Wouldn’t it be funny if someone actually hacked the JW.org Web site and somehow replaced the real Caleb and Sophia videos in the children’s section with those three episodes of “Jehovah Boy” by “roguepixel100” on YouTube? Now that would be funny! I wonder how long it would be until one of the over-starched white shirt and tie wearing dubs at the headquarters would discover that something was wrong?

Brett Arends, MarketWatch article on Yahoo! Finance: “This latest economic earthquake follows the development last year when China surpassed the U.S. for the first time in terms of global trade. . . . Make no mistake: This is a geopolitical earthquake with a high reading on the Richter scale.”
Maybe the GB will spin this with another of their references to the symbolic “earthquakes” in the book of Revelation relating to political upheaval, like they have already done in their Revelation Climax book. Maybe they need yet another version of that Revelation Climax book to be up-to-date with no doubt more of their conniving interpretations and speculations in this 21st century.

the Wt Study last Weekend
by thedog1 ini wasn't at the study at the weekend, the reason was family health problems, but even if that had not been the case i wouldn't have been there.
has anybody else who was there or read the article noticed the unbelievable begging bowl being produced for the pioneers and cos and bethelites, etc?
maybe this has been commented on already but in effect witnesses are being asked to financially support, not only pioneers, but circuit overseers if they need medical help, and to fill in with dealing with aged parents if missionaries are abroad.

“Oubliette”: “‘Those who enter the full-time ministry do so, not to gain financially, but to give – to Jehovah and to others.’ – w2014, 9/15, p. 32, para. 21” “So why don't the GB members "give" the money they control to others?”
That’s because the GB consider themselves to be the “others” (i.e., they want people to give to Jehovah and to themselves). And since in reality the GB and Jehovah are one and the same (yes, folks, it’s really, in effect, a psychological thriller with a twist), all the money just goes to the empire of the oh so great and wonderful GB. (Sarcasm indeed.)

CAN WE SOLVE THE MYSTERY of why Watchtower doctrines changed when they changed?
by Terry inif a person gives a police report of a traumatic event, but later changes their facts during cross-examination, these changes are used to impeach the honesty of the witness.. this impeachment flows from a logical understanding facts must match reality without contradiction.. lets examine the history of the watchtower corporations leaders with a view to the harmony of.
true teaching over a period of years from 1879-1942.. "even though christmas is not the real anniversary of our lord's birth, but more properly the annunciation day or the date of his human begetting (luke 1:28), nevertheless, since the celebration of our lord's birth is not a matter of divine appointment or injunction, but merely a tribute of respect to him, it is not necessary for us to quibble particularly about the date.
we may as well join with the civilized world in celebrating the grand event on the day which the majority celebrate - "christmas day.

It would seem that those later changes toward banning Christmas and birthdays, dogmatically insisting on a stake/pole as opposed to the standard cross (which was, in fact, used in Rome at the time), as well as the ban on transfusing whole blood or the four major components thereof, including autologous transfusion (can’t store your own blood to transfuse back into yourself because it would be “stored,” but blood tests are allowed) – all those and many other changes weren’t so much to do with any supposed scriptural validity but, rather, as a mechanism to foster a black-and-white, “us-verses-them” view pertaining to the “world” in general. And that, of course, is quite an instrumental means used by the WTS in securing control over its ignorant and bewildered membership.

JW's and Ambient Abuse
by Jehovanomics inambient abuse is the stealth, subtle, underground currents of maltreatment that sometimes go unnoticed even by the victims themselves, until it is too late.
ambient abuse penetrates and permeates everything but is difficult to pinpoint and identify.
it is ambiguous, atmospheric, diffuse.
-
SAHS
“Jehovanomics”: “Her membership in the abuser's "kingdom" is cast as a privilege and a prize.”
That sure sounds familiar! The WTS keeps always saying what an inestimable “privilege” it is to serve God them.

