It only proves the hold this cult has over its members. They are confident they will lose very few supporters regardless of the changes in their doctrine.....haven't they been all conditioned to believe even what may seem to make no sense to the rest of the world?

33Is anyone else completely astonished that they're drawing attention to 1914/2014 - 100 years
by jambon1 ini note that they're making reference to this in the upcoming convention programme.
someone has has dropped a bollock here, have they not?.
i mean, if i were a jw, i'd be sitting thinking of all the promises made and broken.

I've never seen this scripture quoted in the WT
by UnConfused in1 cor 10:27. if an unbeliever invites you and you want to go, eat whatever is set before you, making no inquiry on account of your conscience.. .
.
i suppose that would mean it's ok to go eat with unbelievers?.

I remember a time when JWs were asking their butchers about the ingredients in the making of sausages to make sure byproducts wasn't blood. In our house we didn't eat peperoni pizza for a long time...we even avoided certain brands of bread and ice cream that contained lecithin...The quoted scripture says there's no need for such an exercise.

They are incapable of being honest
by Pistoff inthe new york times has an article today about denominations (religions) that are selling off property, some of it prestigious.. this is a good read; what i noted is that in all cases but the watchtower, they say it is because they are downsizing, or the changes in the publishing industry, or needing less space.. the watchtower, though, just can't seem ever to tell the truth; they say it is because they needed more modern facilities.. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/16/us/denominations-downsizing-and-selling-assets-in-more-secular-era.html?emc=edit_th_20140316&nl=todaysheadlines&nlid=41433560&_r=0.

In the past you could read in the WT magazines how other religions were selling off their buildings and churches for lack of financial support while the JWs were flourishing under Jah's blessing. I guess the organization is not as candid when it comes to their current economic situation.

These instructions will be regarded as applicable at anytime for JWs. They reinforce the authority of the GBs who can declare at anytime that now is the time to rely on Jehovah for guidance even if it doesn't make sense in a human standpoint.

Sacred Heart...Canadiens should be a clue! Now my neighbors are mostly Leafs fans. When I started fading I was told I was no longer welcomed to the 3 games I played in for over a decade with my JW friends, including some from the Canadian bethel... So within a day I found 2 teams I could play with at the local arena. Better hockey and less drama...and the only condition is to pay my share of the cost for ice rental.

Hey FL P...I'm a Canadiens...once all the MS were called into a meeting with the elders and ordered to stop playing hockey at the arena. Their reason was that we shouldn't have organized recreation...that it should be random such as going to the ice rink at the park. We told them that at the park we had to play with worldly people who curse and play rough. At the arena we had control on what was going on. They agreed but said it shouldn't be every week and they didn't understand that we have to sign a contract with the arena to have the ice. They threatened to remove us as servants for devoting too much time to recreation. So I asked them if they watched TV. They all said yes...more than one hour a week? Of course...how is that any different than the weekly hockey game? What if I replaced hockey by taking knitting, spending every Friday night doing it? Forbidding hockey was easy for them because none of them played it...like forbidding knitting wouldn't affect us because none of us knit...Our game was at a decent time not to interfere with meetings or service and we had fathers and sons playing together. We included single parent kids...Still they didn't agree. The issue was discussed when the CO visited...little did they know that I often ran into him at the local NHL hockey games...end of the story. Today I am out of this cult and I no longer let anyone else dictate every aspects of how I should live my life...no one should ever submit to this type of slavery.

What is the purpose of Field Service??
by quellycatface inthe so used to say it was life saving work.i wasn't convinced.it was soul destroying in the area i lived.i didn't want to be so cynical as to think, it was just to gain converts, therefore more money but it certainly looks that way now..

As long as publisher feel the preaching work is important they will keep on donating money to support the WT. The bulk of the WT income surely doesn't come from the field, but from publishers donating. The moment field service loses its importance what work will donations support? Why would anyone donate?

Will be apostate...conditional love isn't love! If someone does good because he expects something in return, this isn't love. As soon as he realizes he's not getting what he expected he will drop you as a hot potato. There was an elder in my congregation who hugged and kissed me at every meeting. Since I left 4 years ago I haven't seen or heard from him except for a lame attempt of a shepherding call. So STADD's experience doesn't surprises me and I'm so sorry that he and his wife went through this ordeal with no real support and genuine love from the congregation. Having a district convention is a lame excuse not to attend someone's funeral...unless the deceased means nothing to you.
