Why dont they just use an air plane as a plant holder?
Or a tank as a mobile home?
perhaps we could post the pictures the wt have presented in their literature that depict their version of paradise here for comment/discussion:.
from: spirits of the dead—can they help you or harm you?
do they really exist?.

i grew up a jw but my parents were not regularly attending services at a kh.
they used to, and were thoroughly indoctrinated though.
as is the jws habit of visiting non-attenders, 2 sisters came to my mom and dad's door one day to inquire of our well-being.
We all learn to keep our mouths shut as JWs
We all weighed our own words and STFU to avoid ramifications from the elders.
As I was saying earlier on somewhere else on this forum this morning ""its a who doesn't know,, they dont care"". Whatever you want to try and do without the elders know,,,then do it.
You realize its just a bunch of dudes running the show.
If you dont open your mouth and say anything it's ""cricket, crickets....."
have some time thinking about my recent and less recent personal history because of the summer holiday.. the 90's crossed my mind.
the years i became pimo.
a friend, a room mate during the 1993 moscow international convention, went to university.
If you did hit the big lotto,,, you'd be rich & wouldn't matter.
Worst case scenario get df'd & make your way back to the Borg in 6 mos to a year or so,,,if you want to.
The Borg would likely want you back because you're loaded $$$$$

A lot of JWS have to be strategic in order to do a few minor '''sins"" like leaving no evidence,,,throwing away lotto tix after playing.
Hiding R rated moviies and not talking about going to clubs and what not....you know ""say little say well"" on a who knows who cares basis. 🙂

if the elders decide that they are guilty, they’ll then decide if the person is sorry.
Nothing like the 2 witnesses rule..
Something they exploit to catch you in a trivial sin.
And something they exploit to protect pedophiles.
Go figure

Blondie,,great points!!!
my family had several elders, ministerial servants, auxillary pioneers etc, so it certainly wasn't one of those 'barely in' families.
but in certain small ways, i think mine were slightly less hard line than some other families i've heard stories about over the years.
one example was the 'fall dinner'.

JWs vs Jonestown.
The witnesses I do believe are just a hop,skip and a jump from a Jonestown event.
I do believe that the JWs mindset is there. They will do what it takes to get to the new world.
Thats,, where it's dangerous!!!

The witnesses would have a turkey and all the fixings about a week after new year.

Usually in Dubbiland,,, if 2 witnesses are privvy to the event thats all the eldubs need to proceed with discipline.
You know,,,,,that two witnesses rule. How they use it to evade reporting stuff or 2 or more they can use it to punish you.
