  Would Witnesses drink "the cool-aid" if instructed to by the Governing body?

  by Witness 007 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my anionted mum always said she's "willing to die for the truth like the brothers in the concentration camps".....how many witnesses would do this, like the "heavens gate" suicide group or the tokyo cult that tried to start armagedon with subway gas attacks or even the 9/11 terrorists?.

  the brothers in the camps in world war 2 were told by rutherford this is armagedon.

  so they thought a quick death and then "poof"...i'm in paradise.. .

  It's been a year now... (Yay me.)

  by VampireDCLXV in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i guess that my one year anniversary here has come.. i've made lots of friends... and perhaps a few enemies.. i've made people laugh... i've pissed people off.... i've made people think... i've made people cringe.... i've moved ahead in some areas of life... still stuck in some others.... i've had a lot of fun... i've had some tense moments and tears.... i've been able to make sense to people... spoke utter nonsense at other times.... to my 'fans' here: thanks for the support and having my back... .

  to people who hate my guts: go ahead... take your best shot... .

  either way, i win.

  were you made to feel guilty if you missed a meeting / service ?

  by man in black in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  going along with the last thread ( great subject matter) .

  i'm sort of hitching along here.. we had a bookstudy at our home for several years, every week we were prepared, and we handled service arraingements every saturday morning, even with two young children.. one saturday morning, ( in the middle of winter) one son had a bad cold, and our furnace konked out around 8:15 am.. i was running around trying to get ready for service, calling a repair man, and help my wife get ready for service.. the group comes in at 9:00, and i'm on the phone talking to the repair man who wants to come out between 10-2.. so i'm not going out this morning, and i'm staying home with my sick son, wife and son #2 are going out in service.. conductor comes downstairs and looks at the furnace ( he is a school teacher, no mechanical experience at all, check out my earlier thread video under friends, page 5827 titled "elder makes a video,,,, this is the same guy ) and gives me the classic guilt trip because i'm not going out in service for at least an hour this morning.. i remember thinking just who is this guy, trying to make me feel bad because my family is #1, service is not my focus today.. after all of these years, i cannot help but think of this comment now :.

  This convention blows

  by Anony Mous in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  seriously, half day in (already had an argument with the wife this morning about individuality in the organization in which she conceded that a lot of it is based on looks) and this is already getting on my nerves.

  i'll post a rebuttal based on my annotations later in the week but one thing i got to get off my mind: saying the feminist movement (women going to work instead of staying home) and the diversity laws (allowing for homosexuality - but also religious freedom, racial discrimination etc.

  ) caused a lot of the problems in our world right from the stage.. there are less people here than last year - about 500 less..

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the last meeting i attended was the memorial last year.

  i haven't stepped foot in a kh since then.

  since i didn't go to the memorial today, i'm considering it my one year anniversary of snapping out of my stupidity and regaining my freedom.
