From my information it's going to start at Bethel in Australia with the branch committee huddling in a basement with their lawyers while the authorities search for them.

Hidden message in JW bunker video?
by Dunedain inso, i was speaking with a relative recently, who is "in" the borg, but is completely aware of the terrible hypocrisy from the gb down.
he is not in the box, and its great to be able to have a realistic, and logical discussion about the current state of the org.. we started discussing, specifically, about that bunker video that was released in december.
how it is being played at all the conventions.

Are we in a computer simulation?
by Brokeback Watchtower inhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znmk2viuqba.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/simulation_hypothesis.
consequences of living in a simulation[edit]some scholars speculate that the creators of our hypothetical simulation may have limited computing power; if so, after a certain point, the creators would have to deploy some sort of strategy to prevent simulations from themselves indefinitely creating high-fidelity simulations in unbounded regress.

This is a very interesting subject that intertwines with consciousness, quantum mechanics, and that we may exist in a sort of dream-like state where what we conceive in our mind materializes in physical form.
I've been researching this subject for a couple of years and it's a deep subject and potentially disturbing for some who can't handle the fact that we may all be nothing but computer code.

I remember seeing this video some years back. I felt bad for these guys who really thought the GB would humbly receive them and listen to their concerns.
I'm glad that they experienced what the GB really is first-hand and hopefully they and their families have left this cult organization.

In all probability it was meant as an explicit warning to remain loyal to Jehovah (THEM) because the end is imminent and more than ever they will need to depend on Jehovah (THEM). I think the whole convention is meant to really cement and condition the mind of the friends that loyalty to Jehovah (THEM) is a matter of life and death. This convention is a prelude to a major change in one of their teachings perhaps the 1914 date. It just reeks of emotional and spiritual blackmail.
The GB knows their time is up and they are now grasping at straws and playing the only viable card they have and that's the mind hold over members.
How sweet it is to know these GB maggots are sweating bullets trying to figure out how to keep their power over the friends. Hahahahaha!!!

Keep the meeting going! (even if somebody's dying)

This is an approach that places the responsibility of the violent person's actions on the victim. This is not an approach that works. It does NOT work to be compliant.This is a myth that is prevalent in society that needs to be corrected and encouraging this behavior is what keeps the cycles of violence active
I agree that by cooperating or continuing to subject yourself to abuse only enables further abuse. Yes, it promotes a vicious cycle. I guess what I meant is for the sister to remain until she is able to free herself from this abusive environment/spouse.
I apologize for coming off strong at your response. I just don't condone any sort of violence toward women or anyone in general. -

@ OrphanCrow - I was not advocating the domestic abuse of women. Perhaps I should have been clearer for members like you who may need it spelled out.
The brothers should have told the sister not to attend the meetings or do anything that would make her husband fly off the handle. Advising her to call the police and seek safety away from an abusive husband is completely obvious and goes unsaid.
I would appreciate that you don't jump to conclusions OC and try reading between the lines before making your stupid assumptions.

@startingover - The guy was caught a few streets down still carrying the knife and still pissed. I later on heard he got 25 to life. He may already be out or probably dead but I believe I heard mom say he would beat the sister and tried to keep her from attending. You would think the idiot brothers would tell her to cooperate with him but instead probably pushed her to fight him in order to attend. Boy oh boy.

The more I learn about how the average JW is mind conditioned the sorrier I feel for these people who actually believe they are doing right.
