What does it say about an organization that claims to be God's organization when....
by stuckinamovement inyou are told that what sets your organization apart from all other religions is that there is no human leader, just jesus, but if you want to follow jesus and receive salvation you must obey and follow the leadership and direction of 8 self appointed human leaders.. .
it's elders or servants cannot resign a position of responsibility for personal reasons, or without an interrogation by other elders and then permission by headquarters.
despite the bible saying at 1 tim.

Mental torture
by stuckinamovement init is pretty interesting to see the mental, emotional and physical impact that people have when realize the teachings of the org are lies.
i am not going to name any names or point fingers but i can say i have tremendous empathy for those who are recently aware.. let me splane,.
now that i know about the lies that i have been taught and subsequently taught people myself, i have become like a lost person.

Will there ever be another defection from the GB?
by stuckinamovement inray franz decided to leave bethel and the governing body because he could not continue to promote or support the lies and half truths that were being told.
do you think that it is possible that one of the new boys might actually grow a pair of balls and stand up for what is true and reject what is false?.
there are so many doctrines that time has annulled.

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
by stuckinamovement inaction - what is amazing to me is how many people who become witnesses do so because they genuinely love and respect god.
after baptism they express a great amount of zeal.
they look back at their former religious beliefs with disgust and anger.

Is there anything that could actually bring down this farce of a religion?
by stuckinamovement init seems as if they have survived it all.
bad press such as articles on molestations, neutrality, blood, defections of high ranking officials, crazy changes in doctrines, financial stresses, passage of a 100 years without one prophecy coming true.
yet they are still going strong with new members being recruited at a faster level than those who leave.

Do you think the Governing Body is having internal conflicts?
by stuckinamovement ini ask because the number of gb is lower than any time in history.
basically with the 7 (8 counting barr, is his head frozen?
) currently on,you have an average size elder body.

When are the last days spoken of in the scriptures?
by stuckinamovement ini have been doing a lot of thinking lately and have pretty much come to the conclusion that all of the prophecies concerning the last days were fulfilled in the 1st century.
that explanation is the only one that makes sense.
the generation of matt.

How does your congregation feel about the new song book?
by stuckinamovement ini stopped trying to sing the songs last meeting.
it felt like a combination of chanting and stepping on a cat.
it is terrible.

When you realized that it was all a lie.. how did you cope?
by stuckinamovement ini realized about a year ago after much lurking here, that the truth was in fact a lie.
it rocked me to my core to come to the understanding that everything that i have been taught, believed in and taught people myself was in fact not true.
when you are a born in like myself, the teachings of the wts become all you know.

WTS and the Corporate Model
by stuckinamovement ini came to the belated realization that the way the org is structured is simply based on the classic 1950's corporate model.
note the similarities.
they are just another failing business.. board of directors- governing body.
