  Life in a spiritual (UN)-paradise

  by Reasonfirst in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a long, long time ago, when i was young, i became a 'special' pioneer.

  it meant that i had to spend 150 hours a month, and i received a small allowance.

  i was then assigned to a small country congregation, in western nsw (australia).

  Place the magazines of course the co says.

  Use them to light your fireplace instead. The ink in them would really help getting it lit.

  The Saddest Thing About Tony Morris's Removal

  by NotFormer in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i've mentioned before how i've wondered how tony morris must have felt when he was sacked.

  yes, i know he's a rehensible human being who got served a healthy dose of karma, or, if you like, divine judgement.

  to go from having all there is to have within the world he lived in, to where he is now; that's a long fall.

  We are talking about a mult billions $$$ tax free corporation here.

  Its always had the methods and avenues to reinvent itself.

  Moving forward,, I expect similar strategies of the borg to carry on its survival.

  Its been successful at doing this over,,,I cant see the borg disappearing.

  The tower falls?

  Heres the beyond ironic thing

  Over the decades the borg has smugly perpetuated the fall of false religion,,fall of false religion!!!

  What if the borg fell before all the religions that the Borg has claimed as 'false' through the decades?

  The 'Tower has no Face

  by NotFormer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  just thinking about how the wt has evolved over the century of its existence.

  before the gb tricked knorr into making them the ones responsible for everything, the president at the time was very much the face of the society.

  after franz, it all became a bit nebulous as to who was in charge.. is the current situation more advantageous to the wt or less?.

  The old school dubs will remain. Sunk cost fallacy.

  And those walking in the limelight. Cant forget those.

  Bathwater

  by peacefulpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  many who have become disillusioned by some particular recent wt offence, separate from the church physically but retain the indoctrination the wt installed in their brains.

  a familiar trope is often used,.

  "don't throw the baby out with the bathwater!".

  by Leathercrop in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  even tho i've been expelled about 4 years now, i truly checked out around 2015. changes in the org i think we're just starting to get going.

  i remember the kingdom songs suddenly getting the taylor swift treatment aka pop music treatment.

  meetings were getting axed or meshed together or something.

  FDS 1919 Declaration Date

  by NotFormer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  did rutherford have any "prophetic" justification for 1919 as the date that jesus declared him (ahem, the wt organisation) the fds?

  such as some calculation attached to 1914?

  that in 1919, jesus would come looking for his true organisation?.

  The ''dreaded'' birthday cake

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  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?

  Elderberry;

  That says a lot.

  It really sounds like he doesn't believe Jah is watching what he does either.
