  Are You Easily Offended? 😠

  by minimus in

  i'm sick and tired of everyone claiming to be "offended".

  if you are not politically correct, you will need to apologize for some perceived slight.. when i was an elder, i purposely avoided as much as i could, anybody that got easily offended.

  What I would like to see soon!

  i would like to see one or better two members of the governing body get disfellowshipped and they both go off to write books like ray franz exposing the cult to all the sexual scandals, the hidden agendas with the stock market investments, the lawsuits, the laying of long time bethel workers, hidden sins by the higher ups and all the other nasty skeletons in the watchtower closet..

  what would be different today compared to rays time is that we now live in a social media world..

  they would be invited to talk in the oprah winfrey show, ellen degeneres show, the view, dateline.

  I'm not suggesting he be paid for defection, but a gift would be helpful. They receive gifts now, what's the difference. It'd be best to not set it up until after the GB member was ousted otherwise it would be seen as a bribe or payment for leaving. Of course the org would spin it, but if it's setup as the Christian/humane thing to do I think the J-dubs wouldn't have anything to say about it.

  Seriously? People want to give money to GB members?

  Yes. In the same way that people helped Ray Franz when he left. If the GB member is leaving due to the same crisis of conscience and is basically kicked to the curb, why shouldn't we be supportive. He was just as blinded as we were while still in. The fact that he woke-up and took a stand would merit at least some support. I don't think he should be given a golden parachute, but something to cushion the fall would be appropriate.

  Can they not receive literature from another branch? Or is that seen as receiving an outside donation?

  perhaps a country soon to have a ban...

  Let's hope not. Bans do nothing but strengthen their resolve.

  I think many would be willing to contribute to a GoFundMe campaign for a GB member that defected. It's funny because we would be showing more of a Christian attitude than the org.

  What could they do to a person who signed an NDA? It's not like they have any money. Ray left with $10,000 to his name. I'd be happy to lose whatever money they gave as a "severance" in order to spill the truth.

  i went to the meeting last night.

  to keep the peace for now, i guess.

  anyway...... during the bible highlights, a newly appointed ms explained why construction is being curtailed in some areas.

  Maybe that's a rumor that is leaked so they can later pin the problems on a fall-guy?

  THE WTBTS AND "PARTIAL DISTINCTIONS" (JAMES 3:17)

  by Nicholaus Kopernicus in

  draw close to jehovah.

  chapter 22 - is the wisdom from above at work in your life?.

  paragraph 18 - not making partial distinctions, not hypocritical"godly wisdom rises above racial prejudice and national pride.

  That is why I started a goatee for "No-shave November" (would be a beard, but my sideburns don't grow) and I will continue to keep the goatee after November. I look forward to the "partial distinctions" that will be made towards me. I will wear the goatee as a badge of honor and maybe will help some other to think for themselves.
