Gorby got a box with public talk recordings in the early 90's from a special pioneer. Listened them, made notes of it and used it for my own public talks.
Got so many compliments.

i'm watching john cedars rebuttal of the annual meeting, and right at the start stephen lett starts going on and on about spiritual food, how nutritious it is, how filling it is, it comes across as weird but it doesn't help admittedly that the guy looks like bozo the clown forgot his act.
but the thought just came to me as i'm eating dinner.. not everybody gets dinner.
not everybody gets three meals a day.
Lett's humor is that of a TV host and not that of a religion leader.

i've been having a conversation with a young jw on twitter and have, once again, come up against beliefs that do not match up with official watchtower doctrine.
if you like you can read the full thread here (you'll need to click on some comments to open it all up).. anyway the upshot is that this jw, and many like her, believe that only truly wicked people will be killed at armageddon - not innocent babies and children or anyone who "didn't know better" perhaps because they didn't get a witness.
it's as though they cannot accept the obvious injustice of jehovah's morality.. this jw teenager believes that all these non-jw's who survive armageddon will get their chance to prove their loyalty during the 1000 year reign of christ - again, not a watchtower teaching.. i don't really have a question to ask, this is just an observation.
For young jw's most important is the social aspect.

as a person that has recently come to terms with the reality that the truth is not really the truth .
does anyone else remember the feeling when they realized things were just not true.
it’s wierd all the years i spent preaching i never really considered what it must have felt like to have two people at your door trying to convince you that your religion of birth was a lie.
Yes, of was very scary time.

earlier i posted about the call from close family about that the end is expected in very short time.. today i had the opportunity to speak in person.. this is what is told to me:.
- the gb speaks to us personality through broadcasting;.
- the annual meeting was a very clear message from the gb;.
@ John.prestor absurd, but it happens. The average JW have different perceptions instead of your rational view.
They are in a cloud of mist, due to Broadcasting and their internal social blablabla.

Earlier I posted about the call from close family about that the end is expected in very short time.

This is what is told to me:
- The GB speaks to us personality through Broadcasting;
- The annual meeting was a very clear message from the GB;
- The end is very near, because prophecies are fulfilled at this moment: the King of the north and her allies are attacking Gods people;
- The Brexit is a prophecie fulfilled, England and the US working together again;
- The brothers warning us we have to prepare now for the end, because this is the time.
I watched my family member and he beliefs it sincere. No doubt at all it will happen now.
So the big disapointment is again approaching soon.
Do you recognize these current attitude with others?

well my son (he's pimi) came to me the other day and asked if i could make a bookcase with hidden spaces built into it.
i asked him what for?
he said that they were encouraged to start thinking of and preparing for persecution and hide literature.
Like I mentioned earlier there is a lot of expetation in jw.org at the moment.
They think the big moment is there.

we got a call from close jw family, that it is now time to visit the kingdom hall again because armagedon is a question of a few months.
now it will happen in a very close time, the brothers say so, was the message.. i had earlier the feeling that jw's think the time has arrived because what they say and what they do, work like mad men with their chart every weekend.. so the expetations are high.. gorby's wife replied "how do you know, you should not know day and hour".
stay alert was the reaction.. so sad and so stupid.. g. .
What we see is that a part of our jw family are more and more digging into the frontlines. Low educated, believing fully what broadcasting propaganda is spreading over them. The Russia behaviour, the press about abuse, Trump politics, they realy think the end is comming at any moment. "We smell Armageddon".
Resonsible are the 8 old crazy broadcasting hosts aka GB.

thinking is an active process.. evasion is avoiding that action of active thinking which would create a positive difference.
.realizing the truth about the truth.. thinking is the virtue* man prizes most.
all other virtues proceed from thinking.. evasion is the willful suspension of one's consciousness.
Because the average jw is speaking stupidity, alternative truths, half truths and behave like parrots, Gorby can't stand a gathering with jw's anymore without serious health problems.
So I avoid as much possible.
