Reasons for leak and building stop story
by Gorbatchov ini have some feeling about the am2015 leak and the recent building stop story going arround.. it wouldn't surprise me that the information is a calculated leak.. - jw's are informal informed about the changes and adopt them informal.. - the building stop influences the concience of jw's for donating more money.. at the other hand, maybe there has occured a financial disaster for example they invested bilions in volkswagen.. gorby.

If the WBTS lost its charitable status globally that would definitely be its death knell. -

WT Failure To Engage In Charitable Works
by Joe Grundy ini never was a jw.. wtbts and its hydra-headed organisations world wide has charitable status.
yet, as far as i can see, it carries out little or no real charitable works.. last weekend my son and his friends did a 420 km cycle ride and mountain walk in aid of a local hospice at home charity.
they've raised (so far) 5,000. this charity makes a real difference.. this a video of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ijr7ipvrek&feature=youtu.be.

Good for them, I'm sure you're proud of your son. The world needs more of him.
As far as the Garbaging Body and their Washouttower go, they reckon getting you saved at armageddon IS charitable enough. We obviously know that's nonsense but good luck convincing them otherwise.

I believe it's unbelievably fake. The title is unbelievably logical by bOrg standards. -

If I could give you a thousand "likes" for this comment, I would!

At least in Franz's day the "deep" stuff was mangled up aplenty that it took a dozen reads and re-reads to figure out it was nonsense, and when you tried to explain why it was nonsense the average JW was left dizzy! Not any more! These days they just put sh_t on the plate and serve it up!
McDonald's is going to have a huge pile of job applications from secularly unqualified citizens. I'd love to see how an ex-Bethelite would handle foul mouth, abusive customers. Probably just tell them that Jehovah does not approve and quote a scripture only to be told to "shut the fuck up and give me my cheesburger, bitch". Welcome to the real world boys and girls. -

Excerpts from "The Book that Jesus Approved"
by clarity infunny how the catholics see jesus outline on a sheet or on a piece of toast & revere it, but jw's just throw away books that they say jesus looked at and accepted as the only truth !
bumping a very interesting thread from a few years back...... .

Thanks for bringing that thread up. I have read some of those points before elsewhere and have seen YouTube videos mentioning some of those points. But looking at that bullet point revision really gives a complete picture of how whacky JTR was. I dont't get how people can buy into prophecies. To me those seem like the writings of a mad man - period.

Are You A Thinker And A Lurker?
by konceptual99 inif you are a lurker then you are probably a thinker.
you will already be wondering about a number of aspects of jw doctrine and how they stack up against reason, logic and modern scientific evidence.
if so, then i appeal to you to meditate and reason on one implication arising from the latest news that the next publication will be a simplified version of an already simplified book.

Nice thread. Hope some lurkers read it and it strikes a chord .... -

A simple explanation for the financial changes
by JeffT inas i've mentioned from time to time, i'm a retired accountant.
i have tried many times to come up with some logical, sound business reason why the wtbs has made the big changes in its financial arrangements: taking the congregations savings, the monthly donations per congregation etc.
i finally came up with the answer.. the leadership of the watchtower society is batshit crazy.

Whatever the reasons, it sure is fun imagining the crew in a panic while the ship takes on water. -

I,would love to know what will go through the minds of my zombie mother and brother when they get to learn about all these sudden events. No doubt the two assholes will accept any explanation and prep their cyanide drinks with great enthusiasm. -

Brooklyn Layoffs and Halt to Kingdom Hall construction projects
by James Jack ina good source just just told me that at morning worship today that the governing body announced that a total of 1600 bethelites will be let get go and not transferred to warwich when the last property is sold in brooklyn and all kingdom hall building projects are on hold for at least a year so that all the focus will be on the preaching work.

I know this sounds mean, but I have a hard time feeling bad for people who've set themselves up to be screwed.
Not mean at all, you're quite correct. Besides, the Bethelites I knew in SA (and from what I understand, here in the US too) have always had a superiority complex. Screw them, let's see how superior they are in the secular work force with their theocratic qualificatioms. Have fun flipping burgers boys and girls. -

Officials in Remote Northern Canada Thank Jehovah’s Witnesses for Special Bible Education Campaign
by OrphanCrow inthis article was published by the wts on their website.. i find this jw practice of targeting vulnerable populations to be so disturbing.
the last thing that canadian aboriginal communities need is yet another institution that victimizes their members.. http://www.jw.org/en/news/releases/by-region/canada/inuit-bible-education-northern-canada/.

Truthseeker:
Staying out of their lives though I don't know?What I meant by that was not interfering with their lifestyle. If you are interacting with them in a way that does not conflict with their lives and genuinely help - as in a medical volunteer role - You have my full support.
