what would watchtower corporation(tm) do in compromise of their 'north korean style rules' if by publicly removing them, they could get more money and power?.
if each governing body(tm) member (pee be upon them), were offered a few million quid/bucks each to rescind the barbaric 'no whole blood' rule?.
i know what i think these fake religionists would do.
Mousy - Once you get to those levels of the org (anyone appointed to RBC/circuit or other multi-congregation work can attest to this) there are a ton of things you have to see through that no sane person could honestly accept if they are true God-fearing Christians.
I can attest to this. That's why I'm no longer a Jobot.
Beth's Serum - "sunk cost fallacy"
Good one.
FM - Yep. Nothing more to say.
You do have a wry sense of humour.

Mousy - There is a fine balance in dictatorships.
This is a valid observation.
J-man - I think many of the opponents of JWs (whether exJWs themselves or not) underestimate this factor, perhaps because they assume that because they no longer believe the theology (and possibly never did), then none of the leadership do either.
Yes. I actually think that could be my thoughts. I don't think the GB(TM) (PBUT), believe their own lies and corrupt filth.
But what if they do.
I respect your POV.

wt 2021 october p.20 "in contrast, true worshippers of jehovah have no clergy.
although we respect those who are taking the lead, we accept jesus’ clear teaching: “all of you are brothers.”".
ijbq article 92 point 6: in contrast, true worshippers of jehovah have no clergy.
If the Governing Body (TM) (Pee be upon them), could gain money if they declared they had a Clergy, what do you think they'd say?
a "waking up", but still a member, jehovah's witness acquaintance of mine from eastern europe wrote the following lines:.
"i count among the main sins of the watchtower society:.
1. concealment.
aqw - I don't wish to mean but your posts are way too long.
If you can keep it short and sweet, I'd read them.
“a spokesperson from dorset coroner's office told the bbc that due to the nature of his death there would be no inquest.
no further details were given on cause of death by the coroner.” https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-65633872.
no "further" details were given?
No further details were given on cause of death by the coroner
Well, that's that, then.
Not that I'm interested.
I'm sorry for the loved ones that are hurt by this, though.
we seem to have had an influx of religiots - the people who want to tell us all about how we / the wts / whoever are wrong, wrong, wrong about everything and how right they are.
they obviously have special insight, or voices (probably voices, right?
) telling them the real truth.. as proof, there is inevitably a wall of random scripture references and quotes.. sorry, but we're not here for that.
Longy - extremely long posts that I doubt anybody attempted to read.
Yes. As a geezer I worked with used to say, 'less is more'.
Short and sweet, bite sized chunks.
do you remember the jw.org book of revelation and how many times we had to study it?
in retrospect, all those hours turned out to be for nothing, the explanation of the prophecies is now completely outdated..
vid - Hell, if you’re creative enough, you could probably find a “Biblical” justification for pogo-sticking naked under a full moon.
I do that anyway. I don't need authority from the Bible.
The Police don't like it though.

Revelation is a very weird book in the Bible.
Make of it what you will but I reckon you can prove pink unicorns are coming out of Sunak's bum by using out of context scriptures.
It's all about how you can con people out of their money.

Droppy - maybe a number-of-character limit on posts would curb what appears to be cutting and pasting of book-length comments
Good diarrea.
I admit I never read long posts. Life's too short!
