Of course they do!! Isn't persecution the ultimate proof that you're doing the right thing?

Witness ENJOY Being "Persecuted"!
by minimus inthat's the conclusion i've reached.
.
i see persons who love being martyrs by going to the kingdom hall and not being able to literally breathe because they are allergic to perfumes and colognes, and they cough, their eyes water and they actually cry that no one cares about their plight-----but they still go and are "faithful" meeting attenders yet bitch and moan to anyone that will hear them.. then you get those that are handicapped and it's a huge deal to get into a car to go out in service and they cry that nobody really cares about them.. when an elder doesn't pick a person to comment, that martyr will dutifully go to the meetings, say the conductor doesn't like him/her and pray to jehovah for the strength to endure.. i swar, jws love feeling persecuted!.

The letter of changing the book study
by JWRESEARCH ini had a second and a third chance to read the famous letter.. here a few details.
it starts by saying we are in the last days and those who oppose are making things more difficult.
adds that the gb wants to follow the 1st century example (not to add more burden) and quotes acts 15:5,28. mention the raise of gas price (and the dificulties of some families) and suggest to use the free night to family study.

The hidden Watchtower writers.
by edmond dantes inthe watchtower smoke and mirrors dept.
are very fond of saying that appostates who post on the internet are like satan in eden hiding their identity just like the devil who used the serpent.. this begs the question why do the awake and watchtower writers need to hide behind the printing presses of the evil tower, what are they ashamed of or more to the point what is the govening body frightened of ?.
maybe the book club and rip off society are guilty of identity theft in not declaring the names of their writers..

They're not hidden ... don't you see them?
Look! Right there ..... next to all the references and bibliographies for their articles.

Apostate Dilemma
by Princess Daisy Boo inoh, sit tight... i need to tell you a bit of background first.... oh, about 12/13 years ago, when i was still in, i became friends with a little crowd of dubs that were new to our area and cong.
they were quite a liberal bunch - certainly the most liberal i had ever come across and although they were striving for priviledges etc, they got up to a lot of naughty sh!t and definitly committed dfable offences.
well i wasn't exactly innocent either... i was just relieved to have come accross likeminded friends that my parents wouldn't get on my case about.

your happiness and contentment are the biggest anti-witness
Very true! And as compared to the current state of their lives ... you may not need to push the matter at all. Sometimes, being tactful and simply planting seeds of doubt works wonders.

The speaker gave an experiance about a schizophrenic sister that said listening to kingdom melody tapes is better than any medicine prescribed by her doctors
She's schizophrenic ... and they believe her? Kingdumb Maladies would only make her more ill. Are they sure of which personality told them that?

maybe 200+ people that do nothing but churn out page after page of garbage
Yep! No holding down employment ... no fighting to make ends meet ... no dealing with challenges of everyday life either.
Yet still they're spewing out advice for everyone.
