  WT books- will ship

  by lrkr in

  2. bible

  so i'm cleaning out the attic and i have boxes of wt books.

  all of the 90's new systemy books, the 60s and 70s prophecy books, some of the 40s and 50s rainbow books, and bound volumes from about 1975-1995.. i am happy to ship them to anyone that wants them.

  2 caveats- you pay shipping, and i'm not digging through them to find anything.

  I agree with sir82. You can really bring some bank home for older WT publications. The drool coming off these zealous eBayers is funny to see. You would think you were selling gold nuggets. In actuality it's feces covered in a layer of false spiritual food. So sell all the s**t you want!

  If there were valuable experiences and extensive research on specific subjects, the owners should have seriously considered transferring ownership or selling outright. The fact that they refused to even consider this option for the sakes of the thousands upon thousands if not the millions of ex members just goes to show their incredible selfishness and downright stupidity. Having designed, owned, maintained, and sold my own niche websites, I'm fully qualified to call them out. No excuses just plain and utter stupidity and lack of compassion for others.

  Trump could be the new 1914

  if wwi did not happen in 1914 the jw religion may not have survived.

  many back then were already disillusioned with the fact that they were not taking to heaven.

  some left.

  I think any major U.S. event affecting the world would be used by those maggots in Brooklyn to further their spiritual enslavement agenda.

  So are the GB now saying that they are NOT the "faithful and discreet slave"?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so can someone clarify this please?.

  the claim has been made that the gb is the faithful and discreet slave.

  especially was this highlighted during the agm (when the silver bible was released).. but are they now saying that this "appointment" isn't happening until the "great tribulation"?.

  Yeah, these maggots slipped it in into the new purple kingdom book introduced at a assembly some years ago. And of course the indoctrinated JW goes home eats all that delicious spiritual food until it's time to digest it. Then he comes to the bitter part where it says his masters have not yet been appointed. What! So what does the JW do with bitter food that has been given. He curiously asks an elder about it. And the response from the imbecil also in the dark elder? He pulls out the almighty, all powerful, and thought stopping one liner: "let's wait on jehovah".

  And so it continues, the never ending stupidity of your average, uneducated, irrational thinking JW window/office/home cleaner.

  In all honesty, the majority of JWs are not to blame. They are merely pawns being used by the real culprits in NY.

  If Jehovah hates magic, why is it ok to go to Magic theme parks such as Disneyland the Magic Kingdom and not be disfellowshipped for it?

  if jehovah hates magic, why is it ok to go to magic theme parks such as disney land the magic kingdom?

  i grew up a jw and we all went to disney land and magic mountain.

  if jehovah hates magic then why are these places not forbidden?

  It's the same with using the Gregorian calendar, names of the week, wedding rings, bonfires, etc.

  Just a wink and a nod I guess. Probably same stupid reason why Brits can sport a beard but we can't. Go figure.

  "Just don't overthink the truth"

  by stuckinarut2 in

  so after almost a year of complete inactivity and non attendance, i ran into a nice brother from the local congregation.. after some nice chit-chat, he says "we really miss you and your family...etc...you were always the kind and supportive one, the approachable and encouraging one in the congregation.

  your absence has confused so many".

  i thanked him and said "oh no, no individual has stumbled us.

  Jesus did say that "the truth" would set us free.

  I think he meant the TTATT not the witness truth.

  Yeah, it's actually a sight to see and witness when you run into friends and smack them with the truth and they'll just look at you dumbfounded and upset that they now know the truth. Hahaha

  Can anyone allay my suspicions?

  by Nicholaus Kopernicus in

  2. experiences

  can you allay my suspicions of wt associated activity?.

  during the last 3 to 4 co visits, i noticed a predeliction on the part of the ladt few co's for taking photos at fs meetings and photos of cong at end of visit.

  i'm beginning to suspect that such is not because the co's have a newly found socially engaging disposition (being cool).

  I was still very much in when we we're asked to pose for a family pic by the CO wife including our names. And at the next meeting we got the pic back with a text below stipulating who it came from, etc. I thought back then (4-5 years ago) that it was nice yet very strange. Something just didn't feel right. I guess intuition.

  The Ray Franz Saga

  by snugglebunny in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm just curious as to how it all happened.. to explain.

  many years back, before ex-jw websites, i called on a local lady in order to design an extension to her already enormous house.

  she was a young, voluptuous gal, married to a much older local business man who spared little expense in order to give his young wife whatever her heart desired.. we chatted for ages.

  It wasn't until the early 90s that I learned of Ray.

  The gossip was he was trying to get only the rank and file or regular non-titled members to do the house to house preaching. Also that he was trying to subvert and take over the organization a sort of hostile takeover. At the time, I thought "wow! this is crazy. this guy is satan incarnate!". What a tangled web we weave.

  Like the rest of you, it wasn't until I read CoC that everything came into focus. More so now with the testimonies from people like the Kuilan's, Ed Dunlap, and Peter Gregerson just to name a few.

  Ray was a gentle soul who got railroaded by those power hungry maggots.

  When I first heard about this incident I thought the GB were men in white clothing floating in mid-air reciting prayers and Jehovah's bright light shinning over them as they mentally received spiritual insight. Hahahahahaha
