New World Order (Novus Ordo Seclorum)

by Calebs Airplane in

god not only determined and set his mind on that new world order as soon as the need arose, away back at the time of the rebellion in eden, but also set his heart upon it with unbreakable attachment and devotion.

-watchtower, november 15, 1952 page 696 paragraph 4.

hi, i am also a practicing jehovah's witness and very proud of it,to say the very-very least..!

i am a middle-aged man with many decades of being a witness of jehovah god in england.. this important letter is personally to you, just as many of the bible's 88 letters are to be taken personal by you the reader.

i am writing to you to urge you to take stock of your life, think what your future holds for you.

A saying about not nourishing little men who live under bridges comes to mind.

Don't waste your time people.

Bethel writing dept.

by Kojack57 in

i heard that 3 brothers have resigned from the writing department recently.

does anyone have any information about this?.

.

LostGeneration

Even if true, it means nothing unless one or more comes out publicly about the situation.

There are thousands of GB ball-washers waiting in the wings at Beth-hell at this moment who would gladly take a position writing that drivel.

ELDER LIES AND GET'S PRAISED FOR IT! FALSE ACCUSATIONS AGAINST ME!

by BucketShopBill in

want to know how a lie can turn into a compliment?

only in the jw mindset!!!.

we got called into the dreaded back room after meeting to find two elders wanting to discuss a 'serious' matter with us.

LostGeneration

So why are you even playing this game?

Even if you decide to remain in the KH knowing its bullshit, you have a few simple things that can almost protect you from anything. First, you never go into the back room without knowing the subject being discussed first. In this example, you would simply say no brother has come to you with an issue to resolve and until they do so, you don't have anything to say.

My bet would be that no-balls elder would never say a thing knowing what you've stated.

Actually this whole story sounds like bullshit. Never mind.

JDubs and home schooling

by Ignoranceisbliss in

recently i had a conversation with a close witness friend.

i have always viewed him as moderate.

not full j-dub nut bag witness style.

Even when I was 'in' it was somewhat surprising that the borg didn't push home schooling. Lets face it, JW kids free themselves from the cult by seeing that the rest of the world is having fun, and by learning things like evolution in high school.

I really hope there isn't a push going on toward this home school bullshit.

don't you really feel like your in marketing?.

LostGeneration

Any backlash to report from those inside?

It really does seem like its almost silly. Poor Jah, replaced by an internet site.

This is an organization that has an apocalyptic end-of-days strategic vision that will eventually have to be defeated."

this is an organization that has an apocalyptic end-of-days strategic vision that will eventually have to be defeated, general martin e. dempsey, u.s. chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, said on thursday.. .

he sounds like he's talking about jws.

but he's actually referring to isis.

LostGeneration

People like to think they are 'special' or that they live in 'special times'.

Religions will always be there to capitalize on these weak links. Extracting money and labor from such people will go on for a long time.

It will probably take thousands if not hundreds of thousands of years for evolution to remove such delusion.

The long weekend of B.S begins - UK.

isn't going to be wonderful??.

not being there..

LostGeneration

The strategy has shifted from recruitment to retention.

The aging JW population has little to look forward to (death) and most have lost someone already (parents, siblings, even children).

To "keep them in" the WTS is hammering away at this idea of the resurrection. Emotional claptrap is the easiest way to leave a deep impression on the minds of the JW.

Combine that with ever present guilt trips and the JW is simply going to follow orders so they can make it into the new system and see their dead relatives.

They suck.
