Jehovah's people are the happiest people on earth!

by Coded Logic in

so this afternoon my roommate and i decided to go grab some dinner from the local chipotle and, as we live only a short distance from the franchise, we decided it was a good idea to walk.

little did i know that the j-dubs district convention here in sacramento was just getting out (the auditorium is literally smack in the middle of downtown and its attendees have to park in garages scattered a couple blocks away in every direction) so men in cheap suits and women in unflattering dress' were walking all over the place as though someone had antagonized their ungodly ant hill.

and, for sacramento, this of course is the complete opposite of the normative - that is to say, our streets are usually filled with well dressed, immaculately groomed, 'i know exactly where i'm going' government officials that monopolize the state capitol m-f. .

Gee...where do I sign up to join these "happy people." No wonder everyone is on depression meds. At 2:14, he states people are missing meetings and field serve us. That is the standard line with the JW's, "do more, do more, do more. If you attend your meetings and go in the ministry, you will fell better." Funny thing...we NEVER felt better. We always felt better when we got home from the meetings/assemblies (boring). We hated field serve us. Just a carload of braggers and whiners. We DON'T miss it AT ALL!

I agree with JW GoneBad.

These families that you describe REALLY want to be with one another. No judgement, just spending good, quality time together. This cult deguised as a religion ruins families.

Sister attendants not able to give directions to a brother..Misogyny

by Theburstbubble in

at our recent rc i was advised by a sister who was an attendant that they have been advised not to be able to give brothers directions as this should be dealt with by the brothers.

apparently at the pre-convention attendants meeting, the sisters were asked to stay behind.

this was when they were given the news that the brothers should deal with brothers.

I was counselled after on of my talks, that I can not teach from the platform. WTF? My question is, how come you can not teach from the platform by can go out in field serve us and teach? Crazy!

Remember the one that said something along the lines of, "like bees that were molested?" What? Creepy!

Just wait until there are NO brothers left. It's great to see they are using Sisters. This means they don't have enough brothers. The smart ones are leaving.

This is just the same ole JW thinking...JW women = second class citizens.

It's hard to believe we were one of those "happy people" just a few short years ago. NOT!!!

Go on welfare!

i ran into a older jw women who i have known my whole life.

Oh yes...there are more JW's taking from the Government. We have family members doing this as we speak. We have watched many a JW take from the government (all in the name of Jehovah) and also mooch off of any available person they can (a free place to stay, a free meal or two or three or four,etc, or a green hand shake) . These desperate JW's are great "suck ups."
