Strange stalking from JW's...Please help

by Toshibabadu in

i just recently stopped attending.

i keep getting messages, emails, texts and voice mails asking if i'm ok. they all say the exact same thing.

it's creepy and a bit scary.

Yes, I have heard of that. We have had a small number text us things like "we miss you...are you ok? Can we encourage you? etc".

BUT, when we text back something nice like "thanks for your message, we are doing really well thanks. Hope you are going well too? If we can do anything to ever help you please let us know! Our door remains open at all times"

They never reply back! It is a case of taking away their control and power in the situation!

Remember that in the witness world, it is US that need ENCOURAGEMENT, and NOT the other way around. So they cant fathom the idea that our lives are going well!

RUMOUR - Regarding future memorials

by Listener in

i heard this on the youtube channel - bad jw round table discussions and i normally don't give much thought to rumours, i did find this one interesting.one of the guys on the channel said that there are plans that 'the other sheep' will be told not to attend any future memorials.he was asked how credible was this and he said that it is talk going around by those in the know, just like there had been those that knew about the fairly recent new edition of the bible being in production.even if this is probably just a rumour, the idea has a lot of merit.

the benefits for the organization outweigh the negatives and would fit in with their current direction.here are some of the benefits, for the org.

that could come from it- the biggest benefit would come from not having to accommodate so many attendants, which are more than double a normal meeting.

Its the biggest event on the JW calendar.

It presents them with the opportunity for hype and activity...there is no way I can ever see it changing.

Great thread!

Yes, another case of history being re-written by the society!

"When we said what we said, we actually meant to say what we now say we said"

The REAL reason I no longer want to be a witness!

So if we just remove the words "exmormon" and replace it with "witness", the pie graph can be perfectly applied to all of us!

(Perhaps someone with more skill can make that up and post it?)

"jesus never said the spiritual food would be perfect"

by nowwhat? in

oh so it's jesus fault the spiritual food hasn't been perfect!

we your governing body are just responsible for serving it!

think about this people, they are saying it was jesus who told us the end was going to come in 1975. then before the 1914 generation passed away no later than the 1990's.

Jesus and Jehovah were just having a bad day when they dispensed such wrong information....

in the latest issue of double-speak, i'd like to highlight these two statements:.
