Micah 6:8 and Malachi 3:10 were purposely translated in 2013 with a slant to promote more servitude to the governing body and set the stage for taking more of your money.

do not be afraid, for i am with you.

Blood fractions? They must think the average jw doesn’t have the smarts to figure out how an mRNA vaccine is manufactured.

Further thoughts on the new media Center project
by nowwhat? inthe organization figured out that a big building project gives the rank and file something to be engaged in and excited about.
it distracts them from their hamster wheel life.
and it buys them another 5 years until the next big thing.

Pioneers, Elder's Wives most self righteous. Etc.
by Overrated inas a jw did you have a pioneer sister/elder's wife who was the biggest busybody, self righteous, arrogant pus in the circuit?
who would look down on others and treat people like crap.. without giving to much away, i experienced one that knew everyone in circuit.
and if she or her husband saw or heard something they didn't like it was " you know what the bible says" regardless if it was in there or not.

It seemed to me that when a new circuit overseer came to town they would always stay at the home of the most gossipy, intruding elders wife.
That way if you weren’t in you would know at the first meeting by how the CO and his wife treated you.

Changed From "Disfellowshipped" to "No Longer One of Jehovah's Witnesses!
by Atlantis ina friend is trying to figure out the approximate date or letter, which indicated a change from the wording of public announcements.. they changed from saying the person has been disfellowshipped to saying that a person was no longer one of jehovah's witnesses.. i thought it was around the time of the bulgaria scandal.. could you help us out to remember when this change took place?
if we could remember the approximate year, we could look up all the boe's for that year and might find the letter.. many thanks!.
atlantis!.

I used to be in good enough standing to be interviewed at the assemblies. You practice what you will say in front of the elder that will interview you. Just before the session the DO and CO listen to the part and tell you to change what you say(lie). They say it would be more “encouraging “ to the brothers if you took this out and said this.
All bullshit

I was one of the suckers, but I woke up in time to salvage a decent part of my life.
If there is a god, the leaders of this religion have a lot to answer for. They are beyond decent human beings, manipulating honest decent people for their own benefit and profit.

Over the years I’ve seen quite a few jw sisters marry out of the truth and their worldly husbands study and become jws.
