It looks like WT is going to continue making those cheap little "two months to a tiny page" calendars. Cheap and tiny, yet still a waste of paper... designed for people who are wasting their lives.

2016 Calendar: Give us more money!
by wifibandit injust got a peak at the 2016 calendar and i cannot tell you how much it bothered me.
it's all about constructing new kh and assembly halls, which is completely ironic given that the construction stopped almost worldwide.obviously this is proof that the borg is shifting from a magazine publisher to a real estate conglomerate, no wonder they're getting rid of 12 issues of magazines all together.. now, while the pdf of this is not up on the site yet, i will post confirmation as soon as it becomes available.
weather that is by legitimate means or other wise..

Witnesses - Ever Wondered Why You're So Tired After Assemblies/Meetings?
by The Searcher inrecently shared this with me.. they compared the tiredness they felt after attending an assembly and meetings, and noted how much worse it was than actually working and studying hard for hours for their secular employment!
why were they so exhausted after an assembly/meeting?
no, it wasn't satan.

Yet after the assembly that was so exhausting, as soon as I changed clothes and got a breath of fresh air, I was recharged and ready to go. An almost miraculous transformation as I now had plenty of energy to go out and eat, go shopping, go dancing, anything else! -

These guys just freak me out!
by John Aquila inok, i didnt think anything about it.
but last night some friends from across the city called me up and said that the co was visiting their hall and in his talk he said that the society is getting geared up for a massive kingdom hall and assembly hall construction project worldwide next year.
they told the publishers; "get ready".

The WT world is always full of rumors and legends. The meetings and publications are so boring that dubs are always wanting to find something exciting to talk about. And the COs are a source of many legends because they are frantically trying to find something to make their visits "exciting" for the "friends". The material prepared for the COs to present is too boring for them to get any green handshakes, so they have to create excitement with ever-changing make-believe stories. Rumors like this are further confirmation that the monthly broadcasts aren't filling that gap for interesting material for the dubs to get excited about. The sheeple still want more interesting "insider" information that the WT website isn't providing.
the Society is getting geared up for a massive Kingdom Hall and assembly hall construction project worldwide next year. They told the publishers; "GET READY"
Oh boy, how exciting! Get ready because something is going to happen... NEXT YEAR!?!?!?
This rumor is a knife in the heart of the earlier stories that construction was winding down so that the final push was being made in preaching before the great tribulation. That gives the "armageddon can" a big kick down the road of a few years! Why would they begin this big building campaign just in time for the government to seize all those properties and defile them?

THE WATCHTOWER (STUDY EDITION) JANUARY 2016
by wifibandit inpdf .
this issue contains the study articles for february 29 to april 3, 2016.. what about the number of those partaking at the memorial?12, 13. why should we not worry about the number of those who eat the bread and drink the wine at the memorial?12 in recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of those partaking at the memorial of christs death.
that trend contrasts with the decrease in the number of partakers that we saw for many decades.

There's only one way for WT to reduce the number of anointed partakers:

i need some advice
by SpunkedTeen inyesterday i finally confronted my mom with my research about the wtbts being registered with the un as a ngo for ten years.she didn't get angry at all but she says she doesn't want to doubt the organization, i asked her if she realizes that if this is true what it means and she replied by saying she believes she has found the truth and that satan wants me to turn away from the organization.she also said that apostates make these very clever looking articles to lure us away.i told her that i avoided all apostate websites(which i did) and went straight to the un which confirmed it.i asked her to do her own research on the matter but she refuses to saying she is not going to live her life having doubts about the borg.
i don't think i can wake her up ,especially if she doesn't even want to think that the organization is not "god's earthly organization".. i was thinking that now that she knows about my doubts i can disassociate myself but as i only turned 18 this week and have nowhere to go if she kicks me out the house(my entire family are j-dubs) i don't know what to do to move forward from this point .do any of you have any advice for me ?
thanks in advance..

Take your time and make your plans.
i can disassociate myself but as i only turned 18 this week and have nowhere to go if she kicks me out the house(my entire family are j-dubs) i don't know what to do to move forward from this point.
Mom has told you how she feels, and she's not looking to run for the WT exit. Instead of spending more energy in that direction, you need to make your own plans besides disassociation and getting kicked out of the house.
What do you want for yourself in 5, 10, 25 years? Education? Career? Family? There is no armageddon coming and your WT indoctrinated family isn't going to make wise plans for your future when you turn 50.

My Mother Died Two Weeks Ago
by Perry innone of my jehovah's witness relatives called to tell me or my family.
just found out this morning.

Billy the Ex-Bethelite
Wow Perry, Sorry to hear about the loss of your mother and the way your JW relatives treated you and your family.
JWs somehow manage to find a low... and then keep digging deeper to reach lower levels of cult-induced craziness.

THIS IS JUST CLASSIC
by Sabin in2016 years text.. hebrews 13:1, let your brotherly love continue.. wtf!
your thought please.

Billy the Ex-Bethelite
Evidently, if this text hadn't been selected, the brotherly love in the borganization would not have continued next year.
Unfortunately, this text doesn't mention a need to let sisterly love continue. Therefore it is logical to conclude that 2016 is going to be a bad year for the JW sisterhood.

CO just confirmed worldwide construction halt and possible JW.ORG news of it
by LevelThePlayingField injust had the co visit tonight.
i asked him if he had heard about the worldwide halt of construction besides warwick and to my surprise he said he heard the same thing.
then he went on and add that also some branches are closing and some bethelites going into pioneering but, "all because of the preaching work now.

Billy the Ex-Bethelite
She said, "well, yes, the main focus should be the preaching work."
Good, then there's no reason to ever donate another cent to Watchtower Corp!

I hope you or others can find him the help he needs. Being an exJW has been the best part of my often depressing life. I hope he lives to enjoy that part of his life for a long, long time, too.
