i believe today's witnesses lack zeal, resolve, "love" of the "truth"......just to name a few things.. years ago, witnesses were excited to knock on doors and tell people they were gonna die if they didn't accept paradise.. now, when you see jws in service, they all look zombied out.. it's a slowly dying religion that will last probably forever like an ancient rotted out tree..
Very good thread...
I think one of the main differences is that the rank and file witnesses dont have as much 'spunk' as the older witnesses (some who are now elderly and who have passed on) had. Its seems much more legalistic and impersonal nowadays. And I can never stay awoke during a convention.
just have enough time to let you know our donut shop is open now.
after one week of training in pittsburg and one week of training at our new store we are now up and running.
i did a soft opening with little fan fare.
Good luck with your donut shop!
i stole the idea from a fb friend.
just like occupy wallstreet (and the spread to various cities), imagine people without a single voice picketing wt at brooklyn and having warming barrels loaded with burning watchtower literature.
if you did, what would your sign say?
It sounds like a cool idea, but I do agree with the above poster.
But somebody needs to occupy their asses!!!!
i am looking for confirmation on the following:.
jws are now being individually assigned to smaller territories, and they are told to consistently work that same territory over & over again.
the reason is that the watchtower wants the jws to build relationships with the people in that area.
It wouldnt surprise me at all. Theres an active J-dub down the street from my house, and she's constantly witnesses to people in my area. I was actually thinking about doing a little 'witnessing' of my own. More like informing people on how to stop Jehovah's Witnesses.
have anyone of you read, the absolutly jaw dropping paragraph in this article about a women who was hit by her husband?
its in page 25 of the 2/15/12 wt study edition (i read the dumbed down version).. .
if there was any question, that the watchtowers stance is for wives to simply take it when their husbands abuse them, this makes it crystal clear.. who the hell is scanning these things before they go to print?
Blaming the victim . Its what the watchtower™ does best!
As long as they keep printing articles like this, I'm gonna keep doing my youtube videos.
j-ex-w. aka cori passed away this past january.
i just found out now.
i met her here and shared some time a few years ago.
So sorry to hear about this...too sad....I HATE what this so-called organization does to people.
former jehovah's witness mark palo featured on free minds, who claims when he was a young boy was raped at the world headquarters of jehovah's witnesses by a governing body member named leo greenlees and says his life has been adversely affected by the watchtower org.. he has lost most of his family, over indulged with alcohol and has faced unrelentless problems both physically and emotionally.. marks therapist is willing to speak up in a court of law and expose the evils of the watchtower society.. mark will be our guest in the 7 pm to 9 pm hours.. .
the first amendment (freedom of religion) has always been on the watchtowers side in stopping class action lawsuits against them but a stunning new twist has emerged that may open up the flood gates for scores of new lawsuits.. if your life has been turned upside down by the watchtower organization and would like to participate in and perhaps be compensated for the life altering damage caused to you then dial into the six screens of the watchtower conference call sat.

I'll have to take a listen tomorrow inbetween cooking and cleaning and getting ready for work.
trying to figure out why..this is in reference to the small boy that was abducted and killed today.
why doe they think it is their duty to turn it into a witness..this person usually posts about how great things were when she was a teen and hanging out and how she wishes she could go back to those fun times.. posts various you tubes with oldies and once in a great while she breaks from it all and posts how great jehovah is..then she goes back to all her worldly facebook friends..i really can't stomach hypocrites!.
quote:.
SMH...seeing everyone die at the big A will be a sense of satisfaction to the witnesses. Justice served those non-believers!
I'm sorry about the kid dying.
a very reliable friend told me this: the bro was commenting on what was "unacceptable" conduct in the bedroom between married persons.
needless to say, he had everyone's attention.
he went on to say "we must avoid perversions such as oral and annual sex.
Either way, if you die...you'll just wake up...
I dont think that happens...lol
a series of events led up to an arugment with my parents last night.
my mom and dad told me that they found my videos that i was doing on youtube, and they told me that i was an apostate.
they said that they would help me if it was an emergency, but other then that, they didnt want anything to do with me.
Ah, thank you guys...its a new beginning. A rebirth.
They want me to a brainwashed Jehovah-town zombie like them...and it aint happening.
I aint going back to Jehovah-town Jeherber town...Jehobo town, whatever you want to call it, Jehova-clause.
