A parasite purposely sucks the life out of its host. JWS don't live, they exist. WTBTS sucks the life out of its adherents: They look towards a future life they can't even be sure they'll be good enough to obtain. Meanwhile, they do absolutely nothing with this life to show they "love their neighbors as themselves". On the contrary, they abhor their neighbors .... just waiting around for them to die.

8Watch Tower is NOT Parasitic
by berrygerry ini was pondering about how parasitic watch tower was and looked it up on wiki:.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/parasitism.
interestingly, watch tower is not parasitic, as a parasite does not destroy its host - the host sustains the parasite.. instead watch tower is a parasitoid, which "unlike a true parasite, however, it ultimately sterilizes or kills, and sometimes consumes, the host.".

Haven't seen it, I don't do punch cards. Volunteers don't "report", employees do. People who write things are publishers. People who peddling things written by others are simply distributers.
Lies, dayum lies, and statistics. Satan. GOD doesn't need reports, men do.

People are tired at those meetings and not really paying attention ... that's why everyone isn't supposed to be a speaker / teacher because they aren't any good at it, no matter how hard they may work at it. They're like bad story tellers that even small children would get disgusted with. Horrific, l deem them the daydream encouragers.
I've only heard maybe 5 speakers in 30 yrs who had the "gift of gab" so to speak. The rare quality in a JW to be able to talk to you (not at you) and make the subject matter interesting. I deem them, the conversationalists.
There's no Bible discussion at any meeting, simply prepared lectures. BORING!

Why ex-JW's so knowledgeable when it comes to the Bible?
by James Mixon inover the years here on this site i have found over half of the folks can hold their own with any minister.. why when we leave the borg we become proficient on any subject on the bible.. why did we go down that road?
my intention was to get close to jehovah (searching the bible), but i. guess i found lucifer.
i'am ask all the time, how did you go from a true believer to calling the bible a book.

Because once people beat feet they do something they never did as a JW, read the Bible (in context) by itself.

For JWs..Jesus, The Way, The Truth, The LIfe.
by somebody in· for what reasons does jesus have the formerly demonized man tell others about what jesus did?.
but jesus tells the man: “go home to your relatives, and report to them all the things jehovah has done for you and the mercy he has shown you.”—mark 5:19.. .
(mark 5:18-20) .

The Greek word used in Mark is "kurios" or Lord.
The Greek word used in Luke is "theos" or God.

A relative liked it so much, off to another one. "The end is neigh!" Die hards get happy with its almost over messages. Maybe a Saturday of finally sleeping in.

Just realized they changed maybe the most important scripture in the bible.
by Crazyguy ini just read the scripture then went and checked in thier older bible and it read the same so i check the greek interlinear and yes they changed john 3:16 .
the verse reads "all who believe in him should not perish but have everlasting life" the cult version says "exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life".. so not only do they say one must exercise faith meaning having to work for it but also they changed should not perish but having everlasting life to might not be destroyed again making a caveat where one does not exist.
just to add to the point verse 18 in both bibles says the one having faith is not judged, totally blowing up thier version of 16 but of course they change 18 to say exercising faith too but it makes little difference, since it says not judged.

Actually that was James not Paul. If you read it, you'll see he's talking about ones faith leading them to do good deeds towards others, like Christ. By his good deeds you can assess his faith.
He said prior that if you see someone without food or clothing and bid them good day without helping them out, your faith is dead. Do you give preference to rich over poor? He was talking about really helping others and not showing partiality. The ancient way of saying, "Talk is cheap".
JWs use that quote but it's out of context to the point of what's being said in the chapter.
I think the biggest problem is JWs don't know that "works" means actual deeds/actions shown towards others ... it's not job 'work', its not handing out literature.

It's official - the G.B. has replaced the Holy Spirit!
by The Searcher inthe watchtower november 2016, page 16, par.
"some may feel that they can interpret the bible on their own.
however, jesus has appointed the ‘faithful slave’ to be the only* channel for dispensing spiritual food.

Odd I thought the Bible was God's "channel" of communication. Those fellows in NY can't even get Biblical stuff right. So they are errant spirit mediums now?
And what's so hard to interpret? The only thing confusing JWs is WTBTS bullcrap dates and doom n gloom nonsense coming from a desperate uneducated headquarters full of Matrix machines afraid of losing their human batteries.
