  "well beyond the intent of the scriptures" 7:44

  if you have the jw app running on your tablet, watch the latest (may) governing broadcast and hear tony the jackass, and when you get to 7 minutes and 44 seconds ...hit the pause button.. read the words at the bottom of the screen as per the jw app close captioning.. "well beyond the intent of the scriptures" .

  he is describing the governing body past, like the ghost of christmas past.

  yes, the governing body past were a bunch of freaking yahoo's violating 1 cor.

  They were still God's channel but they were imperfect that day. Still if you were alive back then you had to believe it 100% even if you could show that it was false from the bible. Today you have to believe everything coming from the GB even if it's as trivial as tight pants and where you take the family for vacation.

  The GT is the fear they are using to motivate people into full time service, simplifying, and doing more.

  Don't Want To Be At The RC This Year...

  by JW_Rogue in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the whole time i'll just be thinking about what effect all those crazy loyalty videos will have on my family.

  i can venture to guess that they'll be wound up and determined to "stay loyal" because this "is the truth" and "this system can't last much longer".

  i have to go because not doing so would raise too much suspicion but i'm really dreading it.

  Can you volunteer in parking?

  I already have an assignment that should keep me away for awhile although I'll still be able to hear the program and see the videos. I'm an attendant, so next you're at a convention remember that the attendants could very well be awake. As somebody (not a JW) told me last year at least as attendant you get a "nice view".

  DOC - Sounds great but the wifey wouldn't go for that I don't think. I'll have to find some reason to be out of my seat but I know the effect will be there.

  Shooting in the foot (homophobic video)

  by Syme in

  with the newly released homophobic video by the wts, it gets clearer that those people can't stop shooting themselves in the foot.

  they are already under examination and de facto trial by the australian committee; more and more people and officials in western democracies inquire into their abusive tactics and put them under the microscope, and what do they do?

  they release a video which confirms those worries.

  that they just can't stop posting such material, even when it's damaging to their supposed goal of winning converts, and even though they know it!

  The days of winning converts are over, now it's all about controlling the flock and reinforcing the persecution complex. I'd say the video did both of those very well. JWs will view any backlash as being persecuted for righteousness sake. Most JWs agree with the position taken in the video that gays can be accepted but they must stop their homosexual lifestyle (meaning being celibate forever). They consider that the position of a loving God.

  DD - They are definitely ratcheting up the fear factor but I don't for one second think they believe any of this doomsday nonsense. It is a way to manipulate people the same way the resurrection video was, their aim is to keep people from leaving in whatever way possible. Intellectual reasons for staying have all but dried up so now it's time to play on the emotions. They have nothing to gain by being a death cult.

Any outsider who comes will be running for the hills convinced that JWs really are a cult.

  I don't think it's funny at all, I know what the GB want people to take from this video. Mainly that we need to do more now, if we can't sacrifice material things now how will we survive the GT? Although many worldly people would laugh and mock it as a doomsday scenario by a wacky little cult JWs won't see this like that. Many will reason that even though we aren't facing persecution in the US now that the FDS must have some hidden knowledge about the nearness of the GT. This will motivate these types of JWs to double down on the cult personality and not relent to any doubts. In their eyes the FDS is inherently good so they won't see it for the manipulation that it is.

  i have already posted how i outed to an elder.... the only results were that another elder mentioned to me: "i heard you have doubts about the truth will you meet with us and clear it up... i also had doubts... i fixed them i can help.

  " laughing inwardly i said sure.. oh i'm going to slaughter this moron.

  when he asks my doubts i will show him the chromosome #2 video with ken miller.

  So let me get this straight, you're going to go after them with science and non WT approved history? Two things JWs don't believe in?
