i've only just stopped laughing.. in my old hall there's a brother who's now claiming to be of the anointed.. he's 28.. i do wonder if he's doing this for attention, if he's awake and messing with them, or if he really is that deluded.
when i was in he was an ms. which surprised even me because only a year earlier than that he was "a bit of a lad", is rubbish at talks and relies on his elder uncle to get him out of trouble all the time.. i guess this now means he's get his pick of jw sisters.
he's been after the same one as the rest of his peers since 2014..
Living in that dub environment of no life, no personal identity constant Jehovah this faithful slave that hypnotic broadcasts with spinning globes and droning voices I'm surprised the number of young people now claiming to be annointed isn't higher.
Hey PE just a slighly off topic thought but would it be posible to wake someone up from their cult indoctrination via hypnosis?
have the bethelites started cooking and doing their own washing yet?
how are they coping?.

Maybe the great fruit heist thing was a final act of stick it to WT rebellion. WT is known for it's petty tyranny after all. A word to the wise though.The only fruit you should leave bethel with is your spiritual fruit. The first rule of fruit club is don't talk about fruitclub.

Seems bizarre to be talking about how grown-ass, able-bodied people are "coping" with (oh the horror!) cooking their own meals and doing their own washing?
probably everyone here knows something about the photo drama of creation.
but i wonder how many know anything about other early watch tower films.. https://truthhistory.blogspot.com/.
if anyone knows where we can find the cedar point films, please let me know.
"truth" history? Oh the irony.
culthistory more like.
Correction: cultpropaganda.
if watchtower has no reason to df ones.
they have just become inactive.
do you all think wt will begin a witch hunt (df'ing) for these inactive ones?
Vienne - the numbers of hours is reported amd counted just like meeting attendance.
Inactive = less overall hours reported, less meeting attendance figures, less RVs.
first, a word about the watchtower’s financial position: nobody (outside the watchtower organization) knows.
the wtbs is not required to disclose its finances, and doesn’t.
we can speculate, but that is all we are doing.
Strangely and sadly if WT collapsed I think many JWs would still refuse to believe that WT is anything other than poor pure persecuted Christ's brothers and continue to pray for them and live as JWs.
Those that are left with the WT security rug pulled out from under them will have to figure it out just like any of the millions of people worldwide leftover from controlling regimes that fell suddenly had to cope and figure it out.
The German people who were in support of Hilter had to figure it out. People are resilient.
That's life.Things change.
i think this screen shot says it all... need i say more?.

Wow, if this new fangled online donation program thingy from the interwebs is successful they won't need KHs at all.

Sail away said it. No. The inactive are demonized and stigamatized enough that most JWs stay away from "weak ones" of their own accord.
in 1924, judge rutherford published an article which referred to the great pyramid as "the scientific bible" and added that measurements on the grand gallery inside the great pyramid confirmed the dates 1874, 1914 and 1925.. 1925 was the famous blowout date for the return of "ancient worthies" about which the judge said, "i made an ass of myself.".
just four years later, rutherford did one of his famous about-face reversals.. whereas previously the watchtower had taught that the great pyramid was probably built by melchizedek, or shem;*.
rutherford now said the great pyramid was constructed "under the direction of satan the devil.
Just more proof of how full of shit Russell and Rutherford were.
