Working late tonight I just thought this up : Whenever we used to hear someone say " so and so is not doing well spiritually™ " or "not doing well in the truth™ " what it really means is they aren't doing well climbing the WTBTS's corporate ladder or doing their beck and call following the herd cult thingy. Been brought up before but had to share..feel free to add.

When Lafontaine Hall was built in St-Jérome Qc. in 2006 one of the elders suggested taking out personal loans to cover the new build.. Not one of us knew that the hall would be eventually commandeered by the WTBTS.. I'm not sure the still in there even now know. Great vid Mike and Kim !

That JW video YPA What Will I do With My Life : ABSOLUTELY HATED IT WHEN IT CAME OUT. Saw it for what it was worth back then, huge piece of WTBT$ propaganda. Was already doubting the org. at that point. Seriously frustrated me that vid. I down voted it above felt good, hehe !!
As a matter of fact I never liked ANY video that they came out with, so much self serving propaganda and very little to do with faith.

Eloise Dupuis died of a lack of blood and refusal of transfusion
by yalbmert99 injw eloise dupuis (canada, quebec) died last year of a lack of blood and refusal of blood transfusions, while the familly and the jw propaganda machine said it was rather because of an infection.
coroner says however we must respect her belief and there was no undue influence.
he doesn't know the wt it seems.. in french:.

Sad ! I find that here in Québec we have what Eddie Murphy called 'Super Cops" in one of his comedy movies. Or "Super Témoins" in French. Unfortunately this is real life and no comedy.. mes symphathies Steph ton pêre est full témoin. I've met many, like Catholics on steroids..

Another reason Watchtower may be hurting financially
by shepherdless ini don't think anyone else has raised this point.
below i set out the case that the jw demographic in usa has a steadily decreasing combined income, and as a consequence, has less money to donate.
not only is the flock not growing, the flock is producing less wool for the borg to fleece.

the GB's coup of the FDS
by Magnum ini believe the gb's takeover of the fds was an illegal coup - not illegal relative to the laws of land, but illegal according to jw "laws" or doctrine.. according to jw doctrine, the fds is god's channel of communication between heaven and earth.
before the coup, the fds was defined to be all the anointed on earth, and the gb was part of that group and merely the spokesman for the group - individual gb members having no more authority than non-gb members of the fds.. however, a few years ago, the gb, independently of the other members of the fds, decided that it alone was the fds.
that, to me, was an illegal overthrow of the body (fds); it was a coup.. suppose the u.s. president decided that he has all power, and that he removed the powers of the u.s. congress.

Magum PI : Thanks for the post, I copied and pasted it to an email I sent to a reactivated JW business owner in his early sixties. He found it interesting but has since shut down as he mentioned our conversation to an elder. Looks like he's thoroughly enjoying his newfound social circle - country club and doesn't want to jeopardise it by being honest and truthful in his researching of it. Of course he once mentioned to me that many JW's now seem well off compared to when he was growing up in the 'truth' as a kid. This guy even has 1914 in his personal business email. What a nut all social en everything, a real cut above us all.

For sure LHG, yup he got out during the late seventies disco craze, did his thing got married kids and took over his dad,s hop I'm guessing as they've been established lon ago before he was of working age. Yes me mentioned to me a few years ago on how returning to the org he noticed how well off many 'appeared' to be. I'm guessing he noticed all the cleaning business owners with their large less noticeable pool of poor JW's... es him and his wife are having a ball in their new found social club. The guy's in full JW.org adoration mode and he even incorporates 1914 in his email address. Yes I bet you the cong. is happy to have some extra cash coming in from him.

Is exactly what I did, mentioned before often here on the forum so am sorry to bore you all : prayed to God to let me see the real honest truth, the whole reality of the situation, as in "show me" from the Christine movie.. Printed up New Boy's Bethel stories and sat outside in the hot spring sun on a pail in the alley way beside my shop and read for hours. Was the beginning of the end for me, started planning the rest of my life right then and there. No more living in short 6 month to a year time frames for me. Read all the required books and then some. Years later I still feel the need to come here to read and share. It was that big.

Great reply LHG you nailed it ! Funny story one of our shop neighbours has a customer that is a born in, left when he was a young adult and just got back in a couple years ago as it's now convenient for him to do so. He's in his early sixties and I think he is second generation owner operator of his electric motor rewinding shop. Bounced a few things off him which he promptly discussed with an elder how told him to stop talking to me if I'm DF'ed. So what we have here is a successful 60 year old business owner that needs to smell and kiss some elder's butt and act all child like..