What Is The Ideal Discussion Board For You?
by minimus ini think these boards are great!
it gives us the opportunity to express our feelings, our viewpoints, our concerns, etc.
when we were jws we could not freely do any of that.

SAHS
“Terry,” you beat me to it! My sentiments exactly: “THIS ONE.” This is the one and only discussion board I got into about eleven years ago when I really began questioning the JW religion, and I found it most informative and eye-opening. I came across a link somewhere on this site to a detailed chronological synopsis of the ever-changing doctrines and policies of the WTS called “Spiritual Food At the Proper Time” on the “http://www.freeminds.org” site, which really did if for me. But it was this particular site – “http://www.jehovahs-witness.net” – which began my journey to discover TTATT. This site seems to be the best one out there for in-depth inside information, insightful analysis, and a massive support community.
“Simon”: “The limit is now about 4 billion [posts] so we should be good way into the new system and beyond.”
LOL!

“NAVYTOWN”: “ I say sacrifice HUMANS and leave the poor animals alone. ”
Actually, that is pricisely what the WTS has been doing ever since that disgusting and perverse blood transfusion policy they made up. All told, there were many thousands and thousands of men, women, and helpless CHILDREN who have ended up being sacrificed to that other mythological narcissist, Yahweh/Jehovah! They may not have been slaughtered by knives, but in the end, death is still death. As we’ve seen from the JWs, ignorance abounds, apparently even among the supposedly intelligent and civilized.

A picture of a WT dream
by Sour Grapes inpeople stay jehovah's witnesses for several reasons.
the foremost is because they are taught that they could cheat death and not have to die or even better yet not have to get old.
the second is they can see their dead relatives again , who have a direct pass to paradise, and that we must obey to get there to see them in the resurrection.

It’s certainly quite disgusting on so many different levels. Aside from the obvious and cruel suffering of the animals, and aside from the needlessness and senselessness of it all, what also really gets me is: What about all the people who are STARVING in so many third-world countries, including their own! They’re just letting all those innumerable tons of meat rot, which really doesn’t do anybody any good, and is just apt to cause bacterial infections and diseases.
Oh, sure, maybe some pelts may be salvaged and sold at a good profit, and some of the horns or testicles may be chopped up and sold as aphrodisiacs in an ignorant attempt to make sure the willies of the rich folk will keep performing, but I don’t see anything about donating any meat to some of the multitudinous number of poor starving folks, in their own country and others, such as Africa. Nope. I guess this bitch goddess Gadhimai, the “goddess of power,” couldn’t give a shit about that.
One might wonder why, since this Gadhimai broad is supposedly the “goddess of power,” she doesn’t use some of that “power” to actually accomplish something useful and help people, instead of just further raping the country’s natural resources. I wonder if any of those folks in Nepal ever have a little light bulb go off in their head which would make them say, “Hmmm,” and actually think about what the point of that little destructive exercise is. Maybe they need to start waking up – just like we did at one point in our journey from the WTS.
Although, all that prolific animal sacrificing does remind me about all the same sort of thing which was apparently commanded by the so-called Almighty and All-wise Creator of the universe – the God of the Jews in the ancient Mosaic Law. At least some of the meat from those sacrifices practiced by the ancient Israelites was actually to be eaten, but it nevertheless still strikes me as being a rather needless and senseless destruction of their natural resources – especially for those tribes wandering in a rocky desert all those years, when you would think that their survival would necessitate wise practicality. Perhaps those ancient Jews weren’t quite so different from the modern folks in Nepal. Same sort of religious customs – just at a different time and under a different brand.
In acknowledgement of and due credit to the original poster’s thread title, “I hate religion,” I must say in all earnestness and honesty: Me too!

“prologos”: “I see a < 400 squae feet cottage with two massive chimneys, wood, coal burning.”
Maybe that’s for making animal sacrifices – you know, just to make sure the old guy on the throne in the clouds is kept happy. Juuust in case.
