check it out.
literally the message is if you don't pay attention at the meetings you could die.
how insane, i feel like this must wake some people up..
I'm just seeing this.
Speechless.
The anger that wells up in me toward an 'organization' that damages innocent children.
"Listen to Brother I'm Winging This Talk" or you risk being drowned.
How these sick F**KS survive is the most shocking thing of all......
have you all read this weeks study article?.
oh my word it is full of fear inducing tactics....doom and gloom outlooks.... anxiety inducing methods to develop absolute control over witnesses and cripple them in any attempt to think for themselves!.
(notice i am saying "themselves" rather than "ourselves"?!
Why is the 'brother' taking the lead/reading showing that he is overweight??
The Watchtower has claimed fat people will be killed at Armageddon LOL

cut the cord.
sever all ties.
start new.. and she's right.
Just. Walk. Away.
If ANYONE follows......tell them you consider it a threat and are contacting the police.
Fight through the damage they have done to your brain and..... just....walk.....away.
why do the jehovah's witnesses feel that paradise earth is a literal place?.
i posted this question in yahoo answers if anyone is interested: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20150125163818aatmbtr.
why believe poetic promised land prophecy is to be taken literally, but scriptures saying the earth will end must be taken figuratively?
To the OP......
My advice: Keep it simple. These people aren't taught to think. This is what I do:
"Please show me where the Son of God and our King, Jesus Christ spoke to anyone about living forever on a paradise earth"
Oddly, it doesn't dawn on JW's that Jesus NEVER TAUGHT IT ANYWHERE......... keep in mind they believe billions will be resurrected and/or survive the End to live on a paradise earth..........but Jesus mentions it NOWHERE????

i have updated the article at memorial partakers with the figures released for 2014. no surprises here, it has risen yet again, this time by 6% over last year, and is now 14,121.. .
.
The funniest thing about all of this?
They all just accept it and move forward......as if they haven't been preaching the "last days" for over a century....... like 'oops....oh well, so we told people to get baptized or die.....no big deal......what's for lunch?"
i have noticed an apparently increasing number of men who are not interested in becoming ministerial servants or elders.
i also know of some that have voluntarily stepped down (which is my case) for no obvious solid reason.. i remember, during my teenage years or even during my twenties, the brothers were always looking forward to being appointed... although many still do, i have noticed there are many others with whom you do not know what the deal is.. since there is no freedom of speech within the organization, we remain in the dark about the motives and desires of everybody else.
i attend a congregation with only two ministerial servants, while it is full of men who do not seem to be willing to do more.. it is hard to tell exactly what is going on, since honesty is not possible while you are inside, but i am starting to think that more and more are becoming disillusioned.... .
As an ex elder used at every level of the organization.....let me assure you, any man that actually wanted to be an elder or MS should seek therapy.
It is a terrible, thankless job.
Wow.....I'm seriously shocked they still use that......filled with 'old light'.......LOL, probably don't realize it
I've been out for a few years now.................do they still use this book?
I hope so....because it is a mess.
