  Is the Society trying to self sabotage?

  by truthseeker in

  i'm not going to list all the changes here that have happened in 2014, most of you who frequent the boards know about them.. in reference to anthony morris' talk, i can't help feel that the organization is behaving so abnormally out of character for itself that it is bewildering even to ex jws.. cultish behavior is perfectly normal for cults, but whats happened this year is so far out of whack it beggars belief.. what do they think they are doing?

  are they psyching jws up for some major announcement?.

  i can't help but feel that something really strange is going on, this does not feel like the regular "special announcements" followed by articles in the watchtower.. .

  How can they become a more mainstream lifestyle religion when they are desperate for so much control over the R&F's lives?

  Meta is right, if you can't even control "your own household", then you're unqualified to lead.

  The test of faith is that sisters now have an even harder time to find a brother to marry because AM just reduced the already small pool even further by telling them they shouldn't marry anyone who isn't a MS. The org is basically using marriage and hence sex as a chip to coerce brothers into reaching out and/or accepting appointments as ministerial servants. Expect to see more brothers marrying unbelievers. Seems like the org is trying to create or deepen the divide between the loyal, uppity JWs and the more moderate, easy going among them.

  Once again, they shit on the women folk.

  The Holy Ghost is like a Blanket was released August 2013, so who was first? Or did they come out around the same time?

  How to Knock Nazi Elders off their high horse

  the borg has many inconsistencies, when the topic is helping humble and honest people achieve their full potential.

  consider a working man who works 40 to 60 hours a week and still manages to show up to all the meetings, participate, do all of his assigned work within the kh, but his ministry has slipped to 8 hours per month.

  this same man is working hard to move up within the ranks only to get shut down without even knowing.. .

  Ive known many like this piece of human crap that you mentioned. Good. I hope he drives more people out of the borg. It sucks and its not fair and all, but its a cult and they tolerate aholes like this person. Its people like him that make some wake up abd realize that joke hovas borganization isn't what they think.
