Eagerly anticipating the death of billions!
by stuckinarut2 insurely someone who eagerly looks forward to the death of billions of people (including babies and children) is not emotionally healthy?.
yet, that is the key belief "happily" anticipated by witnesses.... food for thought?.

Yep. And even if it's true, I'd rather die at Armageddon than worship such a genocidal deity. -

Any time you didn't know what the h#ll to do and just let it ride?
by Esse quam videri ini was conducting the theocratic ministry school years and years and years and years ago and announced the #3 speaker up to the platform.
this of course was the sister/sister talk at the table.
up comes the publisher, sister so-and-so and her 25 year old daughter as her householder.

No wonder they're dumping the Autocratic Misery School. -

My new Religion is The Truth.
by LAWHFol inwhat exactly is religion?
why all of the pain?
you either love religion (usually the one you call home), you hate it.. or you're somewhere in between, and you say "let bygones be bygones".

Cofty is like a radar on this forum for promptly bashing anything even remotely supporting theism. It's like he scours through here 24/7 to be first off the mark for theist whack-a-mole. -

I'm a cynical, sarcastic and curmudgeonly old bastard most of the time.
by nicolaou inbut as i move into my early 50's i find i'm more and more comfortable in my thick, leathery hide.. please get it into your thick skull's that i don't insult or make snarky comments with the intent of hurting anyone's feelings.
that being said, if your precious feelings are hurt it's probably your fault for being a prissy, over sensitive drama queen who can't defend his argument.. i do actually love you all, it's just that most of the time you spineless pussies really get on my nerves!.
good god i feel better for that!

Nothing worse than a self-confessed *sshole that says I still love you even though I treat you like an *sshole. -

Preach or Tithe- Publishers choice
by All for show inmy siblings and i have been talking about the money woes.
we have thrown around the idea for them to keep the preaching/pioneer arrangement to keep some busy.
to increase cash flow they can institute a new tithing arrangement.
-

They already have a tithing arrangement of sorts, in the form of a committed regular congregation donation for a set amount. They'll never institute individual tithing. Would backfire badly. -

Jehovah's Witnesses May Have Peaked in Membership at 8 Million (+/-)
by OnTheWayOut ini don't have all the details of their new "service year" numbers, but i have read enough on jwn to state my opinion pretty strongly.. memorial attendance for 2015 was down.while they kept saying they were going to build a bunch of new kingdom halls, and everybody is still in recovery from watchtower taking all the local money away, they say pretty much that there isn't enough money to build new kingdom halls.putting gb members on the videos at jw .
org has allowed people to really put a face and personality to these guys and remove the mystery of how they should be such deeply spiritual serious men.
instead they see silly thoughts about tight pants and, really everything that comes out of lett's mouth is delivered ultra-goofy, along with the money reports.. the gb lost credibility a little more with every new light that shone down, with the strangest one being "overlapping generation.

A lot of apostates all excited here over a dip in numbers. The organisation has always bounced back before and probably will again. -

Why does Antoine Leiris' powerful tribute to his wife, killed by ISIS in the Paris attacks, bother me so much?
by nicolaou inhere is the translation of monsieur leiris' words;.
friday night, you took an exceptional life - the love of my life, the mother of my son - but you will not have my hatred.
i don't know who you are and i don't want to know, you are dead souls.

I think you're a dick Nick for criticising this poor suffering mans response. Who the f*ck are you to judge this guy who just lost the love of his life and mother of his infant girl?

Muslim militant suicide bombers have exactly the same worldview: This world isn't the real world and doesn't matter. It's only the next world and after life that matter and are the real world. -

Hypothetical Question...
by JW_Rogue ini was just thinking that the org has said lots of outrageous things over it's history and most jws just continue onward without a second thought.
so my question is what do you think would have to be said from the platform or wt to get people to get up and walk out immediately?
is it even possible?
-

The only thing that would make JWs get up and walk out en mass is if the Watchtower Society did a Worldwide Church of God post Herbert J Armstrong and reverted to some of Christendoms hated doctrines such as the Trinity.
