  I would like to have found an honorable and dignified way out 8 years, but still stuck, unable to leave. I often wonder how many others do I know that have are are also awake and trapped. There are some in my congregation that just never answer up, miss meetings etc, that I wonder "Do you know the TTATT?". But for fear out being outted myself, I could never ask them or rise that subject. Should any religion make people fear them in this way? I guess they need to, otherwise people would be leaving in droves if they had a free exit pass..

  Building layoffs & JW calendar 2016 theme

  by Gorbatchov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the theme of the jw calendar 2016 is building, building, building.

  all the calendar pictures are about building wts property with cheap labor witnesses.. and then, just before the year approaches the building has halted.. it seems a short term decision.

  a strange correlation again.. gorby.

  Does the average JW know anything about these building cutbacks? Could get embarrassing if I get asked how do I know about it, if we haven't been officially told yet.

  so ofs got to comment again this morning and thought the comment might bring a smile to someone.the second half question on par.

  15 was, "we cannot actually see jesus, sohow can we look intently at him?".

  ofs commented, "of course, we cannot literally see jesus as peter did.

  I don't even have the nerves to answer up a normal WT answer let alone a slightly off the track answer like that, well done. BTW keep up those answers and you may qualify for a privilege...

  Yeah I can't understand how many more people aren't questioning;

  Questioning means that you are doubting, doubting comes from Satan. You need to keep a clear mind or else you could lose your faith. Having faith in WT and never doubting their words are more important than Gods word.

  Doubt...don't doubt us. We are in the last days. Almost 140 years of being told that the end of this system is almost here, if you start to doubt this, you are losing your faith. Doubting is evil. How many times most we believe the boy (WT) who crys wolf (the end is near) and never be aloud to doubt the boys crys of wolf no matter how many times the wolf doesn't appear.

  Possible reason for cancellation of book study in homes.

  by Amelia Ashton in

  2. scandals

  this was posted on fb.. so guys, i'm gonna share something with you all that i think you should know.

  i've only told two people about this (one being john cedars) for fear of getting this guy into trouble, but it's very telling and will reaffirm your "ttatt faith!

  a couple of weeks ago, i had to have an "ability to protect" assessment by a gentleman from a company that also investigates child protection policies etc.

  The fuel (Gas) price was part of the original reason the WTBTS told us here in NZ that the home book study was finishing. It wasn't long after this that they reversed this reason and then told us that the price of petrol had nothing to do with the home book study arrangement finishing. This updated reasoning was read out to us at more than one meeting.

  Wish they would pull the pin on Regional Conventions, surely that would save them money, save me money too having to travel and accommodation. Do it all with video links.

  They stopped publishing our (New Zealand) detailed figures in "Our KM" about 5 years ago. Prior to that these figures fluctuated by up to 10% each month on 13000 publishers. No one knew why or where these 1000 reports appeared or disappeared to over a one month period, and it was ongoing. Problem solved now that these figures are no longer published monthly.
