the theme of the jw calendar 2016 is building, building, building.
all the calendar pictures are about building wts property with cheap labor witnesses.. and then, just before the year approaches the building has halted.. it seems a short term decision.
a strange correlation again.. gorby.
On average, 1,187 additional Kingdom Halls are needed each year to keep up with current organizational growth.
The correct statement would be:
On average, 1,187 additional Kingdom Halls need to be sold each year to keep up with current organizational expenses.
from next year the borg will only be publishing the two magazines saving about $2 million dollars a month.
what do you think they will be spending the money on
my inactive relative, (female) asked in exasperation, "what makes people kill others over religion?
" i responded, "the same thing that makes jw's let children die over the blood doctrine.
religious ignorance and fervor causing the death of others without any compunction?
"What makes people kill others over religion?"
While JWs aren't the sort to grab weapons and start killing innocent people, it's what they have been trained to pray for and fantasize about.
Q) Why do JWs pray that billions of people be killed for not belonging to their WT Corp religion?
A) They've been promised to each get a pet panda. So it's the damn pandas' fault!
got this very interesting email last night and i thought i'd share it.. this is from the local rbc.. "in harmony with our new ldc form we have been asked by the branch to liquidate all current assets of used tools and materials once owned by the rbc.
you are invited to visit the equipment trailers to acquire items being liquidated by the rbc asset team, these items will be offered on a first come bases with voluntary donation.
if you see any item you like please be in position to take it with you at that time, after you return to your congregation then you will make a donation of cash or check in the congregation contribution box designated for the support of the worldwide work.
guys .
a letter was just read in out kh stating that all printing of wt and awake is ceased for the coming year and we will just place tracts on fs, countries which were cared by our branch will be cared by other countries...along with this they read the new fs form and stuff about reporting links of videos wtf..lol.
i can't tell which country perhaps that will give away a lot, any one with a similar information.
Evidently, Kali can kick Jehovah's ass.
that's what i suspect.. perhaps some of us retrained our brains to not surrender to a natural urge to believe the simplest, most drama-laden spins on facts.. examples (at least i think this is the truth!):.
the clock.
the son of muslim activists makes a device that, on purpose, looks like a bomb.
Perhaps people need to feel special, smarter than the rest. Rather than doing actual study and research (which is work) they grab hold of anything they hear that gives the appearance of having "inside knowledge" that others don't know or accept.
The beginning of indoctrination in the JW cult involves "study" of "inside knowledge" about the bible and a collection of troovz that other people don't know or accept. Rather than doing actual study and research, they get spoon fed a collection of lies that gives them a feeling of being special, smarter, and having an imaginary relationship with a Bronze Age desert god.
Certainly, there are plenty of religions, conspiracy theories, etc. that claim to be "the truth". So it's not that people deliberately choose lies. They want answers to hard questions and can't deal with there not being an easy answer. I think they want to pick "the truth" that is easy for them to stomach and gives them a feeling of being especially smart.
What causes autism? Well, we need an easy answer. Blaming it on witches would be too 18th century, so they'll go with blaming it on vaccines. Doesn't that sound a lot more scientific and 21st century? ... well, except for the fact that real scientific research proves that vaccines don't cause autism.
this study article poses questions that we should ask ourselves.
don't have time to analyze the whole thing, so will start from paragraph 8:.
8 do gods promises seem less real to me now than they once did?
Do God’s promises seem less real to me now than they once did? For instance, God has promised to destroy the present system of things.
For instance, Jehovah is a large-scale terrorist. It's not just that those promises seem less real, it's that those promises are barbaric and disgustingly evil. What kind of a promise is that? A promise to murder billions of innocent people? Sick.

I guess they haven't heard of Islam. Why does Watchtower Corp ignore the entire Muslim world as if they don't exist?
blondies highlights from the 11-15-2015 wt study (september 15, 2015)(faith).

Rather than looking at the example of Peter's faith, wouldn't it be appropriate to look at the example of the faith of Islamic extremists?
Both JWs and terrorists pray for the deaths of billions of innocent victims, focus on their supposed reward in paradise, and put faith in invisible promises instead of look at reality. While the terrorists are ready to bloody their own hands and blow themselves up, the JWs stand by litteratrash trolleys, knock on doors at inconvenient times, leave scraps of tracts that blow into the gutter, and boast a website that gets buried under an avalanche of anti-JW websites.
Shouldn't WT be going head-to-head in the Middle East and make great efforts to convert the devoutly faith-strong Muslim world to become JWs?
