  i'm not sure if anyone posted these or not, or even if these are new.

  i just saw them for the first time on the jw.org site.

  it looks like they are slowly building up their online material.

  I just have a really difficult time figuring out how a bunch of musty, old suits

  in Brooklyn think they have ANY advice to give to anyone with children, marital

  problems or debt. It's easy to dole out advice when you're nice and cushy in

  your Brooklyn palace with everything provided to you.

  My question would be, so who decides what "extreme" abuse is?

  Leaving it vague, of course, putting the guilt trip back on the woman who may think,

  well, it's not bad enough!!

  Elders finally took me to the back room...

  by OneDayillBeFree in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  after several months of leaving the meetings as soon as they ended or only staying for "the first meeting" then leaving the "second part", the elders finally cornered me at last night's meeting.. they said they were concerned about me and that being that i am a young brother in a recently divided congregation they saw so much potential in me to help out the congregation and become a ms.. i told them i was thankful for their thinking of me to help the congregation but that at the moment i could not due to my job.

  then the began asking personal questions that got on my nerves.. they asked where i worked and how much i made.

  they asked if i was going to college and what i was studying and for how long.

  What used to annoy me the most about commenting was the parents that instructed

  their toddler to answer usually a one or two-word phrase.

  I remember when I was about 5 and my mother tried to make me answer. I was instructed

  to say yes, but when I got the mic, I said no. That seemed to fix things.

  April 15, 2013 Watchtower - p. 22-26: Organization-Obsessed Much???

  by sd-7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  there's a study article "make sure of the more important things", and in no uncertain terms the article makes clear that "jehovah's organization" is the most important thing.

  the term "organization" or "jehovah's organization" is used a whopping 24 times in the article, including a subheading titled: "follow the example of jehovah's organization".

  i thought organizations were entities, but that sort of subheading makes it seem like the organization is one giant person whose example we can follow.

  Has anyone really looked at this photograph carefully? I transferred it to photoshop to

  get a better look...trying to figure out what's behind the old geezers and what that

  circle thing is to the left? It's kind of creepy when you zoom in. I'll try and post

  it here....
