this is the last boe we will be able to provide.
our informant or source, was caught, disfellowshipped, and thrown out of bethel.
we knew that sooner or later the watchtower would find him out.
Atlantis- Wish him all the best. He is at least a DFed person who already knows TTATT and is not in any danger of returning to the Pharisee CULT. I hope he lands back on his feet and is able to get move on. Thank him for all his posting - also in name of JWR (jehovahswitnessrecovery.com)
I am sure that someone else will take his place as Bethel-insider for us soon.
some of you may remember what i posted back in january:.

well, it's now march, and we have been getting answers:.
MIT - how excellent! Congrats - hope it works out well
rehashed format but same ole' shite.. hypocritical article on viewing "weak" ones compassionately usign the example of a single mum arriving late yet the may km has a whole article on how rude it is not to be punctual.. read it and weep....
Thus...attending University is now a Sin!
It may have fallen in wrong hands and show up at upcoming the Nuclear Summit later this month.
so i just happened to bump into an elder today.
a guy my age that i used to know.
i was having a quick breakfast.
Start with asking questions and leave it to him to give you a satisfactory answer from the Bible - not the literature. Ask him to explain the Generation teaching, and how it can be that the Generation of 1914 is now gone. Next question is for him to explain the current teaching of who the faithful and discrete slave is - again using the Bible to justify his answer. This should fill your visit.

Viviane,
I am NOT ill informed and DID watch the show. Indeed question everything - which as I pointed out is NOT allowed as a JW to question the WTBTS teachings.

Just watched it...impressive (but nothing really new if you are up-to-date on Science topics)
I can't help but seeing the inquisition and how anybody asking questions was excommunicated as a complete parallel to what the Governing Body does today... Anyone voicing the slightest doubts or questioning things is labeled "apostate" and disfellowshipped (excommunicated).
I hope this series of COSMOS opens the eyes of a few more and encourages people to "question everything".
our insightful posters on this site were able to predict the new "spirit directed" generation teachings and fds teaching even years in advance.
what bomb do you thing will be dropped this year?
i know it will be big.
If any bomb is dropped, it will be at the AGM early October. My best guess would be one of the following:
- The DC will be discontinued and replaced with the AGM (also one day, max 2)
- The 144k will become a symbolic number rather than literal (but they may push this change a few years out)
- Public Magazines become only available on-line (Tracts now counted as placements)
Look at whatever teaching are not sustainable or whatever costs can be cut and you will have their changes.
b.o.r.i.n.g.. same ol' stuff.
highlights:.
- reading the bible "must be more than an intellectual experience".
"They are LAZY"?!?!?!?!?
One thing I am not and most active "apostates" and that is lazy. I am far more knowledgeable about and up-to-date on JW teachings that probably 999 out of the 1000 witnesses. I could debate any JW with a seconds notice.
