This is the problem with child indoctrination.
You inherit a belief system which,,, you had no choice in. You have to defend them.. When confronted with facts proven otherwise. Then you cant defend them.

i couldn't get back to sleep last night, something my father said a few weeks ago popped into my head.. we were talking about obtaining citizenship, he doesn't need it, but was contemplating what benefits it could get him now he's a pensioner.. background : i've been disfellowhipped for 15 years, i was born in, he is an elder, very much pimi, he was also born in.. i said to him how citizenship would be difficult for him as it would require him to swear allegiance to the state?.
oh he said, thats just a crowd of people together in a big room for the swearing in event, it would be easy to just mumble or say nothing, nobody would know.. this has quietly been eating away in my mind, why did it bother me?.
last night it hit me, when i was in my first year of school, age 5, i came out of school one day with a balloon with two little pencils attached, a gift from a classmate who's birthday it was, every child got one.

i was once was told by an jw elder it was a rule not to gossip or swear as it could harm someone, but i guess the new light allows this.
it was bad enough when they were calling people worldly now i heard a jw gossiping about someone and it was mean.just another reason i would never go back.

"" If they were busy doing things that build their feelings of self worth"",,,, then this undermines the whole purpose of the self-serving Borganization.
The Borg cant have people taking care of their own needs first. Its all Jehovah( organization) first then your needs a distant 2nd.
Yes. Also the Borg needs this complex of backstabbing others & ratting on others. It keeps people under their control.

with ww3 on the horizon the watchtower is bringing out their best hits on the issue of neutrality and the latest instalment on jw.org with stephen lett has the theme " why ancient israelites were allowed to go to war but as a christian you can't " or to paraphrase for a 2024 audience " why the modern state of israel is allowed all the nuclear weapons to defend their borders but you as a western european or north american you aren't supposed to compliant against open border policies and uncontrolled illegal migration" isn't that the exact same rhetoric or is it my imagination?
so one of stephen lett's go to arguments is that christians do not take up arms because we don't live in ancient times where israelites had a mandate to occupy the holy land where as we gentile christians we don't.
Here.
Stacy's weekly upload. Exposing blatant hypocrissy. This time he bashes the borg's claim on ''tolerance''.

Riley;
Its amazing. The Borg relies and depends on democracies. It actually depends on governments for their own existence.
Then it condemns them wishing for their demise.
The Borg hates education. Then relies on professionals who have it for health,, medication & technologies ..
The Borg relies on governments for freedom of religion. Then it doesn't grant the same for its followers.

I dont know about the rest of you.....but Wally this morning on his JWThoughts channel,,, made some good points on what the JW Borg should/could become in the next year or so.
Hes just speculating,,, he admitted,,, good points nonetheless. But he was just speculating. He admits.
Should check it out.
i have read the summary carefully and watchtower must pay the lawsuit.. the court did acknowledge one branch of the motion to dismiss, however only based on a duplication in law.
