Simon: would you be able to publish how many new people have joined in the 1.5 years?
by goingthruthemotions inthe reason i say this is because the last 1.5 years was around the summer of 2013 that i started see new light changes and changes with the rebranding.
so it would be interesting to know how many people have joined.
just image how many lurk out of fear of being caught.

if possible that would be encouraging info...(sorry to take a loaded word out of jwland)

Imagine the Congitive Dissonance the sheeple are experiencing. correct me if i am wrong...but didn't the washtowel tell sheeple not have decales on cars the show support for bands or athletes or not to wear shirts with logos because it was idol worship. could anyone find a wt or awake that state this?
I know the washtowel is against tattoos, but if some one got a tatoo of the blue org thing. would they then say it was ok to have a tattoo?
it's a cult

Thanks everyone for the comments...i do agree, that the faith without works is one of the manipulative things the dubs use to control the sheeple.
it's such a sad thing to see when you wake up and learn TTATT. very frustrating.

anyways...when we have gotten in fight she will come up with the words. "faith without works is dead" i know where the phrase comes from.
she uses this to pertain to going out in circus and going to meetings. " i would like my response to be...well shat about all the christians who help the poor and feed the hungry. arn't they doing fine works:
what scriptures could i use to back this up about chritians helping the poor and others less fortunate.

Did Guy Pierce Disapprove of All These Changes?
by thedepressedsoul ini have been wondering lately if guy pierce did not approve of all these changes like jw broadcasting, the new jw kingdom halls and the direction that they are currently moving in.
i know that some changes happened while he was alive but a lot of these changes seemed to be pushed right after his death..
for example, jw broadcasting almost sounds like it was rushed out within 2 months.
