it seems that the more i research, the more i find that it's all just a big scam.
is there any evidence that even the bible isn't just another big religion/government scam?
would we listen to putin or obama if they told us they have verified new holy writings?
The Bible shows me that God is so humble that he became a humble dirty Jewish hippie love child, comprimising his omnipotence, his omniscience, and his omnipresence.
So humble that he threatens to burn everyone who doesn't recognize him forever and ever. Nice guy.
a lot of comments have been made about possible big changes at the agm in the fall.. comments range from changes to the blood doctrine or who compose the one hundred and forty four thousand.. my speculation is.... (and if someone else had this kind of thread i am not stealing from you..just never read it).
the door to door as we know it will cease to exist.
the publishing of a monthly public wt and awake will end.. instead each month a tract with different subjects and a redirect to jw.org will come out.
This site is about discussing the topic presented in the subject line.
If you want to start a topic on UN conspiracy nonsense, economic collapse, and other broken clock predictions, start a thread on it.
Then in 5,10, or 20 years all of us will have a permanent record we can look back and see how wrong you were.

The UN is reaching into more areas (agenda 21), World government is being rapidly maneuvered, more and more the US constitution is being ignored, economic collapse is almost here. Things ARE accelerating.
Put away your tin foil cap and join the 21st century.

They shot their wad with last year's AGM. Can't top a new bible.
They've been in a frenzy of made up shit for a good year now, all to distract from 1914-2014-JacK Shit hasn't happened.
I think they let things die down a bit, then crank up the propoganda machine in a year or two.
i'm not sure what is going on at the convention, but i just got a desperate call from a friend wanting me to attend sunday's morning session.
last weekend, my mom invited me too.instead of saying something like, "i'm sorry, but i have no intention of going back," and having them completely freak out - i agreed to go to the sunday morning session.
any recommendations?
Well, its kind of an appeasement move - going to just make them happy. If you are a long time fader, you have to weigh what will keep you off of the elder's radar.
If you can make it through the morning without vomiting I guess its a 'do what you have to do' thing.

Your post is kinda confusing but I would just say "Thanks for the invitation, weekends are really, really busy right now, but I'll see what I can do".
Then, just carry on with your life like nothing happened.
we have been told this week that all in the elder and ms body will be read a letter from the gb about "make this the greatest month of activity ever"..... has anyone else had such a letter read out in their cong / servant body?.
i presume it will be all about "recommending strongly/insisting" that all these men should pioneer for the month?.
Stuckin, sounds like the perfect opportunity to step down.
"Brothers, my inability to aux pioneer made me realize I cannot be looked upon as an example in our hall any longer."

we're always saying the way to reach someone still "in" is to share parallel information about other religions and bro.
jake's videos (with very minor variations) are almost interchangeable between mormons and witnesses.. .
All of this guys content is awesome!
it's about a year since i started visiting this website.
it all started with the july 15 wt last year and all the changes.
lazy me had not read it online so when one bro said to me at the hall, 'have you read all the new stuff in that issue' i didn't know what he was talking about.
Rather than "making room" for bullshit, why not shovel it out of your life and stop smelling it?
At least quit being an elder and propogating lies, you'll feel much better about yourself even if some self-righteous JWs look down their noses at you for resigning your cult-enforcer job.
are "stuck in" jws in a toxic relationship?
this past two weeks, i've been realizing that a few of my jw relatives are very toxic people (they fit the description below).
i realized that alot of ex-jws who are stuck dealing with jws may also be in a toxic relationship.
So what did you tell the relative? Just that you are done with him/her?
A really big problem with the JW religion is that it does nothing to help people deal with their issues. Rather, its the kick the can down the road theory that everything will be solved when Jehoopla kills off everyone else and awards panda bears and fruit platters to his faithful servants. So the messed up JW simply persists in all of their crazyness under the guise of serving Jehoopla.
Being five years removed makes me realize there is no way in hell I would submit to a relationship with 98% of JWs simply because of the cult glasses they have to wear around. The idiotic statements they make about the world around them simply are too stupid to tolerate.
