  A MODERN FICTION: the lie which became a GOVERNING BODY

  by TerryWalstrom in

  safe to say, if you walked up to any of the 8 million jehovah's witnesses on earth today and told them the.

  governing body was a fiction, not only would they refuse to believe you--they'd consider you their immediate enemy!.

  what if i told you jw's embrace a mental construct which is at odds with history?.

  Thanks Terry. excellent write up. It was easy to follow and exposes the constant changes in doctrine that boggle the mind.

  It's easy to see how manipulative the WT is from it's early years and growing ever more so as the organization got bigger.

  It's interesting to consider how Mt 25:45 has been abused since the days of Russell. All to establish themselves as having divine appointment to lead, and placing themselves in the role of an intermediary between God and humankind.

  What a bunch of lousy con artists they are.

  It's freaky! Similar blue backgrounds, and circular news anchor desk--and notice the two monitors in the $cientology counter, there's the image of a revolving world--It's really weird that the 700 Club and the WT all have this similar setup and decor.

  The looping motions remind me of the "Tengo la camisa negra" song by Juanes.

  "you cant talk to anyone"

  That's right, didn't he know the unclean are to be seen and ignored. How dare he show any human appreciation for a kindness done!

  Really, what a louse that elder is!

  An elder, Chief MD in Honolulu clinic goes door to door. Testimony given at JW convention

  it sounds to me like he was a jw before he became a physician.

  "kalauawa, who became a jw 31 years ago, said he had to overcome a major conflict between his religious and professional beliefs, because jws are opposed to blood transfusions.

  The human mind can rationalize just about anything when conscience and integrity are laid aside in preference of self-promotion and profit.

  Okay, it was a lot of fun, really funny stuff, until Brokeback Watchtower started with the sexually explicit trash talk. You disappoint me dude! I thought you were classier than that.

  There are quite a few that are being put out to pasture due to turning 70 or are older already. Tom Chin is one of these who has given all his life from infancy on and is now getting thrown under the bus. The guy is in better shape than I am and soldiers on like he was only 45. But rules are rules no matter who in the GB 2.0 pulls them out of their own ar$e.

  That pic made me laugh so hard it had me spit out my coffee all over the keyboard and screen!

  @Lostgeneration"

  On a serious note, I'm surprised the GB hasn't rolled out commercial products.

  Ah, but they'd have to pay taxes if they sold stuff. And we know how much they "love" representation without taxation.

  JW Hatred and Elders Apathetic Manners Drove Me Here! Why are JWs fooled in to thinking the WTS Cares?

  by Judas Maccabee in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for years i've been screwed with by some very bad people, people satan would kick out of his organization because even the devil might let up on evil just to allow someone to catch their breath.

  with the jwism's bad people move up while good people move down or leave the kingdom hall for good.

  i was talking with two elders who said "you know if you return to the kingdom hall, jehovah will bless you and these people will stop screwing with you.

  @Judas Maccabee:

  I hope you notice there's a lot of encouraging comments and a lot of wise words for you from many members of the forum. I second their good thoughts and urge you to not lose your cool and get good advice from your parents, they seem like they're awake to the nonsense of the WT religion.

  Also, don't pay attention to the ney-sayers like this Wallsofjerk, I mean Jericho, he's sounding like he needs to grow a pair of real cojones. His overposturing seems like a sign of a latent inferiority complex. Just sayin'.
