  Uh oh, promoting materialism? So I take it the WT will be donating their billions to the poor then.

  To avoid being hypocrite-like.

  hi, for over a year, i stopped attending meeting and field service.

  actually, passively disassociated from the congregation.

  but i did not stop reading and doing my own research.

  American accents, Bette Midler, Clinton, Rick Fearon, Strathclyde, Morningside

  i used to enjoy being able to distinguish different local accents, but for some reason i've got worse at it.

  i was thinking about this today when i was listening to bette midler on the scottish radio.

  i thought to myself i quite liked her accent and also that it reminded me of someone else.

  New Field Service Format?

  by jw07 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it seems that hype is the only thing keeping jw.org alive and well these days (that and the money of suckers who continue to fall for it).. at meeting on monday, an elder announced "the faithful slave has seen it fit to change the format of our ministry in 2016, and more information will come".

  i guess the desired reaction is to get jws preoccupied with what those changes could possibly be, and if it means that the end is nearer or some crap.. with that said, i've been suckered into wanting to know what these 'changes' will be.

  does anyone know?

  The format of the ministry huh....hmmm, maybe the witnessing will be conducted from the local coffee shop with tablets left open on the table playing JDubyer.borg videos while the group orders coffee and gossips.

  No Soliciting signage and JW Policy

  by Oubliette in

  2. beliefs

  does anyone have a copy of the boe letter directing publishers to not go into apartment complexes and/or condominium complexes with no soliciting signs?

  i ask because yesterday and buttheaded jw (that obviously had no idea who i am or my past) was knocking on doors in our condo complex.

  he would have had to drive past a sign which clearly states "no solicitation or material distribution.".

  Dangerous dog signs seem to do the trick.

  Many witnesses ignore signs, and any direction given on them.

  They will gleefully find reasons as to why the sign does not apply to them. That they are not there to do the sort of thing listed on the sign, that it doesn't apply to charities like them etc etc.

  Totally maddening people.

  Rivalry among the sisters

  by Esmeralda001 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  when i was first introduced to the "truth", i was so distracted by the love and affection that the members were showing me that i was ready to convert into the religion without thinking twice.

  i was conviced that jws were god's people (i still think some of them are).

  i made it my goal to get baptized as i wanted to be part of the "only" religion that produce such good people.
