They are making it clearer and clearer: Responsible representatives = Governing Body"Holy spirit helps responsible representatives of “the faithful and discreet slave” at world headquarters to discern deep truths that were not previously understood."

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..

They dont even benefit themselves. They leach off themselves and likewise leech off society. If their work is so lifesaving, why is it not that important to complete the circuit of cities or whatever?

Cagefighter: Rome gave away free bread and entertainment to the lower classes to keep them happy and quiet while corruption ate the empire from the inside out. Think about that while you wait on your direct deposit.
Soo.... tax breaks aren't a good thing? This year there are more tax credits than in recent history (or at least as long as I've been paying taxes). And you treat this as a bad thing. Do you even know what you stand for?

I got my biggest tax refund ever this year. At some point I almost felt a little guilty, but then quickly said to myself "screw that!" and am now happily awaiting my direct deposit refund.

Some JW's are unaffected by their contact with the Borg for the same reasons that pigeons don't know they're alive.
by gubberningbody inwhy pigeons don't know they're alive.
have you ever tried hunting pigeons?
it is remarkably easy.

While animal self-consiousness has only been speculated upon, it is quite true that animals do indeed feel pain. Either this entire article is a farce, or the guy is a moron. In either case, gubberningbody doesn't know what he's talking about.

Can't think of anything more nauseating than a 3D television in my house. Why don't I just paint the house in red and blue stripes while I'm at it?

Are you so faded that Actives no longer encourage but respect you?
by Wasanelder Once ini know it sounds strange but all the jw's i have contact with are no longer "encouraging" me to attend meetings.
in fact not one of them invited me to the memorial even though we had dinner together at my house three nights before.
i think i have them totally bamboozled with my reasoning why i don't attend.

Interesting. Yes, I think I'm at that point. There is a point where you are no longer necessarily considered "spiritually weak" and you are given a degree of defference.
