recently i saw a link to an article from the st. petersburg times (one of these links on the side of this forum to sometimes old articles).
it was an article about jws and their preaching work.
imo, middle to favorable.. but the one thing was from a door where the jws are saying they're not here to convert anyone, they just want to share a scripture.. what sort of bs is this?
Dubs are trained to be forthright and honest about their objectives, just like the apostles. /s
Acts 2:37
37 Now when they heard this they were stabbed to the heart, and they said to Peter and the rest of the apostles: “Men, brothers, what shall we do?” 38 Peter [said] to them: “Repent, and let each one of YOU be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of YOUR sins, and YOU will receive the free gift of the holy spirit.
Acts 15:3
3 Accordingly, after being conducted partway by the congregation, these men continued on their way through both Phoe·ni′cia and Sa·mar′i·a, relating in detail the conversion of people of the nations.
its been a little over 2 years since i left the watchtower.
in that time the magazines have been cut, the birth of jwtv, jw-org.
carts for preaching, removed district overseers, cut assemblies, demand all the money from the congregations, stop construction and layoff bethelites, change the format of the tmschool .
They actually covered oral and anal at an elders training just a few years ago.
Videos?

I have a hunch - and nothing to base it on - that the annual worldwide report on JWs, currently published in the JW Yearbook, will be changed in some way.
Have they not started to include reporting of tracts?
absolutely terrific.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwglexnsmdy.
Absolutely terrific.
many people are understandably upset and angry at the notion that jws have the right to shun people.
it seems such an obvious "no brainer" cruel and inhuman thing to do - it must be wrong ... surely?.
of course we look at things from the perspective of those hurt and harmed by shunning.
I don't know anything about this or how they have specifically used this law in their favour but I can say that the opposite is also true.
Hence, we then end up with "risk management," whereby business decision are SOLELY based on short-term monetary decisions (eg. Chrysler's refusal to abandon a known faulty hatch design, as well as refusing to recall a 25 to 50 CENT patch - resulting in numerous deaths - see page 8 of pdf http://websites.firecompanies.com/njiaai/files/2014/07/Daimler-Chrysler-Vehicle-Problems.pdf )
The film "The Corporation" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Corporation_%28film%29 ) rightly described them as psychopathic:
"The Corporation attempts to compare the way corporations are systematically compelled to behave with what it claims are the DSM-IV 's symptoms of psychopathy, e.g., the callous disregard for the feelings of other people, the incapacity to maintain human relationships, the reckless disregard for the safety of others, the deceitfulness (continual lying to deceive for profit), the incapacity to experience guilt, and the failure to conform to social norms and respect the law. "
(Sound familiar?)
As was acknowledged by WT in the Aus RC, a person desiring to leave the WT corporation / religion faces an impossible choice.
No person should have to make that choice.
WTS is the epitome of a psychopathic entity.
WTS deserves old-world justice executed on murderous psychopaths.

Simon, at first I almost thought that you were trolling your own site.
Institutional shunning is spiritual abuse, which has become recognized as being as harmful as other forms of abuse.
( See http://www.gov.nl.ca/VPI/types/#5 )
IMO, one of the absolutely most insane court decisions of all time was when the US Supreme Court decided that corporations are persons (and therefore have some rights ??? ).
Although WT exploits the insanity of this US view, as well as the other US "freedom of religion" (which they interpret as freedom BY THE RELIGION), the rest of the world, and esp. CommonWealth countries [Oz, UK, Canada, etc.], are not bound by such nonsense.)
The ONLY way that WT has managed to even make it to 2015 is because of income and property tax exemptions (as well as tax deductions for for member donations) (and, in Canada, GST credit refunds [a sick, largely unknown teat-suck, told to the congos by the Branch] ). (Rutherford saw the writing on the wall when he decided that "TRUE" religion was not a snare and a racket.)
CRA charity eligibility states ( http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/chrts-gvng/chrts/pplyng/ftwp-eng.html ):
Activities that are illegal or contrary to Canadian public policy
Organizations that undertake illegal activities (e.g., fraud, or money laundering) will not qualify for registration.
Organizations with activities contrary to Canadian public policy will not qualify for registration. A public policy is a definite and officially declared and implemented policy (i.e., found in an act of Parliament, or a regulation).
Elucidate your position, which I see as, that WT is not violating Canadian public policy by instructing its members to selectively spiritually abuse certain individuals, as so deemed exclusively by WT or its reps.
i have been given a piece of birthday cake as it was his birthday yesterday!
will i be a human hot dog now?.....
this just got me thinking of all the stupidities of the watchtower teachings, someone very kindly offers you something as innocent as a slice of chocolate cake but we were supposed to turn it down because that peace of chocolate cake now had horns poking out the top of the chocolate frosting.
Such BS.
Through work, I saw today a 6-year-old girl, and her 5-year-old brother who were so excited, because they were going to a friend's birthday party today.
Pure, unadulterated joy and expectation in their little faces.
Priceless.
