Reddit thread - ‘Organization Finally Suggesting to Plan for Retirement’

by LongHairGal in

this information is supposed to be in the upcoming march wt.

(i don’t go on jw dot org).

it would sound like they are hinting at a change in thinking.. in my opinion, any such change would be yet another slap in the face to faithful pimis along with those other recent changes.. there are so many heartfelt responses on that thread and a lot of justified anger.. don’t know what to say except that i’m so glad i never listened to the religion all those years ago.

Is there going to be an 'apology'.

Um. No.

Remember. "No apology" is needed either.

Never expect.,,any such thing.

You know.

It would be very interesting to be a fly on the wall. Whether it be in the kitchens,, dining rooms or living rooms. Of some of the homes of old school,, die hard,, hardcore JWs.

Hearing conversations of all the changes over the last dozen years or so.

No more door 2 door. Just ticking a box.

Zoom meetings.

Dramatic reduction of printed material.

JW broadcasting. All those strange dudes & those facial contortions.

I dont know,, I cant think of them all right now...

does anyone of you have the outlines of the latest kingdom ministry school 2022-2023 in pdf, if it possible with videos?

thanks in advance.

lowrence .

Beth Sarim

Yes.

The door 2 door work is what really distinguished JWs.

Thats all but gone.

Hours quotas,,, gone. Just check a box.

Just check a box,,,, tell people you've at least talked to someone. Elders wont hassle you.

There's no reason to bother anyone,,, or bother going out & ruining your weekend.

It would be ironic.

It would be ironic,,,beyond ironic. If the Borgs demise was a byproduct of its own hardcore,,,controversial doctrines

If they would lighten up on such damaging policies. People questioning & second guessing......

Bring on tithing & bleed the $heeples more & more.

Go more mainstream. Causing a massive tide of doubters. Every notion of being "Gods exclusive" organization crumbling.

They would paint themselves into a corner further & further.

Why you need Christmas to understand Easter/Memorial

by Anony Mous in

so i went to a christmas evening candlelight service tonight and it hit me.

i was primarily doing christmas since leaving the jw for the children.

lots of people do it for family without really thinking of the relevance.

Beth Sarim

In JWs Jesus is allllways downplayed. Or downgraded.

Maybe thats part of why the Borg abolishes Christmas.

The Borg cannot exist without,,, charity status.

Regards to the printing era,, it is dead. All but gone. The days of the preinternet heydey is finished. Its over.

It is,,,, about time,,,, the CRA pays attention to all of these abusive coercive groups like the Borg. The Borg relies on this charitable exemption for its own existence. But hardly does anything,,,, if anything charitable at all. Giving clothing to homeless. Feeding homeless. Shelters for homeless. You're right. Never.

No. They rely on government subsidies. Charitable status. But their actions hardly reflect what they receive.

"Yahweh" pronunciation is more correct (w60 8/1 pp. 453-455)

by psyco in

.

https://wol.jw.borg/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1960561 (substitute .borg with .org)furthermore, today in every jw publication the tetragrammaton is rendered as yhwh which is more preserved by yahweh than by jehovah..

Beth Sarim

Bang on. Athanuis.

That nails it.

Instead the Borg says things like : "" at times we might have said this or that or done things like...""

But,,, what you'll never hear is "" we were wrong about certain things,, we own up & fix our mistakes"""
