  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.

  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?

  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.

  LEAK: 3000 buildings to liquidate. How to choose? (Watchtower propaganda video)

  as the leaked financial meetings show, watchtower (by it's own admission) has to liquidate 3000+ properties quickly.

  how do they choose?

  I like how they focus on filling more seats but dance around the actual goal: selling Kingdom Halls for the cash.

  Accounts report at Circuit Assemblies to go away

  by LevelThePlayingField in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was at the regional convention and asked an elder why is that at the assemblies their is an accounts report but not at the conventions?

  he said, well actually they got a letter and in it said that in a little while they will do away with the accounts report stating how much the assembly costs for the weekend and just go to donation basis like at the conventions.. my first thought was, "they will donate even less now.".

  anybody else hear about such a thing?.

  They probably know that the whole deficit thing is now known to be a scam. Even PIMIs know all about how it works, time to get rid of it. It outlived it's usefulness.

  What's really funny is that you can get a QR code for just about any shitty website very easily. It's not like it was some big accomplishment of programming.

  Miss America and Misguided Views on Sexuality

  by Simon in

  1. social
  2. current

  so miss america pageant is going to remove the swimsuit and evening gown parts of their pageant because they have decided it's demeaning to women.

  i guess it will just be women in overcoats telling us they want world peace .... bravo, we all applaud, right?

  maybe we shouldn't be so quick to do so .... what is it really saying?

  It is a "beauty pageant," so if they are taking it out because it's demeaning, then isn't the whole thing demeaning? You can't have it both ways either the whole thing is demeaning or it's not. The girls are agreeing to be there right? If they truly had a problem being judged on their looks, then they wouldn't enter the contest.

  Only one real point per WT study...

  by JW_Rogue in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  has anyone else noticed that in the wt study articles the main point they want you to remember is always somewhere around paragraph 11-14?

  it's like a formula.

  intro and overview paragraphs 1-4. basic wt stuff 5-8 (not controversial).

  In hypnosis we call this a "yes set". You get someone to agree with something minor, then get them to agree with another minor or ambiguous thing then they're more than likely to agree with the third because the brain likes consistency.
  The WT are introducing a basic bible idea (yes), then another (yes) than a cult message (yes).

  Interesting point, they build people up by making them feel smart, then if they really want to keep that feeling they have to agree with WT on everything. It fails when you don't even believe the basic nonsense anymore.
