  GB bites off more than they can chew!

  the gb bit off more than they can chew.

  they promised that the nwt revised would be available in so many languages by now, and they have failed miserably.. english stands alone.

  as a result, they are in damage control mode.

  awhile back someone posted a pic of the rank/ order of command within the org.

  it started with a picture of earth and god sitting on his throne, then the gb body members sitting at there table, then the elders underneath them and then the r&f and so forth.. no mention of jesus in that photo.

  could someone familiar with the article that it came out of provide me with the reference please?.

  Hi Simon

  Everytime I try to search the word "Scapegoat" on the forum I get a "Server error"

  Is this like a forbidden word or something? I can type in "scapegoats" and it goes through just fine but if I try it in the singular no matter what browser im using the same issue occurs everytime.

  Any insight you can shed on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

  Gas Pump "Witnessing"....Is this a thing?

  by Bob Loblaw in

  i've seen this twice now within a month.

  a car group hanging out at a gas station.

  one of the cult members jumps outs of their car and runs up to a "worldly" gas pumper, arm stretched out, tract in hand, and here comes the juvenile at best question.

  Oh yea when I was a jw we used to do that form of preaching all the time. Gas station witnessing was a given everyday to start off our time in the mornings. Most would tell us to F##k off.

  The strategy was to try to catch em while they were pumping gas so they couldn't run off easy. A few gas stations even banned the jws from soliciting there as people would start to complain. Its a very common practice where im from

  if anyone had to guess, what do you think the average age of the community actually is?.

  are more millennials actually waking up or is it pretty even amongst previous generations as well?

  No more reporting time for field service!!!

  so at last i am in my next step of my fade, this month is the first month i did not turned in any hours.

  i received a text from our group leader an ms & i told him i didn't have any to report, then of course it got bumped up to the elder & i text him back i have no hours to report for december.

  i came to this decision when reading many posters here about the yearbook stats, i do not want & refused to contribute to this organization "boosting" numbers for their glorious purposes, after the rc in australia they do not deserve for me to give them a "production" report of what i do for god, no more.

  Thats how it begins. By your second month of no reporting they will begin trying to arrange a shepherding call then the surprise pop in visits and love bombing from fellow jws will come. Give it time.. you'll see soon

  Living as Christians at the C.L.A.M this week

  by Truthexplorer in

  this weeks meeting under the section - living as 'christians', starts off with 'repentance makes a difference', which is a talk given by an elder taken from w06 11/15 27-28 par 7-9. in a nut shell it discusses those who have been disfellowshipped and then show repentance.

  it then goes on to discuss reinstatement and how a certain amount of time must pass by before this can take place.

  it makes the following point in the paragraph.. 'a disfellowshipped person is not automatically accepted back into the congregation after a certain amount of time has passed.

  Yes indeed. One of my husbands family members got disfellowshipped for sleeping with a brother she was dating in the same hall. She got disfellowshipped and cut off from her whole family. Treated like a true leper by her flesh and blood while the brother she slept with did NOT get disfellowshipped and the family still kept active communication with him.

  Talk about twisted hypocrisy. Stuff like this is the reason I will never go back!!
