Can someone confirm this:
The JWs were told to not record the talk or take notes?
just wondering if any one has heard from ones still asleep, what their feedback has been and what comments have been made by the rank and file??.

the trouble with women is that they have a breaking point.
it comes when their needs are not being met or they are not respected.
and, that is a beauty too.
The trouble with women is that they have a breaking point. It comes when their needs are not being met or they are not respected. And, that is a beauty too. Becuase, it is this trait that is snap women out of Kingdum Land.
JWs were expecting this Zone Meeting to be an earthshaking event. it was the first time the Governing Body, who sits with Jesus's hand, to speak. It was a chance to address the needs of women & children. Jesus spoke of bringing children to Him, of not ridiculing the prostitute, healing women with ailments. By all accounts, Jesus adored women and children. Was there a message to the struggling JW woman?
JW women are asked alot by their religion:
- Pressures to go against natural instinct by not marrying, but pioneering.
- Pressures to go against natural instinct and refrain from having children.
- If they do get married, their husbands can beat them. If they complain, the elders will tell them to be patient with Jehovah (while they get the crap beat out of them) and have more sex with their abuser.
-If they have children and their children are molested in the Kingdumb Hall, they are not supposed to go to the police nor speak ill against the pedophile.
-They are at much more risk to dying from blood loss (hysterectomy, child birth).
-They have to ignore their maternal instinct and fight against blood transfusions for their children, despite the policy being based on misquotes, fraud, flip-flops, and complete allowance of blood (just not by that name).
-They have to be great housekeepers, children raisers, make meetings & assemblies, and are expected to pioneer.
-Their children are being expected to get baptised younger & younger, with full knowledge that the mom will probably have to shun them at some point during their teenage/young adult years.
(feel free to add)
Was any of their plight or hard work or outright manipulation of their natural instincts and fears addressed? Nope.
Instead, NO YOGA PANTS and NO SPANX and MARRY A BROTHER WHO IS AT LEAST AN MS BY 23 YEARS OLD.
This is going to send the women running. The marraige pool just shrunk. The most comfortable casual pants are no longer allowed. Worse, undergarments that make them look good at the Kingdumb Hall are now not allowed. And, Jesus's Right Hand man said so. It's obvious that he misconstrued what Spanx are verses Yoga Pants. The GB is just men, who don't understand women. . . . . How different is that from Jesus.
the news stated this week that blue jeans are not fashionable any longer.
a fad that got started as a working mans pants is being replaced by yoga pants.
or, sweat pants.
Didn't he speak wildly against Spanx. I bet every JW woman was shaking her head. Spanx are not outer layers, they are UNDERWEAR & Girdles that sucks a chick's fat in to make a smoother appearance. I bet every JW woman over 25 years old has Spanx in her closet. All that dress wearing, and one needs Spanx, I am told. Spanx are no different than control top pantyhose. The women are really getting an eye-opener that Jehovah's most faithfully picked Governing Body don't know shit.

Yoga pants are great. Nothing wrong with them. They cover up, make great outer or under garments. Add a t-shirt and heels or wear them with flip-flops. Versitile, and always fits. In the gym, you can bend over in them without risk of shorts showing more than you want. Yoga pants make great casual or workout wear. You can ride a bike in them, without fear of getting caught in the chain. You can skate with them, without fear of the blade getting caught in the pant. Many "jeans" are now just "Jeggings", a super stretchy denim cut like a Yoga Pant with belt loops.
The Governing Body is Booty obsessed. They're all about covering up that bass. They're all about that bass, about that bass, about that bass . . .
the only video that i've found of tomo is 39:00 minutes long - the ending is missing.. various posts mentioned highlights of the tremendous witness in august, with a 900% increase in ap's, as well as some other magnificent accomplishment that i cannot locate.. then i painfully listened to the video to verify, and at about 38:00, tomo bemoans the downward trend in bible studies.. the best august of all-time, yet downward trend.. looks like the toilet bowl is swirling.. .

Many JWs are too old to have kids now, were not encouraged to have kids when they were younger, and the kids they bore left. The End was supposed to come already, and a decreasing population of JWs wasn't supposed to happen. But, reality sucks. Now, there is a decrease in Bible studies.

EndofMysteries, I am not dealing with even a normal JW. This man has obsessive thought disorder and is, for better words, in need of help. I've told him various things from
-don't believe in it
-here's proof blood is wrong, actual misquotes
-here's proof the generation teaching is wrong (or flip flops)
-pedophile cases
-don't agree with not goign to college
-disfellowshipping is wrong
-don't call me (about 25 times). Want no part of it. Let's agree to talk about anything but God or religion.
-JWs are a cult (about 100 times). (Yes, used the word "CULT" several times).
He gives it 2 weeks, and then sends me more stuff. Letters, certified letters, e-mails, texts, visits me not to be a friend . . . but to sit in a chair and read Bible scriptures to me from his phone. I leave the room, and he still reads. Call it a cult several times, yell at him. Then, he goes into another room and calls the elders, says, "Skeeter's demon possessesd", leaves, then in 2 weeks . . HE's BACK! (no, I am not kidding).
He tells me that he bugs other householders too. Even sent them nasty messages when they don't show up for a Bible study for 3 weeks.
So, finally, cutting off the e-mail, telling him texts cost me too much money, threatening the elders and a restraining order has worked. But, now the JWs will give him new reason to contact me. Becuase, he will have forgotten in 2 weeks.
why important: many that we meet in the.
ministry are polite.
however, jesus prophesied.
First of all, to find a householder at home is rare. Second, to find a householder who actually knows the grit on JW blood & disfellowshipping at the first call is going to be even rarer.
What I think is happening, from my own still-in relatives, is that people from other religions are baiting the JWs into Bible Studies. My relatives live in a place where Baptist is king. They get into heated debates on the Bible, and then the blood and disfellowshipping come out.
I also think that many JWs don't really believe the blood & disfellowshipping crap. As evidenced by many who get blood when in need. But, this article is about appearances....

I blocked the e-mail of the JW who kept sending me crap. He wanted me to text him, but I told him it costs me $1 a text to send and to receive. Then, I told him to put me on a "do not call" list, one last & final time. He never adheres to it, so I know he's going to break it.
If he doesn't adhere to that, I warned him that I will go to the elders and the police (cyber bullying) for the start of a restraining order. That was a several months ago. Now, there will be a renewed push to e-mail & text me. But, I will not get his e-mails. We'll see if he figures out a way, like making a new e-mail addresss to get around my block. But, for now, I have Peace!!!

They are going to show the scripture on abstaining from blood . . . but that doesn't counter their acceptance of all of blood, just in parts. They themselves have flipped several times on blood.
They themselves has flipped on disfellowshipping and shunning.
So easy for someone who knows a little on JW history of blood and shunning to shed light for the JW.
Personally, I can't beleive that they actually mentioned "blood and shunning" to the rank and file. It's like "don't look at the Internet". Now, many JWs are going to brush up on the blood and shunning, use the internet, and find the real dirt on the JW's own policy.
