JW.org is a real estate and publishing company disguesd as a religion.
by UNCONDITIONAL LOVE insince my awakening i have tried to understand why and how people could continue to believe so blindly in a proven false "religious" cult that has such an extensive and detailed record of scandals, lies and cover ups???
i've come to the personal conclusion that there are three major reasons.
i call them the 3 f-ups!

um, in the daytime hours I do believe it's a well known fact if it's a clear day the sky is blue, only a JW would mention sunrise or sunset . . . -

How much do you think the internet has hurt JW growth?
by HereIgo inthe internet is what helped bring me and so many others out of this evil organization or at least confirmed our doubts.
i have to say, i have seen quite a few youtube videos recently of ex jw's secretly recording their interactions inside of different congregations, halls, etc and see how empty the halls are!
so many people comment on how the attendance is so low, far more emptier than when i was in 6 years ago, even on a weekday meeting.

Of course the internet has hurt growth, remember when the internet first caught on and at the meetings they used to admonish the brothers and sisters to stay away from it? Why do you think they did that?
But to show you their hypocrisy, they had a website back then . . just goes to show you what a cult is all about

on a clear day Unconditional, on a clear day, the sky is blue, you're kinda sounding like the JWs who just hate to admit when you prove them wrong

As those of us on this board have learned over the years, saying that the Borg is nothing but a real estate and publishing company is just like saying the sky is blue.

When I hear these fake news stories that are manufactured by the Org. I always say , Where are they now?. or tell me the rest of the story.
Yup, I've always wondered why they don't do a "Where Are They Now", like the show on Oprah's network. Maybe they did try to do that but found out that the faithful servants from twenty years ago who turned down good jobs and education have since seen their own new light and left the Borg.

If he's an older brother he might not want to bring reproach on Jehovah or the Org with a lawsuit. Only the newer blind followers would think of a lawsuit

Do you know anything about Live Kingdom Hall?
by Hecce ini learned recently about this link that allows for a person to listen or watch the meetings at the kh that have contracted the service.
you have the option to watch the meeting live or just listen.
there will be a recording of the audio available until the next meeting.. i don't think that this is an official wt arrangement, it might be a private enterprise like the preaching materials .

I guess the video part is new, but my mother used to dial in and listen to the meetings when she got older and couldn't get to the KH

Chapter 28 Part B New Boy 50 years a Watchtower slave
by new boy inback in the nineteen seventies hundreds of cars were stolen, in the city every day!
the new york post said "the average life span of a corvette stingray (sports car) parked on the street in new york was only 24 hours!".
one time driving back from rhode island at 2:00 a.m. i took a wrong turn in the south bronx’s.

Princess Ashe- I have to ask, like the cop asked you, you did see the sign, so why did you call the Police? Was it your JW mindset at the time? That's the only thing I can think of, you can't feel sorry for people who are warned, but then just go ahead and knock on the door, you get what you ask for
Toshibabadu - What was the mental condition of this sister that was conducting a study in a drug den? Even my very extremely naive, Uber JW mother wouldn't have sat down in a place like that!
