  TV.JW.ORG (September 2015) - Generation explained again

  by Designer Stubble in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  guess the overlapping generation concept is difficult for most to comprehend.

  david spane does his best to explain it again.

  the cutoff date for this generation has now moved to 1992 (was once 1935), the year that fred franz died.

  I mean, how do they possibly believe people to just believe these dates by just grasping them out of the air without people questioning them

  I don't know, but this 3rd generation is so off the wall. I wonder if many within the BORG have trouble stomaching this, if this doesn't, I don't know what will.

  A comforting thought

  i have not been on the board in a long time, and as i started reading some of the posts, i could not believe how many new faces or names have appeared on this site.

  it is certainly alot more than i could count.

  it builds more confidence in me, that the other have of my immediate family will open their eyes.

  as someone said earlier with the changes to the BORG in the last year or so, more and more are coming on here questioning things. But when you talk to active ones in the BORG you just can't see in their body language, and they don't even dare talk about something or doubt they have on their minds. Has to be a lot of ''cognitive dissonce'' (sp)

  just another way to stir-up the paranoia in the Borg, many will jump all over this getting ready for the GT.

  I just want to add that with these new ''generations'', this latest one which ''supposedly' begins in 1992, they have very easily purchased 50-60 years of extra time

  DATA DOG, they are simply buying more and more time with the ''generation extensions''. What gets me though is how in the HELL are they pulling all of these dates out of thin air like that. Are they just making this up as they go along or what?

  After this months broadcast there will be with out a doubt a great many of confused people.

  Canadian branch getting rid of their trucks and drivers

  by wannaexit in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a recent letter to the elders outlined the new arrangement for delivering literature to the congregations.

  the canadian branch will be downsizing by eliminating drivers and trucks and utilizing commercial carriers to bring the boxes of monthly literature .

  more outsourcing and more lay offs.. the funny thing about it is that they want to have the literature delivered to various private homes of the rank and file rather than have the literature delivered to the kingdom hall.

  I don't know, I just don't get it. The whole idea of cutbacks is to save money, by laying unfortunate ones off to save costs. But then to go and spend even more money to have a private firm do it, strange.

  if they did that, it would be the end of the jws because they won't have members.

  when will be the end of this religion?

  they can never get rid of disfellowshipping because it's one of their greatest control mechanisms right up there with Armaggedon!!

  I might say after sitting through this 3-day assembly, I will say that this was probably the most thought-controlling, thought-inducing, manipulative assemblies of all time. Seems like they are really tightening the leg irons.
