they don’t need to go on door to door anymore and there is no requirement for anything really.. taking meeting parts is all dead easy you could turn up on the day with zero preparation because it’s all in the meeting workbook.. quarterly elders meetings are just old men having a good old natter just like old men do down the pub.. congregations could be likened to pubs or bars these days just without the drinks, those come at other times.. no need for territory maps, these almost went away with covid letter writing now they are extremely slow getting finished as those who still go door to door only do ten mins.. you could even voice your questions these days about things the gb say and then just say “we can’t be dogmatic we just don’t know”.

i predict they will say this about 1914 soon..

Watchtower Bible & Tract Society of New York - Balance Sheets

by BoogerMan in

can anyone reveal the "mothership's" income/expenditure stats for any recent year?.

in the uk, charities must be transparent and publish their annual financial information, but in the u.s. it's not so clear..

Or they just can’t afford to pay back Caesar’s things to Caesar.

More and more of us suspect their business model is dependent on it.

Governing body

are the governing body really in charge or are they just a figurehead with the real power being behind the curtain .

hoser - “…They patted their backs about how Zoom was a blessing from Jehovah…”

”Everything we do is a blessing from God! Even the stuff we came up with ourselves!”

”Everything is proof we’re right! Even the stuff that contradicts the other stuff!”

”Everything bad you hear about us is false! Even the stuff that’s true!”

Wouldn’t have been quicker, cheaper, and easier just to take a new photo?

This smacks of overkill. 🤨

Who will be killed at Armageddon?

by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

if the current doctrine is that only baptised witnesses are going to survive and everyone else burns them what about this new update new light that some from before the flood and sodomites will be resurrected?.

but didn’t he mention at the agm something about there is no point jehovah killing them and then resurrecting them again?

it seems they are confused about what they teach and that’s why brother jackson joked about “is this what we used to believe or what we believe now?”.

ExBethelitenowPIMA - “…I don’t think the GB really thought this through.”

I’m not convinced the GB really think anything through.

Just had a thought…

by Vidiot in

i 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….

Vidiot

So, they’re not hostile towards former members simply because they’ve left…

…they feel threatened because they’re afraid that XJWs leaving might make the WT crumble.

Damn.
