  i am starting a new topic since this blog entry is about something different.. i have posted before about my recent split with the jws.

  no exit comes out of nowhere and there were seeds planted long before this.

  i have never enjoyed field service.

  ''Well, now all those pioneers have reached retirement age. Hopefully, they can pay their bills. If not, they can go ask the religion for money.. As for me, I retired when the time was right and am ever-grateful I followed my gut'''

  The Borg will somehow gaslight the pioneers for getting old and not relying on jehovah(Borg) enough if the ''poor pioneers'' cannot somehow pay their own bills.

  I'm just more than glad there's JW victims out there which can follow their own gut feeling and work full time to support themselves,,,earn a decent living until they can retire comfortably. And then not being gaslighted to believe they are the problem and also feeling stupid in the end for ''reading too much'' in to things.

  Still no U turn on vax mandates for all schools

  you still have to be fully vaccinated to attend any theocratic schools.

  elders and ministerial servants have their kingdom ministry school every year, the cobe of every congregation has to check that everyone is fully vaccinated.

  after the school everyone will ask any bothers who were not there why not?

  Freeorange;

  Hello and a warm welcome to the forum.

  Congrats for getting out of the Borg. Hope your family ''wakes'' just like you did.

  On a side note.. Perhaps you should read Crisis of Conscience by Raymond Franz. You realize the Borg is rotten at the top and filthy all the way through.

  elder friend of mine texted me asking what my rc attendance was 2 weeks ago (family and i streamed it since wife is not well).

  he told me that his rc in the jersey city assembly hall last weekend was low.

  co told them that around 2600 were the total from 16+ congs that were assigned.

  "You seldom can connect with friends"

  It could very well be to make it more cumbersome and inconvenient to intermingle and associate with ''friends''.

  The same way the ''supplied lunches'' went by the wayside. You have to bring your own lunch. The Borg realizing this was more inconvenient and cumbersome having to bring one's own lunch.

  An analysis of the recent 153rd Gilead Graduation talk by Jesse Morris (member of the US Branch Committee and son of Anthony Morris III)

  article from the last days newsletter (june 5-11, 2023).

  it has been said that by reading the watchtower and awake!

  magazines, along with other publications of jehovah’s witnesses, a person will receive, over a period of years, a considerable and broad education.. …would you like to grow in knowledge, obtaining an education of even much greater value than can be received in any college?

  The WT Borg corporation boasted about its Watchtower and Awake magazines

  Even publicizing the number of printings per month in numerous languages simultaneously.

  Then to only be reduced to a couple of printings per Watchtower and Awake each year. Down from 2-30 page editions of each for every month of the year

  The WT printing era is clearly dead

  Oops,,,I did it "weasel word""😏

  You just have to love how those releasing those books and directing these ''secret instructions"",,,must be scratching their heads in disbelief and panic.

  As to how fast these secret things get leaked so fast it makes someone's head spin.

  "I had a quick look at google images and it looks like there are many depictions of the harlot riding the beast. I doubt that the watchtower's depiction was original."

  They probably got caught plagiarizing and got called-out on the carpet for it.

  ""Many elderly jw's don't attend anymore. The oldtimers see no reason.

  The conventions have the seize of a circuit now with no old friends to find.

  So what is better then stream in the comfort of the living room.""

  You can also say why bother going and wasting hundreds if not close to a thousand dollars for nothing. Wasting money on gas, hotels, meals,,,oh and donating.

  Better off,,,sleeping-in 3 days, making your own breakfast. Then enjoying your own home or yard then going shopping or to the park for a walk.

  It's the same thing you hear all the time gaslighting and governing body this, governing body that,, governing body this, governing body that. You won't miss much.

  Yes.

  I see an eventual '3-day Circus a$$embly' model to replace the Regional(district CONvention) in the near future.
