  Interesting announcement about cleaning the Kingdom Hall. Lol

  ”even if you do not feel qualified, the brothers may be able to train you and your children together.”

  This tells me that many are using the excuse of they are not qualified to do menial tasks to get out of cleaning the Kingdom Hall.

  They are just tired of being micromanaged and treated like literal children and having their time wasted.

  Mrs Hoser did rbc and got shit on for exposing a structural error tha one of the higher up male elders made on a Kingdom Hall. After that anytime we’re asked to do something at the Kingdom Hall she said we’re not qualified

  The org: Coal calling the kettle black! #2

  "the generally accepted definition of propaganda is this: an organization for the propagation of a doctrine or system, the purpose of which is to cause the membership of the system or organization to increase or enlarge.

  religious organizations engage in propaganda, because each system of religion tries to increase its membership.

  the work of jehovah’s witnesses for his kingdom is entirely a different matter.

  The org either is oblivious to their hypocrisy and don’t honestly can’t see themselves or their actions……or

  They fully know the mental manipulation that they are employing to deceive and entrap millions of people into their scam.

  My most memorable was Wayne Johnson. He was so stuck up and made a whole bunch of rules for other to follow. A real ass. I heard he was later removed from his lofty DO throne. He served in Canada and particularly in Ontario

  
  
  I remember him. I was too young to know what kind of a prick he really was but older people have filled me in.
  Larry Erickson. He made grown men cry. One elder actually stepped down before Larry’s visit because he knew he was out (shift worker) and didn’t want to endure being bullied by Erickson.
  Terry Attick. Manipulative prick. Obsessed with talking about the dangers porn with the elders and ministerial servants. I think he was viewing it secretly and projecting. That guy would interfere in everyone’s lives and broke up many boyfriend/ girlfriend couples. He belittled my wife and children to their faces. Not a pleasant person to be around.

  They told the media they reported but in fact didn’t.

  They are masters at begging for money.

  By turning a legal, fiscal requirement into a religious event they can guilt the attendees into $$$$

  Retirement savings

  what's the current jw stance on retirement savings?

  i know it changed.

  pre1975 it was an attitude of "don't worry about retirement, this system is ending soon".

  I see many Jehovahs witnesses that earn more than sufficient income but can’t manage their finances. They spend it as fast or faster than they earn it.

  I think part of the problem is the “We’re in the last, last, last part of the final part of the last days” bullshit that the governing body spews from their pie holes. One thing of certainly is this: The governing body, circuit overseer, body of elders don’t give a shit about your financial future or retirement. What they care about is your meeting attendance, field service report and time that you donate to building kingdum hauls. It’s nothing to do with you but all about them.

  I would actually go as far to say that the org pads the numbers at every level to appear to be more charitable than they really are and to keep the person above you off your back. I just can’t imagine the hassle the circuit overseer would give to an elder body with low hours.

  Knowing what I know now if I were in that situation I would vehemently deny having sex before marrying, referring to the two witness rule.

  Honest people get to eat all the shit in life while abusive con artists like your ex husband screw you over in more ways than one. I would have thrown him under the bus for what he did to you

  People need to learn to not become emotionally attached to a situation. It’s too easy for others to control you.

  One elder I knew carried a resignation letter in his briefcase. He was a good elder but wouldn’t allow himself to be manipulated.

  When things got heated he would pull out the letter and offer to hand it to the PO. That would end the conversation and he would remain an elder.

  Going through any kind of meeting as depicted in this video is demeaning, humiliating and likely to cause life long trauma.

  Pimo elders. Have your resignation letter ready to hand to them.

  LongHairGal:

  The words I should have used were strongly discourage their members from attending university.

  You or your kids can go to university but you will be soft shunned by the group.
