does the watchtower/jw organization regard its readers & jws as fools and are they secretly laughing at them?
for some examples consider the following.. the wt literature has many times used odd language where they say one thing but word it in such a way as to suggest something else.
they have said that a number of jws drew incorrect expectations about a number of things, including about 1914 and 1975, though it was the wt itself which proclaimed and taught those expectations in the wt's literature to jws.

As with all such questions, we may never truly know.
They probably don't have enough humanity in them to have emotions like that.
They only want money, power and rock star status for themselves. They are beyond caring about anyone else other than themselves because they are frauds.
I had doubts on and off but nothing major.
than I became an Elder and the way the show was run disturbed me.
In a 'judicial(tm)' we prayed over a decision then, apparently, got God's own inerrant decision. Why were 7 days given for appeal? Was God wrong. Oh, and by the way, even in those meetings after we prayed and read scriptures, never once did I feel inspired or that God was infusing me with his will. I guess there is no God after all!
i was appointed as a regular pioneer in a certain congregation.
in that congregation, a very obese male pioneer seduced a nice looking married pioneer sister who had two teenage sons.
her husband was a ms. both were df'd.
Nothing 'still' troubles me.
I've put it all behind me. Except a little indulgence on this site from time to time.
looking for a laugh.... listen to this gal's response to tony's encouragement to donate.. https://youtu.be/mvjv__r7xaw.
Nice fro buns. Reminds me of my favourite niece.
Tomo the turd sounds drunk as a bleedin' newt.
No wonder he needs money, he needs to get Brahms and Liszt all the time.
Dirty pervert.
The term 'Elder' just gives them validation that they're in the correct religion. It's all arbitrary nonsense. The whole thing is a fiction made up by deluded mental cases.
I was a good Elder though. I wasn't liked because I wanted to actually help the 'flock' despite the real need for money over love. I was naive beyond words.
I wouldn't piss in a Governing body's ear if their brain was on fire. I learned too late.
Hey ho.
just to put it out there, the whole gender pronouns idea being pushed by the lgbtq+ minorities is just a way to try to hide the sin of homosexuality.
if you can void people talking about your true sexual identity then it seems there is no sin anymore if two they or them of the same sex are together.
example of the coverup: ("i don't identify as either gender"), so the kids i'm raising in a lesbian relationship need not speak of me as a mom or any other female term and we all don't have to feel any stigma attached to the true terms so, any shame we might feel is hidden anyway.
I don't know about homosexuality being a sin, but I do know this.
It would be weird if I called someone by a pronoun to their face.
It's just a load of hogwash fomented by a strange minority.
we do know that many of them are masters of deception!
can you give us some examples?
i notice that some worldly people think jw are very honest people but we know better than that!
Are we talking 'rank and file' or 'GB' here?
The rank and file are so brainwashed they probably have no idea what they're actually espousing.
The GB on the other hand are scamming filth. they know they are too, and they don't care.
just a few years ago, any man that slapped a women was considered a piece of shit.
today people are are paying and cheering to see a man knocking the shit out of a woman.
what feminists, social warriors, and gender recognition fighters don't realized is that their actions are actually causing the world to revert back to the days when the world treated women as property, second class species, with no rights whatsoever, whose only value was a sex instrument for the male species.
so, i was thinking about which are my favorite films of the 21st century.. there are lots of 21st century films i haven't seen and want to see.. anyhoo, i came up with these .... the nightingale (2018).
the lighthouse (2019).
the martian (2015).
Watchmen (Not the crappy series - Alan Moore should sue).
I quite like the remake of Time Machine. Some odd inconsistencies but a good bit of fun.
Karate Kid with Jackie Chan is fun. Rather silly from a reality standpoint but a bit of fun. Despite being called Karate Kid, it's about Kung Fu.
My all time fave film is from 1941 and is a wartime propaganda-ish film, but a cosy watch, The Ghost Train with Arthur Askey who just gets on your nerves. From a play by Arnold (Dad's Army). Ridley.
what do you think of this?
does it make sense?
any examples either way?.
LUHE - yeah, Critical Drinker
He's very on the ball and ends up with a Glaswegian, 'noooow goo aweee, nooooow!'
There are a few YouPubers that I view but not all of them I warm to. Alex Bellfield seems genuine but I can't help feeling he's not all he seems. He exposes a lot of Police corruption and defecates on the BBC a lot......but there's something that I can't quite put my finger on that seems to leave a bad taste with me.
Bowlestrek is well worth a squint.
