  A possible way to get JWs info w/out incriminating oneself?

  by ithinkisee in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have an idea on how to get information in a way that won't get you identified ... i wanted to put it to this forum for scrutiny before i actually put it into practice.

  i am on several people's jw spam list.

  .meaning they constantly send me the same things that go around in other circles, like the "send this to five friends" or they send the scriptures for the week's book study, or they send a "jws in the news" article or something like that.

  JW Lawyers getting fed up with cleaning up after the GB?

  by ithinkisee in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i hope that those that are jw lawyers get tired of the governing body and quit bethel because of the bull shit theyv'e had to clean up after the gb.

  it may be happening right now.

  think about it the gb have issued the call for more lawyers to the congregations,, perhaps there is some disloyalty growing towards the gb being manifested in the legal department and the gb needs help desparately.

  Elder espionage? Currently or in the past?

  by ithinkisee in

  1. watchtower

  i searched the board but didn't see much about it.. do you think there are any elders currently serving that are only serving, or only strove to be an elder so they could get damaging and damning info in order to bring the org down?.

  i am seriously thinking it might be a good idea for me since all i have to do is reach out for it and i would be an ms again, and probably an elder within a year or two.

  (scary, huh?).

  time to swallow the red pill.. right now both books remain unopened - sealed in the amazon.com box buried in a backpack in the trunk of my car.

  i feel like i'm smuggling drugs or something.. i'll be starting coc tomorrow ... .

  this is more of a vanity post than anything.

  Is there a name for this kind of JW tactic?

  by ithinkisee in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  is there an actual psychological term or whatever for this kind of jw tactic?.

  the tactic is where they head the opposing arguments off at the pass, like when a new person studies and they get to the point where they want to make a stand for "the truth".

  the person studying with them will tell them to "expect opposition from your family, this is satan trying to get at you because now you have found the truth and he's mad.".

  i was reading jay's 20-part story over on freeminds.

  amazing stuff.. at one part he says "then sometime later a time magazine article was released which discussed what happened with ray franz.

  in a subsequent issue of time, i also saw a letter from ray franz where he clarified some aspects of the original story.".

  KM in 1974 praising people for selling all their stuff and pioneering?

  by ithinkisee in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  someone on this site mentioned they got a km off ebay that praised those that sold all their belongings and preached.. does anyone know which km that was?.

  interesting, when going through the society's cd-rom i noticed that the drama for the district convention in 1975 was about noah's ark and was something along the lines of "there's still time left!

  " (i'm paraphrasing).. -dm
