JW reasoning is faulty. I believe orthodox rabbis are correct. Blood represents life. Life is sacred. Watchtower is blood guilty.

PIMA is best so it’s not a shock to the system if the tower collapsed
by JohnR1975 ini know most people here are totally out and that’s fine.. many these days are staying physically in for the social life and that is also fine.. i feel being fully mentally in is dangerous as it could be such a shock mentally if or should i say when the tower collapsed.. im sitting in the fence like so many others here.
mentally agnostic if god exists or not and if the bible is his word.. when i talk to people who are physically and mentally still in i can tell that they so need it to be true.
i’m worried for them when they wake up to the fact that they have been lied to 1914 wasn’t true 1975 wasn’t true 1999 wasn’t true and now here we are 2025 it’s all not true.

Depends on your character and convictions. Some folks don't mind living a double life or belonging to criminal groups or selling harmful substances. Dealing drugs, joining the mafia, big tobacco, and Watchtower all have many members.

Relatively few people at Bethel have day-to-day contact with governing body members, and even fewer converse with them daily. Those that do, can keep secrets well.
I traveled 3xs a week to meetings and service with Knorr's personal secretary for a year,(district overseer) and he never ONCE talked about his job or Knorr. I got more info from a Bethel nurse friend about the condition of GB members. Don't rely on random Bethelites for any accurate information.
My wife and I both had JW alcoholic parents. It is a real issue in the Borg. It makes a person unpredictable and difficult.

Depression and big pharma drugs
by Anonymous666 ini'm going to drop a bomb shell here for all you who think you know something about depression.
most depression cases are being cause by the food and drug administration.
they are putting things in certain foods that they know will affect certain people especially those who have gluten problems.

Tony was an ass on the platform. No doubt an even bigger one in person.
Can you imagine trying to effect any change with a guy like him in an elder body? Old "roast the heretics like a hotdog" and pass me another drink, had to go.
Getting kicked off the GB and out of Bethel broke the proud stiff-necked ass. He is probably drowning himself in scotch at home streaming old movies in his recliner. Probably has groceries and booze delivered. He has contacts in the area from when he was a CO for basic needs.

"fear and with much trembling"
by Truth and Justice ini remember a long time ago, about 40 years ago, when my father said to me "things changed when the elder arrangement came in to focus.
" his view was that the elder arrangement was providing such a power and that sometimes it was abused.
my father was not opposed to the fact of their being elders, because the scriptures talk about the use of elders/shepherds helping the flock so to speak.

Jesus said, "By their fruits, you shall know them". Half the elders I have known or served with have displayed rotten fruit.
Many had never even read the entire Bible once. Many never bothered to read their "flock" book. Humility and kindness were rare even on the governing body—food for thought.

I wonder if any of the "homeless" by Watchtower loading docks were ex-pioneers who had followed Watchtower financial advice for years? lol

Sounds like a re-hash of the pre-1975 Watchtower shite I gulped down as a gullible JW teenager. I quit my job to Pioneer and then sold all my belongings and my cars and dumped my girlfriend to volunteer for $17 a month at Bethel. What a maroon.
The same shite fed to generations of cultists, Mormons, and Adventists. " the world is dangerous" and "out to get us". #1 Cut off all outsiders, and #2. act weird thereby inviting "persecution" and forcing members to #3 sell everything and move, and #4 give assets and all energy/labor to cult/religion.

When God Hates something or certain things are we expected not to do it 100%?
by Longlivetherenegades inwhen god hates certain things does that mean you are not expected to do that particular thing or certain things 100% .
1. god hates divorce does that mean we are not expected to divorce at all?
(hint: jesus allow divorce) .

God hates divorce.....but t t t....most of his favored "friends" had multiple wives and concubines. Go figure.
Even later, you only needed to have one wife if you wanted to be a "servant" or elder.
