no one can steal your thunder when you are the fucking storm!
A favorite quote of mine from The Godfather: Rival family mob-head Sollozzo is in a meeting negotiating a business matter with Vito Corleone. Sonny (Don Corleone's son) interrupts his father and says something rather revealing. After the meeting Don Corleone pulls his clumsy son aside and counsels him saying:
'Whatza matta with you...Never tell someone outside the family what you're thinking!'

Something else that may disqualify a JW from being allowed to attend a Kingdom Hall meeting is if he/she got the single dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine. WT is requiring at least 2 doses. I wonder how many JWs that affects!

This 'Kingdom Hall Meeting Pilot Program' has its own set of rules & restrictions:
1) No Bible study students allowed to attend
2) No interested outsiders allowed to attend
3) No unvacinated JW children allowed to attend
4) No unvacinated adult JWs allowed to attend
With these 'no nos' in place I suspect attendance, morale & the mood is going to be waaay low at these meetings!
What a joke!
do jehovah's witnesses interpret the bible properly?.
jehovah's witnesses see the bible as an organizational book which only the faithful and discreet slave (currently 8 men headquartered in warwick new york) can interpret properly.
the faithful slave was first appointed in brooklyn in 1919 and given the exclusive right and ability to understand and teach the bible properly.
Do JWs/WT interpret the Bible properly?
After over 50+ years of proudly proclaiming that Joel chapter 2 about the Locusts...saying that the Locusts paralleled the JWs in their preaching activity...at the 2019 AGM GB David Splane took a 180° about-face and stated that in fact the Locusts in Joel 2 are depicted as an enemy of God’s people. It took over 50 years for these knuckleheads to get it right!
This is just one recent example of way, way too many WT wrong Bible interpretations!
we just had our co visit a few weeks ago.
apparently, he was encouraging all who could to regular pioneer, to at least try it out for a year.
because of this, we had a few people in our hall become one.. so this weekend we were on zoom service, and the sister that was just appointed was talking about it.
The question is...how productive are JW Pioneers who put in all these many hours in the ministry at recruiting new converts? The answer is...Zero...0...nada...zilch!
I'm affiliated with a circuit that boasts some 400 to 500 Regular and Auxiliary Pioneers. For the past 5+ years the only ones getting baptized are born-in tiny bopper 'yang wans'!
i had an elder that was very nosey in my business.
i was so to the point and told him to screw off.
have any you have any stories like this?.
Yes...I've had many a request from the elders for an invite to sit down and talk...I can tell you from experience it feels soo therapeutic when everytime I simply say...No!
ii wonder if you are a jw how new media center goes along with this text.. 1 corinthians 3:6-9new international version.
6 i planted the seed,(a) apollos watered it, but god has been making it grow.
paulus planted.
Diogenesister:...are they really speaking their minds on this?...Tell me what they're saying JWgonebad please?
The following is what GB Morris states word for word at the 3:59 hour clip during the last talk of the AGM :
"...just to address the feelings that some friends have!" (concerns about Ramapo)
Then he proceeds to read a letter of concern from "some long time faithful brother"!
The gist and essence of that letter from this perturbed individual is as follows:
"Why, if we're soo close to the end, is there such a need for a new media center that has a completion date of several years...does this mean that Armageddon is being pushed back a number of years...that the end is not as immenent as we've been preaching?""
Why else would WT, during the 2021 AGM, address this belly-aching the rank & file are having about the Ramapo Media Center if it isn't really becoming a problem?

With all the gripe and objection WT's getting from the rank & file over building this Media Center...time is still on WT's side...so far they are in the grading and prepping of the land stage...they can turn the property into a theme park or just sell the land! :) :)
is it the annual meeting this weekend?
any insights on "new light" or new releases?.
The WTBTS has from now until January 2022 when they release the Annual Meeting content to the rank and file...one wonders if they'll attempt to doctor-up/edit Morris' blunder/boo-boo statements. They'd almost have to delete his entire talk because it's such a disaster through-out!
Who knows...he may wakeup his own kids to the 'Truth'! :) :)
