i'd like to start off by saying that i will be very vague in everything i say.
i am fairly "high up" in jw land and have to be somewhat careful how i word and say stuff.
sorry in advance if any specific details are left out.
Nothing new here really that hasn't already been surmised or confirmed on this forum already. It's like a concise summary of most of the more important/topical stuff discussed on this forum recently.
Are you talking from the perspective of being a current bethelite or a CO or what?
How high up are you really, thedepressedsoul?
despite claims to the contrary, there's no guarantee the watchtower will be around in a few decades time.
and it seems to me there's ever mounting evidence that the opposite may well be true.
but it's not just that recruitment is down and their defectors are up.
speaking for my self, no way in hell.. this question to see if you really have been deprogramed,.
do you 100% believe it is not the truth.. a fourth of the world hit by a nuclear attack..
Quite the opposite. If a 'loving heavenly father' who 'so loved the world' allowed a nuclear holocaust to occur, it would only prove one thing: that he doesn't exist!
In fact, this has effectively already happened with the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima. If God wouldn't intervene to stop that (and countless other genocidal events in history) then why the f*ck do Christians believe he will ever intervene for anything?
The evidence is unmistakable. The Biblical God simply doesn't exist. And if we are the progeny of something higher than ourselves, whether alien or whatever, it clearly has about as much interest in us as we do in a termite nest in the Sahara.
so, here's some news from my country.
there was this 20 year old jw girl who was a rookie driver.
she was in the car with her parents and for some reason decided to cross a railroad right before a train was coming.
this is in germany.. is this something new?
has anybody else heard this that somebody wanting to be an unbaptised publisher needs to fill-out a form from the borg.. i have not seen the form..
it had a football printed on it!
do they sell more because of it?
do they think i need a reminder of the season (its been a rough season for football in seattle)?.
She found it 'profound' to buy and eat a candy bar autonomously as if it's some kind of adult experience .
You must be either 8 years old or Amish.
isaiah 44:25-26, i am frustrating the signs of the empty talkers, and i am the one who makes diviners act like fools; the one confounding the wise men and turning their knowledge into foolishness; the one making the word of his servant come true and completely fulfilling the predictions of his messengers.
the record shows your words and many predictions did not come true.
again, the key word in isaiah 44:25-26 is "predictions" and the apostles never made any predictions ever.
Excellent if you believe in the Bible. But for the more enlightened among us.....every miracle or purported divine proclamation in the OT is a lie, pure pious fraud.
Oh sure, I really truly believe that the silly old fables and scary stories of ancient Jewish priests and scribes was real historical truth and divine messages. Just like I still believe Santa is real.

Started a thread about eating a candy bar lol (rolls eyes).
i've reached the point where i feel legitimate comment needs to be backed by knowledge of the source.. i'll post occasional updates on how i'm doing and what i'm learning .
