If 1914 gets tossed

by Leathercrop in

it feels like the change in reporting of hours becomes a fundamentally bigger deal every day.

the weight and importance placed on quantity was enormous, and now it's just gone.

even tho most witnesses really didn't keep "accurate" records so to speak hehehe.... this could very well be a precursor to even bigger doctrinal changes, like 1914. damn, would would happen then?.

I dont know if any of you watch Jehovah 4life(formerly known as jane doe youtube channel)

She illustrates the point the more you mention something key words they stick in your head.

Whats all the borg rails into its members heads?

Governing body, faithful slave, loyalty and Armageddon,,etc...

The less you say it has a reverse trend,,,it slips away.

The borg just cant toss 1914,,,,ramifications are massive.

Theyll just say it less and less...and less..

And keeping the the governing body praise,, faithful slave,,loyalty bit..

The ''dreaded'' birthday cake

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

the watchtower—study edition | september 2023. study article 39. let mildness be your strength.

11 if a workmate asks, for example, why we do not celebrate birthdays, consider: could he be wondering whether we are allowed to have a good time?

or might he feel that our position will dampen the company’s team spirit?

Beth Sarim

Banning of Holidays and Birthdays is just a way to isolate their members.

To keep the members focus on the Borg,,and keep away from themselves and families.

Rutherford adopted this,,the Borg accepted it and has enforced it ever since. Because its working for them.

1914 tossed?

As we see fallacy of the 607BCE coming to fruition that it is a lie,,,1914 wil probably not be tossed,,,but somehow forgotten about.

It will fall by the wayside.

I just cant see it being dropped in one fell swoop. It will cause too much of a stir.

It will die slowly.

How Do Jehovah's Witnesses View Education?

by southyukon in

i have a question about this article.. https://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/jw-education-school/.

higher education can lead to moral and spiritual dangers.

a bible proverb says: "the shrewd one sees the danger and conceals himself.

Beth Sarim

The JWs condemn higher education all the time.

But then they always turn around & reap the benefits of those who have it.

Why is that?

They reap the benefits,,but deny such education of their members(victims).

The birthday & holiday ban is an isolation tactic

Which the borg has adopted over the decades to enforce its members isolation techniques from "normal citizens".

Manipulating members and keeping them in the cult mentality.

To put the cult in place of family.

And,,,of notable mention to make more money $$$ flow in to the contribution boxes,,instead of family wholesome things like presents, Xmas gifts & good food.

The Borg has just picked and picked what they deem to be pagan,,this goes back to Rutherford era which has been passed down over generations.

Actually,,,everything you do, day to day has pagan origins.

The Borg assigns flimsy,unbiblical, biased arguments against holidays, birthdays and such.
