i was in a close relatives house yesterday and she was having angry and resentful at the push to use electronic devices at the meetings.
she was talking to another relative of mine who has just got an ipad to use.
this relative of mine is very elderly and obviously prefers to use her bible and other books.
They could care less about the older ones. The only thing they care about is loyalty and the almighty dollar. They need donations and old peoples estates being willed to WT. The old people will just have to "deal with it. " Sad but true!
We have a senior member who is going to have a fit when she sees there will be no more calendars printed.
this sweet older sister needed help and while trying to download the clm on her tablet, the history showed some porn pictures.
how does someone overlook that and carry on?.
hi guys,.
i stumbled upon this video while snooping around on jw.org.. lol isn't this ironic.. a video about gossip.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfqvywf-1is.
thoughts?
"I see more and more people where I am that are bending the rules of shunning."
Yes, just like so many that are bending the rules on sending their kids to college.
The cracks in the org are showing and I believe so many people are loosing their faith/confidence in this crazy cult. They may still attend, it does not mean they agree.
2016 is going to be a interesting year!
Thank you Wifi for posting this.
This is by far one of the sickest videos they have produced. The dirty looks while her DF'ing was announced and the public humiliation really shows the disgusting behavior of this sick cult.
Then the scene of her calling her parents and them not picking up. This is YOUR child you assh*les. UNBELIEVABLE!
I would NEVER, NEVER, NEVER be able to treat my children this way. Never!
I am disgusted and glad our family is OUT!
The bullying and blackmail is sad! Did I mention disgusting?
it's rare that i bump into someone from the old hall.
but it happened yesterday with one of the nicest brothers i remember.. he came into my place of work not knowing i worked there.
my company is now on his delivery route.
the gibbering buddies are guided by jeehipity-hop!
how can i say this with 100% confidence?
well, an emotionally unstable eldub was talking about "mobile devices.
Remember the main goal here....$$$$$. It's easier to hit the donate button or set up an auto withdrawal on your IPad or mobile device. They couldn't give a rats a** about the older ones. They want their donations and estates set up to go to WT. They are strategically setting this up for the future. They will eventually become a video feed (TV evangelists). There will be NO need for Kingdumb Halls. No Kingdumb halls equals no donation boxes. Follow the Money!
for years the society has said that over 40,000 a year are disfellowshipped.
add to that the 10's of thousands who simply disassociate or fade.... so by that logic, would it be correct to assume there are actually more former witnesses on the earth than the number of current active witnesses ?

Remember the come back to Jah brochure. If you leave it's YOUR fault. They never have and never will look at what they do to contribute to people hitting the Exit. Narcissists NEVER look at themselves as the problem.
Until they change their abusive behaviors, the pattern will continue. In my opinion, that is a good thing. The down side is all the damage they are doing to people and families. It's heartbreaking.
(i am still a serving elder.
i have no idea how much longer i can stomach it.
timing is terrible for stepping down right now, though.
