co training video: link to ex-jw reddit thread discussion.
today is the first time i was made aware of this actual elder body video.
it's training for how a co should handle elder's whose children decide to pursue further education.
I’m amazed at what little reward people need to be duped into working for free.
The title of elder and keeping that title dictates entire families lives, their economic future, their children and grandchildrens future.
It isn’t even a piece of paper that you can hang on your wall.

Humans naturally don’t like other humans appearing to succeed.
They somehow feel threatened and want to drag you down to their level of mediocrity

I never gave it much thought that the elders might discourage college just to retain cheap indentured jw servants
I wouldn’t put it past them
perhaps you considering joining the wt cult - here is a concise list of why you should not.. what the watchtower demands of you:.
1.complete obedience to them.. 2. be willing to lose your life for zany blood teachings.. 3.put other cult members before your real family.. 4.refusal to let you leave their religion when the penny drops it's a cult.. 6.accept that they can backtrack and change any of their flip flop teachings at any time.. 7. you can't change your mind about their teachings without harsh discipline,.
8. insistence that you humbly and quickly apologise for your mistakes and errors.. 9.gladly accept they will never be apologising for any of their mistakes or errors of judgement.. 10.accept that even ones who follow and believe in the bible, but not the governing body are worthy of destruction.. please feel free to add more..
Smoking is unhealthy anyway.
They will over the course of your lifetime suck your soul and bank account dry.
They will steal your youth, your prime earning years and make sure you are dependant on government handouts in your old age.

so as they say one picture is as strong as a thousand words and here you have it guys in the latest study edition of the watchtower for october 2024 that has just been posted on their website a middle aged jw window cleaner dreaming of the new system where things will get better.
why does the watchtower need to talk now about jws on minial self employed jobs?
Seems to me they don’t want you earning money but if you have made lots of money they look the other way when you miss meetings to earn some more

mark sanderson's fake and vivid imagination experience starts at the 1 minute 30 second mark:.
goes out with local brothers and sisters in door to door service.
I call 100% bullshit on this made up experience by fatso sanderson
But it is a very useful manipulation tool
Protect the governing body at all costs
If a man in a shady car can give a large donation so can you.
If you are tired and don’t feel like going out in service you should because we do
Anyone saying the gb don’t go out in service is a lying apostate
like the org just gives up and comes out saying that all of what they are saying is untrue and that there is no armageddon, nothing.
how do y’all think the the members still in it would react?.
there be a mental health crisis i perhaps.
The governing body will keep the scam going until the bitter end.
Who else do they have to go out to Lord?
this thread currently has over 300 comments.. it shows a picture of an older man washing a window looking wistfully… then it talks all about how some may have doubts about not having planned and the situation they are in now that they are older, etc.
it refers to others who did plan and who supposedly have ‘apparent’ financial security.
in my opinion, the whole gist of this article is to make older witnesses feel better who did not pursue a career or plan well for retirement.. it tries to imply that those others who planned only have ‘apparent’ financial security - which is to say they don’t (?).
It is expensive to be a popular jw
You miss a lot of paying work and you provide a lot of free labour to the watchtower corporations
You have to take time off work for elder school and pioneer school
my parents would buy brand new cars and have them miled out in 5 years in theocratic activities
There is nothing left over for your retirement savings. Watchtower owns the house and the house never loses.
anyone have any anecdotal reports of individual congregation finances since the stealth takeover by the wt of their checking accounts?.
are donations up?
can they pay their bills?.
The borg skim off the tops of the congregations but when the roof needs repair they solicit the congregation for more donations
