"I'm going to donate blood today."
Now,, that's something you would hear most people say with very well minded intentions. All the time.
But hearing that from a JW would be out there like Pluto. Gone.
a slightly tongue in cheek, but also serious roundup of jw speak and why trying to reason with them is like trying to chip through concrete with a plastic spoon.. how many can you think of??.
elder: 'yes.
i read through the material you asked me to at your judicial meeting - you're right we're both in a cult!

with what is arguably the biggest change to jw life in recent decades (the scrapping of publishers counting hours) what does this lead to?.
in my mind these are the results;.
1) a massive decrease in 'preaching hours'.
....or anyone to do the microphones or anything at this rate.

A game of cat and mouse.

Anytime they come hounding you with 2 or more,,be extremely careful what you say.

Suggested a few posts back about "apathy".
It has been commented several times over the years and YES,, agreed upon that ""apathy" is what is working against the most.
Apathy is whats doing a number on the Borg.
prompted by a mention in a different thread.. cracks in the sidewalk, a pinch of salt over the shoulder, black cats🐈⬛; do jws have such superstitious beliefs.
are they allowed to?
would they be counselled if the elders became aware?.
The """everything is demonized"""
It just affirms their "us vs them" mindset.
