  What would Watchtower Corporation(tm) do?

  by punkofnice in

  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.

  J-Man - We probably could do with a nice juicy bust-up right now to liven things up.

  It indeed seems all quiet on the western front.

  Even our spies aren't reporting anything to perk me up.

  In the latest JW_ORG cartoon video, young Caleb learns from his father that he does not have to be baptized to be a Jehovah's Witness

  in the latest jw_org cartoon caleb learns from his father that he can be a jehovah's witness without being baptized by becoming an 'unbaptized publisher'.. the video also refers to a potential meeting with the elders to discuss caleb becoming an 'unbaptized publisher'.. https://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/children/become-jehovahs-friend/activities/become-an-unbaptized-publisher/.

  My neighbour's views on J.W's

  by Phizzy in

  2. friends

  i came across a thread on a site for neighbours, which includes quite a wide area really, many square miles containing a lot of villages, and a couple of towns.

  it is so we can swap unwanted goods, inform each other of local crimes and scams etc, and we can vent.. there was a post that said the lady did not want this crap coming through her door, a letter and a tract from a j.w.

  i won't post the thread here , as at least one xjw is on there, but all the comments below her post were anti-jw !

  It was interesting how Non JWs expressed their real feelings about the Jobots after I left the filthy, disgusting cult.

  Suddenly, they were more genuine with me and not 'respecting' my idiotic point of view that was brainwashed in to me by the GB(tm) (PBUT).

  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.

  I know what I think these fake religionists would do. What about your thoughts? You may even know of some instances of this.

  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?

  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?

  Well, that's that, then.

  Not that I'm interested.
  

  I'm sorry for the loved ones that are hurt by this, though.

  To All Those Keen To Tell Us About Their Beliefs

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  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.
