the guy being interviewed while sitting with his wife in the car was the elder that admitted that he lied at my judicial committee which i have on tape.
he tried saying i had said something to him and his wife and i called him a liar right to his face and then he said i didn't really say what i had been accused of.

Simon - "If they just let people leave without any consequences then they would have lots of empty halls."
Yup.
Every authoritarian religion fears a mass exodus. The WTS has experienced it twice, and they are not eager to go through it again.
reading another thread made me realise that there are numerous expressions used as everyday witness terminology, that is not in the bible.... such as:.
governing body.
paradise earth.

i don't typically hear from my mom often, but i tell you, over the past couple of weeks, i have heard from her several times.
you heard the comment about "our way of worship will be altered" and thank you for your posts by the way....but yesterday, she calls and is asking about the kids and then, in typical jw fashion mind you, says:.
"you know, you should really get back to meetings.
"this is our Armageddon car! It's the last one we'll ever buy!"
I said that about a new car I bought in the last century. I wore it out plus another 2 or 3 since then.
the broadcasting, annual meetings, wt articles, talks etc... that show these gb members upfront are killing them!
they are not only making a complete fool of themselves but they expect us to sit and watch them, listen to them and then believe they are the direct communication with jehovah!?!.
i can't tell you how many comments i've heard from "spiritual" people that i thought i'd never hear them say, not in a good way!
i'm literally speechless on this.
mixed between a big wth, rofl, dumbest thing ever made, and shock that wt actually made this and is taking it seriously!

i wrote a little satirical piece on how the future could look like for jw on my blog.
hope you enjoy it :).
for the first time in its history, the yearbook 2021 of jehovahs witnesses does not contain reports from different countries.
interesting court case whereby the entire will was declared void because the father was racist.. would that not also apply to jw's who disinherit their non-jw family?.

My inlaws have disinherited my wife because she won't do as they wish. Ffs she's a grown woman and can make her own choices.
The good thing is that they told us while we are still young enough to plan for a decent retirement. In fact when the in laws told us they were giving it all to the wtbs it woke us up that we had to hussle and get educated and make better money. Now they complain that we work too much.
left completely unsaid at the meeting: who is going to be the owner of the property & building when all of these new khs are built?
in the current arrangement, in most cases, a local trust is set up to hold ownership.
of course, the most likely answer is "the watchtower (or whatever shell corporations they set up) will own the land & building".

They mentioned in one of the dozen or so PowerPoint / video clips that right up to the last second, some brothers on the [whatever committee was in charge of making the decision] were still convinced that a "residential style" of Kingdom Hall was the way to go. Then they offered a prayer. Then the chairman of the committee asked "who wants the residential style", and not one hand went up. He then asked "who wants the commercial style" and all the hands went up.
This is 100% bullshit. This meeting may not have ever happened. This is an appeal to authority to quell dissent. If any elder questions this arrangement he is questioning Holy Spirit.
how might you respond to the following survey?.
i apologize if this was already posted about, it is just such a poignant issue i wanted to share it.. .
being raised in the truth being raised a witness-perhaps "from infancy," like timothy-is a great blessing.
I'll answer # 9. Renee never wanted to be a missionary. Her parents wanted her to be a missionary so they would have bragging rights at the next circuit assembly.
Its all a big show.
