as one of jehovah's witnesses for over 40 years, i was always taught that we were the only ones who went door to door, preached world wide, built our own buildings and so on.. however in the past year living in the south, not 1 jw has knocked on my door.
yet 4 various people from local churches have.. tonight i meet a young man who is preaching with a group in china (baptist) a block away i watched a congregation build their own church.. i could go on all night with the thing i have found to be un true with the org.. glad i'm out.
i showed my wife in 2 cor 4:5
5 For we are preaching, not ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as YOUR slaves for Jesus’ sake
So i told her, when you preach door to door, you should be preaching about christ. not handing out magazines, would jesus hand out magazines?
take a look at this caleb & sophia rc badge for children.. .
what's the motivation to make special childrens' badges?
i smell indoctrination!.
LOL, what a shame, brainwashing the youth.
So we went to the Assembly without badges....my wife asked me. where are our badges? didn't you get some? i said no! didn't you? so i asked, when did this become my responsibility?
end of conversation and we didn't end up having any badges, which was great.
i hate this cult!!!!!!!!!
warning, novel ahead:.
after a few months of lurking on this site, i've decided to take the plunge...i don't really care so much about introducing myself, but somehow there is some relief in the thought of getting my little story out there, just getting it out of my system.
i am the oldest of 5 kids.
Time heals all wounds......give your mind a rest and just live. you could come back later and straighten it out when you in a better state of mind.
Don't worry, Armagedon is not coming and neither is the the great tribulation. it's all a rouse.
give your mind a rest young one and live like there is no tomorrow.
pm me if you would like someone to talk with.
so, i left about 5 years ago and at that time, the official ruling on number of members was a little over 6 million.
i google jw out of boredom the other day and find they are now claiming 8 million members.
sooooo.... hold on 2 million increase in 5 years?
So i heard from someone at the assembly that the GB baffoons are saying the 67000 witness die a year. and that 5300 get baptized every weekend or around 275,600 a year. when you consider the amount of followers that get DF'd a year or become inactive.
without even calculating the growth, i just don't see how they could actually say they have over 8 million JWombie followers.
and what about us that are awake and have to go to the shite because a loved one is still binded.
i don't see the seats being filled at the asseblies nor the halls.
Remember, it's a cult!! i wish it would just go away
my spies tell me that they are getting shown videos very regularly at the 2 day convention(tm).. i figured it may be because the wbt$ wants mass indoctrination using their tried and tested propaganda techniques.. the average elder won't be aware that the wbt$ uses these thought reform techniques so will be incapable of using them himself.
also, the elder might not put the money grabbing, 1984 ministry of truth spin on things and actually say something good instead.
we know the wbt$ don't like 'good'!
the video suck....both my son's think they suck...once the video come on, they shut off....while my wife is drinking it up like it is the fountain of life.
here is a change of pace, what was the nicest thing a jw has ever done for you or you have seen done?
it wasn't all bad all the time!
RUIN MY LIFE, RUIN MY MARRIAGE, AND BRING OUT THE CULT IN MY WIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANKS DUBS ANYTHING ELSE YOU ALL COULD DO!!!!!!!
so at the assembly to day that nitwit lett gave a talk....i noticed right away he had a pinky ring.
i asked my wife what was the purpose of the pinky ring?
and then asked....would jesus wear a pinky?
from what i understand...tomorrow they talk about internet....i might bring up the fact that that topic fall under the information control of the B.I.T.E model..
she knows what the B.I.T.E model is because i have told her before.
she is so freaking blind....if they jumped off a cliff. she would follow.
it reminds me of the flight of icarus.
