Heads Up: If you are an older JW, WT has no further use for you!
by AndDontCallMeShirley inwt is retiring district overseers, has sent older jws serving at bethel packing despite years of faithful service, and as of june 1, 2014, has announced that any elder that has reached 80 years of age is no longer valued or wanted as a cobe.
in wt land it would appear that older people have little or no value, and wt sees no reason to use them in any meaningful capacity.
i wonder how this makes older ones feel after devoting their lives to wt's interests while shelving their own hopes and dreams?.

They want to get rid of the evidence .....
The old literature is destroyed.

Atlanta Int Convention 2014:The Big Party. Does this look like WT believes Armageddon is coming "soon"?
by AndDontCallMeShirley inhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=potrr2qxhue.
.. if armageddon is "imminent", why is wt focused on sight-seeing, entertainment, travel, etc.
instead of preaching and saving people??.

I guess with the older witnesses ...pun intended,
dying off, they have timed this facade just about right!
Who us? Not supposed to dance? Be content with just
any old roof over our heads? Not be showie? Huh, we
never said that! ...We never did that!
And all the witlesses just kind of give their heads a
shake and think,... hmmm I must have misunderstood,
oh yeah it was just me ....I got it all wrong! Oh yeah
I'm gonna get me some dance lessons .......see it is OK!

The dumest thing an elder ever said to me..
by new hope and happiness inconversation with an elder...i said " did you watch due south yesterday" and he said " ive got far more important things to do".
i mean that comment of his got me to thinking and wondering, and made me see he was missing out on living..and i think that comment was the straw that broke this boys faith, and started my i dont want to be a witness anymore.
kind of wierd how a simple question opened my eyes.. and now as i write this i am watching " the rebel" a 1950s western series, and its great and its even better my 9 year old is watching with me..and there is nothing more important than being happy.. .

In Death lies Glory
by BluePill2 ini was alone at the new branch construction site in ticuantepe (nicaragua).
everybody had taken off for a weekend assembly in the capital and it was my turn to have watchman duty and guard the site.
we had dogs and i only had to walk around the perimeters and check all the gates and entrances.. suddenly a young boy appeared at the main gate, breathless and visibly nervous.

BluePill ..... thank you for sharing your thoughts,
and the reality of life & death.
We naturally seem to favour the 'life' part.
As for how the wtbts uses it to corral the fearful
masses into their asylum you are right on!
All that whipping & prodding! Get to the mtgs
even if you are tired out or sick, extend yourself
you can rest LATER. It will be all good LATER!
Don't have a life now, the real one is LATER!
"Life........something that you can throw away, waste and use without concern?"

Wow, you sure hit the nail on the head with this BP!

Have you been Invalidated?
by Londo111 inhttp://www.eqi.org/invalid.htm.
of course, being in a cult and the shunning that comes from leaving it is invalidating.. but how many times have we heard "move on" or "get over it"?
that is a prime example of invalidation.. sometimes this forum, as well as others, can be a mixed bag of validation and invalidation..

we tend to underestimate the damage that social ostracism does.

Sparrow ..that's it, "feeling quite powerless"
Sometimes with the preshunning, there is a
feeling like.......if I confront this "cold shouldering",
maybe I am miss reading it & will feel like an idiot
if I am wrong.....so I let it go. Crazy making business!
