It is just like in Jesus' day. There was the written word and there was the oral tradition. Same thing today. The oral tradition( no beards, 10 hours per month required, no coloured socks bla bla bla) carries an equal value to the written word but is easier to change if needed. Same shit, different pile. Religious leaders have been treating the average joe like garbage for thousands of years. Nothing really changes over time.

28Night and Day from GB to Writing committee? Someone explain?
by thedepressedsoul inim sure by now most of you are familiar with anthony morris talk from this weekend.
im even seeing memes posted all over instagram from jw mocking it.. here is my question, why are the things written so different from how the gb members, like anthony morris are?
i know the gb dont actually write the stuff but i was under the impression that they come up with the spiritual light pass if off to the writing committee and they put it in the publications.

Does having priveleges in the congregation mean you will have a successful marriage?
by hoser inafter reading about tight pant tony's rant about sisters only marrying ministerial servants lest their marriage will be a failure what anecdotal evidence do you have to support this.
the divorces that i am familiar with in the congregation show me that having priveledges in the congregation do not improve the odds of a better marriage.
i would say about 60% of the divorces had at least one spouse who was a pioneer, elder or ministerial servant.

Apparently, I'm a "unique case" and they are going to talk to the other elders and CO. They want to meet with me and might be sending me a letter requesting a meeting but said that I should not be worried about getting disfellowshipped.
And pigs can fly. Anytime you meet with elders you should be worried about getting disfellowshipped.

i'm currently (right now) running a mic up and down the aisles, recognising the faulty logic, one line platitudes, and indoctrination techniques.

"Life is so hard!...tribulation and problems abound!" Persecution complex of witnesses.....
by stuckinarut2 inthe meeting this week is mind-blowing in the way it fuels the crippling "persecution complex" of witnesses!.
paragraph 1 set the theme with this gem:.
does it shock you that you can expect to face many tribulations before you gain the prize of everlasting life?

Paragraph 13 and 14 are the worst. Blaming satan for being discouraged when the real culprit is the toxic culture of the Jehovah's Witness religion.

About 10 or 15 years ago members of the governing body were no longer officers of the watchtower corporations. This was done in anticipation of a day like this so they could weasel their way out of any legal problems.

Looking from the outside in, it is so easy to see the scam. When I was a believer I would have wholeheartedly subscribed to the idea and cut them a check.

How to Knock Nazi Elders off their high horse
by suavojr inthe borg has many inconsistencies, when the topic is helping humble and honest people achieve their full potential.
consider a working man who works 40 to 60 hours a week and still manages to show up to all the meetings, participate, do all of his assigned work within the kh, but his ministry has slipped to 8 hours per month.
this same man is working hard to move up within the ranks only to get shut down without even knowing.. .
