I should be shocked, and yet I'm not. Great to see it's actually in print. Hypocrisy indeed.
Gotta love it!
Thanks for that irondork!

the watchtower society openly acknowledges that constant doctrinal changes are causing many to abandon their religion.
oh irony, you're always there for me!.
[w75 6/1 millions have left the churches - should you?

I'm happy to provide my services. I'll see what else I can encourage.
...and they're clearly in the mood for pushing it on youtube.. .

what is it with all these random youtube channels, each showing polished and highly-produced videos.
Two people in the video are definitely currently at Bethel. I recognize and know them personally.
A third one used to be at Bethel and perhaps still is.
That in itself confirms to me that the Society is behind it (aside from the message at the end).

i've been browsing here for some time now and i've read the erroneous arguments supporting 587, the petty feelings over the un, blah blah blah.
this is a community of disgruntled people telling each other what they want to hear.
you've all essentially created your own truth, tickling your own ears.
Am I too late to chime in? If not, then...

Thank you blondie.
After reading this article, there is only one way to describe the WTBTS.....
because i was raised a witness, i don't think i was "uncomfortable" knocking on strangers' doors.
(weirdo).. but as i got older, i simply didn't want to bother anyone so i was at there door for no more than 30 seconds.
at the end i hated being there..
As far as the ministry, I never really liked it. I am not a born in, but close enough to feel like one.
I regular pioneered 3 different times, all the while believing that the more I involved myself in the ministry, the more I would grow to love it. I even tried to convince others of that yet never really believed it. I realize now I was just parroting what I heard from the WTBTS because that never happened. My love for it never grew. I always felt like a bother.
I also, while I don't mind dressing up for other occasions, hated doing it for service. I hated, both as a kid and and as an adult, leaving my house and having my neighbors see me dressed up on a Saturday morning. It drew undue attention to me and I couldn't stand when I was asked why I was dressed up.
It was hard to stop going out in the ministry though because I feared what others in the hall would think. But thankfully, I grew a pair and haven't looked back in just about a year already.
Damn how I love my weekends! Why the hillbilly did I wait so long to take them back for myself?
