  Mobile Hotspot - JWFACTS.COM - Assembly & Conventions

  by thedepressedsoul in

  here is an idea i tested.

  works at both assemblies and conventions.

  i have noticed at the last convention and at my last assembly that when i opened up my wifi setting, tons of hotspots came up for people tethering their tablets to their smart phones.

  Provide an "approved" Wi Fi infrastructure at assemblies

  I surely hope there is no expectation like this from an organization about to kick life long bethelites they promised satisfying and spiritually rewarding careers in service to jehovah.

  Some of those people are about to get the rudest awakenings they've ever seen.

  My wife was already talking to me about how some ex CO and DO are walking away from the organization in disgust after giving them the most productive years of their lives only to be kicked to the curb at a time when they are most in need. Of course she was telling me this under the admonition that theyhave not too long to wait until armageddon.

  "Go home, be warm and well fed!!!!"

  Indeed....

  You need to marry a ministerial Servant!

  a single sister in her 40s and her two single daughters were visiting my mom.

  i would say her daughters are in their early 20s.

  my mom got sleepy and we put her to bed but the three sisters stayed to finish their drinks..

  Me and the wife almost got in a heated argument about this while I was sitting with her during the last regional where they pitched only marrying a male with privileges in the hall. ...and if he didn't have privileges, ask yourself why. It was pitched as part of a letter from the governing body.

  She really didn't like my caricature of it as the governing body pimping out the sisters.

  If you are out, you spouse in spiritual danger and she must ignore your advice because it goes against the holy teachings.

  That is a mighty fine line she'll have to walk, especially if he's the family breadwinner.

  If her new spiritual leaders expect to exercise that much authority over her and she acquiese's to their authority unquestioningly, then I believe that they not only should be willing to take on her expenses as well, but, in fact, she should expect them to.

  Though, we know, that there is a better chance of her being able to breath air in space than that happening.

  In a veiled sense, intimated this hierarchical principle to my wife years ago who hasn't had to hold a job in the past 20 years. She got the message....CLEARLY. She knew exactly what side of her bread held the butter.

  Too many times I see JWs bend over ass backwards trying to follow some stupid JW rule or principle in an effort to look good in the congregation and keep pace with the organization, yet offload the expenses of all their decisions to someone else and expect for them to be paid for.

  I've observed over the years that the WT organization does this in a big way.

  Looks like its time to play the headship card.....

  
  

  If she's as staunch a XX chromosome JW as she thinks she is, she'll have no choice but to agree.

  My brother-in-law just graduated PSS

  by Frazzled UBM in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so i was scrolling down facebook and i saw that my brother-in-law was getting lots of likes and congrats (including sadly from my wife) for graduating pss.

  initially i thought peter pan (he is incredibly immature for a 23 year old) had gone against character and completed some sort of educational or vocational course until i found that pss stood for pioneer service school.

  i was tempted to comment how sad this was but instead commented that "no matter how much you do they will always make you feel like it is not enough".

  Isn't this just what the organization is good at.....shifting their operating expenses to others as often as they can get away with.

  How to?

  by OneFingerSalute in

  1. forum
  2. tech-support

  i cannot use the "quote" feature.. if i click on the quote marks it does the hi-lite of the quote i wish, but i cannot under any circumstances get out of the yellow quote box to create my own post.. i would like to know how other posters are able to do this.

  i use both ie and firefox.

  the same thing happens in both of them.. also hi-liting no longer works as it used to.

  You have to admit, the carrot is pretty alluring.

  there were several families that were visiting my mom today and i was sitting in and just listening to all of them talk..

  they started talking about the recent shooting at the university.

  and its so easy for them because all they have to say is;.

  This is what I tend to believe as well. They do this to their detriment and if you're in the position where you have to depend upon them for anything to see them fall back on that mantra and let everything go to hell in a hand-basket is excrutiating.

  It is my perception that JWs really don't care about anything much other than feeding the WTBS monster in the hopes that they'll soon get to pet their pet panda and t heir perfect body.

  Effect on youths of Bethel and construction cuts

  by Tornintwo in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know quite a few youths (late teens to early twenties) who have the goal of full time service, as bethelites or international construction, so they're doing the required slog of pioneering in order to achieve this goal.

  this is a goal which has been excitedly set out for them the last few years or so at assemblies etc.

  now they see the cuts, surely they are going to be discouraged and disillusioned.

  2. friends

  just heard from a reliable source that some at the canadian branch have received their lay-off notices under their doors at bethel.

  don't know what the letter looks like.

  probably something like, " the tribe has spoken, bring us your torches"

  Cedars leaked letter requested to be taken down by WTBTS

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i don't know if this is already posted so sorry people if it is.

  cedars site has had a request to take down the leaked letter regarding changes to the theocratic ministry school and other issues.. the reason given by wt is that it is a "copyright" issue.

  of course this validates the letters authenticity even more.. have a good day or night people.

  He said that just because a letter or other publication is made available to the public doesn't mean witnesses should read it but should instead remain obedient to the wishes of mother not to read it

  ROFLMAO.......

  A pissed off elder angry because he's been "scooped"!!!!
