Sometimes I think Jehovah's Witnesses overuse the word "historic"
by slimboyfat inat the beginning of the may broadcast stephen lett said this was a historic broadcast.
he explained that every member of the governing body had hosted a show and they were starting over again.
that was all the explanation he gave.

So that explains why the Australia Branch is now "putting out feelers" for a new lawyer. -

Yeah, "historic" as in WT trumpet blast kind of "historic" also known as delusions of grandeur.
In years to come "Grumpy Cat" will be considered more "historic" than any WT announcement or event.
The WT doesn't get to decide what events are "historic" history does!
They overuse the word "truth" as well.

JW sisters reaction to the cutbacks

I think WT operations will become such, that eventually everything can be controlled remotely from the US or maybe some secret undisclosed location. We all know how paranoid they are, couple that with the fact that now they actually have reason to believe people/victims/lawyers are in fact out to get them and I can see them making strategic withdrawals all over the globe. -

An elder bought my son a suit
by Clambake ini guess being two months old and coming to the kh in his onesee was kind of offensive .
how rude of me.
i am thinking about returning to him.

Hey clambake, you can buy pacifiers with moustaches on them, would look great with the suit 😉
Tell the guy he only wears his moustache pacifier with his new suit, and he'll counsel you to stop dressing the baby in the suit.
You gotta fight fire with fire with these people. Beat them at their own game.

Which bible character do you hate the most?
by Bonsai inthe more i think about it, the more i feel an extreme dislike for the apostle paul.
he was on par with hitler in his treatment of the jews before he "saw the light".
he replaced jesus teachings of love and mercy with a more legalistic, pharisaical concept of devotion to god.. any evil person can come to believe in god and worship him if the scales were literally and miraculously removed from his eyes.

Ahh.... the bible, so many jerks, so little time. -

but everyone else does.. i have a couple .... first, days of the month.

The whole time I was "in the jw compound" was like I was "sick that decade" re world events and current affairs (which interest me a lot BTW.)
I have a theory that whilst being a dub we severely underutilize our brains memory and learning capacity. It makes me think of an electronic device that is always charged when the battery power is at a certain point and after a while the device will stop working at that point even when there is still power left on the battery. Because it has been trained to stop working at a certain point never allowed to "max out" as it were so it's capacity becomes restricted.
Anyway, probly makes no sense but my excuse is, I get my left and right confused also, maybe it's a female brain thing 😮

LoveUni - "...hard-boiled or soft-boiled?" Probably scrambled, the weather being so bad and all.
Actually the guy in the vid (wish I could remember his name) reckoned it was to hatch them when the ark landed.
Sort of like a Jurassic Arc situation. LOL!!!

ATT: WARNING
by EJ257 inplease be aware of everything that is happening around the world at this moment in time.
this goes to anyone, ex-communicated, removed, serving, believer and non.
at this point in my observations i have realized many religions/ideologies know there is some sort "end of time" or a transition into a new order of living in this earth.

EJ257 - you say "...in terms of biblical honesty this religion is completely correct in the context of the bible."
You haven't researched the WT's record of "honesty" then.
