Congregations do all the grunt work and pay the bills BUT Watchtower owns the asset! Great gig if you're Watchtower. The gullible fools keep lapping it up.

I was bullied in the congregation as a teenager. It was tough. I lost a lot people who I thought were my "friends." The experience was miserable but it did teach me to be a stronger person, not to trust so easily and that no one will always stick up for you. I have learned to fight my own battles. It's a bittersweet experience. I survived and am a stronger person because of it.

Sunday's W.T angered me + I found an ironic scripture
by Isambard Crater induring the "do you love me more than these" watchtower study on sunday, i got so angry on many occasions, hearing people make comments like "if you enjoy your job, you're an enemy of jehovah" and "the only reason we're here is to preach.
work and relaxation only exist to help us to preach".. the paragraph talking about the "do more!
" attitude in the world getting people down really got me down just reading it, as it applies so much to the borg.. i also found the ecclesiastes scripture quoted to be ironic, as the rest of the article tells is that nothing is better or more of a priority than to preach;.

"Working is a sin in the JW religion."
My spouse and I are noticing that our still in relatives are all looking for others to "foot their bills." Instead of working more or getting extra jobs, they are looking for hand outs to survive. Is this a pattern or is it just our family?
I was always taught, if you work, you eat.

PE...just watched you clip above of Erin. She is absolutely precious. When you want hit someone for the way she and your ex were treated, play that video. She adores you!
The JW's are a sick bunch. I hope your ex can soon make her exit as well. I'm sorry they had that happen, it hurts so much. This is how this cult rolls and I think karma is biting them.
Enjoy that sweet sweet baby!!! ❤️

Yeah WT is great at demonizing education BUT they sure love to "use" the brothers and sisters education to their benefit...i.e. Nurses, doctors,lawyers, dentists, engineers, plumbers and anyone who specializes in anything that can be of benefit. It sickens me and is at the height of hypocrisy.

info on why JWs can't go into other churches
by banco6 ini would like to know why jws can't enter another church,for funerals or anything?
-

I must have been such a mediocre JW, I had zero problem entering a church for a wedding or funeral. They sold our Kingdom Hall to a church. I figured if they could do that, then I had no problem walking in one. You talk about hypocrisy. WT sells our hall to a church but I can't enter one to support a loved one? Really? It's amazing how it only flows one way....WATCHTOWERS WAY!!!!

honesty
by midnight inregarding the recent 1975 video at the convention it hit me !.
when reasoning with people about the inspiration of the bible we used the bible writers candor ie/ there honesty when recording bible accounts about there personal mistakes .. how come the governing body despite its claims to be spirit directed are not honest about there mistakes ?.

Governing Body : the true definition of narcissists. A narcissist will NEVER admit they are wrong. They would die before they ever admitted a mistake on their part.

"Satan is influenceing so many!" Lol
Before we made our exit, a Sister (Elders wife) told me a couple of JW acquaintances had belly button rings. I told her that the org doesn't support that. She looked at me like I just landed from Mars. I truly believe these people don't know what WT promotes. I think during meetings and assemblies they are thinking about who is going and where they are going for dinner and their next vacation. Like I said before, this is an al a carte cult. Pick and choose what you want to follow.
