  by JWTom in

  there was a letter read sunday at our meeting that mentioned some parts of us are starting to open back up.

  however, regardless of things opening up that no kingdom halls should be used for any meetings of any kind.

  also, no door-to-door ministry or any form of in-person ministry is allowed.

  The purpose of conversion testimonies and stories

  by LeeT in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a hunch has just struck me.we get frequent accounts in the literature and videos of people whose dysfunctional lived have been turned around by studying with the jw's and coming to belief in the org (sorry, jehovah).

  evangelical type christian groups also use similar testimony stories.here's the hunch:the purpose of these is quite different among jw's compared to other religions.other groups use these testimonies primarily to persuade non-believers.the jw's use them to reinforce the beliefs of those already in the "truth.

  "any thoughts?.

  These stories (experiences) are not unique to Jehovah’s witnesses. They are used as a motivational tool by salesman to make their targets(prospects) feel bad about themselves and purchase the product they are pitching. Same thing in big companies this division is doing blah blah profit and you need to work harder. It’s all unverifiable bullshit that keeps manipulative pricks at the top of the heap and us trusting suckers at the bottom.

  Business can reopen but with restrictions that will increase their costs. Can joe public afford the extra costs?

  I wouldn’t be surprised if the letter was real. Imagine the liafuckingbility if a covid positive jw was going door to door spreading the good virus.

  The price of food will rise. Food banks are already stretched thin. People forced out of their jobs don’t have money. Farmers will have a hard time planting and harvesting their crops this year due to travel restrictions on labor and are unable to source supplies they need. If people aren’t allowed to get back to work this will get ugly.

  If the economy remains closed more people will die from suicide and starvation than Coronavirus would ever kill.
