  Just two weeks in our new home and the knock at the door happens!!

  just relaxing with my morning coffee enjoying looking at the pictures fipper shared of the camping trip when the dreaded knock came.

  of course the dogs beat me to the door followed by my daughter trying to catch them, she looks through the giant peep hole and waves me away saying "its them.

  " i almost just walked away from the door when i saw the sweet face of a 5/6 year old little boy with his mom and dad and couldn't resist talking to them.. i opened the door and smiled and said jehovah's witnesses?

  JWs With A Financial Interest In The Org

  by JW_Rogue in

  2. experiences

  through personal experiences which i'd rather not relate because it would give away my identity i have come to a realization.

  many brothers own businesses that a greatly supported by witness activities.

  when local congregations need some service they will prefer to do business with a jw.

  oooooooooooooooooohh i get it now-----and i thought it was all just the usual good old armageddon / resurrection / new world / everlasting life bolllocks that my old dad and mum bought into.

  so it really is just a money making scam for those in the know----ripping off and stitching up the rank and file.

  i ought to get back in quick--ive got a few ideas that should see me right.

  Curious JW Insurance salesman...

  by cognitivedizzy in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  found this interestinga week ago...recently i had a brother who does life insurance for a living call me to see if i was interested in a offering, since i was keen on taking up a insurance policy for my 1 year old daughter for her education purpose 20 years down the line i told him that he can come over,fast forward todayhe comes over with his manager (not a jdub) and we have a long chat about the various long term insurance plans... i found it very strange that a guy who believes that the world end is imminent would be so keen on selling me a policy with a tenure of 20 to 25 years .. in my mind , i'm thinking " is he serious ??

  "well after i agree to buy a policy for my child and specifically stating that its for her future education to pursue whatever higher education she likes, the manager encourages me saying " that's amazing , cos of education will increase in the future so on etc "... btw i live in a developing country when education is not free...so i'm done with all the paper works and the manager leaves, so its just me and the brother ( who is a ms by the way )i asked him, doe she really think i made a good choice paying for a expensive insurance plan for 20 years with good returns considering the end was so near..he was dumbstruck i aksed the question, he took a moment and hesitated and said this !!!

  !he was like "i don't ever think the world will end anytime soon "do i sense another dissenter .... perhaps a fellow man.... i'm excited :)

  i was a very busy life insurance salesman when i was a dub back in the 60's---and so were a lot of other brothers i knew. easy money--pick your own hours---ideal dub-job.

  Something that my devout JDUB cousin said...

  by yogosans14 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we used to be so close before she got heavily involved in the jw religion.

  she actually got me into it (i actually believed all the nonsense) and i went to meetings with her and everything, we were like brother and sister.

  she lives in texas now in a remote area where their is no cell phone signal or anything with her dad and mom (i think they said they moved their to get closer to jehovah which is weird).

  Index of acronyms : help for new forumers

  by Mary J Blige in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  am finding a whole lot of acronyms that are really foreign to me and i now have an appreciation for what cult language sounds like to non-culters.

  wondering please if you can post your definitions so i can get up to speed.

  otherwise, as an indoctrinated ex-culter, i am inclined to create my own new light and swiftly it will be gospel.

  so--was she faded when you met and married her ?--did she go back into cult mode after you married her---do you think that is the key to this ?

  My sister is being harassed by the elders

  by opusdei1972 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  sometime ago i wrote here in this forum about the case of my sister, who decided to stop attending the meetings because she realised that the watchtower society is an evil organization.

  this happened more than one year ago.

  i am not living in the same country of my sister, so i learn about her case when she calls me or when she write me through whatsapp.

  just tell her to report to the police she feels frightened and intimidated by these 2 men who keep pestering her. she has to say she feels her life may be in danger because they seem to be deranged. make sure all that is on police record.

  then--she gets a gun and shoots them dead if they threaten her again. but she might still end up disfellowshipped.
