Indeed. It's getting old. They simply want someone to beg them to stay, to provide reasons they should stay, and make a scene about it.

Rats! That's too bad. And I never got a chance to ask you what you name was all about. God Bless.

Here's Bible Teacher taking his overly self-righteous aim at those he persecutes, and then being hit with the real Truth...

Like a moth to a flame...

I'm pretty sure it was the Jesus-eating thread that did it. What will we do without Bibleteacher's self proclaimed "vast knowledge of the Bible"? He will prove to be irreplaceable, I hope.

Do people announce their divorces from other message boards on the 'net, or just this one? It's a curious phenomenon, don'tcha think? I mean, when I'm sick of the Org, I go away for a while. When I feel like coming back, I come back, and I don't have to crawl back with my tail between my legs or pretend to be someone else in order to save face. It seems like a non-issue to divorce something that costs nothing and doesn't really affect my outside life that much. Right? Am I right?!

Aside from whether or not you think it's silly or vain or whatever, why do you think it's become such an Org tradition?

read the link i just posted above/below... soulsplash's Bible knowledge far exceeds the so-called "BibleTeacher"

It wasn't me!

Really though, if he was going to leave over eating Jesus, he would've left back around the time I posted it. It's been a couple weeks now.

Jesus burger, anyone?

BattierBeMyDaddy said:

Exactly!!!

BattierBeMyDaddy said:

Don't Catholics eat Jesus wafers at least once a week? I'm pretty sure that in all those years I was raised Catholic, they told me I was eating Jesus... hmmm

When I went to church, we had communion every month, and ate the body of Jesus, and drank his blood. Stale crackers and grape juice.

But you know, imitation brands aren't usually as good as the REAL stuff...

All Christians do not think like JW's.

Indeed not. But's it's often too close for comfort. Dogma is dogma is dogma...

I sincerely wish you well. As I've said before, this is a group effort. It can be frustrating. We don't all agree, I know.

This is proof that we all connect here because of ONE person, but, not always for the same reasons.

One more thing, I'm not a JW.

ben said:

Wow. I'm suprised. Really. I've been loosely reading alot of bad threads but this moves me to join the thread...especially Ben's attitude.

Now, first off, no I'm not a religious person at all, not a Jehova's Witness, etc.

Second, I actually thought BibleTeacher89 was rather smart. Sure very into his religion, whatever. But he did provide a few threads worth reading over and discussing. He wasn't lazy, immature, clickish or childish, just into his thing.

I suspect, and this is just me that he came here because he perhaps thought he could change a few minds...not that he changed mine, but maybe he wanted to fight for his views on JW. The JW that Prince is now.

I don't think he was a biiig Prince fan but that was okay.

Now what really suprised me here was Ben's attitude towards him.
I just kind of find it suprising in terms of that Ben's actually happy to see someone go. Someone who really just wanted to share the knowledge.

It comes across like your behind the stupid posters who bring up stupid discussions. Now, mind you, yes...maybe I have posted something stupid or mindless (do a search) but, I don't know...Ben, you seem like you're setting yourself as someone who doesn't care about people feeling such negative things.

Now Ben, I've emailed ya before and we've had good emails back and forth, you've followed some suggestions, and that's cool and I THANK YOU, but, this attitude MIGHT not win you respect from some orgers.

The respect needed for people to follow the rules. You're the man here and yet, you taunt the ones who leave. That's too bad. It just sets a bad example.

I'm not planning on "leaving" or anything like that at all. All this is really just silly. But I hope other orgers don't start doing the more of the "I'm Leaving" thing because really, does it matter?

But if they do, the cool, down to earth ones, the humble ones, the ones who actually just want to talk Prince, good or bad, fun and positive ones who contributed, shared knowledge and ideas, helped each other, don't get taunted at the end by the actual people who put together the site. It's like a kick in the ass out the door, that's just not cool and simply disrespectful.

If some one leaves, too bad. No matter who it is, if they "leave" the org with such a bad taste it just reflects the management.

Tsk tsk.

Bibleteacher89, it is really unfair of you to call us
demons just because we are not JWs.

God loves Everyone, When I was a teenager and studied about the JWs, I told myself I didn't want to belong to a religion where everyone thought that they were the only ones going to be saved and everyone else was going down in everlasting destruction.

The bible can be interpreted in many different ways and God doesn't hold it against anyone.

I just hope the JWs don't influence Prince to leave his gift and the people.

well said flyingcloudpassenger.

but you know how it works on the internet. Most people literally write down what they are thinking at the moment. While in 'real life' genrally even the most harsh ones would stop to think twice before they insult someone in public, because they very well might get their ass kicked, literally or figuratively... on the internet this threat is not really present, especially not when the moderator agrees...

which I agree with you, is not setting the right example.

You know, the org is going through some changes. Changes usually go with (some form of) 'suffering'... And suffering usually mainly happens to the ones who are in the minority.
Everybody in here seems to be siding with one or other sides to try and find the majority and then set the rules. But I think that 'we', the princeorg 'community' is not there yet.

Come on, are these people serious when they post "LEAVING THE ORG"??? eye mean, eye'm sure some people can get offended by some things, but listen

Take a TV for example.. there is some good stuff and some really bad shit on it.. but u have a remote, and a button to change that, or avoid such things.. but just because you see something bad on it.. doesnt mean u pick the tv up and throw it in the trash!!

And if anyone else "leaves".. quite F*cking announcing it..

Bibleteacher89 said:[quote]I have to leave this site.

u must reach out 2 the sinners...

if u havent displayed non selfish intentions to the sinners u will b saved.


isnt there a flock of sheep waiting 4 u

If you were not going to rant, why not stop here?


Are you saying that if you're godless you're an imbecile? Well, it's better to be an imbecile and think for myself than being an imbecile that only repeats what it's told.



And then what? Hide the way you do?



If you ever want to discover the real truth by yourself, climb out of your protective cage, open the door and walk into the world with an open mind (if you still can), and be pleasantly surprised.

As Gordon Gano of that fine Wisconsin based band, the Violent Femmes, once said: Please, please, please do not go!

Oh fuck it, you should have taken your bible thumping, scripture quoting, Left Behind reading ass and beat it a long time ago. Did Jehovah tell you to let everyone know you were leaving? Tell me, doesn't your orgnote function work or did you just need the attention of an "I'm leaving the Org" thread because you are a pathetic and sad little person? Pray to Jehovah for some balls.

In conclusion, see you in a few weeks when you make your triumphant return.
