i was thinking the other day (i know, i know, bad dub, no thinking allowed!)...
did you ever notice the screwy logic that we are led to believe is the truth?
like ezekiel 33:8:.
Really good point. I also always figured that if it was soooooooo goddamn important that somebody be warned... Shouldnt GOD do it himself....? I mean, if its soooooooo bad that he has to kill someone and its sooooo bad that if i dont warn them i have to die.... Why dosent god warn them himself? Why send me? Its complete bullhockey and a total shifting of responsibility.
Its also good cause to take the judeo/christian narrative for the manipulative nonsense it is
hi,.
with the layoffs of bethelites and special pioneers, does anyone know if they get some sort of "redundancy" payout?
.
Gb is not the same as bethelite by any stretch. Im sure there would be hush money paod in case that happened again
i am inclined to start this thread in response to some comments made in other threads.
i have been coming around these forum for quite some time now so whatever you find in here is not just related to something someone may have said this week.
it can go months back as well.. i have seen many who claim to respect the belief of others but when it comes down to applying it into practice, things take a whole different tune.

I loved my children before they born or i had any knowledge of them as individuals.
i have loved cars and planes at first glance, simply on their design.
ive loved women ive never meet having only seen pictures in magazines.
Knowledge can enhance love but its not a prerequisite for it.

i agree that love is counter (if not totally opposite) to love.
love is emotional and irrational. Knowledge is based on facts and nonemotional assesments of facts.
Seems like a solid statment to me
i know we are all anonymous for our own personal reasons, so i understand if you would rather not say.
but if you don't mind sharing that would be cool.
i currently live in georgia, usa.
now that district overseers have been deleted, now that bethelites are being devalued and increasingly dismissed, now that special pioneers are being deleted in u.s., and maybe elsewhere gradually.
who would have ever thought?.
yet, now what is the value to be a regular pioneer to the org?
Interesting question gale but i take the opposite view. As i see if, pioneers have zero downside for the org so why not have as many as possible? Its always been a tiered system of service and rank and pioneer is the best some can ever achieve since they lack a penis. They arnt a a paticular drain since so much literature is digital now. Its simple numbers for them.... Send as many as you can out to recruit and see what sticks. Its all free, who cares!
we had co visit recently & it appears that the co told the elders of the congregation that the scriptures indicated on the wt to be "read" on the watchtower study are only to be read by 1 brother in the entire study.... the elder conducting the watchtower announced that at the wt mtg... i was like what???
only men?....
has anyone else had this occur in their congregation?
Yea it was in the letter when they sent directions on the "study edition" five or six years ago. Few congregations follow it
