when we look at the total universe imagine a jar of sand.
just one grain of sand would be our galaxy so we may be able to see our earth with an electron microscope.
with that in mind, it always made we cringe when at the meetings an elder would say "jehovah has prepared a spiritual banquet for us tonight," or "it makes jehovah happy that we made the effort to attend the meeting tonight.
If Jehobo really did prepare the meeting material, wouldn't it be the shit? I mean the absolutely most interesting, intriguing, blow your mind stuff? The best ever, right? He created the freaking universe, right people??
So why do I remember time slowing down to a crawl at each and every meeting? Its like those two hours expanded to five or six!! It was so boring, repetitive, and mind numbing!
Now I see the material and its even worse! Dumbed down to a third graders level. Whiteboard animations on how to go to the convention?? If he's actually behind this he's a damn ignorant God figure.

no.. pomi (physically out, mentally in)?
no.. pamo (physically & mentally out)?
POMO

You've been told what you should do.
If you stay in this any longer you're just a sucker for being abused.
having a bit of a problem.
in january i quit a job of 22 years to work at a shop that does screw attachments.

Ask for $8 more an hour and 5 weeks vacation.
Will be interested to see how bad they want you back
according to the latest forum 18 article, this is what happened in russia on march 15:.
http://www.forum18.org/archive.php?article_id=2265.
with immediate effect, a 15 march suspension order forbids the administrative centre and all its local religious organisations from "using state and municipal news media, organising and conducting assemblies, rallies, demonstrations, processions, picketing, and other mass actions or public events, and using bank deposits, with the exception of use for making payments connected with their economic activity, compensating for losses (damages) caused by their actions, and paying taxes, fees, or fines, and making payments based on labour contracts" .
I'd love it if Russia boxed up all the letters, drop shipped them to Brooklyn with a note on the box(es) saying "A little housewarming gift for you to take to your new HQ."
These clowns running the show really don't get how insignificant they are, do they?

Other than that, one of the most absurd pieces of cult propaganda that I've ever seen. I'd love to see Cedars do a piece on this on Youtube
hello everyone i wish everyone a good day and many good prayers to all.
as a newcomer here 2nd post overall.
and i have to approach this subject of this book, now i know this book has been talked about on this site a while ago, but i had to bring it back up as most still in jw's know today is the first day of them doing the memorial preaching work.
Its tough to get a JW to look at old literature. They just consider it irrelevant.
The best argument I ever saw on this board about that book is that it would have been the book Jesus inspected upon naming the Bible Students his peeps in 1919. Pose or state that fact to a JW before you introduce them to the crazy ass shit in that piece of work.
it's funny as i reflect back on my days as a witness during the watchtower study.
it seems like no matter what the question asked.
it was like parrots squawking back exactly what they had just heard with absolutely no thought or even the slightest expression of free will.
One of the best lines in Ray's book, something along the lines of "I never saw much value in being a parrot"
excellent general website: www.jwfacts.com .

I think I'd literally shoot myself in the head if I had to sit through a WT discussion on how I should use my free will.
