  How the organization's bad advice messes up young people

  by kneehighmiah in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so recently a governing body helper gave a part on the convention.

  he said young ones who are saying and not financially ready should knock it off.

  what conflicting advice.

  Their advice to young people has but one objective- to steer them into a life of servitude to the organization. The long term consequences to the individual don't matter in the least to them.

  Have you ever been called for Jury Duty? before or after registering to vote?

  by EndofMysteries in

  i've never been called for jury duty and i'm not yet registered to vote, although i'm hoping to get that done this month.

  i know someone who within a few months of registering to vote was called for jury duty.

  i've read some articles that said voter records 'used' to be used to call on people but that was a thing of the past.

  I got called once (after registering to vote). The day before I was supposed to report, I was told that I had fulfilled my obligation, and didn't have to serve.

  isn't it sickning when normaly people in the cong don't even speak to you.

  but when the co visits comes they want to shake your hand and even (cringe) hug you?

  then as soon as he leaves back to normal.

  On a typical Saturday, there might be 30 or 40 people out in service.

  That many? What a zealous congregation you attended

  The flood story

  The violence of the Old Testament

  The notion that people's salvation at Armageddon depended on how they responded when JWs came uninvited to their home

  That so many bad elders were somehow appointed by holy spirit

  That dying by refusing a blood transfusion is showing respect for life

  I was told essentially the same thing by an elder after 9/11. "It's 3000 people who wouldn't have survived Armageddon anyway."

  The most amazing part is how they can state publicly that they don't practice shunning, and even condemn other religions for doing it, and then put this out in print for people to see. Talk about brass.

  Wow more heavy artillery propaganda from the 11/14 WT!!!!!

  by BU2B in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  every paragraph and every article in this issue is nonstop heavy artillery fire propaganda.

  i have never seen a wt so full of logical fallacies, appeals to emotion, appeals to authority, guilt tripping and bite techniques all in one issue!

  paragraph 9 states clearly that even though the gb is imperfect, that does not matter, we must obey them anyways.

  It may not have been written so blatantly or directly before. But the idea that JWs should be obedient to the GB is really nothing new. Sadly, most of them won't even bat an eye.

  by jam in

  1. social
  2. humour

  jw's walk like this, they eat this way, they look like this,.

  they have sex this way (lol), they talk this way and etc.. are we excessively concerned with or critical of inconsequential.

  details??.

  I've actually thought about this. But as was said before, I think it's mostly just venting on people's part.

  I think there are people on this forum who will find a way to blame the WT for every evil under the sun. And I usually just roll my eyes when people dig up WT articles from 50 years ago, as if they've discovered some golden nugget that's going to expose them.
