  Does Obsession With Sexual Sin Ruin Governance?

  http://www.allgov.com/news/unusual-news/jpmorgan-chase-bank-closes-accounts-of-porn-actors-140426?news=853008.

  so a bank that freely violates the law, commits massive fraud, launders drug money and lies to investors is too moral to take money from porn stars.

  one of the things i realized as an ex-jw is that masses of people are deceived and distracted by sexual mischief/sins while ignoring vastly more harmful wrongdoing in general society.

  Are we all actually "bad / evil / immoral" after leaving the faith?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so recently there have been several posts with references to talks and articles that imply the following:.

  most of those who learn ttatt or fade from the "truth", are actually practicers of bad things, eg immorality, hence that is why 'we' now find fault with the org?.

  i find this so offensive that they imply such.

  Letters to the Body of Elders (BOE) - Change in Letterhead

  within the last few hours, two separate posters, watchtower87 and pixel, independently posted news of a april 22nd, 2014 letter to the boe regarding a change in how elders are to be appointed and deleted:.

  boe - pdf - confidential 2014-04-22 adjustment in process for appointing elders and minisletter to boe: adjustment in process for appointing elders and ministerial servantswhat i found very interesting is the letterhead and the signature.

  they are both from "the governing body of jehovah's witnesses" and not from "the christian congregation of jehovah's witnesses.".

  Interesting. I'm not aware of any legal changes. That's strange. I do recall thinking back when they restructured the corporations that it was a way to protect assests. And I was still a believer lol. Of course then I thought that might make it harder for the guv'ment to shut them down or something.

  poor sod.

  i felt quite sorry for him in the end.. for context, i was brought up as a jw since i was very young.

  i left 6 years ago (faded) a little before turning 30. i was on here a lot around that time but under a different profile that's no longer active.. for the past 18 months, i'm back living in the territory of the congregation i grew up in.

  i don't know if this was mentioned but i spoke with a jw from atlanta, georgia that informed me that the great gb has approved jw auditions.. yes, you read that right!

  now the jw's will have their own jw idol, jw voice, and dancing with jw stars, lol.. they are using an assembly hall in atlanta and jw's from all over are auditioning from 8am till 6pm.. supposedly the idea is to have live entertainment for the delegates traveling from overseas for the international conventions.. he said they have had jw's who can play all the hits from the beatles, play merengue, salsa, sing, dance, etc.. the gb is trying hard to make their cult look normal.. some of the questions this rises are,.

  will it work?

  A few International Conv instructions (more ways to control)

  by doinmypart in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a few official instructions jw delegates are being told leading up to the international conventions.

  congregation secretaries are holding conference calls and then relating the instructions to the congregation.. atlanta - do not drive to convention, parking will not be available.

  take public transportation; attendants will be on all public transit and able to assist.. dallas - attendants will be on site at all hotels to make sure delegates leave the hotel at their assigned times and take their assigned route.

  LOL good point DD!

  Those bastards in the borg would gladly sacrifice some of the JWs to make everyone more fearful.
