  Unbelievable KMS example

  2. beliefs

  i've been to the kingdom ministry school (for elders) recently and can report that it is mostly the usual mix of cliches and platitudes.

  several letters where basically just read through one line at a time.

  one point early on though almost made me laugh out loud.

  for the december monthly broadcast instead of jws from around the world waving to you and items of how to shun people we will have to make do with repeats of of old gilead videos that have been on the jw website for a good while.

  They'll never run out of content completely I don't think, they'll just hire some worldy content creators for the website and just say they're JW.

  Besides, if they're good at anything it's recycling crapola. They've basically been adapting the same crap every decade for years now.

  The end of an era ......

  i have written some time ago, about how the religion i grew up in no longer exists.

  i was an 80’s jw kid who became a pioneer then a bethelite.

  they have new meetings, new elder roles, new acronyms, new core teachings, new songs and even a new bible.

  Always wondered why they chose that garish red for the colour.

  Anyway...

  The Watchtower is dead. Long live JWdotborg.

  Not really, but isn't that what you say when one monarch passes and a new one is crowned.

  They need to prove to ... who? Their critics? that they are actually christian rather than Jehovian in the only way WT knows - write a propoganda book about it and make the members study it.

  "See we love the other J-Dog, and we even wrote a book bout it 😆"

  The '' other and remaining '' Faithful and Discreet Slaves are '' useless ''

  faithful and discreet slave parable.

  matthew 24:45-47 "who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?

  happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so.

  Yes I see this as a problem for them what to do with all those pesky extraneous annointed?

  That means that each GB member represents about 20571 of the 144000 annointed by proxy.

  Considering at the moment any baptized witness in good standing can claim to be annointed I'm pretty sure that would really tug the nuggets of the GB to know that barn door has been left wide open.

  I can see a few ways to close the "barn door". They could call new light and say the number 144000 isn't literal it's symbolic and representative of 7 could be a stretch but hey they pulled that overlapping gens crap and the brainwashed masses swallowed it.

  Considering there is advertising everywhere and hard to avoid why don't the GB just advise JWs to consider poking their own eyes out for Jehovah and be done with it.

  Attendents sit at the best seats

  well it's been awhile since i got angry and wanted to post on here again.

  last week's watchtower about the subject of love had something to say about the hard working attendants.

  it seems that they are choosing to sit in the best seats at the convention.

  The most petty of the petty tyrants aka "attendants" were not married, had no kids, no clue and no heart.
