If we are the progeny of some kind of creator (whether aliens, or a deist or pantheistic version of God or whatever), then we are in the image of whatever we are the progeny of; so, yes, it follows we should better understand ourselves and go within to understand what 'God' is rather than wasting time praying to some mythological, aloof, silent and anthropomorphic God. Our own heart, mind and conscience are all we need to follow 'God'.

So this bizarre and seemingly miraculous encounter is just a source of amusement and the 'healing' dismissed by you as psychosomatic or coincidental? -

Really lousy coverage on this site of this years AGM. Last year someone was there sending regular and accurate updates. Not a single solid comment here about any doctrinal changes except something about Ezekiel. Pathetic. -

That's in really bloody poor taste considering the subject matter being joked about. Grow up. -

These dumbed down publications are mostly aimed at third world countries or refugees from those countries with less literacy and education I'd say.

New songs, more simplified books for third world preaching, fiddle the midweek meeting a bit, refined understandings of prophecies in Ezekiel lol. Zzzzzz....
Hilarious. The titanic is sinking but they're tweaking music and menu options in the dining hall.
Did they once mention anything about budgets and finances. That's what any ordinary AGM is supposed to mainly be about.

Will Gilead Go Away?
by freemindfade injust a total speculative thought i had.
with branches getting cut, special pioneers getting sacked, and bethel members going byebye, is there a need for gilead still?
(co's are probably on the block too lests be honest).. if they got rid of that i feel that would be huge.

Your relatives must be batshit crazy. They sound more like excitable members of the Heavens Gate Hale Bopp comet doomsday cult. -

I Wonder How Many Hater Of The Governing Body Exist At Bethel?
by Brokeback Watchtower inwith all that is becoming public now about the mismanagement of the watchtower corp by the governing body, the list of hater must be growing and this posses a risk i think of the gb's getting injured right there in their at headquarter over all the betrayal and harm they have inflicted to keep things quite(df'n those who know ttatt) to hide their badness and lies.. 1600 lay offs and putting legal in a jam, buying several chemical dumps for real estate and much much more i think spells serious trouble right there at head quarter that might erupt at any moment.. i know if i was a bethelite and had signed my life away to these corporate bastards and all this was starting to open my eyes i would be having serious thoughts about doing a few of those assholes in since my access to them would be in reach..

Some will interpret all these developments as a sign that the organization is shrinking and that Jehovah has withdrawn his holy spirit. A coup or large splinter group could be in the making. -

All It Takes Is ONE!
by John Aquila inive been reading all these posts about bethelites and special pioneers being kicked out in the street and being forced to get a job to provide for themselves..
and im trying to put myself in their situation and feel the emotions that must be going through their mind.
what if my wife and i both dropped out of school to pioneer and got married at 18. and what if we were very faithful in listening to everything the organization says.
