87Lines you would never hear from a Jehovah's Witness
by Ron.W. ina 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!

Just had a thought…
by Vidiot ini been reading quite a few experiences on reddit lately, and their seems to be a common theme coming up….
…dialed-up-to-eleven shunning of xjws by their witness relatives.. it reminds me of back in the day, listening to some of the over-the-top vitriol displayed by hard-core loyalists when the topic of evolution or apostates came up….
…i was gobsmacked when i finally realized these guys weren’t offended and indignant because they thought it was lies….

Seriously though…
…even though there’s always something interesting going on at the XJW Reddit, I’ve never felt an overwhelming urge to sign up.
We may be a little dysfunctional here, but that place is a fucking zoo.

redsetter2 - “One new Watchtower and one new Awake each year now, with some reprints in between.”
Hmph.
Makes it sound like the “Writing Dept.” is basically reduced to a couple of (newly-neckbearded) twentyish-year-old remote workers, operating out of their mom’s basement.

Listener - “…What they are saying is that one Committee, headed by some of the Governing Body members has approved the request made by another Committee headed by some members of the Governing Body… This means that neither their FDS or Governing Body, as a whole, made this decision.”

Hey red, welcome (back). I had no idea you’d been here before, but I’m not surprised.
I actually linked to your recent Reddit thread a couple days ago, and a few of us talked about it here (starting 6th post down):

I’ve said this before, but I have a really hard time imagining the Org succeeding at any attempts at authentic mainstream reform.
All the things that they hold up as “proof” of God’s exclusive favor would be left by the wayside one by one.
The ones that already want to leave will go even more readily…
…and the ones that would otherwise want to stay will have lost any real incentive to.
Not that having to shut down due to insolvency would feel any better, but jeezus.

DesirousOfChange - “…The blood issue is almost already a ‘non-issue’ as a result of the Bulgarian compromise in the late 1990's…”
The Bulgaria thing wasn’t a compromise.
It was loopholed weasel-wording.
