  just skimming the latest study wt that has been posted and what did i see...?.

  i wonder what the message is that they want the flock to take from this picture?.

  there is also an article about training younger men to take over responsibilities.

  "That's it boys, keep it up... until the hemorrhage of young people reaches 100 percent, and the organization sinks into total irrelevance.."

  I couldn't agree more. WT is hanging themselves with their very own words.

  i always found it interesting how there are doctors at bethel and jw lawyers, when the org frowns on pursuing higher education.

  i guess it's ok if it's for their benefit?.

  I have asked that exact question. This is what I was told. "As long as it was for Kingdom interests, it is ok." Really? You just can't make this sh*t up!

  "I wonder if things are calm because they are tired?"

  Good point Millie. Are they receiving more "kick back" than they anticipated? Reading this forum and also Reddit, it seems there is more questioning and doubters than they may have expected. I hope they are nervous...very nervous (but than again...they are very arrogant).

  What's The First "Worldly" Thing You Did When You Exited The Cult?

  by pale.emperor in

  when you finally and officially exited the cult, whether it be by disfellowshipping, disassociating or fading - what was the first things you did that are considered "worldly"?.

  for me, it was like crash landing on another planet that looked like earth but was completely different to the earth i knew.

  i wanted to learn everything that i thought i already knew.. first things i did:.

  Not too much here. We are pretty boring. We just continued on with our life. We enjoy life and each other. We enjoyed life prior to our exit but unloading the cult was VERY good for our emotional well being. Getting the "toxins" out of your life is a great feeling.

  We have allowed our children the freedom to be "normal." Hanging out with their friends (great kids), going to supervised parties and pursuing goals and learning. Just the ordinary things, ordinary people do.

  Campaign to invite people to meetings

  by StarTrekAngel in

  just found out last night that our congo is starting a campaign to invite interested people to meetings.

  the instructions for the campaign clear out that "interested" people are not just those whom we visit often or have bible studies with.

  it includes and random stranger we may talk to and who may show a hint of interest on the religion.

  The Kingdom Halls must be emptying out. Wait til these "interested ones" Google Jehovah's witnesses. Boy, will they get a boat load of info. Not good info either.

  Counting time

  2. scandals

  i may not have put this in the correct spot, but i do think it's scandalous the way time gets counted now.

  i've seen a cart at the edge of our farmer's market, never anyone close enough to talk.

  yesterday was a drizzly day and there were two carts set up, covered in plastic, "witnessing" on their own.

  Yes...it is the MOST important message! It is a joke! If it was so important they would have TV, Radio ads and billboards. It just goes to show you how REALLY important it is.

  My parents would roll over in their graves if they could see their religion now.
