smiling.....happy.....and proud of representing their country.

Denial.....denial......denial. These pictures do not lie. I even bet that Venus and Serena Williams aren't fibbing when they tell the press that they are "devout" Jehovah's Witnesses. But how is it that Venus and Serena are able to wave the flag and the rest of the cult members cannot? Any other dub in the bunch would be disfellowshipped or at the very least have to sit before a group of elders and get "counselled" for their behavior. My own moron-in-law would deny or try to excuse these pictures.
This is a big problem for Jehovah's Witnesses. What will they do? The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, the multi-billion dollar publishing corporation that leads the cult, doesn't appear to want to discuss the issue of Venus and Serena. Instead, the bottom feeders are continually subjected to their control. Here is the rub............surely you know that the Jehovah's Witnesses themselves are what keeps the corporation afloat financially. The average Jehovah's Witness contribution is most likely pale and pitiful compared to the money coughed up by those members such as Prince (yes, THAT Prince) or Venus and Serena Williams. Common sense has got to tell you that the Watchtower would not want to cut off such a large amount of money coming in.

Believe it or not, one Jehovah's Witness tried to explain away the above picture by suggesting that you could "plainly see that Williams showed her disdain for having to pose that way by SITTING on part of the flag"! Imagine that! I have heard all sorts of excuses such as, "she must be inactive" or "she must be unbaptised" or even "disfellowshipped".........hehehe.

The bottom line is this.........

Venus and Serena Williams are indeed Jehovah's Witnesses and Jehovah's Witnesses are forbidden to do the things that Venus and Serena can do.

And THAT just so happens to show you one simple example of how the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society is run by hypocrites.

Print these pictures out and save them for the next Jehovah's Witness that comes to your door.............it is far easier to show them the pictures instead of trying to explain to them that they are taught by those old Watchtower geezers that Jesus is Abaddon (Abaddon is the fallen angel of the abyss) and that their governing body were the locusts of the abyss in Revelation 9.........hehehe..........oh........and the Witnesses themselves have the documentation to back that one up........hehehe.

If you have a comment, feel free to comment. If you are a Jehovah's Witness and have another bullhockey excuse for Venus and Serena, go ahead and comment away. I will make sure your words are posted along with this blog entry.

Oh.......and before anyone tries to claim "they carried the flag because it was part of their job".......that excuse won't flush because if that was the case then every Jehovah's Witness that works in a restaurant would gladly participate in singing "Happy Birthday" to customers. You will have to be better than that.
