A Comment by Lieu Made It Obvious That I Could Not Be A JW in 2016

by TMS in

the following comment by lieu on another topic shows me that i would be totally frustrated, actually exasperated, stifled and depressed in the modern form of jwdom: "therein lies the real problem billy, no one is paying any attention at regular meetings let alone conventions.

it's too boring, intentionally i think.

humans aren't hardwired to sit through hours of lecture with no interactions.

Fisherman, that smacks of Gnostic arrogance. We were there. It's not a mystery religion, just a cult. You are trying to put one over on a bunch of folks who know better.

You wear tight pants and you will be in trouble

i was reading in another forum, that a letter to the elders instructed them to speak to anybody who persists in wearing tight pants.

if changes don't happen then the instructions are to disqualify him from being a publisher but it won't be announced to the congregation.

i am am curious to see if this letter will surface.

But they can't keep child molesters from going d2d. Right. Good to know.

She displayed a literature cart in front of my house: That does it for me!

is this something they've asked them to do?

cart displays in front of their homes?

my mom is only in her mid 60s so i'm quite sure this is not an issue of mental illness.. the only illness she's suffering from is boredom since she's refused to work for years now.

Gaak, I saw young women just sitting on a park bench with wtbts love t propped up on their laps. No witnesses of anything but the fact that they read WT magazine. Which is not attracting attention from anyone but me and other incredulous exes who wish our hours were earned so painlessly. Stupidest witness I ever saw in an organization that is not known for being smart.

I couldn't go. Darn, I was so looking forward to it. God blessed me with a dead battery which was miraculously healed (warranty!) after I finally took it back to autozone.

Mom,there will be no cart witnessing in my front yard. It is forbidden. There is a park/starbucks/mcdonalds in town.

Did you just tell her you don't want her to do it, or to witness to neighbors? she can find a JW buddy and get a territory or witness in some park in another neighborhood.

I never knew an elder who had so much potential to be handsome. . .if he weren't a zombie. There was a definite lack of vitality and it had nothing to do with cancer. The wife was reminiscent of all longsuffering lifetime movie moms,,- the first, late one seen only in brief flash backs. The husband was a lifesize Ken doll. Pretty. It had better production values and actors than the Jesus one that was offensive and on the level of the Mohammad movie a few years ago that everyone was talking about. Anyone notice how in the first few minutes they equate confidence about Jesus with confidence in the WTBTS as having truth? That shepherd was full of zhit.
