"Well now at least they get a ressurection!"

by stuckinarut2 in

yes, that is what a witness said after the police shootings and terrible aftermath of violence occurred this week in the usa..... they said that it now gives them a chance to live forever...as if they would not have had that opportunity if they had not been tragically killed..... of course according to witness teachings, the contradictory thing is that if the big a had come a day before, then those same people would have been killed by jehovah because they were not his worshipers.....

Remember the Bunker video: "Our message went from good news to judgement."

That is all JW's know how to do well....JUDGE OTHERS. WT is creating a rift, us against them. They have divided families for years but are seeing quite a few JW's not following "theocratic direction". This WILL and HAS reached the media and social media. The JW's are getting quite a reputation. They are doing a great job hanging themselves. If a JW is not in a position to exit (family ties), I truly believe that the majority of these ones have quit donating. How better to strike back...hit em where it hurts...THE WALLET!

I am sorry of the abuse you have had to deal with. How hurtful!

You ended it well. I would have added a few more choice words that I can not say on this forum.

Enjoy your freedom. I hate this cult!

Since My Mom's Death--not a JW in sight !

jw

i had one lovebombing when she died by the congregation and since then---- nada.

lol.

Sorry for your loss. Their sympathy does not last long, if at all. UNTIL....it happens to THEM. JW's never "get" anything until it happens to them.

What is the current suicide and mental illness rate among JWs and previous members

by 060702015 in

jw
friends

there seems to be no current data on this information and there is questions concerning the validation of past data.

apparently there is high rate of mental illness and suicide.

jehovahs witnesses suicide rate 5 to 10 times above average.

I think they are all in our family! Lol

Bethel Economy

revelation 6:6 kjv.

6 and i heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, a measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.. this prophecy starts to be true in south europe bethels..... according to our sources, bethel families have been asked to reduce their food allowance and even been informed that monthly contribution might not be paid.. meantime, one of these branches is sending millions of € every year as donation to other wt structures, not to mention the 7 digit number on their bank account.

bethel members are not blind ;).

The natives are getting restless. I think the next few years are going to be VERY interesting. We are hoping things will come back to bite WT in the a**.

We live a simple life

by hoser in

this is a video on jw broadcasting to quit your full time career, sell your house and belongings and start a window washing career.

i agree with some of what is presented but not all.

it is good to live within your means as presented in this video.

"Of course, if you break their rules and pursue any or all of these things, they will gladly accept a donation from you. If you are somehow still in good standing, or possibly even if you're not, they will accept any of your professional services as a voluntary contribution to their cause.
Why?....... Well, greed of course.... with a sprinkle of hypocrisy."
Great comment xjwsrock. This always bothered me. They condemn you if you pursue these things but they will take the money and time you can provide to THEM. Disgusting hypocrisy!

Contempt of court, case in San Diego county really disgusts me!

by Crazyguy in

this case has to be talked about by ever awake jw every apostate everyone.

this case because they refuse to hand over documents the court already knows they have because they handed them over before but heavily redacted, is the icing on the cake!

this case shows thier evil plain and simple.

LURKERS: WT is paying $4000 a day to keep their records secure. If you are still donating to WT, your money is being used to pay this fine. Think about it.
