interview with joel the unwitness:.
http://youtu.be/bpwylueul44.
an outstanding experience of unwitnessing occurs when a former jw happens to find himself at a mcdonalds around 11am on a saturday.... does pandemonium ensue?
Just an amazing video through and through. It sure makes you stop and think that perhaps some in that car group may have there suspicions stirred-up and when they get home or even on their smartphones they will google what this young man said.
Another amazing thing is that older man he was talking to, maybe he was an elder, is that he is awake!! There are many more of the conscious class that are awake than we perceive. awesome !
ok, so didnt jesus supposedly say "the end will come when you least expect it"?
(or words to that effect...).
so, with so many witnesses running around in an excited way talking about "100 years since the kingdom...etc" and "it may be our last chance to pioneer etc"..."may be the last international conventions".....doesnt this mean then that the end can not come now??!!.
yes, they could very well implement inactivity a cause for disassociation!
it was easy to figure people out.
as long as you got out in service and put money in the money box people will pretend to be your "friend".. but let's be honest is most of business associates.
they are your friends as long as you are active doing the watchtower bidding.. and then let's talk about the lack of hot women.
I've experienced two things;
1) you really have to be in the "in" crowd whether in the BORG or just in society in general to get a wife/gf, or just popular
2) secondly, inspite of the more sisters/girls in the BORG over the young men, it was pointed out to me many, many years ago that the sisters/girls actually do the choosing to create the opportunity for the brother/man to ask for relationship or marriage.
so its now all clear!.
the reason why that damned wt article several months back said the quote:.
"we may be asked to do something by jehovahs organization, and we should be ready to obey even if it doesnt seem reasonable from a human standpoint or not".
someone mentioned on here earlier about the CO presenting a hypothetical situation about everyone being sent to the kingdom hall for days or weeks on end....and to drop everything and not to worry about our material things. The problem with that is.....if everyone went to the KH for days, weeks on end coutless people would lose jobs/houses as a result. Then after nothing happens after days/weeks/months people will leave the KH and there would be an enormous/massive exodus.
in the last couple of years the org has gone money crazy, selling off over a billion dollars worth of property and now a new tithing program.
just wonder what every one thinks is the reason for all this now?.
I don't know, but now more than ever I have a really uneasy feeling about things. The fact that they have to destroy previous letters from the sociey, now a new tithing arrangment, liquidating assets and selling off properties, I mean what aren't they telling us. We're talking about dollar amounts which the average person can't begin to fathom, what are they hiding? Did they lose some heavy lawsuit or something, or other lawsuits?
to all bodies of elders in the united states branch territory re: branch visit in november 2014. dear brothers:.
in our letter dated february 19, 2014, to all congregations in the united states branch ter- ritory, you were informed of a special weekend program to be held on saturday, november 8, 2014, and sunday, november 9, 2014. this program is in connection with the branch visit scheduled for the united states and will be broadcast to locations throughout the branch territory.
we are pleased to inform you of some of these arrangements.. since the goal is to allow as many as possible the opportunity to benefit from this branch visit program, provision will be made to allow any kingdom hall properly equipped to receive the broadcast.
yeah, there must be a biggie coming up with new light, they are planning something, I just know it. The fact they had that Watchtower a few months back about 'doing things that wouldn't make sense from a human viepoint' or something like that, something that will send shockwaves through the community is coming down the pipe.

Pardon my ignorance, but am I missing something here, about some of branch meeting in NovemberÉ
hey all,.
as we know there have been some strange new quotes over the last few recent years...such as the classic:.
"we may be asked to do whatever, even if it doesnt appear sound from a human standpoint etc..." (words to that effect).
yikes, that statement in the Nov. watchtower about doing things irrational from a human standpoint makes one wonder what's really in store down the road, wow

I was just tipped-off in the last week that there has been a freeze on all North American kingdom hall builds and renos, I Wonder why
one thing i have learned over the years is there is a clear, distinct purpose to everything the wts does.
everything is done to accomplish a defined purpose.. did they really print millions of new bibles just to be more accurate?
after decades of toughting how much better the nwt was than any other bible?.
I agree that the new NWT has a more ominous, sinister plan in the making. I firmly believe that Tithing is on the radar, possibly also an earthshaking doctrinal change. The new NWT is just a smoke screen to make the change(s) less poignant and easy to sell the new doctrines
