It puts the WT theology of 607 BCE,,,to bed.
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?.

if you once were fully pimi and truly believed jw doctrine to the core like i once did, when you come to the reality that it is not the truth at all it can be extremely devastating.. i think only other ex jws could ever understand.
i wasted my entire life i thought the real life was yet to come to wasted the best years knocking on doors.
now i’m so angry.. i can understand why so many top themselves when they realise it was all lies..
After realizing that you're up in years and have allotted decades into a cause. When you realize that its NOT the ""truth"" per se .. ..
They keep going because,, I chalk it up to the ""sunk cost fallacy".
as the title says i'm having a total hip replacement on monday.
the pain has grown over the years and now i'm using a cane to walk.
after steroid injections and physical therapy, it was decided that a total hip replacement is appropriate.
Great Teacher,,best of luck to you.
And a speedy recovery.
You will be feeling better in no time!!!
Good luck.
i had a day off today and needed to get some errands done in my local town.
2 carts have allocated here but i never ever see anyone out, even on very nice days.
70% of the congregation don’t work.
Just simply avoid any elder questions whatsoever.
The reason why the elders come in 2's is,,,to hear you say something. Then they can hear you talk about something & then they can report back to your local elders and say , ''yes so and so admitted this and said that''
From there they can initiate any disciplinary action or J.C.s as they see fit.
The '2 witness rule'.

Passive quiet resistance. Yes.
Sometimes the most powerful.
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?

They need to strip you of your individuality.
And your life.
The only thing of what ""you"' are all about.
You only get one "you"'.
You have to serve a heartless $$billionn corporation. That sucks your soul away. Gone.

The "Croatian peasant is missing"" LoL. 🤣
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.
