I was in the same car group as her in the ministry on Saturday. She was complaining as usual. Someone else in the group was purposely prodding her to complain and then making light of it. Guess she's just a chronic whiner.

Something from the watchtower study I attended today. One of the elders commented that no one should be stumbled if someone shows up at the meeting with liquor on their breath.

I wonder if that applies to me on Sunday morning after I've been on an all night bender?

Paragraph 13 is in theory only. In theory jehovah doesn't measure us based on the numbers on our field service report.

In the real Jehovah's Witness world your whole character, identity and value as an individual is based on the number of hours on your field service report.

New WTS end date - 2034?

by campaign of hate in

so i already made an introductory thread where i said hello and mentioned my feelings toward 2034 being the wts new end date.. we get the year 2034 from matt 24:37 & luke 17:26. the wt commented on the "days of noah" in a qfr article 2010 12/15.

where its stated: "it is logical, therefore, to conclude that genesis 6:3 expresses gods resolve to end the corrupt system of things on earth.

jehovah issued a judicial decree to do so in 120 years, though noah was not yet aware of that.

That's 19 years from now. We won't hear anything about it for another 10 years or so. Have to keep things urgent for the sheeples.

you have to watch the movie "the giver"!

it is simply an awesome movie for every thinking witness, or those trying to break free from the org's hold on us.. i wont give away too much, but the concept of the film is mind blowing!

utopia vs reality etc... conformity vs individuality and humanity... etc.

It should be on DVD by now

Will the WTS follow the McDonald's corporate model?

by sir82 in

jw
friends

as most people know, mcdonald's derives the principal part of its earnings, not from greasy food, but from real estate.. they buy property, then, in addition to charging franchisees for the right to use their name, they charge them rent for the building sitting on corporately-owned real estate.. this business model yields well over $20 billion per year in gross revenue.. could this be the idea behind the soon-to-come revamp of the rbcs into ldcs?

the wts will purchase property and charge its "franchisees" (the congregations) a fee to use the building on the site?.

of course, it wouldn't be called a "franchise fee" or even "rent", it would be named something like a "voluntary contribution to support kingdom interests" or some such folderol.. any "non-performing" congregations would get shut down and/or merged, and the property sold.

hoser

Any real estate gurus out there? Could a non-profit religious entity get away with charging an (in essence) franchise fee / rent for property it owns?

Why not? None of the members will vocally object even though they know they are getting hosed.

NEW LIGHT FROM SLO CIRCUIT OVERSEER "Warning, Blood on Doorposts", "The Couple who Missed One Meeting Died With Their Kids, Don't Miss Any!

by Trailer Park Pioneer in

sorry, i messed up before i could put the right title on this new light from our circuit overseer, his visit show's a great desperation in the organization's mindset, adding more anxiety and guilt to jws who already feel they don't measure up!.

hi, i attended the circuit overseers visit and got really angry because our c.o.

gave information coming from the governing body's chief apologists regarding "meeting attendance" and "the couple who missed one meeting and lost their entire family because they did not get the "411" when armageddon was coming!

It is just bullying and death threats to try to control

Kingdom Consolidation and Sales are coming – Reliable Source

by thedepressedsoul in

i heard form a reliable source that a kingdom hall consolidation is going to be happening in the us.

currently they are looking at every kingdom hall to see if they could and should sell it.

any kingdom hall that has not been updated and is in a bad location (long driveway, not in a visible location etc...) will be sold.

hoser

I can't think of any at my hall who would be willing to travel to another hall if the local one got sold.

you'd be surprised what jehovahs witnesses will do
