Hi sparky 1,
Sometimes very difficult to differentiate them, considering that both their smiles reflect the same pharisee hypocrisy.

Mark Sanderson Talk re Belgium visit
by Listener inthe degradation of the governing body members continues on.
mark sanderson gives a talk regarding his visit to belgium for the memorial this year and was travelling from korea to munich to brussels, belgium on the day of the belgium terrorist attacks.he cannot wipe the smirk on his face as he relates his experience, with no regard whatsoever of all those unfortunately affected by the attacks.
in fact, he personally found god's hand affecting him personally, allowing him to attend the memorial as planned and a kh dedication.he is that privileged during his flight travels that internet was available to him, enabling him to catch up on current news and to contact branch's.

How do you deal with depression?
by BlackWolf ini'm currently going through a bout of depression and my eating disorder has gotten worse.
ever since my parents actually told me that they are going to kick me out when i turn 18 i've felt kind of hopeless about my life.
my parents won't take me to the doctor because the psychiatrists won't have my "best interests" aka jw crap in mind, because really that's the root of all my problems.. i'm wondering if any of you guys have any advice with dealing with depression?

Hi BlackWolf. You told :"Ever since my parents actually told me that they are going to kick me out when I turn 18". In other words your parents are blackmailing you. They are afraid for your future or for their reputation and think maybe that it is the best thing to do. Maybe the elders or other persons belonging to their congregation told them to try this kind of stratagem. Do not forget that you have to face people who are constantly educated "in the truth". Even if they are wrong, people who are "in the truth" are most of the time sure that they are doing the right thing at the right time. Difficult, if not impossible to contradict them, for the simple reason that they are not aware to be mentally manipulated. It will take time and some intelligent actions on your own initiative till you find the best strategy to deal with the strategy of your parents. You should find the right person to give you the best and most appropriated professional advice and practical help to overcome this difficult psychological situation.. I have officially dissociated myself from the WT cult,after decades of activity, regaining in this way both freedom and dignity. All the best and take care.

Cart "Witnessing"
by Funchback inbesides being a waste of time for those doing it, and being an easy way for the society to inflate its reports of time spent in the ministry, cart witnessing is also taking up space.
i live in a hot city in brazil.
today, the jws decided to set up their cart in the shady spot of the bus stop, where people going to work have to wait for the bus.. ugh!.

Closing! Total Liquidation.
by TheFadingAlbatros injw.org is delighted that soon various governments are going to strip "worldly" religions from their properties.
i hope that soon the time has come for the jw.org to be stripped out of its own properties.
100 % closing and total liquidation should be the share of every cult which is following the "shunning" policies.the caring parents who are now shunned by their own child(children) due to the fanatic and manipulated pressure of the now so called "princes" and "dukes" (wt elders) will 100 % agree.

"Life is so hard!...tribulation and problems abound!" Persecution complex of witnesses.....
by stuckinarut2 inthe meeting this week is mind-blowing in the way it fuels the crippling "persecution complex" of witnesses!.
paragraph 1 set the theme with this gem:.
does it shock you that you can expect to face many tribulations before you gain the prize of everlasting life?

What does the JW organisation do for the world?
by Half banana init gives nothing, it only takes.
it preaches the end but continues to commute its financial ‘winnings’ into bricks and mortar investments and enjoys the prestige of a world-wide portfolio worth billions.
the constant postponement of armageddon only helps this business model so the administration is happy.

Who elects Governing Body members?
by Lostandfound inwho elects the new gb members as needed, who is in charge, what happens when no anointed to fill vacancies?
change so everyone partakes?
in time gb members likely to be teenagers, i was baptised over 50 years ago, seemed to be faith based reasons for membership, what happened to paradie earth, jesus, and not just money, what is there in it to make you want to join, not appalling videos, appalling gb members pleading for money.

That should be a secret hand, skillfully hidden to the common people of which I luckily am a member.

It's now okay to applaud when someone is reinstated?
by eyeuse2badub inanyone else notice that in the video where the sister was reinstated after many years of freedom, that the congregation applauded at the announcement of her reinstatement?
it been a few years since i was an elder, but when i was, we were instructed by the co that it was "not appropriate" to applaud when the announcement of a reinstatement is made from the platform.
his words, "because the one being reinstated is only doing what they should be doing!".
