This is happifying. What this shows us is, WT is hearing a lot about failed phophecy. Yes, they did push the 1975 thing. Our family was there at the time and will back it up. Not only did they blame others, they made sure they used the resurrection weapon. This is what keeps so many going back. Waiting on Grandma, Grandpa, mom, dad, kids and friends to return. It is a powerful weapon that works on most who have endured loosing a loved one.It is the only tool I think WT has left. These are desperate times for WT and it shows. Look at their theme for the 2017 RC...Don't Give Up? Really?

1622017 Convention Video To Be Shown Regarding The 1975 Failure
by pale.emperor inhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=go3arnnsfkk&feature=youtu.be.
no mention whatsoever that it was watchtower themselves that strongly hinted towards this date.
instead they blame those who "put their trust in a date, not jehovah".. let's recap... .

I think it is easier to get into the FBI then becoming a pioneer. Rules, Rules and more rules. Only the "exemplary" may apply (or at least look exemplary). Spiritual by day a prescription drug abuser by night. lol

He must be exemplary (God...I hate that word).
Non "exemplary" brothers (the ones who get less than 10 hours in and can't seem to tow the WT line) can clean the toilets, clean the KH, come to the spring clean up, take the speaker out to lunch and donate for "kingdumb interests." Even though we have been taught that every task within the org is an equal "priviledge." Brothers who can't cut the mustard will have to sit out on "holy privileges."
I have always told my spouse that if the put a dirty toilet on the stage, during the assembly, all the Brothers would be rushing to the stage to clean it. It's all about "being seen." "Ok, looser Brothers, you can do the dirty tasks but we can't USE YOU for the important tasks."
WHAT A CLUSTER! There are 4 people in this family that can not be "USED" anymore! We voted with our feet and our wallet! Happier than ever!

Don't forget David. He was "Jah's friend." He was a murderer & stole another mans wife. Lot's wife turned and looked at her stuff. So let me get this straight...Jah spared murderous/wife stealing David but Lots wife turned around and BAM...DEAD. Makes sense. lol

"We had big plans for the future and wanted to leave the past where it was."
Our thoughts exactly. Thank you for your comments above. I believe it was one of the most up building and well thought out posts.
My spouse and I are on the same page you are. Move forward, enjoy life (it truly is short and fragile).
Thank you again!

JW's And Yoga
by pale.emperor inthis was partly discussed in this thread: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/4853755331739648/these-common-jw-beliefs?page=2#!#5701815683252224 but i wanted to delve into the topic of yoga even further.. it seems watchtower have no clue what yoga actually is, or what it can achieve.
i myself dont practice yoga, but i do meditate and see the benefits of that.. here is an artical from watchtower 2002 with my commentary:.

"As far as books for children, they have pretty much given up recruiting adults so they need to stay current with new exciting stuff....or at least new."
Yes...the adults are not falling for it anymore so they have to go after the born ins. It's the only hope WT has (until those little ones figure out it's BS...most likely when they turn teen). People are leaving and dying, it's there only option. Door to door and cart witnessing are not working. Too many people are Googling Jay dub ya dot org and finding out the truth. IT'S A CULT!!!

Why Don’t Jehovah’s Witnesses Respond to All Accusations Made Against Them? FROM WEBSITE

WT picks and chooses what it addresses. If they don't want to address it, they will sweep it under the rug and call it apostate lies. The interesting thing is, most of the followers believe WT. It is easier for the rank and file. Someone to tell you how to act and think.

Want to read a surprising comment/complaint posted on my website about JW's encouraged not to have kids. Who would have thought!
by AndersonsInfo inhttp://watchtowerdocuments.org/did-you-know-having-children/#comment-474.
here's the short article found in the "did you know?
" series found on watchtower documents, and, underneath it, is the unusual comment:.

"The Watchtower cannot stand it when they see people enjoying a normal life like getting married, having children, traveling, hobbies and the most evil.....having a college education."
You got it! When WT see's anything or anyone receiving the attention they feel they should be getting, they tighten the screws. Well...I don't think everyone is listening anymore. This is why the Loyalty assembly and the Don't give up assembly have been designed. WT is loosing it's grip! It's a good thing. It's always fun to watch the enemy sweat.
