  I wonder how fast they’d fold if they lost their tax-exemption.

  The Jehovah's Witness religion has ''Jumped the Shark''

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  what does jump the shark mean?.

  the phrase “jump the shark” is a term in pop culture that originated from the tv show “happy days” and is used to describe a decline in quality.

  it refers to the moment when a tv show or other product has reached its peak and starts to decline in quality.

  Shaking Down Satan - WT Sues Norway

  by Sea Breeze in

  2. scandals

  i wonder how many witnesses are aware that the wt and their team of lawyers are currently suing the government of norway for millions of dollars?

  i thought that the wt taught that all the governments were run by satan.

  when i was a witness, this would have really bothered me.

  Sea Breeze - “…The reason that JW kids get thrown under the bus is because of the near fever pitch hysteria that WT puts its members through regarding Armageddon. Since I was a little kid, my parents believed that Armageddon and mass killing and destruction could break out at any moment. As a result of this fear, all kinds of insane parenting seems ok if it will help save someone from being destroyed at Armageddon. This is the real reason for JW mental and emotional abuse of children: Hysterical Fear.”

  Hard to argue with.

  ”Do you want to be destroyed at Armageddon???” was a well-worn phrase I heard growing up. Fortunately, my Dad mellowed out as he and I both got older.

  Re. your experience…

  …I always scratched my head over parents who tried to essentially beat righteousness into their kids and then were surprised the kids left “The Truth” the moment they were able.

  I’d be like, “The fuck did you think was gonna happen?”

  Has The Interpretation of the Beast Changed?

  by NotFormer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my understanding* is that the un is supposed to be the wild beast of revelation.

  the un only came into being after wwii, so what was the beast before the new light came about?

  i can't see a speculative organisation like the wt not having an interpretation of the beast before the un came into being.

  ThomasMore - “…If it did not come from Fred Franz, it was the wrong channel…”

  Ironic, considering the guy spent his twilight years shuffling around Bethel dressed like Herb Tarleck, muttering to his shoes.

  Credit where credit’s due, though… in his prime, the man had some mad writing skills.

  Like I’ve been saying for years now…

  …it’s looking more and more like the Org’s business model - and therefore, financial sustainability - is virtually dependent on its tax-exemption (or in this case, subsidies).

  As they’re losing it country by country.

  ThomasMore - “…suspect that they feel the need to lighten up on the UN…”

  Yeah, ‘specially since in reality, it’s a lot less like Darth Sidious’ Galactic Empire, and a lot more like Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory.

  If they have any sense, the GB is paranoid AF about how many closeted apostates (“aclostates”?) are sneaking around undetected at Warwick.

  Wouldn’t it be a kick if they started looking suspiciously at each other???
