hello all.. i could use some help identifying the title of a wt book that i read back in the early 90's.
it was an older book when i read it.
i wish that i could recall more than i do.
Oh my Lord! I remember the book being released with the two couples on the stage discussing JW history. John and Eunice as with Tom and Lois. As a young child without filters I was fascinated by these "historical" insights.
I would love to read the revision of history again with a more critical and honest perspective. I was just blotting paper then for an interesting story.
did anyone else find the teen section on the meeting tonight massively cringeworthy?
i saw two kids who will be laughing stocks for life after their world wide exposure.
complete exploitation in my opinion, unforgivable..

last night the subject of simony reared its head.
there was a picture (artists impression) of the event resembling a bunch of clean-cut americans in fancy dress busy performing or observing miracles.
in the foreground offering a bribe to join in is simon.

Last night the subject of Simony reared its head. There was a picture (artists impression) of the event resembling a bunch of clean-cut Americans in fancy dress busy performing or observing miracles. In the foreground offering a bribe to join in is Simon. He is the only one looking like a jew as from the merchant of Venice.
If it ever happened, weren't they all jews? The picture looks like classic anti-semitism to me. What do you think?
I wish I could cut and paste the picture but I don't have the skills. If someone could, you may see my point.
you heard me correct, this is not a joke, and it is not april fools day!
the asl portion of the governing body updated #2 (march 2024) has been released a bit early and someone caught it.
summary: .
does the wt have a person/department/section tasked with compiling data and analysing it statistically.
or have they started doing something like that now that they are hiring external consultancies?.
i ask the question because i'm wondering if such studies and statistical analysis would show any link between the harshness of the disfellowshipping policy as it is applied and the dropout rate of people within the organisation who have just had enough.. in previous threads it has been pointed out that the old approach isn't effective any more.
There are more exes than current members now
Is this a substantiated fact or another speculation?
a slightly tongue in cheek, but also serious roundup of jw speak and why trying to reason with them is like trying to chip through concrete with a plastic spoon.. how many can you think of??.
elder: 'yes.
i read through the material you asked me to at your judicial meeting - you're right we're both in a cult!
Let's open the Kingdom Hall as a warm place for the community in this cold weather.

i think this article is absolutely on the money.
in any case, well worth a read.
I agree WS is an acquired taste, he is a "marmite" character. Not every point he made was entirely accurate. Personally, despite these hesitations I think this was a great, thought provoking piece with a lot of scoring blows.
i just did a google search to see if i could find out if my old kingdom hall was still there, in the town i grew up in.
google has generated questions.
the first question asked how much jehovah's witness elders get paid.
That's just click bait. Elders Paid? Never was, never will be.
