JWs target retirement homes
by Scully inin a recent post (http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/67537/1051937/post.ashx#1051937) new directives to congregations by the wts included: it also suggests that the owners of all local old folks homes be contacted to provide a "free weekly bible discussion" to all elderly who want to attend in the home.
this is to be a planned weekly event to increase the number of studys pioneers hold and "provide a valuable service to the community" the society expect to see bible studies go up by 25% this year.. .
well, it is nice for us to get this heads up from the brothers?, isn't it?

Makes perfect sense!!!
Can you imagine how much dough will flow in if they convince the old folk at the end of their road to donate money, etc., for the good of the only Organization God uses on earth?!
Quite the scheme!!!

A crazy thought....Please humor me!
by Doubtfully Yours ini just got this thought that we're like a huge soap opera to god and other spiritual beings.
if the almighty makes it all perfect and joyful, then how the heck will he/they get entertained?!.
in other words, the almighty powers that be aren't interested in the least bit in making things happy and perfect for all because we're like a huge spectacle for them to watch for ever and ever.. alright, there goes my sanity for today.. dy

Checking out for now!

The Process Starts Early in Childhood.
by Blueblades inthe process starts early in childhood:.
no playing with children of other faiths.. no reading of non-watch tower books.. no birthday parties.. no holiday celebrations.. no christmas presents.. no easter egg hunts.. no halloween activity.. the list goes on and on .this ensures isolation that brings almost total separation from all others for whom christ jesus died.. the feelings of "persecution" begins early in the teen years:.
no saluting the flag or engaging in any religious activity.. no school sports, plays, or social activities.. no close association with "worldy classmates".. and before "new light", no vaccinations.. the young person stands out as "weird", "different", and this by design.. continuing in this process means rejecting of normal relations with neighbors ( fellow schoolmates ) instead of relationships, the young witness is involved in multiple indoctrination sessions and public displays of religious activity ( street corner and door to door work ), which locks him or her into the control of the watch tower system.. further, the witness must associate only with other members, date only other members ( "a chaperon" was required under fred franz ).marry only other members, ( earlier marriage was discouraged ) but if he or she does marry and has children, they must be prepared for the cycle to be repeated.. this lifestyle robs them not only of the joys and delights of childhood, but also handicaps their preparation for a normal life.. from the "four presidents", edmond c.gruss.page 71,72.. i know how true this is , having raised my children,from birth to adult-hood according to the society's process of raising families in the indoctrination of the watch tower.

I remember vividly back in the early 80s this sister telling me that she won't have to worry about her baby boy going to school because Armagedon would come before then; the boy was like 3 years old then. He's now married, with a 3-year old son of his own.
That sister hasn't learned a thing from her own experience, though. She still has those silly expressions of urgency, and that the New System is right there in front of us, etc.
Whenever I find fellow Witnesses that express urgency in some way, I make sure I tell that sister's experience among others I recall. I've gotten myself so well disliked over that!
What a crock, I tell you!
