There is probably some correlation between 'Annointed' and 'mental issues', eg attention seeking.

Start planning now for 2014- the 100th anniversary of 1914
by moshe init's not too soon to start mentioning that to jw's- let them know that 100 years is a long time and even g-d only made the israelites wander in the wilderness for 40 years, before he brought them to the promised land.
let the doubt begin creeping in and let the jw's know they aren't the only ones with doubts.
i will mention 2014 to jw's from now on- it's a date that the wt hopes the jw's will ignore..

So you're out of retirement..? Do you think JWs will put any bearing on the 100th Anniversary of 1914...? I don't understand how they will make any comparison, they don't actually 'think'...

Dubs - Paradoxes From Hell
by Farkel indubs - paradoxes from hell.
jesus said his yoke was kindly and light.. dubs brag their religion is the "hardest religion in the world.".
the bible tells children to honor their parents.. the wts tells children to betray their parents.. if dubs really live in a "spiritual paradise," why do their lives have to be threatened to stay in it?.

Jehovah's Witnesses---A Religion That Does Nothing For Anyone
by minimus inthe reality is: jehovah's witnesses benefit no one but themselves!.
they don't contribute to society.
they refuse to get involved in local interests because that would constitute violating their neutrality.. if sexual abuse allegations are made amongst their members, unless two witnesses can attest to the molestation, they refuse to get the "superior authorities" involved.. they claim to be doing their neighbors a "life saving" work but the reality is that they simply are pests to their "householders".. they are a tax free "religion" and they do not pay taxes.. they are judgmental people and regard the "world" as "worldly" and in the "power of the wicked one".. and if the individual members do not conform to the organization's dictates, they might very well be "shunned" and regarded as "dead".. why anyone would want to be a jehovah's witness is beyond me..

Heaven - 'only a very small amount, if any of the money donated actually gets to the people in need'.
I heard this continually as a reason to never donate to charity. Is it something made up by the WT? The WT itself is a 'charity'...and how much of what is donated goes where the 'donatees' think it does..?

Most Annoying Things That Happen At JW Meetings
by LittleSister intoday i was remembering how angry i used to get at the meetings and all the little irritations that in the end would just make my blood boil these included:.
prayers that go on foreverstudy or wt conductors still taking comments when its clear that the point has been covered 20 times alreadymeetings over running by more than 5 minsmy favourite was this one elder who would play guess the point i am thinking of.
he would keep rephrasing the question from the wt until someone would bring up the point he was thinking of.

People taking notes like they have never heard such great things in their lives.
YES! We all did it...God knows why, as they never made sense, lol (and did anyone ever READ the notes they made..? I never did...looking back I think it was 'the only acceptable thing to do' while sitting through hours of mind numbing trash). I think it must have been part of the 'this is VERY important' mentality.

Governing Body two-thirds majority
by wannabefree ini believe current count is 9 gb, so that makes 6 out of 9 for it to be so?.
how about two-thirds when all 10,800 or so are given a say?.

Another example of how ridiculous new doctrine etc is. If the FDS is God's channel, then they would always be 100% in agreement...(I mean God would relay same important info to all)

When you fully believed it was the truth .
by Broken Promises indid you intend to leave your estate to the wts when you died?.
in several threads ive read, ppl make comments to the effect that theres no point leaving money to jws, because they would just leave the money to the wts anyway.. .
this is an assumption that i believe is a generalisation.. .

Nope, never. My children are entitled to/deserve their inheritance. The WT doesn't need more riches, with the 'End' being imminent and Jehovah providing.

JW's being asked not to marry?
by life is to short inok another poster just went to the two day assembly and i just went to the one day special assembly day sunday.
at both of them it seems there was strong words against getting married.
they had on the stage a group of young men about three of them an older sister who is not that attractive but she is really nice, of course not brother would give her the time of day, and this older brother who is in his 60's and nice but very strange.. they all went on and on and on about not getting married.

They need to marry to breed new WT-fodder, as recruitement cannot be an option anymore.

I once knew a sister that was extrememly talented in cake decorating (and baking...some people can bake but the cake tastes like crap).... she even worked for a bakery for a time...
How can JWs be bakers..? What if a customer wants a birthday cake..? Petty, I know, but you know how pedantic dubs are....surely it would offend/stumble if a JW had to decorate a birthday cake..?

I imagine a slightly overweight single pioneer in her 30's with two cats and one eyebrow made that.
Hilarious...and all I thought was, 'for WHAT special occasion would they go to the trouble of making that..?'
