  Focussing on 'Jesus' poses a threat on the Organization, it takes away the rank and file focus on them(Borganization)

  • Jesus was against the Pharisees because they cared more about outward appearances than people
  • Jesus said that it doesn't matter where we worship as long as we worship in spirit and truth
  • Jesus said to do your good deeds in secret so you may be rewarded in secret
  • Jesus was against having titles like Rabbi
  • Jesus said as long as two or more people were gathered in his name the holy spirit would be there
  • Jesus said mercy was more important than sacrifices

  It's no wonder they try to avoid talking about him, they do the opposite of many of his teachings. Maybe they'll do a convention on Paul they seem to really like him and all his commands and rules.

  Welcoming Our Latest JW Apologist JTrottigy

  by pale.emperor in

  i'd like to take this opportunity to warmly welcome our newest jw apologist jtrottigy.

  .

  he'll likely only be here for a few days like most jw defenders before he runs away when presented with his own doctrine.. so far he's already said some hilarious stuff, like "there's no such thing as nepotism in jehovah's organisation", "confidentiality is paramount to elders" and, my personal favourite "the overlapping generation is so simple to understand".. yh don't think i don't remember you from jwtalk..

  Congrats, JTrottigy, you should do a lot of research here because apostates are known to target the carts and try to rattle JWs.

  Re: the woman parking attendants and real life

  with much amusement i read the thread on women parking lot attendants and it got me to thinking about life at home for the average jw.. i believe i am correct in thinking that anything to do with jw-ism requires a penis, except all the leg work (fs & pioneers).

  meaning the mic's, talks, etc... but yet the same guy who thinks his wife (or any other woman) is not bright enough to run the sound system for example doesn't mind his wife hauling hay, digging in the yard, managing the checkbook and other various physical jobs as well as jobs that do in fact require a brain larger than that of a gnat?.

  let's say a guy is a bit technologically challenged but he can manage the sound system at the kh ok. i imagine he feels proud that he is getting to do this great privilege?

  You hear a lot about submission but let's be honest, it rarely works that way in real life. Men may have all the privileges in the org but at home many times it's the opposite. Most of the time decisions will be made by the person who cares the most and often times that is the wife.

  I see many commenting here about the convention not mentioning about Jesus. Even if they had, so what? Is Jesus truly a historical figure, truly the son of God, truly performed miracles, all his prophecies came true?
  The way Jesus said to leave our family and follow him, makes him a cult leader too.

  I think the point is that many of the things that Jesus taught go directly against the concept of high control religion and JWs try to avoid those ideas.

  It takes a good imagination to be a JDub

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  at the regional convention, the speaker said that jehovah is our best friend.

  so let's see...if i need a ride to the doctor's office can i call on my best friend to give me a ride to the office?

  when i wake up in the morning and tell my best friend jehovah, "good morning, how are you?

  Another speaker said that we can also make Jehovah happy or sad. I wonder which member of the Gibbering Booty Jehovah shared that with so that we know we are so important in the universe that we affect the emotions of God?

  This has never made sense, there are 8 billion people on earth so God must be very emotionally confused. Maybe each one of us makes his heart sad or glad for tiny fraction of a second?

  If JWs are living "The Best Life Ever," then why preach?

  by JW_Rogue in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  shouldn't the unhappy and unfulfilled worldly people see what jws have and be drawn to them?

  shouldn't they be showing up at khs asking for bible studies?

  at work shouldn't they be asking how jws families are so happy?

  There are different charities everywhere in the world. The volunteers working there say that it gives them true happiness and purpose in life. If they claim that they are truly happy, then why do you think they work hard to have all these fundraising programs to attract more volunteers and raise funds?

  Maybe it's fake just like JWs LOL

  JW's don't vote so I can't see he'd care.

  Maybe if mainstream Christians liked JWs but most don't so I don't think he'll do much there.

  Many would say that Jehovah can use any "tool" to accomplish his purpose.

  I don't think they would even need to be rich but if they exuded happiness and seemed to genuinely have a purpose in life, then they wouldn't need to put in billions of hours knocking on people's doors.
