  I think I know what the GB is doing

  read:.

  but if ever that evil slave says in his heart, ‘my master is delaying,’b 49 and he starts to beat his fellow slaves and to eat and drink with the confirmed drunkards.

  hmm... let's see is anyone on the governing body a strict master and a drunkard?

  the watchtower's nightmares have just began in france.

  on april the 9th the french senate passed a new "anti-cult" law that will basically strengthen the hands of miviludes, the french agency, the official anti-cult agency that is cracking down on dangerous cults.

  This bit jumped out at me…

  “…France has now become the first country as far as I can tell in Europe that recognises coercion to remain in a religion with the use of family pressure or application of punitive measures like disfellowshipping and shunning as a crime called ‘psychological subjection’ and in that way the open the door for hundreds or even thousands of exjws to take the Watchtower to court for having been subjected to such coercion…”

  Its funny…

  …the WTS always assumed that “Satan’s World” would try to destroy them with violent militant force.

  Getting sued, taxed, and legislated into oblivion never seems to have occurred to them.

  ThomasMore - “JWs never see these losses as indication of a systemic problem within their religion…”

  Not the hard-core loyalists, anyway.

  The rest, though?

  if it is illegal for minors to get married, enter into contracts, drink, and smoke, why is it legal for them to enter into lifelong religious contracts they can not break without family shunning and community ostracism????

  how religious shunning ruins lives.

  a form of institutionalized estrangement, shunning hurts health of the excluded.. updated march 27, 2024 |psychology today magazine.

  One small step closer to the Org losing its tax-exemption in yet another part of the world.

  Apostate lies are NOW fulfilling BIBLE PROPHECY 😅

  by raymond frantz in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the new study article 28 watchtower that has just been published on jw.org is about apostate lies and introduces new concepts in their effort to compat apostasy in the congregations.

  so despite the loosening of their recent disfellowshipping rules their fight against apostates is still raging hard.

  according to the foreword of this article, they will concentrate on :.

  ThomasMore - “I once heard some heavies at the Bible House say that listing the ‘lies’ of apostates would be to propagate them. I disagreed since it only made publishers curious as to what these ‘apostate lies’ were…”

  This.

  Clearly, none of ‘em have heard of the Barbara Streisand Effect.

  amazing new light in the latest morning worship by gary breaux.

  the gb "never lie or deceive us.

  we can have absolute trust in the governing body".. he then makes a very helpful point, so as to avoid being deceived and avoid lies.

  GB Helper Gary Breaux - “…It's of note that liars will often shroud or cover the lie in truth...”

  Well…

  …he’d know.

  Didn’t you know?

  Everything apostates say is, by default, a lie. Even the stuff that’s true.

  That being said, the Org has no interest in having the R&F “defend” themselves against anything XJWs say…

  …they haven’t in a long time.

  Prediction: no more changes for a long while

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i’ve noticed a pattern where things don’t go the way i expect them to go and/or whenever i realise there is a trend and, i mentally adjust for the idea that the trend will continue, the trend stops in its tracks.

  so on that basis, and given many people, including myself, and active jws, have been asking ‘what changes will the governing body make next?’ perhaps the (disappointing) answer is: ‘nothing much for a while to come’.

  maybe they’ve made the changes they want for now, and will wait a while and see how it’s received.

  ThomasMore - “…an unimpeachable source confided that they were spending a lot more than they could control…”

  Precisely the kind of strategic blunder made by someone who’s convinced of their own exclusive divine favor…

  ...i.e. you start thinking you’re invincible and destined to prevail, no matter what.

  Scully - “…That, my friends, is the look of a man who is simultaneously (and involuntarily) hiking his balls up into his body while holding back an entire colon's worth of diarrhea.”

  With the sheer deluge of GB-veneration he was spewing, I’d have thought it was a spontaneous and involuntary orgasm.

  How exciting.
