Just observing this family in our congregation. The parents are in the faith, and active. The children, are grown-up, but viciously opposed. The children smoke, are immoral, are disrespectful of what their parents do for them, yet their parents still care for them materially. The children were baptized, but they faded away along time ago. It doesn't matter how hard the parents try, their children still show disrespect for the JW faith.

I know that some JW's wouldn't show a caring attitude for such ungratefulness, but not this couple. This couple still are hopeful for their children, while they, themselves, even lack obedience towards WT policy on how to treat such ungrateful sons and daughters.

If you were dependent on such loving, giving parents, would you show a disrepectful attitude towards them and their religion. Are you better than this religion?

"So, how many tracts did you place last month during the campaign???"

by stuckinarut2 in

as we all know, the org now wants everyone to count the number of flimsy, one page tracts on every monthly report from now on.... so, what is the general buzz around the traps about how many the average witness is reported to have placed?.

(yes, it is a seriously stupid thing designed to keep the flock busy and also designed to measure their 'spirituality').

i need to fudge my report, and i havent got the foggiest clue what sort of numbers each witness has on average 'placed'......

You're missing out on all the fun, Sliding.

The Real Reason For No More Bookstudies.

by ctrwtf in

so i was just thinking about my days at wtf and driving out for book study when it dawned on me.. bethelites are given a stipend for travel based on nyc public transportation.

depending on how you pay let's just call it a $5.00 round trip.. if you drive your care you're also reimbursed for mileage at the standard irs rate.

let's round that down to .50 per mile.. if four bethelites get in a car and drive an average of 30 miles to the (former) bookstudy the society is spending 4x$5.00 for the stipend plus and additional $30.00 for mileage.

It was because Armaggedon was very close. It is so close right now. Watch out....it's almost here....it's ....it's....your getting warmer,,,warmer......

The Great Crowd Catch 22

by Perry in

just had a two hour conversation with my father.

he is insistent that he will be able to enter the kingdom of god as a member of the 'great crowd'.

he did agree that only the annointed are declared righteous.

Quarterback

You're right, Designs, Christianity does have many diverse opinions on Salvation, and Echatology. I don't condem any people who may view things differently from me. I get along with them.

Why do I beleive in a divine judgement and reward? Well I don't beleive in a reward, and a divine judgement in the many ways that Christianity has interpreted it.

I beleive in Divine Intervention, but, I don't have the details worked out yet.

I never did accept that teaching, along with other errors that are printed in the WT.

My view of salvation consists on what Jesus judges what is in your heart on that day of judgement.

Yes, well explain this one to me. We have an Anointed one in our congregation who is DF'd. He will be reinstated eventually. So is he declared righteous while in this state? He will be reintated, and then he will be partaking of the emblems again. But, those faithful other sheep have to wait 1,000 years to be declared righteous? What if we are wrong with the 1,000 years. What if it is a symbolic number? We were wrong on the length of a generation. Wrong on the length of a creative day.

newly baptized brothers (not sisters) because the wts needs men to reach out.

Why not recognize some of the dead wood that have been neglected thru the years. Great job, Blondie.
