jehovah’s witnesses boast that theirs is a “spirit-directed organization”.. see w88 3/1 pp.
10-17 (my life in jehovah’s spirit-directed organization).
they believe that their deceased founder, charles taze russell (who faced legal action by his wife for inappropriate behavior in his maids bedroom), is directing the modern-day work of jehovah’s witnesses.. after the founder, c t russell died, it was stated that he was still directing the work from heaven.. "though pastor russell has passed beyond the veil, he is still managing every feature of the harvest work.
February 2017 Watchtower. The governing body......
They admit that they are neither inspired nor infallible & that they can err in doctrinal matters.
And,,they admit that they can screw things up going back in their literature to the 1870s.
Nothing is as plain as day,,,, to who or what is leading the governing body
yesterday was remembrance day/veterans days in canada.
we had a couple younger half wits in the cong in field service yesterday.
both are trying to climb the ladder with the entire elder body ready to die in the next 10 years.. i just of thought it was a dick move to go door to door about the merits of fighting for freedom or not fighting on such a sacred day.
Riley,,, even when I was a full blown PIMO that was one thing I never ever could stoop so low to do.
That I thought would be so very disrespectful.!!
how do jws major in minors?.
by the way, jws aren't the only ones.. .
This is where cognitive dissonance comes into play.
Getting 'em thinking about things. Too much. Confuses them.
Easier to manipulate. Malleable minds. Vulnerable.
susanne eigenheer is an ex-jw and suffered religious abuse in eric wilson's group.
her personal statement and experiences within the beroean pickets study groups was one of betrayal where she was taken advantage of financially.
in one text conversation, wendy wiens disfellowshiped susanne and demanded an apology from her.
Yeah his earlier content was rocking.
His content over the last months/ year had gone to the dogs.
lets see if that causes a problem.
i've been inactive for a very long time now (like 10+ years), so, i don't expect to hear anything from it, but my parents are worried i'll get df.
lets see what happens.
It boozerford who implemented the ban on holidays.
And for the Borg it works for them. All those people they can keep their stronghold on. All those sheeples who dont go out and buy gifts,, decorations.
Birthdays same thing. And the rest of the holidays.
lets see if that causes a problem.

LHG;
The witnesses use the flimsy explanation that the holidays are of 'pagan origin'.
Bull shit.
Actually everything you do is of this " pagan origin'
I do think also that the ban on birthdays, Xmas whatever is to isolate its members,,, to make them feel this 'unique way" . And to provide a barrier between themselves non- witnesses & non- witness family and relatives..

Waking - up from a high control group is traumatic & stressful enough with all the shenanigans induced by the cult in the form of ""discipline" and their shunning policies.
Then you throw on top of that dramas between people. Shouting,, bickering,, scrapping.
People who leave such abusive,, narcissistic groups tend to carry those things right out the door with them.

Miserable people?
I think some people like JWs just like being miserable or making ife miserable for others.
The Borg,,,,,, has it programmed into hate fun & good times. I believe that is why Rutherford pulled holidays and birthdays. He saw people having fun. And he hated it and it tricked down to this day.

Good luck Stephane!! All the best.

wife was not available so they asked me to tell her about a special talk on marriage next week.
any outlines available for this ‘special talk’ or could this potentially be a local issue?.
